Happy Friday! Thanks to everyone who participated in the RWA tote bag/books/USB contest! I didn’t get to respond to everyone, but I so appreciate you all stopping by. Hopefully I’ll be meeting all of you at RWA or some other conference some time in the near future.
I have some news this morning. I’ll be writing a series for Berkley called One Night of Passion, involving lovers from a connection of friends and family. The common thread is that each book starts out with an impulsive, steamy one night stand. Of course a lifetime of love follows, but each couple has some struggles to go from one night to true love forever. I got my back cover copy for ADDICTED TO YOU, the first in the series, so I’m including it here along with an awesome Julie James quote (she was so great, the amount of thought she put into it) and Lea’s COVER COMING SOON guy. I’ll be sure and showing you the new cover when I get it. Part of the news is that I’ll be writing this series under another pen name, Bethany Kane! I hope you like it, it’s similar to Beth Kery, but different. I’ll continue to publish under Beth Kery, as well.
Addicted to You
Genre: Erotic/Contemporary
Bethany Kane
A One Night of Passion Novel
“A fabulous, sizzling hot friends-to-lovers story–you’ll be addicted from page one!” Julie James, National Best Selling author of Something About You
All it takes is a moment for your life to change—
one night of desire to make you feel alive…
Irish film director Rill Pierce fled to the tiny, backwoods town of Vulture ‘s Canyon, seeking sanctuary and solitude after a devastating tragedy. Once, his raw sex appeal and sultry Irish accent made women across the globe swoon. Now, he’s barely recognizable…
But Katie Hughes, his best friend’s sister, is not the type of woman to give up on a man like Rill. She blazes into Vulture’s Canyon determined to save him from himself. Instead, she finds herself unleashing years of pent-up passion. In a storm of hunger and need, Katie and Rill forget themselves and the world. But will Rill’s insatiable attraction to Katie heal his pain—or will it just feed the darkness within him?
Look for Addicted to You to be on the shelves next June!

Hi Beth
Glad your pen name is Bethany Kane. The books will still have “BK” moments LOL. I take it the pen name is for a different genre of books?

Hi Lori, Natasha and Mary!
Addicted to You is the first in a series that we’re trying to package with cohesive covers, themes, etc, so Bethany Kane will be the author of that. :)
Thanks for stopping by all, and congrats to Kammie.
