Lots of news!
Hello there! I thought I’d drop by my own blog
to post about a few things. I’m on twitter and facebook every day - and would love to meet you over there, so please drop by and say hello.
Okay, here’s what’s been going on with me lately:
* WILD HEAT is excerpted in the January issue of COSMOPOLITAN magazine, out now! (Amanda Bynes is on the pink cover.)
* German translation rights sold for WILD HEAT, HOT AS SIN & NEVER TOO HOT
* Thai translation rights sold for TAKE ME, TemptMeTasteMeTouchMe, RED HOT REUNION, GAME FOR ANYTHING & GAME FOR SEDUCTION
* I’ve got the beautiful new cover for NEVER TOO HOT!
* HOT AS SIN is a part of the Barnes & Noble Holiday Gift Guide:
New HOT AS SIN Reviews:
All About Romance: The romance is very good. This is my first Bella Andre but I’m interested in reading more. There is a book preceding this one which features another firefighter on Sam’s hotshot team, and I look forward to adding it to my collection.
Romance Reviews Today: Scintillating sexual tension and rising danger screech across the pages of HOT AS SIN.
Bella Andre adeptly builds the suspense as Sam and Dianna race to search for her missing sister in the rugged Rocky Mountains. A gripping tale that will have you on the edge of your seat, HOT AS SIN is a read I recommend.
I hope everyone is having a lovely December.
Happy Holidays!

HOT AS SIN is out!!
HOT AS SIN hits shelves today! It’s the 2nd book in my Men of Fire series and as one early reader told me, “Sam is quite the hero.”
Oh yes he is.
Enjoy it!

Beautiful Vermont!
We had such a great time in Vermont - and they’ve got a great big Borders in downtown Burlington with lots of my books too!
[There's a little celebrate 400 years in Burlington sign in the far left corner. Wow, for us Californians, that seems like an impressively long time for a city to be around.]
Hilarious!
Somebody submitted this version of my RED HOT REUNION cover for the SmartBitchesTrashyBooks cover contest (thanks for alerting me, Tonda):
As far as I can tell, the contest is making fun of that British book cover that has Dan Brown’s name bigger than the authors. But whatever the reason, I like it!

Washington Post coverage!!!!
Monica McCarty and I did a workshop on Alpha Heroes at the RWA National conference in DC last week - and in an article in the Washington Post they mentioned it. http://tinyurl.com/ktlazn
“Workshop offerings are equally vast. More than 100 sessions address everything from “High-Octane” kisses to sketching believable alpha heroes (sub-categories include: Warrior Alpha, Chief Alpha, Extreme Alpha, Bad Boy Alpha, Wounded Alpha, Swashbuckling Alpha, Geek Alpha and Gentle Alpha).”
Yes, that was directly from our workshop, which makes me think Monica Hesse, the writer of the article, was probably listening in to our workshop.
Fun!
