September (and I) rock sale #ContemporaryRomance

Happy September everyone! I'm a September born so this month rocks way more than all the others.

My birthday is September 24th, but I celebrate for the whole month. Every single day in this month is my birthday. 

One thing I've never done in one of my novels is have a hero or heroine celebrate a birthday. It just never figured into any of the plots. I don't even think I've ever mentioned anyone's birthday.

I think I'll have to rectify it it with one of my future bestselling novels (Yes, I claim it).

So what's up for this month?

I'm so excited. Since it's my month and I'm so awesome, I'm trying something new. I put all my books on sale for $1.99 at Amazon and All Romance e-books from August 31st through September 27th.

Knock yourself out and purchase a copy. If you want to make me really happy during my birthday month,  leave a review once you've read it (them).



Blurb

Extraordinary midwife, Esi Darfour, is looking to get married.  She’s a master matchmaker but has no luck when it comes to her love life and has yet to find a man worthy of her. Until she has to deal with gorgeous Dr. Adam Quarshie outside of work.

Adam is a player who refuses to get married—ever. His interest lies more in getting her into bed than in having any kind of committed relationship. Esi’s matchmaker instincts warn her to run in the other direction as quickly as possible, but her heart insists she stay…get closer…and see if what they feel for each other can change his mind.

Blurb

The last thing she expects is to fall in love with a prison guard…

Hotshot Secret Service Agent, Sarita Cerez is thrown into a medium security prison—for work. Her job is to protect the daughter of the president of South Korea. She never envisioned making friends with illegal immigrants or falling head over heels for one of the guards. Now the clandestine activity, which is integral to protecting her charge, may destroy her only chance at love.


He's never fraternized with the inmates—until he met her…

Matthew Carter always plays by the rules, which includes maintaining a strictly professional relationship with the inmates in his charge. But when Sarita saunters onto the unit, all bets are off. Her status as a deportee with a permanent ticket to Columbia means they can never be together, but try as he might, this doesn’t stop him from risking his career for her.


He's a man who values honesty above all else, and she lies for a living. Can two people from such different worlds find any common ground?

Birthday, Release date, and #99cents sale #Multicultural #Romance #Africa

I have some two-year-old-hopping-up-and-down-excited kind of news.

2. Destiny Mine, the second book in the Decadent Publishing Ubuntu series has a release date of March 10th. Yahoo! The gorgeous book cover reveal will be coming soon. By the way, this is my first published novel with S-E-X in it. *silly little giggle*

3. In honor of #2, Midwife to Destiny is on sale for 99 cents at Amazon. Isn't that the best news ever!

Debbie Christiana's #giveaway month

From Google.com
Debbie Christiana is celebrating two things this month: Halloween and her birthday. I'm not quite sure which one she's more excited about, but both are awesome.
From Google.com
In honor of Debbie's favorite month, I'm giving away a copy of one of her books (winner's choice) along with a $5 Amazon gift card. One lucky winner gets both prizes.

All you have to do is:

Answer this one question in the comments section (you don't even have to answer correctly, guesses are accepted, and creativity is even more welcome, written with a cackle).

           Who is Debbie Christiana's favorite witch of all time? 

The last day to comment will be Wednesday October 23rd. 
Debbie will announce the answer along with my randomly chosen winner on her blog,  Friday October 25th.

In the meantime don't wait for me to gift you with a copy of one of her fantastic books. Run out (or click on your computer) and buy it.

BLURB 

Time is running out for Armend Zogu. The 250-year old family curse on his head will claim him on his 30th birthday, the winter solstice.

Sofia Palmalosi is just the Strega who can save him. A descendant of a long line of powerful Italian witches, their magic was a gift bestowed on them by the Goddess Diana.

In order to break the curse, Sofia and Armend must piece together the sheet music from an old violin sonata that Armend’s ancestor wrote for his forbidden love. 

Together Sofia and Armend embark on a journey from New York to Sicily and the ancient ruins of Diana’s temple and back to New York while fighting a battle of wits and magic with a psychopath who wants them both dead and the curse intact.

If the curse doesn’t kill Armend, breaking it just might.



The Blurb

She’d never met him before…or had she?

The last thing forty-year old Natalia Santagario expected was to be sitting on a Manhattan barstool ogling a man she’s never met, but swears she knows.

He didn’t know her at all…or did he?

The mysterious dark-haired woman at the end of the bar stops twenty-eight year old Marc Tremonti in his tracks. His head assures him she’s a stranger, but his heart tells him otherwise.

Together they embark on an adventure that will change their lives forever.

Their attraction instant and enigmatic, they undergo past life regression and discover that, not only have they spent hundreds of lives together as lovers, Natalia holds the secret to Marc’s puzzling birthmark. But what should have been a joyful reunion is complicated by a kind, albeit confused, almost ex-wife, an unfortunate accident in a taxicab, and a bout of temporary amnesia that threatens to ruin everything. On top of all that, they must contend with a mischievous ghost from their past. What else could possibly go wrong?

So many great things to celebrate!

Vikki at Scribblings of an Aspiring Author has started a meme where every Friday we post what we are celebrating for the week. Thanks Vikki.




1. I celebrated my birthday on Tuesday and got a huge number of wonderful birthday wishes. 

2. Monday was a holiday (Kwame Nkrumah's birthday - the first president of Ghana).

3. I only had to work for half a day on my birthday (don't be jealous).

4. I climbed up the mountain (on my birthday) for exercise. This was my third time doing it since I moved to the mountain.

5. I had a brilliant week. Nothing more needed to make me smile.

6. Last but not least, Black Opal Books has picked up my short story for their Winter Anthology. Yay!

How was your week?
