Small world
July 19, 2006
The annoying Small World song of Disneyland fame keeps running through my head as I bounced through blogs in my early morning semi-conscious state – catching up with the news and weather before beginning the day. Over at http://www.smartbitchestrashybooks.com/ the Highland Fling controversy continues.The link provided for those who feel the urge to weigh in on one side or the other. The sides are harsh reviewer versus bashed author.
In my spare time I plan to return and study their book reviews. There’s an art to trashing a book in an acceptable and inoffensive – other than to the author – manner. Since it’s not part of my current skill set I’m sticking with reading reports on books I think merit time and space.
Scrolling down to the previous post I found a discussion of rejection letters. Tales of rejection, like stories of childbirth, are a perennial favorite subject among romance writers. One of the commentors was Nora Roberts, who added her own rejection story. Seeing her post restarted the annoying It’s A Small World Afterall lyrics playing in my head.
Back to polishing up still itchy-scratchy manuscript.
A lonely woman finds passion with a dominant much younger lover, forcing a choice between love and loyalty 
The Enyo Chronicles includes both Dalia's Choice and Joon's Tempation. 
Three different stories, three dangerous men, and three women who deserve them 
One dangerous warrior woman plus two rogue demon males equals a love to threaten an empire. 
Getting paid to watch Eduardo is Desiree’s dream assignment, but when he reaches out to her, crossing the line, everything changes.
Deep in her secret heart, she lusts for a sexy pirate who’d be her master and commander in the bedroom. But, this man may be too dangerous
One woman, two men, three wounded hearts--though already mated their love is still forbidden.
A reluctant reporter and a lone wolf undercover cop work to catch an extortionist, finding love requires the most dangerous risk of all. 
Street-smart cop plays princess to catch deadly terrorists. Now,the only man she trusts is the one she can't resist.
Along with the arrival of Sam’s nemesis comes Karina, the one woman who can heal his wounded soul. What he doesn’t know may kill him. Because, the love of his life is his worst nightmare--his enemy’s daughter.

It’s simple to oust an annoying tune by replacing it with another too memorable song. Your choice . . .
