Week ahead with Christie Craig
November 15th, 2009 by Edie Ramer
We’re delighted to have Christie Craig as our guest this Thursday. An Alabama native, Christie is an award-winning, multi-published writer, multi-published photo journalist, motivational speaker, and writing teacher. A Golden Heart finalist, and a finalist in more than fifty RWA-sponsored contests, she has gained a well-deserved reputation for writing romance fiction that has both witty humor and a suspenseful, sexy tone. Published by Silhouette in the 90s, she recently broke back into fiction in a big way, making four book sales in one day.
DIVORCED, DESPERATE AND DECEIVED, the last of her Divorced and Desperate books, will be released Nov. 24th. Her next writing adventure is a young adult paranormal romance series, Bone Creek Camp, that will be published by St. Martins Press in the near future.
One lucky commenter of her guest blog on Thursday will win an autographed copy of DIVORCED, DESPERATE AND DECEIVED.
Romantic Times gave DIVORCED, DESPERATE AND DECEIVED a Top Pick 4 1/2 stars. Publishers Weekly says: “The action only stops long enough for steamy passion in this fast-paced conclusion to Craig’s contemporary romance trilogy (after 2008’s Divorced, Desperate and Dating). “
Cover copy for DIVORCED, DESPERATE AND DECEIVED:
Of the Divorced, Desperate and Delicious club, Kathy Callahan is the last surviving member. Oh, her two friends haven’t died or anything. They just gave up their vows of chastity. They went for hot sex with hot cops and happy second marriages—something Kathy can never consider, given her past. Yet there’s always her plumber, Stan Bradley. He seems honest, hardworking…and skilled with a tool.
PLUMB CRAZY
Kathy’s best-laid plans are about to hit a clog. The guy snaking her drain isn’t what he seems. He’s handier with a pistol than a pipe wrench, and she’s about to see more action than Jason Statham. The next forty-eight hours promise hot pursuit, hotter passion and a super perky pug. And at the end of this wild escapade, Kathy and her own undercover lawman will be flush with happiness . . . assuming they both survive.
