Two faithful readers emailed last night to congratulate me on the review of RIGHT HERE, RIGHT NOW in the newest issue of Romantic Times. My copy has not arrived, but I quickly checked the website and – wowza! – RIGHT HERE, RIGHT NOW got 4 1/2 Stars and is a March Top Pick!
Here is the review:
In this sassy, witty and fast-paced romance, misunderstandings abound as main characters in undercover government jobs juggle intermingled, rocky but humorous relationships. Dimon combines fresh, solid character voices reminiscent of chick lit with love scenes that sizzle with the passion and intensity of any hot erotica. The result is one comical page-turner.
Huge thanks to reviewer Jennifer Madsen for the kind words. I’m ecstatic!
Now, readers complain about romance novel conflicts that amount to nothing more than easily fixable misunderstandings. I knew that and purposely took the idea of a misunderstanding and tried to flip it around in RIGHT HERE, RIGHT NOW. Reed (hero) and Gabby (heroine) lie for a living. They actually can’t tell each other the truth. This isn’t one of those if-they-would-only-talk-to-each-other things. They have these constraints and with that background must discover what they really mean to each other. I’ve described it this way: two people who lie for a living must figure out how to tell each other the truth about how they feel for each other…and they never seem to be telling the truth at the same time. Hence the title.
For the Romantic Times readers among you, I was interviewed by the mystery editor, Diane Snyder for this issue. I haven’t read it yet, but it’s in there. Let me know what you think. Also, if you have a subscription, go into the Bonus Content section of the website. There is a Spotlight on me and included with it is an excerpt you won’t find posted anywhere else. It’s a special treat for Romantic Times subscribers.
For the rest of you (all of you, really), go pre-order this one. It comes out February 26th.
