Susan Elizabeth Phillips
Believe me Miss Fancy Pants, I don't have any designs on your body... This was the book that started it all for me. Until I wrote FANCY PANTS, I didn't know I could make readers laugh. But laugh they did, and I finally found my voice as a writer. If you're interested in the evolution of the romance novel during the late 20th century, FANCY PANTS was, as many of you know, the first big romance set in the world of professional sports. There was a rule at the time (a really stupid rule!) that you weren't allowed to write a sports hero. The thing is...nobody told me the rule! I am forever grateful. If you missed HEROES the first time around (and I hope you didn't), you have another chance. HEROES ARE MY WEAKNESS is now available in mass market paperback! HEROES ARE MY WEAKNESS - A great, gloomy house, an isolated island in the North Atlantic, a VERY dangerous hero, and a heroine who only wants to be left alone. (Ha!) I love interacting with my readers on Facebook, Twitter, my website and now Instagram. For updates, sign up for my Newsletter. For a chance to win autographed books, visit SEP Sweepstakes!

It's been such a terrific, colorful, wonderful fall. Thank you so much for all your support for my dark gothic, CHARLOTTE'S STORY: A BLISS HOUSE NOVEL. I've loved reading the many good things reviewers have said: Becky LeJeune at No More Grumpy Bookseller gives it a 5/5! And I'm delighted that The Richmond Times (in Bliss House's home state of Virginia) calls it a "...skillfully rendered mixture of ghost story and mystery that draws on the spirits of du Maurier, Stephen King and -- in its depiction of a tormented family -- Joyce Carol Oates." Have you picked up a copy, yet? If your local bookstore is sold out, they can order it, or you can get it online everywhere, including Barnes & Noble and Amazon. Don't forget to enter this month's contest at my site to win a signed copy of Jamie Mason's terrific thriller, Monday's Lie. Sending you big hugs and wishes for a gorgeous November.

Anna Bradley
Dear Readers, The moment I've been waiting for is nearly upon us! My debut novel, A WICKED WAY TO WIN AN EARL is about to go out into the world and try its luck with readers. I think I've sprouted a few gray hairs over the past six weeks waiting for the book launch on Nov. 3 (I never noticed October was such a long month!) but it's been worth the wait. For me, that is. My family has put up with a fair amount of crazy from me lately, so I'd better not speak for them. A WICKED WAY TO WIN AN EARL has had some wonderful reviews, including a starred review in Publishers Weekly. It's a thrill for me to see my book cover on those celebrated pages, and of course every writer loves a positive review! But now I'm holding my breath for the true test. By the time this newsletter reaches you, Halloween will be over, we'll be shopping for turkeys and cranberry sauce, and A WICKED WAY TO WIN AN EARL will be uploaded onto your Kindles, on your bookshelves, and in your hands. I can't wait!

Laura Drewry
From HOW FOREVER FEELS (available now!): "Thanks, Snip." He pushed his door open, then twisted to his left to give her cheek a kiss. God help her, she didn't mean to do it, but as his lips pressed against her cheek, her fingers reached up and whispered along his jaw line. A breath of a touch that couldn't have lasted more than a fraction of a second, but it was long enough for her to realize he'd gone almost rigid. Panic flooded her senses until her brain finally kicked back into gear. Don't just sit there; do something. "Good luck tomorrow," she said brightly, forcing her hand back to the steering wheel, where it belonged. "Remember to keep your thumbs out of the way." "Yeah, uh, thanks." She couldn't see his face, because he'd turned away and was busy trying to untwist himself from the car. He let Pete out then leaned over so he had one hand on the open door, one on the roof, his face looking straight down at the ground. "I'll, uh, see you . . . later." "Okay." Ohmygod, she sounded like Mickey Mouse. "See ya." Reviews, excerpt & buy links: www.lauradrewry.com

Asher and Nancy will need more than a carnal connection if they hope to survive. Pre-Order NOW! BETRAYAL (The Demon Hunters) In service to His Majesty, one must be prepared for Hell.

Now a Hunter herself, Elizabeth's first task in this new and strange world is to aid the recently wounded Lord Reece Foxjohn, and get him back into Demon-slaying shape...

He is a man who doesn't hesitate when he knows what he wants, and what he wants is Miss Elizabeth Smythe. From the moment he set eyes on the fiery Hunter, he's wanted to claim her for his own. To watch her behead the progeny of Evil is to behold a thing of beauty.

Happy fall! I am super excited to announce the upcoming release of EASTON'S EVERYTHING-- November 17th! Check out my website for more information... www.amygregoryauthor.com. Easton Montgomery demands control and order. He's purposely kept to himself, no strings and no nonsense. He prefers to be in charge of his destiny, keeping his life neat and tidy, all wrapped up. Life is perfect, until the bow comes undone and his world unravels. Jessica Pierce left Denver years ago with nothing more than her clothes and a need for a new beginning. After planting roots where her car broke down, life was good. Then the ranch owner who helped her rebuild threw her a curve ball. Now she's the new girl in Renlend, Kansas on the Montgomery's ranch, and their son Easton is a constant source of frustration. Getting her hands around the veterinarian's neck looks better by the day. After a week of stepping around each other, dodging barbed comments, and Jessica's smart mouth, Easton realizes she's got more fire than any other woman he's met. Suddenly Easton wonders if this curvy, blonde pistol might just be the challenge he's been waiting for. Have a great day! Hugs, Amy

Madeline Hunter
Thank you to all the readers who have read TALL, DARK AND WICKED, and especially to those of you generously gave the time to write reviews. Like all authors, I am grateful for each reader who invests time in one of my books! Fantastic reviews started coming in soon after I submitted my last update for Writerspace's newsletter. In addition to a rarely awarded starred review from Publishers Weekly, TALL, DARK AND WICKED received a wonderful review from Romantic Times. "Hunter's novels are memorable because they are unconventional in plot and character. They are always smart, witty, thought provoking and incorporate intriguing historical details. This is another wonderful read." Kathe Robbins 4� stars, Top Pick . And from Bonnie Rose on Freshfiction: "Ives and Padua are the kinds of lead characters I love reading about -- they're strong, honest, determined, and not afraid to admit their feelings and talk things out. It was a joy to follow their road to love. TALL, DARK & WICKED is a book that is truly hard to put down." I just finished the manuscript for THE WICKED DUKE, the third book in the series. It is Lance's story, he being the current Duke of Aylesbury. It includes a marriage of convenience, but the convenience is most unusual and tied to the mystery surrounding the death of the hero's brother Percy. This is a duke rumored to be wicked in more than his sensual skills and tastes, although he does not disappoint the heroine on that count! I will be attending RT this upcoming April, and hope that readers who go will look for me. I also will attend the Historical Romance Retreat for readers in September, a new con special to historical romance readers which promises to be wonderful fun. Check it out! Closer in time and location (to me!) is a reader and author mixer in Charlotte, NC, this February where I will be a keynote speaker www.whentheheartdreams.com. I hope to see many of you this year!

Let's just say undead (but oh-so-sexy) French pirate Jean Lafitte heads off to rural South Louisiana to claim one of his gold-laden schooners that sank in 1814 and was recently discovered at the bottom of the Gulf of Mexico. The U.S. Coast Guard and Terrebonne Parish Sheriff's Office have other ideas....In the Birmingham, Alabama, area on Saturday, November 7, Suzanne will be signing at the annual Southern Magic Readers Luncheon, along with guest speaker Darynda Jones and many other published authors.

Happy November everyone! As I said last month, my second Superstition Mystery is now available: KNOCK ON WOOD. In it, the series protagonist Rory Chasen has to help clear her closest friend Gemma Grayfield of murder while running the Lucky Dog Boutique in Destiny, California, which is all about superstitions. Of course her own lucky black and white dog Pluckie is always there for her. I've also been working on getting some of my backlist books available as e-books. That now includes ONCE A CAVALIER, a time travel romance in which Cavalier King Charles Spaniels, my favorite pups, help protagonist Dr. Larryn Maeller move back in time to the era of King Charles II of England--and the Great Plague of London and the Great Fire of London. Of course what really gets her traveling is the picture, and apparent ghost, of Thomas Northby, the duke of Seldrake, not to mention his adorable small spaniel. And, yes, since it's a time travel romance you can be sure of their immediate attraction, and not just over the dogs! ONCE A CAVALIER is available now on Amazon. More time travel romance e-books, Superstition Mysteries, Barkery & Biscuits Mysteries, Harlequin Nocturnes and Harlequin Romantic Suspense to come!

Dana Marton
My small-town romantic suspense novel, DEATHWATCH (Broslin Creek #1), will be FREE for the entire month of November. The only person who can identify the most notorious hit man in the country, Kate Bridges is running for her life. Murphy Dolan is in the Army Reserves, returning from his 2nd tour of duty, only to find a stranger hiding in his house. She's scared spitless. He's completely burned-out on violence. Neither of them has any trust left to give. The Broslin Creek series (six books so far, and each can be read as a standalone novel) is set in a small town in Pennsylvania, and features hunky ex-military and law enforcement alpha heroes and the smart, strong women who love them. Broslin Creek may have a high murder rate for a small town, but I promise that it's a nice place to visit! Download your free copy from Kindle, Nook, iBooks, Kobo, or GooglePlay, and add the audiobook for just $1.99 from Audible. DEATHWATCH has over 300 five-star reviews from Amazon.

Francis Ray
A little background on I KNOW WHO HOLDS TOMORROW. Many years ago, when my mother Francis Ray was in the initial stages of plotting I KNOW WHO HOLDS TOMORROW, she asked a question of her female co-workers and immediately realized the plot she had in mind would be a hot-topic of conversation and debate. The question she asked was if they would raise the infant daughter of their recently deceased husband as their own. Some said yes and some said no way. She then added that if they said no and didn't take the infant, it would be placed in the foster system. However, that didn't change the co-workers' initial answer. What was an eye-opener to my mother was hearing from a couple of the women that their father had "another family," and that their mother and the town were aware of it. As the women spoke, she could feel their anger, bitterness and embarrassment. My mother left the room asking herself what kind of man did that to his family and, just as importantly, what kind of woman let him. I KNOW WHO HOLDS TOMORROW explores and answers those questions.

Wendy Corsi Staub
Forty-eight hours after her romance HELLO, IT'S ME premiered as a Hallmark Movies & Mysteries movie starring Kellie Martin, New York Times bestselling author Wendy Corsi Staub's latest novel, BLOOD RED (October, HarperCollins), was published. A Bookscan bestseller within days of release, it's garnering rave reviews including this from Hartford Book Examiner: "An auspicious launch to the Mundy's Landing trilogy. Staub more than lives up to the promise by delivering both a satisfying stand-alone mystery and a tantalizing glimpse into the origins of a town... whose darkest days remain shrouded in secrecy." Wendy's other fall release, NINE LIVES (November, Crooked Lane) launches her new Lily Dale mystery series. Heavyweights including Publishers Weekly and Booklist are weighing in with praise for that as well, and longandshortreviews says, "I definitely recommend it to mystery and nonmystery fans alike. It's just that good a read." Also out this fall from Staub's alter-ego Wendy Markham: Avon Impulse reissued her USA Today bestselling romance THE NINE MONTH PLAN, and there's a new e-title in her whimsical middle-grade Teen Angel series, HENRY HOPKINS AND THE HORRIBLE HALLOWEEN HAPPENING--a follow-up to MITZI MALLOY AND THE ANYTHING BUT HEAVENLY SUMMER and BRITTANY BUTTERFIELD AND THE BACK-TO-SCHOOL BLUES.

He learns too late that the beauty he's bedded is really his best friend's sister�and his undercover partner on a risky mission. Chessie and Mal have to stay one step ahead of the CIA, navigate their way through a perilous country, and fight the insane chemistry that sizzles between them. It doesn't take long for this hacker and spy to discover the power of their unplanned partnership�and learn that falling in love might be the riskiest business of all.
