First, contrats to Julie as the randomly selected comment about HOT days! Email me your snail mail addy (emma AT emmasinclair DOT com) and I’ll have some summer goodies coming your way soon.

Second, am I the only one totally obsessed with the Tour de France? I’ve been watching it for years, and without Lance, there was always the “what the heck is going to happen now” question hanging over the tour. Well, with the rest of the top contenders out in controversy the day before it started, it’s a completely wide open bike race!

Anyway, they’re in the Alps for the next two days, by far the best part of the race. I mean, I think they should just take out the flat stages all together and have to race up hill the whole time, but I don’t think anyone else is going to go for that.

Seriously, if you don’t watch the tour, but are thinking of getting into it, watch today and tomorrow in the Alps. I think there’s 5 major climbs on todays stage.

Here in the states OLN has prime time coverage (not live) starting at 8 EST (9 PST). You should watch.

And lastly, it’s release day!!!

Secret Agent Man is out today from Venus Press (Note: If I remember correctly links go live at about noonish so I’ll be back later to post a direct link. In the meantime, click here to read an excerpt. Warning: It be extra spicy.)

I’m so happy that Sam and Cat are finally going to be available to the world!

Catherine “Cat” Mason has always thought that all of her problems would be solved if she could just find the father she’s never known. Sam O’Neill’s job has one rule - no complications. Unfortunately Cat has “complication” written all over her.

Now, the two of them are on a mission to not only save Cat’s father’s life, but also their own. And then there’s that pesky little lust thing that keeps getting in the way…

Edited to add: It’s out! It’s out!! You can click on the picture above to purchase. You know, if you want to.
