And the one I attended on Saturday was no exception. It was lovely. Small, intimate, and wonderful all around. My daughter lost her first tooth at the reception and she was giddy. She’s been desperate to lose a tooth. LOL!
I hit Spring Cleaning mode last week and it’s carrying through to this week. The house falls apart when I’m deep into a book, and I need to get it back to order before I can begin the next one. I finished the downstairs last week. I hope to finish my room today. I started last night, after I returned home from Vegas, but quit when DEXTER came on. That show rocks! I’m hooked.
Since DON’T TEMPT ME is out for review so quickly on the heels of HEAT OF THE NIGHT I’m receiving mail about both. It’s interesting to me how many people like one or the other. It’s not that they dislike one genre, just that they far prefer one over the other, even when the author of both is the same. So some readers like the fantasies, but don’t love them. And some readers find that while they liked my historicals, they love the fantasies.
Next year, I launch two new fantasy series — one urban, the other a historical/futuristic, both in mass market — but I’ll also have a new historical out, too, in trade. Should be fun. 
Here’s a snippet of the latest review for DON’T TEMPT ME:
“Suffice it to say, the plot in this story is tangled and filled with intrigue. Sylvia Day’s DON’T TEMPT ME is a sensual and sexual experience that will literally keep you on the edge of your seat. The characters are engaging and the passion is hot! This is an excellent choice for historical fans.”

Sounds like a lovely time. And yay to your daughter. How much does a tooth fairy pay these days?
Oh, either book sounds wonderful to me, as I will be getting both of them.

Speaking of daughters, how exciting for yours! I remember my oldest daughter swallowing her second lost tooth - she was beside herself with worry that it wouldn’t count and the tooth fairy wouldn’t come. My youngest used write out “kweshtions” for the tooth fairy, Santa, Easter Bunny, asking them to draw a picture of themselves and asking numerous questions. Guess she thought they had nothing better to do than hang out in her room writing a report. Silly kids.
One more review book to go and then I’ll be cracking open DON’T TEMPT ME - I can’t wait!!
Have a great day!
