I Got My Wish

for a coating of snow for Christmas that is. The beautiful white stuff covered everything in sight earlier today. Another show of the white flakes is due to hit Sunday. Enough with the weather. Are you ready for that exciting news I have to share? Here goes:

Harlequin offered to buy the mass-market reprint rights to my novel, A Dangerous Woman for their World Wide Mystery line. A wonderful Christmas present don't you think? I can't wait for this edition of the book. I don't have a publication date yet. But you can be sure I'll share as soon as I do.

Wishing all a wonderful holiday season.

Until Next Time...Debra

HAPPY HOLIDAYS

The shopping is finished, gifts almost wrapped. Next up is the baking and cooking. Then all that's needed is a coating of snow for the big day.

Be back with you soon with that news I have to share. Debra

Exciting News

I received news the other day that still has me wondering if it's real. I know it is, but until the deal is closed I'm not celebrating too much. All I can say for now is I will have exciting news to share soon. So stay tuned. Yes, this has to do with one of my books.

On a personal note, I'm excited about some recent contacts. Must be something in the air because I've had three old friends I haven't spoken to in years contact me. These are friends from way back in high school and that was a long, long time ago.

For now, I'm going to enjoy the exciting news and old friends because you never know what tomorrow might bring.

Until Next Time...Debra

My return, finally

Wow, I can't believe I haven't posted since late June. Not good for my readers so I do apologize. It was a busy summer and fall is about as hectic.

Did I tell you I'm working on a new book. It's the first in a new series. I'm really excited about it. I love the characters. Though I get a bit tired of the sleepless nights a few are causing me.

I'm also trying to finish the third book in my Fay Cunningham Mystery Series. This book has some real big surprises. I must warn that it's a lot darker than A DANGEROUS WOMAN and DEADLY ARROWS.

I'll post a brief synopsis and possible excerpt of both soon.

Until Next Time...Debra

Video-Dangerous Bedfellows

Dangerous Bedfellows-Released

Hurray! Dangerous Bedfellows is now available as an e-book. A combination of terror and excitement is settling in. Will readers like it? Will they hate it? Will they get it? Now you see why the emotional roller coaster. Anyway, for those eager to give the book a shot, just give a click here.

Dangerous Bedfellows-Cover

I'm thrilled with the cover for my upcoming release Dangerous Bedfellows.

The e-book will be available for purchase soon. So all interested, please keep checking back.

Here's an unedited version of the opening paragraph:

Jackie's gaze wandered from headstones to somber faces. But not to the casket that held the body of her only true friend Desmond Sinclair. She recognized all of the people standing around her. Except for...

A longer excerpt is posted here.

New Contract-New Book

I'm back with great news. I just signed a contract for a new book. Dangerous Bedfellows will be available soon as an e-book. This book is a stand alone and quite different from my Fay Cunningham series. Yes, there's mystery and murder. But Jackie, my main character isn't anything at all like Fay. She's a much darker character. I'm not even sure readers will like her. I guess you'll need to read the book and let me know.

Dangerous Bedfellows is the disturbing and rewarding story of Jackie. Damaged goods. That's one way to describe Ms. Bertoni. Survivor is another after the traumatic childhood she endured at the hands of her father in Italy. With the help of the American filmmaker her boyfriend sold her to for a week of sexual pleasure, she is able to fulfill her lifelong dream to escape to America. Life is good to her in the land of the free. She becomes a successful movie producer. Sixteen years slip by before the big betrayal when Jackie knows she'll never be free-never whole-able to trust another man until she gets even with the three who stole her life.

Sound interesting? To those who answered yes, check back often for the release date and purchase information. I promise it will be soon.

Until Next Time...Debra
