Oooh, the time is getting closer my friends! Elena’s book actually has a release date, December 30, and cover art for both editions. And now you can see that you will be able to buy it either as a trade or mass market paperback:
You can preorder at Amazon or Random House (not yet available through B&N). Or sign up for a one-time reminder via email here.
EDIT PS I posted this in the comments, but it belongs here, too: Oh, Lost Recipe definitely has a love story at the core. It’s a very sexy book, too, on so many levels. Many of the comments so far have been along the lines of, “whew!”
But how could it not have an erotic edge, with all the food and love and rediscovery going on? What do you want to do when you fall in love with life again? Make love to it!
Oooh, Barbara. That’s a gorgeous cover. Are those peppers? (Nevermind. I blew the cover up and see that they are.) Love the script. Now, about that name??? You said you’d talk about it ‘later’. Is this ‘later’?
ditto on the name! Intriguing
Gorgeous cover though
I was really surprised by the name too.
And, the cover is very pretty and appealing and eye-popping.
That is one beautiful cover. Can’t wait to read it 🙂
Short version of the name change: Samuel is my married name, and that was beginning to feel awkward. I also would like to keep the “brands” separated.
O’Neal is my grandmother’s maiden name, and even when I was a young girl, I said Barbara O’Neal would be my writing name. Suddenly, it was time.
I’ll still be writing romance (maybe even some historical romance) as Samuel.
Have you ever known anyone with so many names as me? 🙂
Thanks for clearing that up, Barbara. So…is this book not a romance? If not, what would you describe it as? Or am I getting ahead of things here?
Oh, Lost Recipe absolutely has a romance at its core. It’s a very sexy book, too, on so many levels. Many of the comments so far have been along the lines of, “whew!”
But how could it not have an erotic edge, with all the food and love and rediscovery going on? What do you want to do when you fall in love with life again? Make love to it!
Absolutely. I have always loved the way you blend romance so realistically into your characters lives.
