Okay, I've wasted about 40 minutes trying to figure out how to fill out the giveaway form here on Goodreads. I'm not too computer savvy after all! UGH! It says it's not in paperback format...but it IS. UGH. I surrender for now. I wanted to upload an excerpt from my work in progress, Dancing Barefoot, but I think I'm going to save it for another day. My tech skills are failing me today.

Sizzling Summer Blog Hop begins July 4! Stay tuned for sexy excerpts (author's choice) and giveaways galore. Check out my blog to see a preview of all the prizes up for grabs. It's going to be fun!

I'm currently in the middle of a virtual book tour. I'm noticing a lot of new fans and a significant increase in ratings/reviews. I want to take a moment to thank all of you readers who are taking the time to rate/review. It means a lot. Happy reading and WELCOME!

I have the cover to Riptide and couldn't be happier. We're only 2 weeks away from release day. Yay! Exciting times ahead.

Thanks to everyone who's taken the time to read and write a review of Kiss Me Slowly. I appreciate the feedback and the support! I have a new novel, Riptide, about to be released in a few weeks. I love the characters in Riptide--they made me cry when writing it and put me through the ringer a bit, but they imprinted themselves on my heart. I hope you all will feel the same! (Crossing my fingers--I know all of you on Goodreads are a hard group to please! Ha) Here's a sneak peek: http://amberleaeaston.blogspot.com/20...

Trying to put the Goodreads FB app on my FB author page--is it just me or is it impossible? LOL I'm waving the white flag for now.

Fixed the mirrored account dilemma--still think that's weird, though. There were also some tweaks made to this account (Lea was suddenly missing from my name). Guess I'll be changing passwords! UGH.

Tried to log in via Twitter and discovered a mirrored account--only says Amber Lea, no pic or info--and has 147 friends, some of whom I know. Hmm...I wonder how that happened. More importantly, I wonder how I can delete it! I have too much to keep track of as it is, don't need multiple goodreads accounts. Ugh.

Is it my alter ego writing those love scenes? No, it's really me. Chatting away again on my virtual book tour--this whirlwind adventure is finally winding down, but it's been great. I'm over at Storm Goddess Book Reviews today: http://stormgoddessbookreviews.blogsp...

Breaking news! Brand new 5* review from Jersey Girl Book Reviews. Woot! I'm overcome with gratitude and joy.

Breaking news: Brand new 5* review for KISS ME SLOWLY from Jersey Girl Book Reviews. I'm overwhelmed with gratitude and joy.

"If you thought you were being set up for embezzlement and diamond smuggling, and you didn't trust anyone in your circle, who would you turn to for help in proving your innocence? Would you be willing to trust the one person who you hurt years ago, knowing that they might refuse? What if all these years you never were able to forget that person, and the passion still burns bright ... can there still be a glimmer of hope left? These are the questions that Jonathan Alexander faced when being accused of embezzling from his family's company and engaging in diamond smuggling activity. He knew he could only turn to one person, Grace Dupont, the best forensic accountant in Miami, and the woman whose heart he broke thirteen years ago. If you are Grace Dupont, and you have your own secrets that you're hiding, would you be willing to trust the one person who you gave your heart to so long ago, the one who made you not trust another man since then? This is the dilemma that Grace faced when Jonathan desperately asked her to help him prove his innocence, but is he really innocent, or is it a trap being laid for her? Where will their journey take them in Kiss Me Slowly?

Kiss Me Slowly is an action packed romance suspense thriller that will have you sitting on the edge of your seat with every chilling twist and turn. The storyline is well written and full of intrigue that pulls the reader into the action that follows Jon and Grace. The interweaving plot of embezzlement, diamond smuggling, betrayal, murder, mayhem, and sizzling romantic chemistry keeps the reader guessing what will happen next as Jon and Grace race against the clock to prove his innocence while encountering unknown dangers that wait around every corner. The characters are realistic, their complex lives and engaging interactions with each other give the story more depth and make it that much more powerful and compelling. I absolutely loved the sizzling chemistry between Jon and Grace, even though they tried to deny it, their passion for each other still simmered below the surface. The description of the setting in the story is fabulous, who wouldn't love to visit the beautiful South Beach area of Miami, the Florida Keys or floating on the ocean in a beautiful yacht? This story has so much suspense and action going on that I couldn't help but hold my breath with anticipation as I turned the pages.

Kiss Me Slowly is a riveting, slow burning, sizzling romantic suspense thriller that will captivate you from beginning to end. This is one story that romance suspense thriller fans should put on their reading list, you won't be disappointed!

RATING: 5 STARS *****"
