Sydney Croft's newest!
It’s here – The Mammoth Book of Special Ops Romance has arrived!  It includes Sydney Croft’s (aka Steph and Larissa Ione) short story, Code Word: Storm, which features Creed and Annika from the ACRO series.  The story is set sometime between Riding the Storm and Unleashing the Storm, when their relationship is still early and full of uncertainty. Now they need to work together to battle a spirit and save themselves – and possibly their relationship – in the process.

More from Sydney Croft
Sydney’s site (www.sydneycroft.com) has been updated to include an excerpt from both Code Word: Storm and an excerpt from the newest ACRO book, Tempting the Fire, which releases July 26, 2010. Tempting the Fire introduces Logan and Sela, and also tells Marlena’s story, which many readers have been looking forward to.

News from Stephanie Tyler
There’s a new sneak peek up for Lie With Me – an October 26, 2010 release! Also, if you haven’t seen the newest covers for both Lie With Me and Promises in the Dark (a November 23, 2010 release), you’re missing out – they’re gorgeous! Bantam Dell’s art department has outdone themselves again for the start of the new Shadow Force series.

I’m still so completely thrilled and grateful at how well the Hard to Hold trilogy has been received by readers – it’s because of you that Hold on Tight made the New York Times extended list at #22 back in February! Now I’m hard at work on the next book in my Shadow Force series. Please check for new details on upcoming books and more on my blog.
