Marcia is giving away 2 autographed books!

Playing glorified babysitter to a reluctant executive isn't quite the job life coach Kennedy Fitzgerald had in mind.

Unconventional, impulsive and sexy as sin, Salim would rather be traveling the globe helping others than trapped behind a desk. He also doesn't trust Kennedy's motives one bit. Yet beneath her prim exterior is a tempting, sensual woman who makes him long to turn every business meeting into an adventure in soul-searing pleasure.…

Louisa is giving away a $50 B&N Gift Card and an autographed copy of CAN'T STAND THE HEAT!

In her debut novel CAN’T STAND THE HEAT, a Recipe for Love novel, author Louisa Edwards captures the passion to be found in a trendy Manhattan restaurant with a hotshot chef. For sharp-tongued food critic Miranda Wake, the chance to spend a month in Adam Temple’s kitchen to write an expose is both a dream come true (can you say book deal?) and a nightmare (did she mentioned she has no idea how to cook?). Adam’s not about to have his reputation burned by a critic who doesn’t know the difference between poaching and paring… maybe he’ll just have to give the tempting redhead a few private lessons of his own—teaching her what it means to cook with passion… and for once doing more with those manly hands of his than simply preparing sumptuous food! CAN'T STAND THE HEAT goes on sale September 1, 2009.

Watch for Louisa’s new website launch next month. In the meantime, visit Louisa Edwards at http://us.macmillan.com/cantstandtheheat for more information.
