Here's my first book review! I got a little nauseas but I got through it. Not bad at all.

Bad Bad Blogger With New Goals!
Hey Gang,
It's been so long since I've blogged. Nothing's been going on with me but it's definitely time to liven up the joint.
Here's what's on the horizon:
1.I have three stories in progress that I want to finish before hell freezes over.
2.I'll be blogging on TRS this month and next month. I'll post dates later.
3. Some TRS interviews later in the year.
4. Gearing up to attend The Romantic Times Convention for the first time!
Now on to goals for the year:
1. I want to get into the habit of blogging every day.
2. I want to finish all three WIPs.
3. Get up to writing 5000 words a day by the end of the yr.
4. Write everyday period.
5. Rejoin RWA
6. Secure an agent.
These are pretty lofty goals but I need a swift kick in the ass!
IMPORTANT: Here's how you can help with one of my goals. I need topics to blog about everyday, so I want my readers who can give me good topics to send them to my email at Diamondtaylor0@gmail.com. The person who comes up with the best topic for the week will get a prize. I'll do drawings on Fridays.
Tomorrow I'll be blogging so stay tuned!

Come chat w/Diamond Taylor and Angeleque Ford Dec 4th
Ten Great Things about December 4th….
1. I’ll be chatting with Angeleque Ford in the Cobblestone Press Chatroom
2. There will be giveaways.
3. We’ll be discussing books, writing and our upcoming/future projects.
4. Want to know more about Second Chances? This is the perfect time to ask the questions you want answers too.
5. Want to know more about Total Package by Diamond Taylor? Stop by for an excerpt and to ask questions.
6. Find out what’s next for the Ramos Brothers’. (Bonus – Second Chances Book Trailer)
7. Find out what Sebastian and Elaina have been up to and what’s coming next for them.
8. Find out what Diamond is working on now? And will Charles get a story?
9. Sneak Peak Excerpt – Total Package -
Could the afternoon get any more frustrating?
James Carrington threw back the last of his beer in one quick swallow, grateful the work day had ended. One of his top clients had threatened to take her business elsewhere because he had advised her against changing her stock options yet again. Never mind it was the third time she had changed them this month. And if that didn’t beat all, he’d had a flat tire and had to catch a cab.
“Ready for another?”
James looked up from his empty beer and nodded at the bartender. She handed him another brew and smiled, but with his mind preoccupied he didn’t return the friendly gesture. Despite her beauty, his thoughts stayed on Rachael.
“You waiting on someone?” she asked.
“Yeah.” Waiting on Charles’ late ass. Again. Would that brother ever show up on time? “Thanks.”
James sucked down a third of the new draft, wishing it was Rachael’s pussy he sucked on instead.
10. Sneak Peak Excerpt – Second Chances by Angeleque Ford -
Run.
Turn around, get in your car and go before anyone sees you.
Those were the first thoughts in Elaina Matthews’ mind as she approached the back gate.
She didn’t want to intrude, and knowing her presence may cause conflict, Elaina opted to follow her instincts and leave. She was heading back towards her car when she felt a hand on her arm, stopping her mid-stride.
“Running away?” the deep, molasses-thick voice inquired.
Elaina took a step back instinctively and whirled around. Her smile was immediate as she met the dark chocolate orbs of Sebastian Ramos as he stared back at her.
“No, avoiding a bad situation.” She hugged her friend, wanting to stay wrapped in his warm embrace, but given the situation and history, it would be considered inappropriate.
He frowned. “What’s wrong? I’m sure no one blames you for Nick’s death.”
Elaina couldn’t stop the harsh laugh that escaped. “It depends on who you ask.”

Come Chat with Dec 4th!
On Dec 4th, I will be chatting with my friend and writing buddy Angeleque Ford.
We’ll be chatting about books, writing and there may even be a sneak peak at upcoming projects.
Angeleque’s story Second Chances was released by Cobblestone Press. It shares a similar theme to Total Package because it deals with friends becoming lovers.
When Elaina Matthews ran into Sebastian Ramos at his grandmother’s house, she never expected it would lead to another night of wild sex. Or to a relationship.
Sebastian knows what he wants and that’s Elaina in his life and in his bed, forever. He moves full-steam ahead in getting her to agree to a relationship. But will his desire for Elaina overwhelm her and end their relationship before it really starts. And there is another problem on the horizon for the new couple – what will his family say when they discover he’s dating his brother’s ex?
The chat is scheduled for December 4th at 7pm CST/8pm EST www.cobblestone-press.com.
So if you’ve wanted to know anything about our latest releases, our writing habits or what we’re working on now, this is the perfect chance to ask.
P.S. And there will be giveaways.

Interview with Mace Walker, FBI Agent
1. Mace, what made you want to become an FBI agent?
I know this may sound corny, but I really wanted to fight crime. I considered becoming a police officer but love challenges and I knew it was a challenge to get into the FBI. I can't resist a challenge whether it has to do with my job… or getting the attention of an attractive female.
2. How long have you done it? Is it in your genes?
Right out of college. I obtained my B.S. in Criminal Justice with a minor in Spanish.
Since I speak Spanish it didn’t take much to learn Italian. I sort of look Italian so the agency thought I’d fit right in with the Mafia. Manni Spinozi is one of the worst mob bosses out there. After three years of being a junior agent, I went undercover to infiltrate the Spinozi family.
No, it’s not in my genes. My father was a college professor. No one that I know of in my family was in law enforcement.
3. Have you ever shot anyone?
Yes. I’ve shot several subjects. I’ve killed one out of self-defense. He was actually Spinozi’s brother. He shot me first when I was “made” by the family. Half of my thigh is gone. It’s an ugly injury and put me out of commission.
4. So you are out on disability right now? How do you like that forced vacation?
Yes. I am doing physical therapy, trying to redevelop the remaining muscle in my thigh. I walk with a slight limp when it is bothering me. I want to work my way back to full strength so I can get back to work.
I needed a break, so I’m not complaining too much. But I wish it was just a vacation and not a “recovery.” I was getting pretty worn out physically and mentally playing the role of a mob thug 24/7.
5. Are you glad to be home?
Yes, I was gone – deep undercover – for two years. So it’s nice to be back home, being myself and not having to act a part.
Though I came home to find a stranger in my house.
6. A stranger? Who was it?
Yes, I had no idea someone was living in my house besides my sister. It has made being home a little more interesting. And that’s putting it mildly.
You’ll have to read Banged Up, which is my story, to find out who she is.
7. Do you have any siblings?
Yes, one sister, Maxi. She was living in my house while I was away undercover. But I came home to find out she had married and went on an extended European honeymoon. Apparently, she let this stranger live in my house while she is gone.
8. How about love interests?
A man doesn’t kiss and tell. But if you really want to know, again, you’ll have to read Banged Up which is coming out in ebook on September 21st at Liquid Silver Books.
9. What do you think about a story that was written about you?
I found it interesting… I can’t complain about the steamy scenes and I really liked the ending.
Read more about Mace Walker in Banged Up by Jeanne St. James – available NOW at Liquid Silver Books (www.tinyurl.com/bangedup). You can read more about Banged Up, including an excerpt, at her website at www.jeannestjames.com.

BLURB FOR BANGED UP, now available at Liquid Silver Books at http://www.tinyurl.com/bangedup:
Two scarred souls: one physically, one mentally. Both on the mend, hiding from their pasts…
Mace Walker can’t wait to get home.
Being buried deep undercover for the past two years, on the most complex case of his career, has torn him down physically and mentally. Now the FBI agent has come home to recover after having his leg badly injured from a gunshot wound. Arriving home late one night, his relief is short-lived as he’s faced with a stranger pointing a gun to his head, acting like he is the one who doesn’t belong there!
Colby Parks, a biochemist at the local university, had come to town a year earlier to escape an abusive relationship. She vows never to put herself in that situation again.
Then the perfect opportunity comes along: house-sitting for Mace’s sister while making the house she purchased habitable. But she couldn’t anticipate this big snag: the one wearing the tight Levi’s and worn leather jacket, looking like he had just escaped prison.
Being forced to share a house creates sparks between them in more ways than one. However, things take a turn when their pasts catch up to them, threatening to pull them apart forever.
