I had a bad day on Thursday... Work is crazy and I was in a plain ol' stinky mood. I got home and found a package sitting by the door... what could this be? I had ordered a book online so I got excited as I opened this up until I saw the return address... "Hmmmm".
I ripped the package open and guess what was in there?
I about fell over! That may seem extreme, but if you love books like I do and you saw this, you would have too. Believe me! I screamed like a 5 year old at Disneyland!
I have been waiting for this book for over a year! I won an Advanced Readers Copy of the first book, Courting Trouble, in February 2007. Deep in the Heart of Trouble hits stores in May 2008... I was counting the days.
Deeanne Gist is a phenomenal author who opened my eyes to a whole new world of reading! I "met" her a while back and became a moderator on her chat room with three other awesome women. Dee treats us so well and I don't feel like I'm really doing anything in return! I love being in the chat room talking with fellow book lovers and the highlight of it all is that I've made some great friends there.
Thank you Dee for spoiling us! I appreciate it so very much.
P.S.
I am putting away all books for two weeks, 8 days to go.... Oh, Lord help me! Do you think He's testing me? lol

Oh, man...I'm CRAZY JEALOUS!!!
Oh, man...you ARE being tested, Deb! That would be pure torture! Agony!
Can you at least read the dedication and stuff like that???
I'm with Becky - CRAZY JEALOUS!!! *Sigh* Us other people will have to wait till May. Hey, at least it's only another month.
Oh, Deb, I completely understand that feeling. It's like a special kind of euphoria! If they could bottle that feeling I'd beg for a prescription. ;-)
Cat & Sony - If you're nice or buy me something really good I'll share... haha
Jenster - woohoo! I be starting it at the end of this week... can't wait!
Becky & Shauna - I didn't mean to make you crazy jealous... lol Two more months... two more months.
Ah, the perks of being a moderator!!! It's a beautiful thing! ;-) I'm with Barb...at least share the dedication with us!!!
I don't think sharing the dedication would be a big deal... I will try my hardest to remember to post it here. I haven't had time before now... since the book is at home and I usally blog at work.
