I’d just like to wish all my friends and lovely readers a very happy new year. Hope that 2012 will be a great year for everyone. Here at Matthews’ Towers it’s already shaping up to be a really busy one!
2011 has been a good year and it’s been great having a new book out with a new publisher, Little, Brown. And what accolades WRAPPED UP IN YOU has received! Hurrah. Many of you have said that you think it’s my best book so far and have completely fallen in love with the hero, Dominic. It hit the bestseller list amid very stiff competition – so thank you for choosing my book above others. I’ve also had fantastic support from all the book bloggers and book review sites for which I’m really grateful. I was thrilled to learn that it was voted Book of the Year by readers on super-smashing website Trashionista. The cover was chosen as cover of the year by Bookreviewsbyrea. It was short-listed for Best Romantic Novel by The Festival of Romance. I was also very kindly given a lovely award for Outstanding Contribution to Romantic Fiction by The Fesitval of Romance. Thank you so much! And, last but not least, The Chocolate Lovers’ Club was chosen as Outstanding Romance Novel of the Year by Forward National Literature in the USA. Not a bad way to end 2011!
Thanks to everyone who took the time to read the book and vote for WRAPPED UP IN YOU. Couldn’t do it without you! Little, Brown have great plans for my next book – SUMMER DAYDREAMS – which is out in February in hardback, followed by the paperback in May 2012 and I know that you’ll support me with that book too. My readers are the best!
Every good wish for a happy and successful 2012. Love C : ) xx
