A little bit of this and that

It's Wednesday, hump day, the middle of the week. I don't know about you but here in Jersey it has been miserable! It's been raining for about 4 days and has just zapped my energy. But you know what the best thing about it... I spent a couple mornings watching North and South with the wonderful and sexy Richard Armitage.


That man can scowl at me all he wants! If you haven't seen I suggest you do. Mr Thornton is totally swoon worthy!

Also, for the past week I've been reading Jenn LeBlanc's The Rake and The Recluse. Yes, I said the past week and no I'm not done yet. Why? Because I keep getting distracted by the fabulous pictures! I would highly recommend this book to all historical romance lovers and don't forget, Romancing Rakes is giving away 2 copies of the E-book and Jenn LeBlanc also threw in some swag! So head over to enter!

Also, there was some big news announced yesterday. I am a HUGE fan of JR Ward's and her Black Dagger Brotherhood series. I've been hooked since Book 1, Dark Lover and cried like a baby in Book 3, Lover Awakened. Now, after 9 books, my man Tohr is next! JR Ward announced Tohr was next at her book signing in April and yesterday she gave us his title: Lover Reborn. I'm not going to give away any spoilers (cause I hate that) but I am SOOO excited and if you're a fan of the series you know what the title means. All I'm saying is that Ward better give Tohr one hell of an HEA! So, I will now be freaking out for the next year waiting for Lover Reborn since it won't be released until late April or early May.

To me, the BDB is my crack and Ward is my dealer! Is there a book that you are just DYING for? I'm also waiting for Lorraine Heath's Waking Up With The Duke which comes out June 28.

Greatest Weekend Ever... I think so!

So despite the fact that blogger was being wonky and I couldn't tell what happened I'm just going to say that this weekend was AMAZING!

First, I went down to Maryland to babysit a 1 year old. Now, I love Christen to death but when she told me that Andrew's new favorite thing is to bite and pull hair I was worried. But, he was a perfect angel and so lovey! I kept getting hugs and really, what's better then baby hugs? Nothing!

Last night I saw Bridesmaids and I laughed so hard it's not even funny! I was on the fence about seeing it but after everyone told me it was amazing I went and I was sooo not disappointed. Go see it!

And perhaps the best thing this weekend was that I booked my ticket for RomCon!! And what's even better... Kati from Romancing Rakes is going to be my roomie!! And you know what else... Rita from Not Another Romance Blog is coming too! (Ok, so she's not official yet but she's coming if I have to stuff her in my suitcase!) So yes, The Pervy Trinity will be taking RomCon by storm so watch out Denver!

I am sooo excited for RomCon because not only do I get to meet Kati and Rita but I also get to meet some of my favorite Naughty Authors: Jenn LeBlanc and Ashley March! And Jenn is bringing her Muse DH to RomCon! And I hear Ashley is bring us some Blue Bell ice cream!So I am really, really excited for RomCon! Now I wish it was August!

*RomCon Giveaway Quote for Seducing the Duchess*

"She was glad for the brace of his arms holding her in place, keeping her from leaning into him. Her mind knew better, but her body was traitorous, yearning for him. This man who knew how to strum her body, how to cry out with pleasure with his deft, knowing fingers."

Do you know what else I'm excited about: Man Candy Monday! Tonight is Jock Candy and it's Beth Yarnall's Birthday! So Happy Birthday Beth! My present is Cristiano Ronaldo!

Now don't forget to join us tonight 9pm EST and 6pm PST for some yummy men! See you then!

Did you hear?

Huzzah! Did you hear the news? Kati aka Romancing Rakes is doing her first author interview and giveaway! And just who is this lucky author? Why it's the super fabulous Jenn LeBlanc author of The Rake and The Recluse. You want to know the best thing about Jenn LeBlanc's book... its illustrated. And by illustrated I mean pictures of real people! And let me tell you, those pictures HAWT! I mean, just look at the cover!

Now see that gorgeous man on the cover? That would be our newest obsession, Derek, or DH. So a few nights ago we were twittering about how much we are in lust with that sexy man (seriously get the e-book because the pictures are smokin!) that Ms. LeBlanc offered to do Kati's first author interview. How sweet is that? And what's even sweeter... She's giving away two copies of the e-book and some other fun stuff!

Kati and I tagged team Ms. LeBlanc with some questions. I really just wanted to know where I could find DH and keep him for myself. What? A girl can try. Anyway, make sure you ALL head over to Romancing Rakes because there are pictures too!

So I happen to have an ePub copy of The Rake and The Recluse that I just downloaded the other day. I will also admit that I scrolled through the book to look at the pictures first. I just think the idea of an illustrated novel is so cool. You should also head to Jenn's Leblanc's website The Illustrated Romance and take a look at what she does!

Now make sure you comment over at Romancing Rakes. Kati's got the goods, I'm just pimping!

The giveaway will end 5/18 and trust me, you'll want to win! I hear Ms LeBlanc is sending some pictures of DH *sigh*
