Merry Christmas
and a
Happy New Year!!!

I wanted to drop in and wish you all a joy filled Christmas and a prosperous New Year! May the peace and spirit of the season fill your days with happiness for this year and beyond!

I've been absent for awhile and I apologize. I've been hard at work trying to finish the sequel to Kiss of Deceit, Eyes of Betrayal. If you liked Marcus 'Snake' Gallego, then you will love Egan 'Villain' Tate. Snake and LeAnne are back for round two while heroine Whitney Montgomery gives Tate a run for his money. This book is due out late spring of 2002. A sneak peak was put in the back of the paperback copy of The Hour Before Dawn, and will soon go live on my site!

Speaking of The Hour Before Dawn, I just got news that my novel finaled in the EPPIE Awards! The ceremony will be held in Seattle, WA this year. Cross your fingers for me! I'm up against some pretty stiff competition. :-)

I am finally rested from my trip to Orlando last month to the Romantic Time's Booklovers Convention. This was my first RT and I am definitely looking forward to going again. A good time was had by all. And to celebrate that, I have included pictures on my website now. Go to the home page and click on the 'Pictures' button for two pages of fun.

Also now included on my website is a message board! I want to know what you think about my books, where you were disappointed, what you loved, feedback, ideas, anything you want to discuss! So please--feel free to use the forum! I put it up with you in mind!!

All my books are now available in paperback through http://amazon.com , http://www.bn.com , and save 20% by ordering directly through my publisher at http://rfiwest.com . And as always--please send me an email for a free signed bookplate for the inside cover of your books! Also--as a way of saying thanks, I'll include a magnetic bookmark I made for the RT Convention this year. Those little markers went fast at the convention. :-)

And finally, I now own my domain. So you can always access my pages by going to http://www.patriciarasey.com . And please--feel free to send this newsletter to anyone you think might be interested!

Until next time, may the sun always shine!
