COMING MARCH 30, 2010 |
Spring is officially here, but it’s 20 degrees outside. The wind chill factor takes the temperature into the teens! Brrr. Instead of being outside and planting the begonias, inpatients, petunias, and verbenas as I’d planned, I’m inside. I’d say that it’s the perfect time to grab a book from my TBR pile, a cup of hot chocolate, my bag of jelly beans, and read. The difficult part is selecting which book. But before I do that, I wanted to write you and thank you. IF YOU WERE MY MAN came out March 2nd and went into a 2nd printing two weeks later. You rock!
The day is fast approaching that many of you have been writing and emailing me requests for years, the reissue of FOREVER YOURS, the book that launched four popular series: the Taggart, Falcon, Grayson and Grayson Friends series. FOREVER YOURS will always have a special place in my heart. I wanted to write about a socialite down on love and the Texas cowboy who plans to change her mind. Readers fell in love with Kane Taggart, a man who knows what he wants and how to get it!! I invite you to pick up a copy when the book goes on sale March 30th with the sexy new cover. For those of you who have waited on and wanted the book for so long, here is a brief description.
Why would a happily divorced, independent businesswoman like Victoria Chandler agree to get married again? It’s called desperation. To keep her lingerie boutiques from going bankrupt, Victoria’s got to find a husband—and fast. But what kind of man would accept a marriage proposal that sounds more like a business proposition? Enter Kane Taggart...
Big, handsome, smart, rich—Kane is one fine catch who could have any woman he wants. But there’s something about Victoria that leaves this silver-tongued rancher speechless with desire. He’s tempted by her offer: one year of marriage, no strings attached. But when they seal the deal with a soul-searing kiss, Kane makes a deliciously indecent proposal of his own...
Reviews and Quotes
“Ray, a prolific storyteller in the mode of Nora Roberts, demonstrates a veteran's skill for crafting fascinating, soulful characters with believable motives and mishaps.” —Publishers WeeklyI warmly invite you to pick up a copy of FOREVER YOURS when it hits stores the end of this month on the 30th. While you’re there, please place your order for IT HAD TO BE YOU, book # 4 in the Grayson Friends series, with the release date of April 27th. It’s one of my sexiest books thus far.
