Work has still be rather work-y this week, but Grey and I have started tagging again, so things are slowly getting back to normal.  Our third book in the Creatures of Sin series has been “done” for awhile now, but neither of us were happy with how it finished up.  We had three-fourths of a solid book, which is frustrating as hell.  But we finally figured out how to fix things.  Yay!  And I think we address several of the issues some readers out there have had with the previous two books.  As an added bonus, there’s more sex and Montgomery…sadly not more sex with Montgomery.  David can dream, however.

Once we re-wrap up book three, we do need to figure out our next project.  Definitely an India venture.  Beyond that, we’ll know when it hits us.  And Grey just loves not having a plan.

Pop on over to AllRomanceeBooks.com and check out Unshuttered, written by Grey and I as, well, Grey and I.   Be warned as this story is light, fun, contains excessive caffeine consumption, and inappropriate darkroom behavior.  And not only do you get a fantastic read for you money, but all proceeds go to the American Heart Association.  So go, read, and support a very good cause.

Last fall we were at the Collingswood Book Festival talking with some of our author friends about what they were working on, and we were reminded by our good friend and collegue Cat Johnson about All Romance Ebooks‘ upcoming 28 Days of Heart fundraiser to benefit the American Heart Association.  At the time we were struggling with what to do next for the Creatures of Sin series.  David and Carver aren’t done with us yet, but Commander Montgomery really wanted some time in the light as well.  This seemed like the perfect opportunity to take advantage of that.  So we did.

For one week every year, Christopher Montgomery sets aside the responsibility that comes with being the commander of Pittsburgh’s Zone Six police district. He gets as far away from home as possible to indulge in a hedonistic vacation on a gay cruise in the Caribbean, where he loses himself in the casualness of encounters with much younger men. Then he meets Kieran.

Kieran Phillips doesn’t know what he is looking for except to get away by taking a weeklong cruise friendly to his lifestyle, until he comes across the rugged detective. Then he can’t help but throw a wrench into Chris’ plans for a decadent vacation full of casual encounters with younger men by showing him the benefits of age and experience.

It’s available now for pre-order at the ARe website.  Go pick up a copy, and while you’re there, check out some of the other great M/M, threesome and het titles being offered during this great fundraiser.  Over the next few weeks, we’ll have some of these authors stopping by to chat about their books and their writing process, so we hope you’ll come by and meet them as well!

Sorry for the sudden disappearance.  With all the best intentions, we went about a reorg on the webhosting site this weekend and instead of improving things, we managed to delete the entire database for the India Harper site.  *headdesk*  So, instead of writing and knitting this weekend as planned, we spent a good chunk of time reconstructing the pages here.  There’s still some more work to do, and unfortunately our previous, pithy posts are now gone, but hopefully in the next few days, everything will be back up along with excerpts and some other goodies.

It’s always the business of writing that seems to take so much more time than actual writing.  Or at least it feels that way.

But there are lots of goodies coming, including our entry in the 28 Days of Heart fundraiser at Allromanceebooks.com and hopefully some interviews with the authors who are participating in it with us.  We’ll keep you posted!

We’ll be up and running again shortly.  Sorry for any inconvenience.
