Sometimes a blaze is too hot and tantalizing to battle.  Firefighter, Gunner Crews, wakes up after extinguishing a brushfire to find he is enslaved by a tiny red fairy temptress named Sera.  Whisked away to a tiny alien world where bugs might eat you for dinner, Gunner soon learns that Sera is responsible for igniting the very blaze he and his co-firefighters have recently put out.  Hell-bent on being no fairy's slave, Gunner's plans of finding his way home, are dampened by a smouldering passion Sera stirs within him.  Will he be able to chill the fervor she spins or will he be consumed by a firestorm too pleasurable and scintillating to fight?

What could be worse than waking

up
lonely on May Day? Finding a naked
male stranger with wings in your
house.

That is exactly what Amanda
Birchfield discovers when she
stumbles out of bed to make her
morning coffee. After rousing from a
faint, Amanda learns her intruder,
Saje, is a trinket-hoarding, seed-
spreading Woodland
Fairy. And he’s brought her a room
full of May Day Baskets in hopes
she'll trade a little pleasure.

Instead of fleeing for her life--or
admitting herself to the local looney
bin--Amanda is drawn to Saje’s
scrumptious body and carefree spirit.
But once the brief, but oh-so
satisfying sexcapade atop her dining
room table is over, he refuses to
leave. How will she get rid of him? Or
will she want to?

In my story, Amanda winds up making 'Whoopie' with Saje on her dining room table.  What exactly would you do if you found a handsome, naked stranger with wings standing in your home?

Let me know.

Remember to keep your answers PG rated since some viewers here may be under the tender age of 18. 

Good luck and let your imagination fly!

I got my first review from Coffeetime Romance.  4 cups.  Whoot.  

 I'm listed in the January 09 issue of RWA's Romance Writer's Report under their first sales section.  Woooohoooo!  Little things make me so excited.   I had to share.

On to other stuff:

My New Year's resolution is to loose a few pounds since my Cancer treatment drugs keep packing them on.  Boy, my appetite has increased ten-fold.  Anyway, the past two days have been good, but  I'm not dieting, I'm making wiser food choices and trying to cut out alot of the sugar in my diet, which isn't an easy thing since I love sweets.

Drop me a comment and tell me what your 2009 resolutions are.

I hope ya'll had a blessed Christmas.  My family and I had great holidays.  We spent Christmas and New Years with all our family and friends.

One bit of sad news, though.  My husband's Uncle passed away a few days  prior to Christmas due to complications from a car accident.  We'll miss you, Langley.

Take care everyone,

Deb

Wild Rose is offering me a contract on Saje.  This is my first sale.  I can't believe it.  I found out this evening.  Whoooot.  I'll keep everyone updated on its progress.

I also have made 'Pro' status with RWA.  Woohoo. 

Onto health news:  I had a great checkup with my oncologist last week.  Everything checked out good.  They flushed my port and did a physical. I'm now a 5 month cancer survivor. :)  Yeehaw!

I'm so excited, I had to share the good news with everyone.

Take care,

Deb

Today I received an email rejection on Thorn's Embrace.  I'm not too bummed though.  It means that I can move to pro status with RWA.  Woooohoooo.  I filled out the application and will send it off tomorrow.

I'll plan to submit it elsewhere this weekend.  I'll keep everyone posted on this story, and also 'Saje' which is at Wild Rose. Keeping my toes crossed for that one.

The past few nights I've been enjoying reading Sherrilyn Kenyon's Acheron. It's so good.  I can hardly put it down. 

Ya'll take care,

Deb 

Hi all.  I heard from the editor at the publishing company on Saje.  She rejected it but took the time to give me some suggestions for a rewrite and even was nice enough to take the time to critique several pages of my manuscript and invited me to resubmit.

I was shocked to receive another email from her, requesting that I please consider following her suggestions and resubmitting because she feels it would be perfect for her line. 

I'm psyched about this.  Her suggestions are all do-able and fairly easy to change.  I'm already half done with the rewrite.  After I finish, I'll post it to my critique partners for a quick review and then I'll resubmit it to the editor.  I'm keeping my toes crossed that I get this baby published.  

Thorn's Embrace is still at Samhain and I'm waiting on word.  It's a full length novel so it will take longer to hear from them.

As for my health,  I'm doing great.  I still have the body pain but that will be my norm for the next few years.  I'm so thankful that I'm a cancer survivor.   I thank God for every new day. 

I enjoyed a massage at the Beau Rivage this past Sunday. (thanks to my writing buddies)  To my utter surprise, I got there early so I was killing time window shopping when Phil--can't recall his last name--from Def Leppard and his wife came up right beside me as they window shopped also.  I recognized them but pretended I didn't notice who they were. It wasn't the time to be a groupie. :) They weren't working.

Anyhoos, the guy that did my massage told me that they were staying there because of a show they performed at the coast coliseum sometime last weekend.  I'd heard they were playing but didn't keep up with when the concert was cause I wasn't planning on going. 

But running into them was really cool.

That's about it for now.  Take care everyone,

Deb
