Email Inbox Surprise
Thursday morning started out pretty normal. Up at the crack of dawn, quick get ready to go work-out. I was spending quality time with the elliptical at my local LA Fitness when my iPhone rang out–ooooops, forgot to silence it.
Well, since it dinged…..I clicked open my email.
Subject line read: YOUR BOOK HAS BEEN CHOSEN BEST READ OF 2011
Yes. I totally almost fell off my elliptical.
Thankfully I didn’t because I would have broken something. Probably my hand, and that would mean no more typing for a while. **worst nightmare EVER**
Okay, so, with shaking fingers, me trying NOT to fall, and resisting the urge to start hyperventilating I open the message.
Turns out theParanormal Romance Guild’sreviewers get together and pick their favorite reads over the past year. Then they put them out there for the READERS to vote on.
Now, I know it sounds corny, but I truly am honored just to be nominated. I mean, look at the other nominees? HOLY COW.
Your task, should you choose to accept is:
Yep, just CLICK HERE and you’ll be at their website. Feel free to spread the word, too.
Thanks for your support, everyone. You guys ROCK!
