I am so humbled and honored to announce that DEBRIEFING THE DEAD (Book One of The Dead Series) has been nominated for Romance Writers of America’s highest honor in published fiction, the RITA® Award. For anyone not familiar with it, this is our equivalent of an Oscar nomination. I can’t even take it all in yet!

And I’m in the same category (Paranormal Romance) with incredible authors, such as Suzanne Brockmann and J.R. Ward. Again — I keep squinting at the finalist list, thinking somehow my name isn’t really on it. But it is. Wow. Pop some champagne with me, ‘cuz I’m CELEBRATING. Squee!!!!!
