Happy New Year!I don't know about you, but I sure am glad that 2008 is over. It was a rough one for me, but things are looking up and that's the great thing about down times. The only way to go is up! Speaking of 'ups' the wait is almost up for SEDUCER to hit the bookstore shelves. February 3rd is the official date, but you might get lucky and find it out a day or two early, so it won't hurt to look if you're out and about the last of January.SEDUCER is my second historical novel with Kensington. It's set in pre-Revolutionary New England, Virginia and again on the high seas of the Atlantic Ocean. My hero is a privateer, before they were sanctioned by the government, so in a sense, he is a pirate. He certainly has some of those wild boy alpha traits women love to hate but can't resist!For excerpts from both books and more info,VISIT MY WEBSITE AT WWW.KAYLAGRAY.COMI'm thrilled to announce that ROGUE has won a national award - the NJ RWA Golden Leaf 2008 for Best First Book! Woohoo! My very first big award and I couldn't be more excited. If you haven't had a chance to read it yet, pick it up and take it on vacation with you over the winter - somewhere nice and warm. You'll feel the Caribbean breezes in the book and for real! Wish I could go, too.
