A CONTEMPTIBLE AFFECTION Launch Extravaganza

So maybe you guys have noticed some really crazy stuff going on around here. Like me publishing my Regency novella, A CONTEMPTIBLE AFFECTION. Here's the pretty cover:

And the blurb: 

After Lord Dersingham spurned her last season, Iris Colburn promises to never allow him back into her heart, despite his excuses, his long-standing connection to her family, or the fact that she once loved him.

But upon her return from Paris, Iris finds it is more difficult than she expected to keep Lord Dersingham at arm's length. His presence at nearly every social function Iris attends reminds her more of their blissful past than the sting of his rejection. Worse, she fears she is falling for him again.

If it wasn't for his outrageous behavior, that is. He asks Iris' father for permission to court her -- again -- but then showers attention on the disreputable Miss Halliday.

Iris doesn't know what kind of game Lord Dersingham is playing, but with her heart and her pride on the line, she will do anything to win.

I'm in the mood to throw confetti and give away things. Like, well, obviously, copies of A CONTEMPTIBLE AFFECTION (both ebook and paperback) and, in honor of me attempting to write regency, I'm also going to give away something from a true master.

Like how about a copy of Sarah M. Eden's latest, AN UNLIKELY MATCH? (Yeah, sounds good, doesn't it.) What if it was signed?? What do you think now?

Now, stay with me here. I don't get to go to signings for a lot of my favorite authors/friends. (Yes, I'm calling Sarah my friend. Just try and stop me. This is my blog.) I live in Northern Wyoming. Not a lot of them stopping by. Well, Krista Jensen did do a signing in Cody once, but I couldn't make it, which made me mad.

So this is me, posing with Sarah M. Eden:

Ummm, what do you mean you're not buying it? What gave me away? The mismatched skin tone? Hair color? The height? (Yeah, I'm only five-four.)

Okay, so obviously, this signing was in Utah, and people, I am nine months pregnant. I couldn't go. So I sent minions in the form of my FABULOUS sister:

I am going to love her forever. Because she sent me this:

And it was SIGNED!! 

It says: "To Ranee`, who obviously has excellent taste in books. Sara M. Eden P.S. You have lovely minions.

And here's the best news. I had her retrieve two for me. And the other is also signed. And I am giving one away to you, lucky readers.

Yes. You have the chance to win a signed copy of Sarah M. Eden's AN UNLIKELY MATCH.

Feel free to swoon. I would.

So enter. And if you don't win, go buy my novella, A CONTEMPTIBLE AFFECTION on October 22. It will be available on Amazon and Smashwords -- and I will, of course, provide links when I can. :D 

Oh, and buy Sarah's book too. ;)
