Between Christmas and New Years, I...

Ate out.  Twice.  Finished a proposal that had previously not been cooperating.  Plan to take down the tree.  Plan to watch THE HELP and MARGIN CALL.  Tonight, as a matter of fact.


And am so looking forward to the release of The Return of Bowie Bravo.  I have five books out in 2012.  The Return of Bowie Bravo in February, The Prince's Secret Baby in April, The Last Single Maverick in July, The Prince She Had to Marry in November and The Rancher's Secret Baby (working title only on that one) in December.  Wahoo!


The April, November and December books are all in the new Bravo series, Bravo Royale, about the nine children of Evan Bravo, the Bravo-Calabretti family.  I need to get busy on some updates for my website, more info about the princely family of Montedoro.  


The July book is a launch of the next series of multi-author Montana Mavericks stories.  I turned that one in at the first of this month.  It's all about Jason Traub and his wonderful runaway bride, Jocelyn.  And no, Jocelyn didn't run away from Jace.  She ran from her cheating fiance, Kenny.  I had great fun with Joss and Jace!


Hope you're all enjoying the the holidays.  I certainly am!  The picture?  Of my favorite little one on the day before Christmas Eve.  He's listening to the Bing Crosby doll.  You push the button on Bing's base, and he sings White Christmas...or It's Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas...or any of five or six other Bing Crosby hits.

Our Christmas Tree

 This tree came with us across the country last year.  Over a bunch of slick, frozen roads in late December.  All the lights still work, in spite of the jostling it got.  Last year, we didn't put it up.  We arrived here in our new home on Christmas Eve.  Boxes stacked everywhere.  No room--or time--to spend decorating for the season.


But this year, we're on it.  Merry Christmas.  And as Tiny Tim would say, God Bless us, every one!
