Important News for Nook Readers

If you’re a Nook reader, I regret to tell you that my books will no longer be available at Barnes & Noble’s Nook store as of today, April 30. I don’t want to get into all the behind-the-scenes nonsense that has been going on, so I’ll just say this: I’ve been in the publishing industry for three decades now, and every time a publisher or retailer stops paying authors for books already sold, it’s the first step on a one-way road that ends badly. Every. Time.

This was not an easy decision, but I have permanently removed all my books from the Nook store as of the close of business today. I simply can’t afford to donate my ebook income to a corporation owned by a multi-million-dollar hedge fund.

Please rest assured, I plan to continue bringing you wonderful books to love for many years to come, in all your favorite formats: ebook, audio, and paperback. You can buy all my ebooks at Amazon and many are free to read in the Kindle Unlimited program. (If you’ve never owned a Kindle before, I highly recommend the Paperwhite, the favorite e-reader of booklovers around the world.) You’ll find my audiobooks at Audible and iTunes, and I’m working on getting paperbacks into libraries later this year. Thank you for your understanding and support during this challenging time.

New Year, New Look

I’m expanding my Escape with a Scoundrel series in 2020, so this seemed like a great time to refresh the packaging on the first two books. I wanted a “sexy romantic suspense” look and cover designer Kim Killion delivered! WOW! Talk about a package! Who can resist a H-O-T earl with a really big…pistol LOL.

If you’ve already read RUN WILD and MIDNIGHT RAIDER, please be aware that these are the exact same books, just with new titles and covers. The ID numbers remain the same at all the ebook stores, so you can’t accidentally buy these new editions if you already own these two books. I’m not looking to “trick” anyone into buying books they already own; I just wanted to freshen up the series to help these sizzling, adventure-packed romances reach more readers.

You can buy ESCAPE WITH A SCOUNDREL and HER SCOUNDREL EARL today at Amazon | Apple Books | B&N | GooglePlay | Kobo

If you already own the original editions of these books and you’d like to update to the new look, you’ll need to call customer service at the store where you originally bought the books. Each store has its own steps to follow. So far, I’ve been a complete failure at trying to get the books to update on my Kindle! Amazon just re-sends the original editions, argh. I’ll report back if I can work out a fix with the nice Kindle people. Also, please be aware that you’ll erase any bookmarks or highlights you might have in the books when you upload the new editions.

Next week, my newsletter subscribers will get the first peek at the next two books in this series, which will be published in January and February. The heroes of these new releases might just be my all-time favorites, and I can’t wait for you to meet them! If you’re not a newsletter subscriber yet, sign up today.

Raise a glass of champagne and hold on to those pistols, ladies, because 2020 is going to be the Year of the Scoundrel!
