When I checked out the B&N hourly Top Ten romance anthologies yesterday – uh-huh, I do that kind of obsessive thing – I noticed a pattern. It goes like this:
#1 Bad Boys of Summer by Lori Foster, Erin McCarthy and Amy Garvey (Brava, June 2006)
#4 Bad Boys Southern Style by JoAnn Ross, Jill Shalvis and E. C. Sheedy (Brava, July 2006)
#7 When Good Things Happen To Bad Boys by Lori Foster, Erin McCarthy and, well, me (Brava, April 2006)
Not bad. Is it the “Bad Boys” in the title? The covers? The packaging? The implicit promise of hotter stories? A love of Lori Foster and Erin McCarthy (if so, explain #4)? Or, ummm, a coincidence.
Since I have a Bad Boys anthology coming out in August (if you somehow missed all my hints, it’s Viva Las Bad Boys!), I wonder what the secret is here. You know, so I can capitalize on it.
