The latest craze. My fabulous critique partner Elyssa Papa made these for me. Thanks so much, Ely!
Operation Auction
Many people in the romance community know that an auction began today to benefit Fatin Soufan and her family of four daughters after her husband was killed. Fatin has long been a great supporter of romance, hosting the blog Romance Reader @ Heart Novel Thoughts, and doing many small and large things to promote authors and their books. It’s time to return the love. Please visit here to find out more about the auction and all the fabulous prizes, and here to go to eBay to bid. All five of my published Maggie Robinson/Margaret Rowe historical romances will be available for bidding in a book bundle.You can also donate money directly to a fund set up for the girls if auctions frighten you.I just signed up for eBay for the first time and see I may be swept away by all the possibilities. Be brave and bid!

Golden Glow
I’ve just come back from a seven-day cruise in the Eastern Caribbean. Don’t hate me. I got tan and relaxed, but I discovered that after a winter of going barefoot as I stayed indoors writing, the seven (!) pairs of shoes I brought were unwearable. Yes, I’m addicted to shoes, but apparently they are allergic to me. I’m now in gauze bandages and slipper socks and will be forced to continue my sedentary ways at the computer for a while as I recoup. I have something sunny to keep me company, though–the gorgeous cover for September’s Mistress by Marriage! Happy Spring!
Bits and Bobs
I’m still enjoying release week for Margaret Rowe’s Any Wicked Thing. But time marches on, and there are other books to worry about. 🙂 I’ve just added an excerpt for August’s Improper Gentleman. People who entered last month’s contest can expect one of these cute magnets in the mail.
I expect to get copyedits very shortly for September’s Mistress by Marriage. And oh! I’ve seen the cover. It is spectacular! Edward and Caroline are romping in a field of old gold brocade. Unfortunately I don’t have a jpeg for it yet, but as soon as I do, I’ll post it and add it to the books page.
January’s Mistress by Midnight was reviewed by CoffeeTime Romance. Ms. Robinson gives us a tale that contains many different emotions; bitterness, love, sadness, heartache, anger, betrayal, secrecy, joy, passion, and loneliness. Mistress by Midnight takes us on a journey as two long ago lovers once again learn the pleasure of each other’s flesh and love even as one tries to deny feelings for the other. Set in the nineteenth century, this novel is rich in history, danger, and lost love found again.
