Our puffball has a name! #winner

Wow, the debate has been quite heated this week as the names rolled in for our new little furbaby.  We tested out a few of them, but none were just right.

Until … THE ONE came along

Although it wasn’t a unanimous vote, we’ve now chosen a name for our newest edition.  Before I spill the beans as to who won the contest, let me tell you why we chose this particular name.

1. This little guy has serious wheels.  He is so fast most of the time I only see a white streak when he runs by and half of the time he spins for a while before he goes anywhere.

2. Trying to sleep with this kitten wrapped around my neck is tantamount to sleeping in an old Volkswagen Rabbit TDI running on two cylinders.

3. He needed a manly name because of his little goatee.

4.  He shares a name with one of the sexiest actors that ever lived.

Any guesses yet?

No?

Okay, okay, I’ll tell you.

The winner of the Name the Puffball contest is:

Tammy D’Aigle

And the name is … dun, dun, dun, duuuuuuun

Diesel!

It’s more of a big kitty name, so right now we’re calling him Little D, and it just feels right.  Asher, from my big sister, Susan, came a close second. Thanks to everyone, especially Tammy, for all of your suggestions.

I’ll be in touch to arrange your prize, Tammy!  Congrats!

Release day! – Touch of Frost

It’s February.  Wow.  I blinked and Halloween was over.  Looked away for a second, and there went Christmas.  Where the heck did January go?  I could have sworn there were thirty-one days in there somewhere, but they, too, zoomed by when I wasn’t paying attention.

Another day I’ve been waiting for has arrived all of a sudden.

RELEASE DAY!!!!!

I’m so excited to share this one.

Here’s the little beauty hitting the virtual markets today in e-book format.  Isn’t it pretty?

Even the simplest of touches between Will Frost and Lauren McLean are forbidden.

To share love will surely mean death.

Since her granddad’s passing, Lauren has existed a few steps out of sync with the world. Desperate to feel the love only he offered her as a child, Lauren returns to the haven they once shared — a snow-covered cabin at the foothills of the Rockies.

It’s not the memory of her granddad that warms her ice-cold, frost-bitten body after being caught in a blizzard, though. It’s the man in whose bed she wakes.

Along with bringing life to her soul, Will stirs deep-rooted memories in Lauren and brings out the love she seeks.

What Will knows about himself — the secrets of his kind — he keeps hidden, forcing Lauren to search for answers, to question and ultimately put her life, and his own existence, in danger.

In love though, there is always a way.

Can Will get around the rules? Or will Lauren give up her life simply to have one last touch from Will Frost?

So raise your glass and help me celebrate.  ::clink::  Cheers!

If you’d like to pick up a copy of this one, here’s a link for you:

To celebrate this release, there are lots of cool posts coming up in the next several weeks featuring lots of giveaways and deep, dark secrets I’ve spilled to only a select few hosting me for my blog tour.  Check back for dates and locations.

It’s a boy! – Name the Puffball Contest

I interrupt my regularly scheduled blog post today to bring you breaking news.

Our family has grown!

Our new little boy is four months old.  His older sister isn’t terribly impressed yet, but I hope she’ll warm up to him soon.

We have one little problem.  Our little boy doesn’t have a name.  So, I thought, who better to help me come up with some good ones than a bunch of authors and readers?

Anyone game?

Yeah?  Cool.

Here’s his picture:

Isn’t he cute?  He’s actually tiny, but next to WeeB he looks full grown.

Here’s another:

Here’s your task.

Drop by as many times as you like and leave name suggestions in the comments below this post.  My family will choose the best one from the list on Friday, February 3rd.  The winner will receive:

1) An ebook copy of Touch of Frost

2) A signed paperback of The Glass Man

3) A signed bookmark for The Glass Man
