Holding On (Colorado High Country #6) —
The Colorado High Country series returns with Conrad and Kenzie's story.

A hero barely holding on…

Harrison Conrad returned to Scarlet Springs from Nepal, the sole survivor of a freak accident on Mt. Everest. Shattered and grieving for his friends, he vows never to climb again and retreats into a bottle of whiskey—until Kenzie Morgan shows up at his door with a tiny puppy asking for his help. He’s the last person in the world she should ask to foster this little furball. He’s barely capable of managing his own life right now, let alone caring for a helpless, adorable, fluffy puppy. But Conrad has always had a thing for Kenzie with her bright smile and sweet curves. One look into her pleading blue eyes, and he can’t say no.

The woman who won’t let him fall…

Kenzie Morgan’s life went to the dogs years ago. A successful search dog trainer and kennel owner, she gets her fill of adventure volunteering for the Rocky Mountain Search & Rescue Team. The only thing missing from her busy life is love. It’s not easy finding Mr. Right in a small mountain town, especially when she’s unwilling to date climbers. She long ago swore never again to fall for a guy who might one day leave her for a rock. When Conrad returns from a climbing trip haunted by the catastrophe that killed his best friend, Kenzie can see he’s hurting and wants to help. She just might have the perfect way to bring him back to the world of the living. But friendship quickly turns into something more—and now she’s risking her heart to heal his.

In ebook and soon in print!

Unlawful Contact is out!



It took a year to write, then there were months of typesetting, copy editing and proofing. Then it hit the printing press. And now a long last Unlawful Contact is out!

Yes, Libby’s widget has done its job and counted out the moments, and somehow it’s April 1!

I’m so excited to finally see Marc and Sophie’s story on the shelves and to be able to share it and discuss it with all of you.

Lots is going on today in honor of the big day.

The Good, the Bad and the Unread has an interview with me posted on their site, together with the interview of Pamela Clifton that already ran here. You can read it at goodbadandunread.com. Sybil and Gwen have been running the Goldilocks blogs in tandem with my blog and have been awesome about getting them out there.

Kristie J also has an interview on her blog. Today is Part II. Go to kristiej.blogspot.com and say hello.

And at long last, I have a new Web site. It’s got much of the content it had before, but lots more, as well, including a page of Fun Stuff, a photo gallery at the bottom of my bio page, author’s notes on all my books and little tidbits and extras. It went live at 12:40 a.m. Mountain Time. And it will continue to grow, as I post more deleted scenes and fan art and fan fic and whatever comes my way.

Also, I now have a Yahoo group, and we've been having a great time discussing romance and hero sandwiches and Marc and Julian. Go to http://groups.yahoo.com/group/PamelaClare/ to sign up and join in the chat.

Last but not least I’m having a contest. So in honor of the big release day — that’s TODAY! — I’m giving away a signed copy of the book together with samples of “Marc” and “Sophie” perfumes from Dawn Spencer Hurwitz!



To enter, go check out my new website (you can click on the link at the right) and send me a message using my new Guestbook by next Monday — that’s one week from yesterday. I’ll draw a name Monday night and post the winner here. Be sure to write “Blog contest” in the comments section.

Thanks to all of you who’ve done so much to help me get to this day! Your support means more to me than you could ever know. And to my Gangsta Bitches for those early A.M. text messages and emails — I love you!

I'll be heading out tonight to sign books in my local bookstores and to make sure they have it on the shelves.

I can't wait to hear what you all think of Marc. Speaking of hero sandwiches, who wants to be the creamy filling between Marc and Julian?

I've been anxiously waiting for Marc... Starting the book tonight (had to finish another i was reading).
I want to be the filling!!!!

L said...

Yippee! I can't wait to read this in book form, especially knowing my hands will be touching the hottie-bo-bottie version of Hunt on the cover ;)

For some reason, I can't get into your site right now, but I bet it's just overloaded right now. I shall try back again latah!

If I can take a moment...I got to smell the perfumes Pamela's giving away myself, and they are just fabulous! They are not your run of the mill scents by any means, and definitely some of the highest quality stuff I've ever used (and you're hearing from a former designer perfume junkie).

Anyway. Best wishes today, PC! XOXOXO

Debbie H said...

Congrats, PC! I finally get to discuss it with others. I have been re-reading it and enjoying each read. I went to the bookstore today to get my copy in paperback. LOL

Cheryle said...

Hi there! I had to stop by your website today and discovered your blog. How did I find you? Through my buddy Bonnie Vanak. I'm always in the mood for an excellent romantic suspense. When I read the excerpts on your website, I knew I had to pick up you I-Team series. Looking forward to reading them. May you have many, many sales!
All the best,
Denise A. Agnew

Hi, Debbie D — So what you're saying is that you're going to spend the night with Marc? I hope you enjoy him! ;-)

LibBAY, my sista! Don't know what's up with the site. Hopefully you've gotten in by now. Thanks for the good wishes. I'll have to see about getting some "Marc" and "Sophie" to you. :-)

Hi, Debbie! Yes, finally, you can talk about it with people. There's going to be a discussion on my Yahoo group. I can't remember the URL to save my life, but it shouldn't be hard to find. There's lots of Marc lovers there, so come by and play! It would be awesome to have you there.

Oh, Cheryle, I feel your pain! I hope Amazon sends your copy soon. What a bummer to have to wait when it's out. ARGH!

Yay, Christi! I can't wait to hear what you think about Marc and Sophie. Pop by the Yahoo group if you can.

Hi, Sin! I know you won't see this response because you're hiding with dust bunnies beneath your desk right now. LOL! I hope you're enjoying the story!

Hi, Denise, and welcome! A friend of Bonnie's is a friend of mine. So good to hear from you! Thanks for the good wishes. I hope you enjoy the stories! Come back again!
