Book 1 – A Valentine Challenge

"Two strong characters collide in this passionate and heart-warming tale." ~ Readers Suite.

Life is good for ex-soldier turned entrepreneur Michael Ede. Or so he thinks. When his friends set him a challenge to exorcise the memory of a woman from his past, he expects it to be a walk in the park.

Socialite Kasie Bosa is spitting fire at men. Her long-term boyfriend has asked for a break via text message of all things. Fuming, she’s told him to go take a dive off the nearest bridge. So the next man who crosses her path is at risk of being shredded with her spa manicured nails.

Bad news for Michael who has chosen her as the object of his challenge. But neither of them can deny the sizzling chemistry between them nor control their responses, it seems. It’s the season of love. Will they escape unscathed?

Available in eBook from:
Amazon US | Amazon UK | All Romance eBooks | Barnes & Noble

Yay! I have a shiny new book cover + paperback #Giveaway

Can you tell I have a thing for shiny new book covers? LOL. I'm obsessed with them. In fact, this is the third cover change for this particular book.

Don't roll your eyes at me, silly. *smiles* I have perfectly good reasons for changing it this time.

A Valentine Challenge is coming out in paperback!
And the choir sings "Halleluyah!"

Yes, indeed. Those of you who've been waiting to get your fingers on a printed version, should be very happy. The story has been revised and extended with a few new scenes added.

Anticipated re-release date: 14 February 2014

Without further ado, I give you the new cover for A Valentine Challenge.

Yes, I know what you're thinking. Another one with an abstract / inanimate object on the cover. Well, apparently, people don't feel so shy about picking up a paperback with an inanimate object on the cover as opposed to having half-naked people on the cover. *shrugs* I read that somewhere.

So what do you think? Do you like it? If you think there's anything I should change on it, let me know. I'm happy to fiddle with it a bit more.

Feel free to enter the Goodreads giveaway. I'm giving away 5 paperback copies.

Thank you to everyone who read the posts from last week and to those who entered the contest.

The winner is:

Congratulations! You win one of these unproofed ARC paperbacks that came in the mail last week. Just email with your mailing address and tell me what you want written in it.

Cover Reveal & Autographed Paperback Gift

My hands are shaking. I’m excited. I just signed off the book cover for the paperback edition for An Engagement Challenge. Next stop will be physical proof copies of the printed paperback. Yay! My first ever book in paperback. I really can’t wait to hold them in my hands. They arrive soon so I’ll be hounding the postman for the next few days.

To liven up my current blog tour, I want to offer readers the chance to be one of the first people to get their hands on an autographed ARC paperback of An Engagement Challenge. I'll also personalise the autograph (within limits) if you wish to have specific written words on it.
