It's not often that I have two books released in one day! First up, DRIVE YOU WILD, book 3 in the Love Between the Bases series, is out today in both ebook and paperback. The reviews have been phenomenal. Here are a few of them. <br />
<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<span style="color: purple;"><span style="color: black;">They say there is no crying in
baseball. Well, Jennifer Bernard threw that myth right out of the
ballpark. Not only did I cry, but I balled like a baby. Trevor Stark and
Paige Taylor tore me apart and then put me back together again, piece
by piece. ~ Kitty, Guilty Pleasures </span><strong><br /></strong></span></blockquote>

What joy it is when an author hits all the right notes with such ease! Jennifer
Bernard has woven exceptional characters into a fabulous baseball story, along
with a beautiful romance and quite a bit of suspense added to the mix, and
makes it work like nobody's business</span>

When pop star Starly Minx freezes onstage during a show, she
knows what her guilty conscience is telling her. She has to make things right
with her nemesis, Hope Falls’ own Karina Black. And she has to do it without
the paparazzi finding out. If only she didn’t have to leave behind the man
she’s been secretly pining for—her sinfully hot bodyguard Hunter McGraw.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Hunter just turned in his resignation. He desperately needs
to get some distance from the distracting, enchanting Starly and get on with
his life. But if she’s going to Hope Falls, he’s going after her. Who else is
going to keep her out of trouble? And with two feuding pop stars in the same
tiny town, trouble is inevitable. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
They can deal with the paparazzi. They can deal with the curious
Hope Falls residents. But can they keep their feelings secret from each other?
Is that even possible when every touch has them seeing stars? </div>

This is going to be crazy, y'all! But I'm going for it, and if you are too, I'd love to meet you or see you again if we've met before. Here are the places/times I'm guaranteed to be. But if we cross paths in the hotel bar, at a party, or at the blackjack table, do say "hi"! <br />
<br />
<ul>
<li>Wednesday at 9:30pm: Vintage Vegas party - Avon's salon is the "Stardust Lounge," I'll be there from 9:30 - 10:30.</li>
<li>
Thursday at 2:45: Prospera's Table. Come play blackjack, poker, and other
games for Avon swag and prizes. I'll be at the blackjack table because <span class="text_exposed_show">that's all I know how to play. </span></li>
<li> Thursday 5-6: Reader meet-and-greet with Erin Nicholas, Candis Terry, Samantha Chase and Melanie Shawn at a TBA hotel bar.</li>
<li> Friday 4-5:30: Bling it On. Avon's free book signing with sweet treats and wine.</li>
<li> Saturday 11-2: The Giant Book Fair. I'll be signing in Row 5.</li>
<li>
Saturday at 8:00: LizBeth Selvig and I will be holding our traditional
reader appreciation party in our hotel suite, which is also TBA. This
year we'll be joined by Maxine Mansfield.</li>
</ul>
<div class="text_exposed_show">
If you'd like to attend
the " location TBA" events, email me at JenniferBernardBooks@gmail.com
and I'll add you to the list! I'll let you know the instant we've pinned
down the details.<br />
<br />
I hope to see you there!!<br />
<br />
xoxo<br />

Sale alert!! </div>
<br />
<br />
It's not often that your most recent book goes on sale for only 99 cents! But baseball season is starting and my publisher wants to celebrate. Bring on the cracker jacks! CAUGHT BY YOU will be available in ebook at all online retailers for $.99 for a limited time, so grab it while you can. This book has a 5-star rating on Amazon and RT calls it an "utterly sensational romance" with "addictive chemistry."<br />

This story was originally part of Literary Escapism's Black Friday event. I'm posting it here for those of you who want more Mike Solo, the hero of CAUGHT BY YOU. Baseball and shopping, what could go wrong ... or right? </div>
<h3 class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-align: center; text-indent: 0.5in;">
<b>THE BOYS OF WINTER</b> </h3>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
As a professional
baseball player, catcher Mike Solo considered the time between the World Series
and the start of Spring Training pretty much a wasteland of workouts and
off-season trade rumors. Every gray November day, every dark December night
brought him closer to the start of the next baseball season, when life began
again. And every year, right around Christmas Eve, it sank in that something
else happened in the off-season. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
Christmas
shopping. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
Make that
Christmas shopping for his entire family of six brothers and sisters, parents,
uncles, aunts, cousins, and lately, little nieces and nephews. Honestly, it was
surprising that Chicago had room for the entire Solo family. His list was
enormous and his shopping time was running out. In baseball terms, he was down
to the last inning and he hadn’t yet gotten a hit. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
Time to swing for
the fences.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
Time to dig deep. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
Time to hit the
malls. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
The last few
years, he’d resorted to gift certificates. This year, he was determined to shop
for real presents selected with his own two hands. Nothing else would get him
to set foot on Chicago’s famous Magnificent Mile, a eight-block stretch of
pricey boutiques and soaring skyscrapers crammed with department stores. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
As he made his way
down Michigan Avenue, Mike hunched against the bitter wind blowing off the lake.
It felt like icicles slicing through his coat. This was why he’d never been
interested in hockey. Give him green grass, blue skies and a sunburned neck any
day. He was a baseball guy down to his core. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
Much as he
detested shopping, Mike had to admit that the city had done a spectacular job
decorating the Magnificent Mile. Fairy lights were strung through the
bare-branched trees lining the sidewalks. Storefronts offered elaborate displays
of gingerbread houses, giant candy canes, evergreen adornments. An early
snowstorm had left behind piles of snow, which managed to look festive instead
of dingy in the gathering twilight. The sidewalks were thronged with bundled-up
shoppers. A fake Santa Claus wandered through the crowds, bellowing, “Ho ho ho”
and handing out flyers for the mall. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
Mike gritted his
teeth and forged down the sidewalk. How hard could this be, anyway? People
survived Christmas shopping all the time. If he could hit a knuckleball, he
could handle this, right? He scanned the dizzying lineup of stores – Prada,
Cole-Haan, American Girl, the Lego Store. Should he get the boys Legos? Or were
they a choking hazard at this age? Did his dad need new shoes? Should he blow
his entire budget on a single item from Prada? Maybe his sisters could pass it
around. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
Maybe he should
have made a list first. Maybe he should have started before Christmas Eve.
Maybe he should go home and admit this was a huge mistake.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
He was in the
midst of turning back when something whipped through the air toward him. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">This</i>, he could handle. He threw up one
hand and snatched the flying object before it could hit him. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
A snowball. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
He spun around to
find a skinny boy in a Chicago Bulls jacket gawking at him. “How’d you do that,
dude?” the boy asked in amazement. He looked to be about twelve, with a full
head of frizzy hair. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
“It’s what I do.
I’m a catcher.” He tossed the snowball, which was really more of a chunk of
dirty ice, back toward the kid. “You know, baseball.” </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
The boy tried to
catch the ice ball, but missed. “I know baseball. It’s my second favorite
sport.” </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
Mike raised an
eyebrow. “Let me guess. Bulls fan?” </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
“This is Chicago,
ain’t it?” </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
Another snowball
winged through the air. Mike had to dive for this one. He flung his arm out,
snagging it before it could hit the fake Santa just passing by. “Hey,” Mike
called to the snowball hurler. “Watch it, will you?” </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
A second boy
skidded down the sidewalk and joined the first one. Slightly younger, he wore
torn jeans, high-tops, and glasses held in place by a headband. “Sorry, Mister!
I wasn’t aiming at Santa. I was trying to hit my brother.” </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
The Santa stopped
next to Mike and put his hands on his hips. “Got some troublemakers here?” </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
“No!” Both boys
said at one. “We’re chill. We’re not doing nothing bad.” </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
“Where are your
parents?” Mike asked them. “What are you doing out here?”</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
They exchanged
guilty looks. “Mom’s working at the food court in the mall.” The brother in the
Bulls jacket indicated Water Tower Place, one of the multi-story megaplexes on
the Mag Mile. “We got bored and she told us to come outside and play.” </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
“She’s working on
Christmas Eve?” </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
“Yeah, Christmas
too. It’s okay. She gets overtime.” But Mike could tell it wasn’t okay. Both
boys had that long-faced look that meant their holiday season was likely full
of disappointments.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
Mike exchanged a
glance with Santa. Behind the long white beard and little wire-rimmed glasses,
he could tell this Santa was on the young side. “I don’t know about you, Santa,
but I have a real problem with this situation.” He offered Santa a wink, hoping
he’d play along. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
Santa nodded and
stroked his fake beard. “Young troublemakers throwing snowballs in the middle
of Michigan Avenue? Darn right it’s a problem.” </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
“It’s not that so
much. It’s the baseball taking second place to basketball. I’m not okay with
that. You a Cubs fan, Santa?” </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
“White Sox.” </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
“I can work with
that. Hang on.” A sixty-ish woman was walking by, several rolls of wrapping
paper poking out of her tote bag. “Ma’am, I’ll give you twenty bucks for one of
those tubes.” When she hesitated, he said quickly, “make it fifty.” </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
With a beaming
smile, she handed over a roll of red and gold striped paper in exchange for the
cash. Triumphant, he turned back to Santa and the boys. “We have a bat! Now,
for a field.” He jogged to a spot across the street where a storefront sat
empty save for a “For Lease” sign. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
“You.” He pointed
to the kid with the Bulls jacket. “You have a pretty good arm. You pitch. Little
brother, you’re up first. Santa, how are you at fielding?” </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
“All-City, two years
in a row.” </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
“Our lucky night.”
Mike exchanged a high-five with Santa. “Let’s show these kids why baseball’s
the best game in the world.” </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
Looking around, he
realized that the woman with the wrapping paper had stopped to watch, and other
shoppers were pausing in their headlong rush down the Mile. In fact, a small crowd
had gathered. He crouched over a spot that seemed like a good place for home
plate. The kid with the glasses took a few practice swings with the roll of
wrapping paper. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
“Pitcher provides
the balls!” Mike called to the older brother. Laughing, the boy scooped up some
snow and packed it into a tight ball. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
“Y’all ready for
this?” He made an exaggerated show of winding up and flinging the ball toward
Mike. The younger boy swung and missed. Mike caught the ball in his mittened
hands, where it fell apart in a spray of snow crystals. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
“Strike one,”
someone called. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
A few yards behind
the pitcher, Santa clapped encouragement. “Hey, batter batter. You got this.” A
few more voices called from the crowd. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
“Come on, kid …
keep your eye on the snowball … swing, baby, swing …” </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
The next ice ball
must have been more tightly packed, because when the boy swung, the roll of wrapping
paper <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">thunk</i>ed against it and sent it
soaring overhead. It shed icy sparkles in the fairy lights twinkling from the
trees. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
“I got it, I got
it,” yelled Santa. The crowd cleared the way for him. He caught it softly
against the chest of his red Santa suit. The bystanders erupted into applause. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
“Need someone to
play first base?” A businessman in a long gray overcoat stepped forward. A
little girl bundled into a neon orange parka held his hand. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
“Can I bat next,
Santa?” she asked eagerly. “I love baseball.” </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
“Sure thing,” said
Santa. “I bet you’re going to knock it out of the park.” </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
Her face lit up. Mike
beckoned her toward the ‘plate.’ The boy with the glasses handed her the roll
of wrapping paper, which was nearly as tall as she was. Warm laughter spread
through the crowd. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
“Hey, I’ll cover
the outfield,” said a college-aged kid in a thick hoodie. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
Mike gave him a
“welcome to it,” gesture. The pitcher packed another snowball and, nice and
easy, tossed an underhand throw toward the girl in the orange parka. She
whacked it to the ground, where it skipped once, twice, then broke apart. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
“Fair ball,” Mike
roared. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
“Run, sweetheart!
Run!” Her father yelled from ‘first base.’ The crowd shouted and whooped as she
scurried toward her father. Laughing his head off, the pitcher bent to pick up
the remains of his snowball. His younger brother cheered for the little girl as
if she’d just gotten a hit in the World Series. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
Mike met Santa’s
eyes, and they both grinned.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
For one enchanted moment,
everyone stopped hurrying, stopped worrying about what was left on their
shopping lists, stopped racing through Christmas Eve. Everyone forgot about the
cold wind and gritty snow. For one moment, summer reigned on the Magnificent
Mile as baseball—or was it snow-ball—worked its magic on a random collection of
shoppers. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
And, best of all,
two boys had the time of their lives. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
Mike would once
again be doling out his traditional gift certificates on Christmas Day. But as
he looked around at the shining faces around him, he figured it was worth it. </div>

<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays! </span></h3>
I hope you're enjoying this wonderful time of year. In celebration of the season, I wrote a free holiday short starring catcher Mike Solo, the hero of <b>Caught By You</b>. See what happens when Mike brings his baseball magic to Chicago's Magnificent Mile on Christmas Eve. <a href="http://www.literaryescapism.com/48261/blackfriday-boys-of-winter-by-jennifer-bernard">Click here </a>to read <b>The Boys of Winter</b> at Literary Escapism. I hope you enjoy it!<br />
And don't forget, <b>Caught By You</b> will be <a href="http://jenniferbernard.net/caught-by-you.php">coming your way</a> on December 29. Warm holiday wishes to you and your family! </div>

At the moment CAUGHT BY YOU begins, they've already known each other the whole season. Which means that the scene in which they meet never got completely written. It wasn't so much "deleted" as "never existed." I fixed that, and here it is for your reading enjoyment! </span>If you've read either book, you might recognize a couple moments.

<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Book Antiqua";">Donna MacIntyre wasn’t nearly as buzzed as
she was pretending to be. People at the Kilby Roadhouse expected her to play
the wild and funny party girl, especially on her birthday. If it helped get her
best friend Sadie out of her cubicle of sadness, she’d turn cartwheels across
the floor while juggling maraschino cherries with her teeth. Whatever it took. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Book Antiqua";">Bumping into a couple of insanely attractive
men with physiques that screamed “athlete” was just a bonus. Even better, the
sight of the blue-eyed one had made Sadie nearly drop the two White Russians she’d
fetched for them. Verrrry interesting, considering Sadie hadn’t even glanced at
a guy since the horrible Hamilton Wade breakup. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Book Antiqua";">“What’s your name, cowboy?” From her perch
on one of the tables, Donna flirtatiously touched his leg with her booted foot
– it was a test, and it got just the reaction she wanted out of Sadie. If that
wasn’t jealousy in her friend’s gorgeous dark eyes, she’d eat her faux-alligator
boot. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Book Antiqua";">“Caleb Hart.” </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Book Antiqua";">“I’ve heard of you. You’re on the Catfish.
I’m Donna and this is Sadie.” No time for subtlety. Sadie’s happiness was too
important. “You should really ask her to dance, because even though she’s
acting kind of strange right now, she’s super cool. Like, the bestest of the bestest.”
</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Book Antiqua";">Caleb shot an amused glance at Sadie, who
made a little face to indicate Donna’s buzzed state. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Book Antiqua";">Well, guess what, she wasn’t drunk at all.
She had a master plan here, and so far it was working. “Besides, she doesn’t go
out much anymore.” Donna leaned forward, nearly toppling off the table. “She
had a <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">bad experience</i>.”</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Book Antiqua";">Okay, maybe she was a tiny bit buzzed. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><span style="font-family: "Book Antiqua";">“Donna.”
</span></i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Book Antiqua";">“It’s my birthday and I can say what I want.
Besides, I can see the sparks flyin’ here.” She waved her hand back and forth
between Caleb and Sadie. They both looked kind of stunned by that statement, so
when Caleb’s curly-haired friend returned with two Lone Stars, she jumped on
the distraction. “And I think your friend’s a hottie, Caleb Hart. I’ve decided
to put my money on those cute little dimples.”<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Book Antiqua";">“Now that’s an interesting bet,” said Caleb.
“We’ll leave you to it. Let’s go, Sadie.” He grabbed Sadie’s free hand and
tugged her toward the dance floor. Donna wanted to pump her fist in triumph. A
sexy ballplayer was just what Sadie needed. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Book Antiqua";">Caleb’s friend looked down at the two beers he
held in one big hand, then up at her. He pasted an exaggerated scowl on his
face. “Cute little dimples?” </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Book Antiqua";">“Adorable. You know what those dimples say
to me?” </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Book Antiqua";">“Don’t call me cute?” </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Book Antiqua";">Quick comeback. She gave him a closer look,
noting the mischief in his green eyes and the power in his body. This man was
smokin’ hot. “They say you’re as pure as a baby lamb, so you’d better hand that
beer this way.” She gave him a cheeky grin. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Book Antiqua";">“Is that right? Well, you’re not the only
one who can interpret body language. You know what your smile says to me?” </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Book Antiqua";">“I’m just dying to know.” </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Book Antiqua";">“It says you prefer drinks with cream.”
Flashing a smile, he brushed a drop of liquid off her upper lip. Her mouth
dropped open in shock at how quickly he’d gotten the best of her. That never
happened. Also, that light touch had done crazy things to her equilibrium. She
had to get it back. <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Flirt, Donna, flirt</i>.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Book Antiqua";">“Maybe I’m flexible and open-minded when it
comes to drinks. And other things.” </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Book Antiqua";">His eyes darkened to a deep emerald. “Me and
my dimples are going to pretend we didn’t hear that. We’re too pure, remember?”
He put one bottle on the table and tilted the other to his mouth, which brought
her attention to his broad chest and powerful shoulders. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Book Antiqua";">She swallowed hard, taking a sip from her
White Russian to hide her strong attraction to him. “I’m trying to remember.
But the rest of you makes it hard. Are you a ballplayer too?” He certainly had
the body for it. Not just because of his muscles, but the confidence with which
he carried himself. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Book Antiqua";">“I am. Mike Solo, catcher.” He extended his
hand, and they shook. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Book Antiqua";">“Donna MacIntyre. Flirt.” </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Book Antiqua";">He laughed at that, his eyes dancing. “You
don’t fool me. There’s a lot more to you than 'flirt.'” </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Book Antiqua";">“How would you know? Something else you read
in my smile?” </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Book Antiqua";">“No. I saw the way you got Caleb and Sadie
to go off together. A real flirt wouldn’t do that. You’d want the star pitcher
of the Catfish all to yourself.” </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Book Antiqua";">She shrugged. “So I’m a good friend. Anyway,
maybe I wanted you instead of him.” </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Book Antiqua";">He cocked his head, considering. “Maybe.
Except you didn’t even notice me at first.” </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Book Antiqua";">“So … you noticed whether or not I noticed
you?” </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Book Antiqua";">“A-ha.” He gestured at her with his beer
bottle. “Very coherent. You’re not nearly as tipsy as you want people to
believe.” </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Book Antiqua";">“<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">That</i>
can be fixed.” Alarmed by his perceptiveness, she drained the rest of her White
Russian. “Ta-da. By the way, I totally noticed you. I just didn’t think you
were interested.” </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Book Antiqua";">Something sparked in those green eyes of
his. “What made you think that?” </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Book Antiqua";">“I don’t know.” She shrugged. “Just
something I picked up on. You’re here with your friends, you’re having fun,
drinking, hanging out, but you’re not looking for anything. You didn’t set off
my play-dar.” </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Book Antiqua";">“Play-dar?” </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Book Antiqua";">“My play-dar helps me spot a player from two
hundred yards.” </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Book Antiqua";">His burst of laughter lit up his face. “You
should patent that. You’d make bank.” </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Book Antiqua";">“I’m right, aren’t I?” She wasn’t sure if
she wanted to be right or wrong. If anyone would tempt her, it would be catcher
Mike Solo. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Book Antiqua";">“As a matter of fact, you are, at least for
now. It’s the baseball season,” he said as if it explained everything. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Book Antiqua";">She shook her head, not understanding. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Book Antiqua";">“I take a Vow of Celibacy at the beginning
of every season. I stick to it until the last out of the last game.” </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Book Antiqua";">“A Vow of Celibacy? You mean, like a monk?” </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Book Antiqua";">“Yep.” He took another swig from his beer. “I
pour all my energy into baseball. No distractions. No drama. It’s great for my
concentration. According to my calculations, it adds an extra fifty points to
my batting average.” </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Book Antiqua";">“Wow.” She eyed him, fascinated. This was
the most intriguing conversation she’d ever had at the Roadhouse. “So you
haven’t had sex since … when, Opening Day?” </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Book Antiqua";">“Spring Training, actually.” </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Book Antiqua";">“So if I invited you back to my place and
told you every naughty thing I’d like you to do to me, you’d say …” </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Book Antiqua";">His eyes darkened and his Adam’s apple moved
up and down the strong column of his throat. “I’d say you’re trying to kill
me.”<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Book Antiqua";">Damn. Now he was even more tempting than he
had been before he’d revealed his Vow. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Book Antiqua";">“You know, as a public service, you should
be less attractive,” she told him. “Get a mullet. Or wear those shiny, baggy
sweats. And a wife-beater. It’s only fair, if you’re going to be off-limits.” </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Book Antiqua";">“Sorry, you lost me at attractive. After
that all I heard was blah-blah-blah.”</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Book Antiqua";">They both burst out laughing. Somehow it
felt as if she’d known him much longer than the approximately ten minutes since
they’d met. “So you’re a hottie who won’t put out, and I’m a flirt who just
wants my friend to have fun. We’re quite a pair, aren’t we?” </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Book Antiqua";">He clicked his beer bottle against her empty
glass. “To us.” </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Book Antiqua";">“To us,” she echoed, then slid off the table
she’d been perched on. He caught her arm to help her, setting every nerve
ending on that side of her body aflame. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Book Antiqua";">He put his hand in the small of her back and
guided her through the crowd toward the bar. Hmm, she wondered, her mind filled
with images of Mike’s laughing green eyes and hard body.</span><span style="font-family: "Book Antiqua"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA; mso-fareast-font-family: "MS 明朝"; mso-fareast-language: EN-US; mso-fareast-theme-font: minor-fareast;"> Just

Have you signed up for my newsletter? If you have (and you read the September issue), you know all about my Favorite Things for Fall Giveaway. If not, here's the scoop. If you join the list, you'll be automatically entered into my Favorite Things for Fall Giveaway -- exclusive for newsletter subscribers. Every month until the end of the year, I'll give away a super-cool prize. Each prize will be something that I personally LOVE and hope you will too. The September prize is a gift set from Suki Tea, a wonderful tea blender based in Belfast, Ireland. One of my favorite readers introduced me to Suki. As a tea aficionado, someone who literally cannot write without a cup of tea on hand, I can vouch for this tea as being among the best I've ever tasted. I'll pick a winner on September 29, and will announce the next prize in the October newsletter. It could be a treat from Alaska or something from Hawaii or beyond. Whatever it is, it will be one of my favorite things ever, I promise you that. <br />
<br />
Is that enough to get you to sign up? I'm also sharing exclusive sneak peeks at CAUGHT BY YOU, the next Love Between the Bases novel due out on December 29. In September's newsletter, I posted half of Chapter 1, and will include the entire first chapter in October's issue.<br />
<br />
What else? How about recipes, book recommendations, and more giveaways? And, of course, snapshots of life in Alaska, Hawaii, or wherever I happen to be. Have I lured you in yet? Here's the link to sign up. :-) I'd love to see you there!<br />

I’m not one of those lucky people who grew up in one place
with familiar faces all around them. If that was your experience, I truly envy
you. My family moved many times, and I continued that pattern as an adult –
with one exception. When my parents were young and nearly penniless, they
joined with two other families to purchase a tiny summer cabin on an island in
Maine. My family still gathers there almost every summer, and that’s how I get
to appreciate what time does to a familiar place.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
When I was little, the entire island had exactly one telephone. It's still
there, right next to the Community Hall, down near the public wharf. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

teenager, I spent hours on that phone with my college boyfriend, fending off
mosquitoes and pesky interlopers who wanted their turn on the phone. These
days, everyone has landlines and cell phones, but some things don’t change. Cell
service comes and goes out there, and communication with the outside world is
still blessedly sketchy. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
When I was little, the woods at the north end of the island
were thick and daunting. The paths were hard to find and if I ever had to walk
through them at night—say, after a cookout on the beach--I would cling to an
adult’s hand the entire time. I will never forget the terror I felt stepping
into the world of those dark, looming evergreens. These days, there’s a sign
post for the path. A sign post!<br />
<br />

And if I need some light, I use the flashlight
app on my iPhone. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
What else? In our little cottage, the only toilet was in the
basement where the slugs and spiders lived. When you had to pee at night, you
had a choice between the dreaded trek downstairs and a chamber pot. Every night
I held a long, agonized internal debate about which was better, or at least
less horrid. We had no shower, so we ran around all day long with ocean salt
drying on our skin. Occasionally my mother would heat water on the stove and
stick us in a washtub. The only means we had of cleaning our clothes involved
an old tin washboard and lots of scrubbing. These days? Over the protests of
the younger generation, the elders put in an actual bathroom with tub, shower,
and laundry. I’ve never seen a single slug in there. Peeing has become a
drama-free experience. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

<div class="MsoNormal">
It’s amazing how things change even in timeless places like
Cliff Island, and how some things don’t. <br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
We have Internet access now. The
island has a Facebook page and a website for renting cottages. Washing machines
are common, but we still hang our clothes out to dry in the sun. The kids of today are
offered organized activities—soccer games and sandcastle contests—while we had
nothing but bikes, swimsuits and lots of free time. But some things never
change. <br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
On a sunny day, if the tide is right, kids still spend all day at “the
cove,” then skip down to the wharf for an ice cream cone. <br />

I wouldn’t trade my tech-challenged, slug-infested memories

hot showers. And those flashlight apps – they’re fantastic. <br />

It starts with a 5:30 AM wakeup call and a drive into town, where a tiny plane will take me to Anchorage. Then there's the flight to Seattle and a red-eye to JFK airport, where at 6 AM the next morning I will suddenly be confronted with the equivalent of Homer's entire population in about three minutes. I'm still a little unclear on the details of how to get from JFK to my cousin's apartment, but I have a good 24 hours to figure it out.<br />
<br />
Anyway, the purpose of this trek is the 2015 RWA National Conference, which is being held at the New York Marriot Marquis in Times Square this year. Do you live in the New York area? If so, I hope you'll come to this amazing event. I'll be signing books at the RWA Literacy Autographing, at which all proceeds promote literacy. It takes place from 5:30-7:30 on Wednesday, July 22. Here are all the details in one handy graphic. The best part? It's completely free and open to the public! And if you come say hi, I'll have a special gift for you.<br />

<br />
Also, if you're attending the conference, I'll be part of Avon Book's open signing on Thursday, July 23, from 9:45 to 11:15 in Westside Rooms 1 and 2. That event is always a blast!<br />

If you've been waiting for the perfect chance to give ALL OF ME a try, this could be it! The ebook price wasn't supposed to be lowered yet, but for a VERY limited time, it is. It's only $2.99 on Kindle, Nook, Kobo and iBooks. Fun, sexy summer reading for an awesome price ... but not for long. Happy reading! </div>

<span style="font-family: Times; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Helvetica; mso-bidi-font-style: italic;">Playing
for the Kilby Catfish is hotshot pitcher Caleb Hart’s last chance to salvage
his career after a major league meltdown. But the day of his opener with the
minor league team, Caleb strikes out with the gorgeous woman who is delivering
a petition to run the unruly Catfish out of town. Now to stay in the lineup,
Caleb will need to score big with the feisty brunette he can’t keep out of his
thoughts.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Times; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Helvetica; mso-bidi-font-style: italic;">After
the nasty lies Sadie Merritt’s rich ex-boyfriend spread about her all over
town, she’s lucky to have a job at all. She can’t afford to screw it up by
falling for the player who is supposed to be helping her change the image of
the fun-loving Catfish. But that’s easier said than done when Caleb’s voice
alone is enough to make her pulse race. And when he surprises her with a
mind-blowing kiss, she knows there’s no turning back.</span><span style="font-family: Times; font-size: 10.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Helvetica; mso-bidi-font-style: italic;"></span></div>

With a book birthday (May 26) and a real birthday (May 27) within two days of each other ... how could I not throw a party? While I wish I could invite everyone up to our place in Alaska (there's plenty of space, if you count the wilderness), it's a lot easier to do it on Facebook. So .... you're invited to my ALL OF ME Birthday Bash on Wednesday, May 27th!<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://www.facebook.com/events/803556226396737/"><img alt="https://www.facebook.com/events/803556226396737/" border="0" height="150" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjALmpzxT0zopDGohQppO1AgGGximJG4oqYEz7oiIhHqrMYJOHlGDbBy2j9CNJqhMKAP_pD7kGYcuHIGukXTPNRljV0cU2YyKqVXyQ1kXnLP_3431lQ1_LTqVGo7tCtZYK-ohJO2j49fS4/s400/Birthday+Bash+3.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<br />
The party will run for seven hours (from 3pm to 10pm EDT) to accommodate as many time zones as I can. The list of guest authors includes:<br />
<br />
Lori Wilde<br />
Julie Brannagh<br />
Erin Nicholas<br />
Candis Terry<br />
Sierra Dean<br />
Kelly Jamieson<br />
Sierra Dean<br />
LizBeth Selvig<br />
Cara Connelly<br />
Meg Benjamin<br />
PG Forte<br />
<br />
With special appearances by Eloisa James, Lorraine Heath, Darynda Jones and Regina Kyle. We'll be giving away prizes galore and have a few fun games planned for you! So I hope you'll join us. Click <a href="https://www.facebook.com/events/803556226396737/">here</a> or on the banner to find the party page. Feel free to invite your friends as well! <br />
<br />
Hugs!<br />

With release day RIGHT around the corner (six days, OMG!) the big blog tour is underway! It's extensive and includes reviews, a few interviews and guest posts, and a tour-wide giveaway courtesy of Avon Books. <br />
<br />
I'm posting this not only so you can stop in and take part, but so I can remember where I'm supposed to be! If you have any questions or comments along the way, please post them. If you just want to say "hi," please do so! I would love that. I hope to see you somewhere along the road to release day ... and beyond! <br />

I'm convinced I don't have enough outfits for five days, and that I will either run out of promo items or no one will want my silly "All of Me" Cracker Jacks. In other words, the usual pre-journey jitters. <br />
<br />
If you're in Dallas and would like to say "hey," here's a handy guide for where to find me. I plan to use it myself. So ...<br />
<br />
Tuesday May 12 - I mentioned the Cracker Jacks, right? Tuesday evening will find me and some helpful lovely people attaching excerpt booklets to these babies. If you have a driving need to put promo swag together, let me know. I can totally hook you up. You will find this swag in Promo Alley unless it runs out, or no one wants it and I make a big bonfire and call the fire department. <br />
<br />
Wednesday May 13 - The First Party. It's very important to set the tone for the entire conference with a few drinks right off the bat. (You didn't hear me say that.) I'll be rocking some cowboy-ish boots at the Taste of Texas Romance Rodeo in the Landmark Ballroom. Yee-haw! (I promise not to say that anymore for the rest of this blog post.)<br />
<br />
Thursday May 14 - 11:15 Avon Presents: A Texas Homecoming Craft-Along. I'm a consultant for a table of crafty people making ... sashes? Corsages? I'm really not sure, but I think it will be a blast. Are you crafty? Please come help! Because I'm not. At all. I can bribe you with ... hmm ... Cracker Jacks?<br />
<br />
Thursday May 14 - 7 pm - Avon Books Margarita Mayhem. If you're an Avon Addict or a blogger or anyone who has received an invitation to this cocktail party, I hope to see you there. Avon parties are always fun, and margaritas are fun, as is mayhem. This one can't miss. <br />
<br />
Thursday May 14 - 9pm - The Wild West Steampunk Party - Thanks to my friend Boone Brux, I have a costume, so I'm going! Yeehaw! (Oops, sorry.)<br />
<br />
Friday May 15 - 4pm Avon's Paris in Texas Cocktail Party - I'll be signing books and sipping wine, which is a dangerous combination that I'm amazed hasn't resulted in disaster before now. <br />
<br />
Friday May 15 - 10pm Pitch Perfect 2 Party!! This is a sold-out excursion, so if you signed up on time, I'll see you on the bus! (There's a certain exclamation I could use here, but didn't. You're welcome.) <br />
<br />
Saturday May 16 - 10am - 2pm The Giant Book Fair. Signing books, most likely regretting the wine and late night Pitch Perfect screeching from Friday. Please, please come by and revive me.<br />
<br />
Saturday May 16 - 8:30 LizBeth Selvig and I are hosting a private get-together. If you are interested in joining us, let me know and I will send you an invitation. <br />
<br />
Sunday May 17 - Zero Dark Ass-Crack of Dawn -Shuttle, airport, back to reality. <br />
<br />
Of course I will also be attending workshops, roaming the bar, looking for trouble wearing a cowboy hat, and who knows what else. And I'll try to keep on top of Instagram and Twitter and Facebook and all that. (Click the icons to follow.)<br />

Every once in a while I get an email from my editor asking if I'm okay with putting one of my books on sale. I always say, "Hell yes!" -- except in appropriate editor language, so more like, "What an excellent idea! I consent." So for the next couple of weeks, THE NIGHT BELONGS TO FIREMAN is priced at only $1.99 at all e-tailers.<br />
<br />
If you've haven't read it yet, this is the perfect opportunity. If you have read it -- I hope you liked it! -- and maybe you'll consider purchasing it for a friend. Know someone who loves romance or firemen or true love? I think they'd enjoy this book. <br />
<br />
For your convenience, here are the buy links from the biggest sites. <br />

Easy-peasy, right? This giveaway is taking place mostly over on my <a href="http://facebook.com/JenniferBernardBooks">Facebook page</a>, but you can enter here too. Just pick your favorite Bachelor Fireman and decide what your dream date with him would be! For instance ... horseback riding with Psycho. A bottle of wine with Brody. Dancing with Vader. Let your imagination run wild!<br />
<br />
The prize pack will include some delicious Hawaiian chocolates, a signed Bachelor Firemen paperback, an All of Me mug, and some surprise goodies. Leave your comment either here or on my Facebook page sometime before 9PM EST on Monday, February 16.<br />
<br />
And if you need a little help choosing your fave fireman, here's a fun little quiz I concocted. Which Bachelor Fireman is Your Perfect Match? Inquiring minds want to know! <br />
<br />

You're looking at the page proofs for ALL OF ME, due in a week. Whenever I get page proofs, I make a trip to the drug store and pick up some kids' colored pencils. I wear one to a stub making corrections, then I always manage to lose the box before the next page proofs arrive. Anyway, I have my red pencil and I'm ready to rock. As soon as I meet my other deadline, which happens to be one day earlier.<br />

That, my friends, is the first draft of book 2 in the Love Between the Bases series, CAUGHT BY YOU. Due this Monday. Not that I'm panicking or anything. You know what, though? I enjoy a good challenge. I can do this thing. But if you do feel inspired to send chocolate, hunky massage therapists, or other assistance, I wouldn't say no.

<br />
*We live in Lava Zone 1.*<br />
<br />
*There's a chance we're completely out of our minds. But it's really, really pretty here.* <br />
<br />
Since June 27th, lava has been oozing in molten swaths down the slopes of Kilauea volcano toward the little town of Pahoa. Despite the constant, unnerving threat of destruction, so far only one home has been lost, a few businesses closed, and two people arrested for sticking golf clubs in the lava. Lately I've been wondering if Pele, the Hawaiian goddess of the volcano, has a wicked sense of humor. <br />
<br />
Who else could get throngs of tourists to come to a tropical paradise and visit ... a dump?<br />

The Pahoa "Transfer Station" -- aka "the dump" -- came within one drainage ditch of being buried under lava. It was shut down and evacuated, and the whole town mourned the loss of our brand-new, $5 million eco-friendly waste facility. Then, in October, the lava just ... stopped. Right at the edge of the dump. We held our breath for about a week, until a new lobe of lava took off, heading for a different part of town.<br />
<br />
The dump survived, but County officials jumped at the opportunity to offer visitors a way to view the lava flow. Here are a few pictures from Pahoa's newest tourist attraction. It's well worth a visit to see how breathtakingly close the lava came, to admire its elegant, primal swirls, and see the steam still leaking from the newest rock on earth.<br />

Locals have left tributes to Pele, which is understandable since we're really happy to still have our dump. But tributes would be left no matter what; to live in Hawaii's Lava Zone 1 is to know that things could change at any moment. It's best to honor the mighty forces at work here. <br />
<br />

In fact, another change is coming March 1. The dump will be reopened for business. We'll still get to view Pele's handiwork as we drop off our recycling. :-)<br />
<br />
Have you ever seen the lava flowing here in Hawaii? Do you think we're nuts to live here (only part-time, but still?) <br />

<br />
Hey, I have a new look for the New Year! Or at least my website and blog do. (Me -- I'm pretty much the same.)<br />
<br />
The big changes are the inclusion of baseball in the design, some brighter colors, and more sexiness, all in anticipation of the new series. Love Between the Bases will start hitting shelves on May 26, with the first book, ALL OF ME. I love the new design, and I hope you do too.<br />
<br />
Another change is this blog. I debated changing the name to Jen's Un-Blog because I have a mental block about blogging. I want something more free-form, more relaxed, more spontaneous than a "blog." I'd like to be able to chat with people here, hang out, connect more. Jen's Space fits that concept better, so I'm trying that name out, see how it fits. I'll be visiting this space often -- at least a couple times a week -- and I hope you do too!<br />
<br />
So here's to new beginnings, new looks, and new books. Are you making any big changes this year?<br />
<br />
