Tricia Jones <triciajjones>


I write contemporary romance with strong heroes who like their own way and heroines who give as good as they get. My first book, His Convenient Affair, is now available from Samhain Publishing, followed in Spring 2008 by Satin Lies. January 2008 sees the release of The Diamond Virgin from Wings ePress, followed by A Temporary Arrangement from The Wild Rose Press.

My reading tastes are virtually anything and everything, as long as there is a happy ending. Paranormals are right up there at the moment, especially vampires. I do love a vampire!

**His Convenient Affair gets 4.5 Ribbons from Romance Junkies. Reviewer, JennL, said it was: "... an emotional rollercoaster that will have you at times laughing and then crying ... powerful and beautifully written ... a story with depth and emotion that will leave you anxious and breathless."

"My first book is released today! Nine months from sale to publication ... I feel like a proud mama!" (39 weeks ago) me too!

New Year, New Release
Today sees the release of The Diamond Virgin from Wings ePress. This was my very first contracted book, so it's very special to me.

The Diamond Virgin tells the story of Paige Frasier, an English photojournalist. Rebuilding her career following her father’s death, Paige is blackmailed into covering the latest tabloid scandal involving a press-hating billionaire. She isn’t prepared for the secrets of the past that threaten her fragile peace, or for the devastating attraction to the one man who holds the key to her future.

You can find an excerpt here: http://www.wings-press.com/excerpts/...

Happy New Year to all.

Phew!
Life has been hectic. I'm eagerly awaiting the final sign-off for The Diamond Virgin which releases from Wings ePress in January 2008. This was the first book I had contracted and so it's very special to me.

I've also just finished galleys for my forthcoming release with The Wild Rose Press. Now all I'm waiting on is the release date for A Temporary Arrangement - very exciting.

But just in case you think I'm getting some slack-off time ... I've already received first edits on the May 2008 release with Samhain, so now I'll need to get cracking on Satin Lies.

Strange woman that I am, I just love the editing process. Revisiting the story is always fun, but it's the strenthening of the work, the tightening, the stripping down to the basics that really lights me up. There's always so much to learn. Plus, I've been incredibly lucky to work with such awesome editors who really know their stuff, and yet are patient, kind and understanding. I hope they're all planning on taking a long and relaxing break over the holidays. They deserve it.

Hi Tricia, thanks for the add! I noticed you mentioned the 'mad' phase of promo after the release of your first story. Sigh, I'm there now, well almost. Any tips? Lord, would I appreciate them!
