I don\u2019t think that will happen because I am totally engrossed in this book, the third one of my forthcoming series <i>The Rarest Blooms<\/i>.<\/p>\n<p>Its title is <b><i>Sinful in Satin<\/i><\/b>, and it is the story of Celia Pennifold. Celia\u2019s scandalous history is discovered in <b><i>Ravishing in Red<\/i><\/b>, and in her own book she grapples with the implications of the legacy and life bequeathed to her when her mother passes away. Her quest to strike out on her own, and to learn her father\u2019s identity, is complicated by the presence of dark and mysterious Jonathan Albrighton, a man with his own secrets and scars.<\/p>\n<p>The covers for the first two books in the series, <b><i>Ravishing in Red<\/i><\/b> (release 1\/26\/10) and <b><i>Provocative in Pearls<\/i><\/b> (2\/23\/10), are up, and so is the excerpt for RR. These first two books will be back-to-back releases. This means that along with <b>Sinful in Satin<\/b> in the fall, I will have three of this quartet\u2019s books published by this time next year.<\/p>\n<p>I continue to blog at The Goddess Blogs along with 9 wonderful bestselling writers of great wit and charm. Stop by and visit us for some lighthearted fun and gab fests at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.thegoddessblogs.com\" target=\"_blank\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><b>www.TheGoddessBlogs.com<\/b><\/span><\/a>. And be sure to at least drop by on Sundays, when instead of blogging we offer refreshments of a special kind!<\/p>\n<p>I am also on Twitter at @MadelineHunter, and I will soon activate a twitter account related to the new series. Daphne Joyes, the owner of <i>The Rarest Blooms<\/i>, will be commenting on her friends, revealing backstories, and discussing the inhabitants of Cumberworth, the town near her property. Daphne will eventually have her own book, the last in the series, to be titled <b><i>Dangerous in Diamonds<\/i><\/b> (anticipated release in spring 2011.) You can follow her at @DaphneJoyes on Twitter now and begin receiving her tweets from the start.<\/p>\n<p>I have also had a widget made. Widgets are cute little applications that can be copied and put anywhere on a web page, sort of like mini web pages within web pages. Mine is similar to an entire mini web site. It should be on my homepage soon, but in the meantime you can see it (and copy it if you want) at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.clearspring.com\/widgets\/4ad79fd8389be07b\" target=\"_blank\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><b>http:\/\/www.clearspring.com\/widgets\/4ad79fd8389be07b<\/b><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Madeline<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I am looking at a month of holiday preps and lots of writing, hoping the former does not interfere too much with the latter (you know how holidays tend to take over a bit!)
