First up—readers are asking me daily now when Yours To Keep will be available to pre-order from Barnes & Noble for the Nook. I really, really wish I had an answer for that. I’m checking several times a day, but so far all I’m getting for the effort is frustration. All I can say is that it will, at some point, definitely be available for the Nook. It’s currently available for pre-order directly from Carina Press and from Amazon for the Kindle/Kindle apps.

Despite starting our weekend stuck in a McDonald’s waiting for the hail to stop, some breathtaking thunder & lightening storms, and Deet-resistant hordes of mosquitoes, we had a good weekend. I put about 70 miles on my machine, which isn’t much for a long weekend, but considering how much of the trail system was under water or washed out, it wasn’t bad.

I did take some time out to curl up on my deck and read Unlocked, a novella by Courtney Milan. I don’t read a lot of post-Medieval historicals, so I can’t tell you if it was Victorian or Regency or what, but I can tell you it had an Earl and a Lady, and it was very, very good. Very unusual and emotional and engrossing and romantic, and very much worth more than the 99-cent price tag. I ignored the lure of my four-wheeler, mud puddles and chocolate-frosted brownies to finish it, so you know it was good!

Less than a week until Yours To Keep releases!
