nice review

My next book release WANTED: OUTBACK WIFE has just been given a four star review by Romantic Times!


Desperate to remain in Australia and avoid the family drama awaiting her in England, jewelry maker Jodie Simpson is willing to do anything. Finding an Aussie husband for the period necessary to obtain citizenship seems a little extreme -- but with no other options in sight, Jodie ends up wed to rancher Heath Jameson. But what's in it for Heath? The possibility of having a real wife eventually, perhaps?

Ally Blake continues the Brides of Bella Lucia with Wanted: Outback Wife (4), as she affectionately mocks the "marriage of convenience" convention while utilizing it effectively. This is good fun, and Heath's a treat on many levels.

This book is available now online in the UK and North America or on shelves in bookstores in October. It is part of the Brides of Bella Lucia miniseries which have been getting rave reviews all over the place, including Linda Goodnight's 4 and 1/2 star Top Pick! Check out our blog about the series for all the inside goss.

Also next month's Harlequin Romances are now up at the Harlequin Romance Authors blog, and the covers are just goooooorrrrgeous!!! Check them out here...
