What Leslie had to say on Friday, April 4th, 2008
Leslie’s Jungle Madness Friday!
Leslie Icon

Carly’s having a fabulous time in Phoenix, so we switched contest weeks this month.

I’ve been putting together some Advance Reader Copies of my next book, SLOW HANDS, coming from Blaze in June.

Thought I’d offer one more here.

And since this book features a wonderfully warm, funny and sexy all-American rescue worker hero, thought somebody might enjoy this too:

You know what to do! Just leave a comment and you’re entered for the ARC and the FDNY 2008 Calendar!

Leslie

LeslieLeslie Kelly used to say she wanted to be a doctor when she grew up, but then she discovered Nancy Drew books. Being a flashlight-under-the-covers-nose-in-book reader throughout her childhood, she couldn’t think of anything else she’d rather do as an adult than continue to lose herself in fictional stories. Her real life marriage of 20 years to the man of her dreams is a constant reinforcement that happily-ever-afters really can happen…and that they’re worth writing about. Living in Maryland, Leslie spends her non-writing time laughing a lot with the above-mentioned romance hero and their three daughters. Though an author of more than thirty sexy, contemporary comedies, she has recently branched out to write dark romantic suspense under the pseudonym Leslie Parrish.

    Happy Friday to all. Nice prize – love a book and eye candy to boot.

    Don’t think I told you my good news – I will be a grandma in the fall – my daughter and my sil are bestowing the honor on me and hubby. We are so thrilled; this is our first.

    I was a bookkeeper for a fire department in south florida. The only gal in the office. Believe me, the fellows really do look like these calendar boys. It was such a pleasure to go to work, with such great perks.
    Oh, the memories!!!!
