Lol, Lucinda.
I still think he would have directed me downstairs. I did visit Murder One, the premier romance independent in London–they are literally packed to the rafters with romance and a hugely supportive of the genre. The RT with my cover was up on the wall–and the romance expert recognized me from my picture (no mean feat, considering I was a bit windblown by then).
They had a great selection of Aphrodisia books.
I was in Hatchards bookstore on Picadilly, which has been in existence since 1797. Only one Aphrodisia there and that was Rachelle’s The Sex Lounge. I left some promo material, so hopefully they’ll pick up more!

Hi Little Lamb,
It was a terrific trip–I also went out to Dartmoor for research, which was an incredible experience too. Especially when I got temporarily lost on the moors. Apparently Anthony Hopkins was filming a werewolf movie out there in the summer.
I have an upcoming book set on Dartmoor, but no paranormal. However, the amazing legends do inspire. I’m planning to post some tales on my site soon.

I wonder what would have happened if you showed the butler the cover of you on the front of RT?!

Sharon,

It sounds like you had some great fun and memorable experiences on your trip.

Truly enjoyed your excerpt and love how the hero explained the attraction of his fantasy.

Hi Caffey
That’s a good idea–I must write a heroine who gets thrown off the steps. I have to admit, it is tempting to write about infiltrating those exclusively male places. We even saw gentlemen at the desks, tending to their correspondence.

Blood Deep is sort of a final book for the trilogy, as the heroes are the villains of the first 2 books, but I could certainly do more. Right now, I’m going to have a historical out with Dell Books called The Club (in Feb 09) which is hot (and bordering on erotic–actually quite hot I realize, as I’m review galleys right now), and I’m working on the new series with Dell–Prison Break meets Jane Austen. I’m hoping to write another erotic paranormal when I get a bit further along in the current book. I’d love to do another vampire story–hopefully, editors feel the market is still good for them!

Hi Sharon!!! Now you must write a scene about someone being taken off the steps of White’s!!! I always love reading about scenes in Whites. Some day I have to look it up so I can learn more about it because I was always fastinated with it. I wish I could go on these ‘research’ trips, yeah right, ‘research’ But I don’t write so my hubby will probably tell me to look it up, LOL.

Thats the last of the Vampire trilogy or there plans for more stories Sharon? And the historical one, those continuing or other trilogy starting? I hope both continue to come in those genres, they are both my favorite genres and I really look forward to yours! I do have HOT SILK on my wishlist to get! Thanks for that tease excerpt from HOT SILK!

Do you have more pics of your trip? I too wondered about those streets named in the books and have never seen them! Again, big hello!
