Weekly Announcements - 12 Jan 08

Sorry I'm late! Here goes:

Carrie Lofty's short story "Sundial" has received a solid review from The Good, the Bad and the Unread:

It's like Picasso does time-travel romance. I will be sad if it misses the audience who will enjoy it because it definitely isn't for everyone. It will be a gem for those looking for something unusual. I'll be looking for more from this author.

Jennifer Mueller's novel Samburu Hills has been named one of Dear Author's best ebooks of 2007.

Havana Holiday by Jennifer MuellerAlso, Jennifer's newest release "Havana Holiday," a novella set in 1930s Cuba, was released this week.
5 stories, 4 days, 3 nights, 2 times the fun, and 1 heck of a good time. Dahlia, Eve, Nora, Alice, and Marianne; when five women who work together in Depression-era Boston save up for a trip of a lifetime to decadent Havana, anything can happen. With seductive Latin men and rich vacationers at every turn who wouldn't enjoy dancing till dawn, the parties, the nightclubs, the beach, the gambling, and there's always more than one side to a story.

Who can ask for more, fun, sun and hot men to tempt and tease?
