HAPPY ANNIVERSARY, MUSA!

Thanks for stopping in!

Participation on my blog is really easy. All you need to do is become one of my blog followers. Simply click the Join This Site icon on the sidebar and you're automatically entered for a chance to win a free download of my latest release MASQUERADE.

Here's a sneak preview.

Behind every mask is a fragment of truth.

Chicagoan Clancy Marshall has planned her dream vacation in Venice down to the last detail. From gondola rides to masked balls, and anything else that just happens along, she is determined to experience all pleasures. But those careful plans fly out the door when she literally falls into the arms of a masked stranger.

Vittore Ricci comes from an old Venetian family that claims two doges in their lineage. A straight-laced Count and owner of a prestigious hotel, he never does anything without serious consideration. Until a sexy American tourist falls into his arms.

To read an excerpt from MASQUERADE, please click HERE.

Be sure to join the party on October 7th at The Romance Review Forum to enter to win even more prizes.

Good luck and thanks for hopping!!

Sloane

Prizes you ask? Well, I'm happy to tell you. Everyone who plays receives a goodie packet. There will be four top winners who will have their choice of one book from the Naughty Ladies of Nice series.

Feel free to look at my website and blog where you'll find all the answers.
