Every year I run a special summer contest to win a Tote Bag Full of Books – one of my special tote bags crammed full of fabulous summer reading. And this year I’m running the contest again – but this time it’s a really special competition.

I'm coming to America in two different ways -

To all the wonderful Harlequin readers. Wishing you all the happiest of Valentine's Days with the true joy of a forever kind of love to light up your life

It's just been announced that India Grey has won the UK's Romantic Novelists' Association prize for 2009 with her book  Mistress, Hired for the Billionaire's Pleasure

 This is the award for the shorter length fiction and was presented at  an elegant lunch at The Royal Garden Hotel, Kensington, London

It’s back!

Following on from the discussion  started by my lovely friend Holly Jacobs  about the meaning of some English words  (See The Great Knackered Debate) - we've had fun looking at words that mean one thing on my (the UK) side of The Pond and quite another on Holly's (the USA) side.

I came late to the 1000,000 book challenge. I thought that I was so very busy that the few books I managed to find time to read wouldn’t add  very much to the target, so last year I couldn’t  register and show the world my paltry reading totals.

On Tursday June 5th, I was lucky enough to be invited to the official opening of the Mills & Boon Centenary celebrations exhibition - And then He Kissed Her - which was held in the Central Library in Manchester.
