It’s out everybody! Oh my God, I couldn’t be more thrilled that Hatsept Heat, the 3rd book in the Vampire Council of Ethics hit the cyber shelves yesterday from Samhain!

They chatted amicably but Kenoe didn’t miss the occasional frown whenever he let his guard down long enough for his anxiety, though slight, to creep down the bond. Bottom line—he had no desire to see the you’re-crazy-as-a-loon skepticism in her eyes when he told her what he was. God knew she wouldn’t believe him.

And he was less than enthusiastic about her reaction to the fact that he, Mr. Law Enforcement, as she called him, was investigating her closest relative for something that had nothing to do with honest vamps, and everything to do with Dr. Jekyll humans.

Not to mention the possibility of her flat-out rejecting him.

Ruthlessly squashing down all concern, he filled his mind with lighter thoughts. Actually just thinking on what a fabulous dinner she’d prepared for him, what a kind and considerate woman she was, a woman so sweet yet with an edge sharp enough to cut himself on. The perfect alpha. His perfect alpha.

And she’d prepared a dessert of strawberries covered with brown sugar syrup, laced with lemon zest. Oh yeah, she was a keeper. He only hoped she would feel the same when he told her…

We made it safely to Florida and we are having a ball! The Marriott Grand Vista is a pretty nice place. The surrounding area is also pretty neat. Nothing spectacular, as it’s a typical city, but the weather is really something. I love the rain and humidity, now if it was just a bit cooler I’d be in heaven!

We’ve been eating like crazy! Lord, I just know I’m going to have to spend more time at the gym when I get back to keep my butt from heading too far South without the rest of me. Geesh!

TJ On A Tangent went out right before I left so hopefully you’re enjoying it - if you aren’t a subscriber to the newsletter, you can sign up any time. This issue contains an excerpt from my new book, CARAMEL KISSES, that was just sold to EC. ToT subscribers get to see it first, but I’ll put it up on the Sneak Peek page after I get back from vacation.

Talk to ya’ll later!
