Everyone's writing digital novellas these days. Why should I be different? THE SECOND SEDUCTION OF A LADY is coming to your e-reader on October 16th. As a reader, I enjoy these long short stories and I'm excited at my first effort in this short form. At 26,000 words, it's a little less than the third the length of a full length novel: just the thing for a quiet evening without keeping you up all night to finish.

Eleanor Hardwick and Max Quinton shared one night of incredible passion…that was shattered the next day, when Eleanor learned of a bet placed by Max's friends. Now, five years later, Max still can't get Eleanor out of his head or his heart. He has a single chance to make a second impression—one that will last forever.

 Although it's a completely stand alone story, the novella introduces the heroine of THE IMPORTANCE OF BEING WICKED. Set seven years earlier, we meet the fun-loving Caro as a seventeen-year-old girl, about to make choices that will profoundly affect her future.

But this story is about Eleanor and Max overcoming the mistakes and misunderstandings of the past. You can read the first mini-excerpt on my Facebook page now. I'll be posting a longer one on my website next month.

By the way, if you don't care to read ebooks, The Second Seduction of a Lady will be available for order as a cute little printed book.
