At his command...Whatever he needs... The Nanny

Jacqui Moore is on the run - from her emotions - until she meets little orphaned Maisie and is railroaded into becoming her nanny! But the master of the house, Harry Talbot, also steals Jacqui's heart. And now there's nowhere to run...

Feisty redhead Prudence Winslow is down to her last cent when she meets Ryan Kaelan, a real-life prince, and his motherless children who need her. Pru takes the job, thinking it wBasn't Ryan's jaw-dropping sexiness that convinced her...

Max Saunders is shocked to discover he has twin sons. He needs a nanny; Phoebe Gilbert doesn't relish the thought of living with Max, but the boys want her! Max thinks Phoebe could be a convenient wife. Will she marry him for the twins...?

It's always fun to see a favourite book re-issued. This one is my "Jack & the Beanstalk" story, with Maisie, a gorgeous little diva, driving the plot.

It's available from this weekend, retail, at Mills and Boon and at Amazon - both in paper and as an eBook download.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

May 2009 bring you everything your heart desires.

Health, happiness and peace.

May the words flow without ceasing, the reviews all be five star and the covers make you weep with joy.

And very special congratulations to

HARLEQUIN

who this year celebrate their

DIAMOND JUBILEE!

I'm delighted to be part of the celebrations and you can sign up to

HARLEQUIN CELEBRATES

where you'll be able to download books, including

The Bride's Baby

for free all year.

The fireworks are also to celebrate the re-issue
in large print of

HIS LITTLE GIRL

It was my first ever RITA-nominated book.

At £8.99 it's a little expensive to buy (although with the way the pound is at the moment, not as expensive as it might have been!) but will be available worldwide in libraries, so do ask for it if you haven't read it.

Also available in January

REUNITED: MARRIAGE IN A MILLION

will be published in Germany in an anthology with Lynne Graham, Lucy Monroe and Cara Colter. More details here

And there's a French reprint of

ALL SHE WANTS FOR CHRISTMAS

in an anthology with Sara Craven and Charlotte Maclay.

More details of that one here

JUST WHEN YOU THINK 2007 IS ALL OVER...

...someone leaves a message about an award nomination. Well, when I'd checked my inbox I discovered what it's all about.

THE SECRET LIFE OF LADY GABRIELLA has been shortlisted by Romantic Times as Best Harlequin Romance of the year, along with Ally Blake, Trish Wylie, Claire Baxter and Cara Colter. What great company!

And -- there's more. I'm also nominated for a Career Achievement Love & Laughter Award. I'm in great company there, too, with Teresa Southwick also nominated for a Career Achievement award -- although not in the same category, so that's extra good!

Other great nominations are Michelle Douglas for her First Series Romance, HIS CHRISTMAS ANGEL, which you can still catch if you're quick. And Natasha Oakley for her Niroli series Presents, The Tycoon's Princess Bride.
