It’s here! The Maya Banks dareling room video

Aug
2011

Some of you may remember that last summer, I made a little low-budget video for my Stud Club series, using toys from my children’s bedroom. The response to the video was great, and I had so much fun making it.

So last March, as part of Operation Auction, I offered up a similar homemade book video as an auction item. A whole slew of kindly bloggers pledged to post the winner’s video, thus sweetening the deal and driving up the bidding.

The amazing Maya Banks was the generous top bidder, and when she told me what she had in mind…oh, it made me so happy. This video was a truly family project, with the darelings working props and Mr. Dare providing the special effects. I hope you enjoy it! And if you do, please feel free to tweet, link, embed, and Facebook it to your heart’s content. 😉

I also want to say, one of the best parts of the experience was getting to read In Bed with a Highlander early. It was fabulous. Took me straight back to my formative years as a romance reader, falling in love with Julie Garwood’s Scots. If you like a passionate, tender read with an endearing heroine and strong Highlander hero, be sure to pick this one up on August 30.

Oh, I giggled and guffawed the whole way through!

The toys were great although the guys didn’t look like Paul Marron (on all three covers) and the Barbies didn’t resemble Ewa da Cruz (on two covers).

What a fun, fun book video!

The home-made kilts and convent habits are great! Terrific sound effects as well. Another winner of a video; congratulations to all the Darelings.

I was in the same boat as infinitieh, giggling the whole way through.
Now I have a question! What in the heck is a trew??
Great job everyone for a wonderful video.
