Did Harlequin hear about the cookies?

The Dark Side has cookies, yanno...

Blurb:

I had everything a woman could want...

My husband, James. The house on the lake.

My life. Our perfect life.

And then Alex came to visit.

The first time I saw my husband's best friend, I didn't like him. Didn't like how James changed when he was around, didn't like how his penetrating eyes followed me everywhere.

But that didn't stop me from wanting him. And, surprisingly, James didn't seem to mind.

It was meant to be fun. Something the three of us shared for those hot summer weeks Alex stayed with us. Nobody was supposed to fall in or out of love. I didn't need another man, not even one who oozed sex like honey and knew all the secrets I didn't know, the secrets my husband hadn't shared. After all, we had a perfect life.

And I loved my husband.

But I wasn't the only one.

I may have to purchase this tome just to verify the slashy goodness, or lack thereof.

Oh Romancelandia!

I know, I'm spamming today, but...



If you have no idea what I'm talking about, it all starts here, at the Smart Bitches site. And it's even made Fandom Wank...twice.

*sigh*

Goodies!

I'm squeeing today, for my pal Katrina Strauss has a new book out, a m/m yaoi - Blue Ruin 1: Some Kind of Stranger. I had the privilege of reading while it was still in crit and it's a fab, fab book. If you like BDSM, yaoi, or m/m in general you should definitely give it a try!

Play Along at Home!

Let's play spot the spambot on MySpace!



Can you see the spambot? Excellent, I knew you could do it!

Yeah, yeah, I know, I spent too long in elementary ed. BTW, what is it lately with me getting lots of rap acts trying to friend me on MySpace. It's not listed as an interest. I'll friend a band if it's a genre I actually listen to - rock/metal, electronica, alternative, maybe even folk. But rap? I like a wee, wee bit of reggaeton, and that's as close as I get to rap. LOL.

Happy New Year!

Happy New Year to you all! I hope you all had fun on NYE, but not too much... ;-) I know most people are posting their resolutions, but I'm not big on New Years' Resolutions. I think fellow Apple Tyree Kimber said it best: "...the key to New Years resolutions is to make a resolution you actually want to keep, have wanted for a while, and didn't just think of the night before."

So with that in mind, I'd like to...

• spend more time with my friends. Yes, Shelly, Tara, Joanne, Randy and Kay, I'm looking at you.


• finish my WIPs. I have three good ones that all need to be done. That's four months each, get off your lazy ass, Heather.


• exercise more. It would help my health condition and generally improve the quality of my life.

That's my small and do-able list. There's more, but the former educator/therapist in me says go for observable and measurable goals. "Be more patient" or "be more organized" are not observable and measurable. LOL.

May the New Year bring you joy and blessings,

--HS
