Golden Hearts and Vortex Winners

My novel Until Midnight has just been nominated for Romance Writers of America's 2009 Golden Heart Award! Could have been the "Waiting-For-The-Call" t-shirt I'm wearing today. Good mojo there.

Here's the blurb:

Ryan Beck is an agent assassin for The Assembly, a rogue government organization he's grown to despise. His allegiance to their top-secret agenda marked his descent from patriot to criminal and cost him his wife and his honor. He wants out, but must complete one last misison to stay alive: obtain a serum from a ruthless scientist and use it as a bargaining chip for freedom.

Medical researcher Emma Parrish believes the time serum her brilliant but misunderstood father never completed is the holy grail of medicine. The same men who hunted her father want the formula, along with an unforgettable stranger who seems to know the future as completely as the part of herself she shields from the world.

A sniper's bullet reaches Beck's target first and shatters his mission into a reverse maze of deceit and time-altering events. His only chance for escape is to find the moment the deadly chain of events began, somewhere at the cross hairs of loyalty and desire.

And on the Vortex Scavenger Hunt, we have a winner! Whoot for Todd and for his love of a frozen Ted Williams. Be sure to pop back here and let us know what you get with your Amazon spending spree.

That's all for now. A happy hump day, indeed.

Vortex Scavenger Hunt Extended

While I work on a Vortex 10 for tomorrow that captures the essence of my vacation and tackle laundry piled as high as the Rockies, I'm extending the scavenger hunt's deadline through Friday, March 27. If no one correctly solves the hunt, I'll work a little time travel of my own and delete the posts as if they never happened. Remember, the search box at the top left corner of the blog is your friend. Type in each day's clue and you'll almost always have your answer. Have fun and good luck!

Vortex Scavenger Hunt : Day One

Since I'll be watching out for Texas county-mounties, shooshing down the Colorado slopes and carting a Mount Vesuvius to-be-read pile for the next two weeks, I didn't want to leave the natives restless. Thus, the first ever Vortex Scavenger Hunt.

Each weekday for the next two weeks, I'll post a word clue. Find the archived post that contains the clue and mark down that post's original date. The first person to email me (la-mitchell@la-mitchell.com) on Friday, March 20 with the correct post dates for all the clues wins a $20 Amazon gift certificate. Easy, eh? Get out that Post-It note and keep it beside your monitor. Free books, people! Doesn't get any better than that.

Have fun! (and pssst!..Don't forget the blog search box at the top left corner)

Today's clue:

A salt-of-the-earth hero named Clay
