Absolutely thrilled to see my bad-boy sheikh at 2# on the Borders chart today. Thank you all so much for getting on board and joining me for the ride with Razi and Lucy. I admit that setting the first half of this desert romance in a ski resort was a bit different for me, but I hope it adds to Razi’s cosmopolitan appeal as he enjoys one last fling before taking up the reins of duty – a fling that turns into something so much more.
Ski resorts are packed full of the most interesting people, and I often wonder what their lives are like when they leave… Ah, well, it’s back to skiing my desk as I start dreaming again –
Have a wonderful day, everyone – and may all your dreams come true July 21st, 2010 Everything, apparently, at least for me when I set about writing up my ideas for my next books. I start with the white board – scarily white. I have to clean it every Friday before the family descends – can’t have them seeing inside my head – there are some things best left to the imagination. Rotating Riva with Presents I have four couples – I lead with the man in Modern/Presents and the girl in Riva. That’s just my way – not the law!
Talking of which, when I realised quite how much you had enjoyed reading Laying Down The Law , a book I wrote for Heat – I rang Wiggy and demanded, ‘Give with the anecdotes, Wigster.’ So, book number four will feature Sophia ‘fee’ Riley (Fee? Don’t ask. Those of you involved in the law won’t need to ask) and tough, elusive bad-boy Ethan Dexter – the type of man we’d all like to supervise our… So, I’d better get started on book number one – for Modern Presents, with Nero Caracas and Isabella Wheeler going hell for leather into a racy romance – no clues there, then.

I have a joke for you – two, actually: Q. Who’s the king of the pencil case? Q. How do you keep warm in a Mexican cafe? BOOM BOOM! Sxx July 19th, 2010 Extreme bliss – for about 5 seconds That’s how long it takes for me to lose the rosy glow when I press send on a ms – because I’m into the next book before I know what’s hit me. Why is it that I wait until I’m bashing into the deadline wall before I get a head of steam up? If only I spread the work out… ‘If only’ – the fertilizer of the author’s imagination Next time… I’m rather pleased that my ’spooky’ Presents, ‘Ruthless Boss, Dream Baby’, set partly in the land of dreams, is going to be entitled, ‘Gray Quinn’s Baby’ in the US.
This weekend it’s the Cartier Polo event at Smith’s Lawn Windsor and as I’m being ‘dragged along’ (euphemism for ‘try and stop me’) to the China White tent afterwards I should be able to give you a full report on those hard-muscled thighs I like to write about, in the greatest detail – Happy Days! Sxx July 15th, 2010 Oh, here’s a fun piece of displacement activity for all you writers out there – www.iwl.me.com paste a chunk of text and find out who you write like. Me? I’m your gothic dreamer – sounds about right – I like to dress in black – and my teeth are very white and sharp – and – Sxx July 13th, 2010 Urgent Warning to all Pet Owners Please share this with all the pet owners you know and ask them to do the same. This information will only take a few minutes to share might prevent the senseless death of other pets. Please tell every dog or cat owner you know. Even if you don’t have a pet, please pass this to those who do. Cocoa Mulch, which is sold by Target, Foreman’s Garden Supply and other garden supply stores contains a lethal ingredient called ‘Theobromine’. Thank you! July 8th, 2010 Romance is more than alive and definitely kicking in the Stephens’ household We’re well onto our second wedding dress – not an unusual occurence, I’m told, although the moths in my purse are complaining –
Above everything else on the day, the dress has to be right – and the latest one is fabulous. And as if that isn’t enough joy for one evening, the florist is someone in whom I am happy to place my absolute trust – and would possibly move back to Cheshire in order to avail myself of his incredible flair and amazing expertise on a regular basis – More wedding gen to come as and when we get there, so stay tuned. Meanwhile, I’m off to soak off the stresses of – the ‘will we – won’t we – find it’ (the dress, I mean) – in a bath of ass’s milk. Okay – I guess Radox will have to do July 3rd, 2010
I adored writing about go-getter Casey Michaels and her bad-boy sheikh, Raffa. My boundless thanks go to all you amazing readers out there who keep me bouncing when my eyes are revolving and out on stalks from so much avid staring at the screen. I appreciate you all more than you can know Sxx July 1st, 2010 Cats in May, June, July and all the rest of the year round One of my all time favourite books as a child was ‘Cats in May’ followed by ‘Cats in the Belfry’ – or was it the other way round? Anyhow, I still have them, lovingly kept on my shelves at home But the feral cats here in Menorca aren’t quite as lucky – here are a few of them for you to see… I call this next shot, ‘Just chillin’ ‘ as this cat can always be found basking in full sunlight. And this is my adopted cat, Jeffers
And this poor cat really worries me – in fact, I haven’t seen it recently, and the last time I did it was coughing badly. And perhaps most worrying of all, here’s a kitten peeping round the corner. Yet another – so far -healthy patient for the neutering programme. Sxx June 29th, 2010
I loved writing the book and want to dedicate it to the three wonderful chalet girls who took such fantastic care of our crazy gang in Val d’Isere. We’re off to the caves tonight – a fantastic spot with a bar and nightclub set high up in the cliffs from where you get a bird’s eye view of the dramatic sunset |
Sitting by the feeding station – doesn’t this just suggest, ‘Don’t patronise me…’
You can see he/she/it has been in some sort of dreadful accident.
At least the food station is in the shade
Not much of a home, but better than nothing, I guess, so long as there are people around to provide the food and money for the neutering programme here to continue.
