I’ve known Mariah was a contender for the Joan Hessayon Award of the Romantic Novelists’ Association for some time. There was, however, a press embargo so I wasn’t able to share. The RNA press officers have now lifted the embargo and details of the nine contenders can be read here:

I hope you’ll drop in and see the other eight books.
So, the train tickets, the hotel room, the dress, oh and what else is important when romance writers get together?
That’s it – the shoes. I’ll keep you posted.

That’s wonderful news, Anne. Plenty of time to plan the outfit and a whole month in which to anticipate the event. Good luck.

Hi Ann, think I’ve got the dress in fact, but fashionable shoes are a different matter. It is exciting. I’ve known for so long, but seeing the RNA publicity for the nine contenders has brought it more to home. By the way, thanks for following the blog. It’s great to see familiar faces here. Anne

Good luck with finding those shoes – make sure they are comfortable too! Been busy this month doing the A-Z Blog Challenge. It has been fun and has also kick started a few ideas so worth it too.
