I have long dreamed of writing for a big New York City publishing house. At the top of my list for years were Kensington Brava and Silhouette Desire.  Well, I don’t write for either of those imprints, but I do write for their sister imprints, with Aphrodisia and Spice. And I am currently trying to plead (okay, propose) my way into Harlequin’s Brava line.

So while the dream is skewed just a bit, it has still come true. And what a wonderful feeling!!

This Tuesday, the 1st, marked my Harlequin debut, with the release of Hot For It, a SPICE Brief, which gives a glimpse at my characters from the What Happens In Vegas… anthology out May 1st.  Or, for those lucky enough to be attending RT, Lauren and Anya will be signing early copies of Vegas there. I won’t get to make RT this year unfortunately, but I will do my best to get out bookplates to either Lauren or Anya this week, so that at least my signature (which is mostly illegible , can attend).

I am still waiting for site reviews to come in on Hot For It, but I was lucky to get a very nice early snippet from USA Today Bestseller, Sunny…

“Jodi Lynn Copeland writes hot, hot, hot! Have a fan ready before reading Hot For It. Steamy sex and tender love…it’ll have you aching for more.”

And I am also very lucky to be spending some time on Jennifer’s Random Musing’s Blog April 8th through the 10th. Or more correctly, Carinna, the heroine from these two stories will be spending time on the blog. Jennifer interviewed Carinna this past weekend in preparation of her visit. I found her responses very insightful, so I think you will as well. Be sure to drop on by if you have some free time this coming week.

Until then, best wishes for a wonderful weekend! I am finally getting caught up on my writing and feeling pretty decent, too, so I plan to take advantage with some serious R&R and bonding time with the hubby & kidlets.
