All Night Inn is out!




My parafolk book, All Night Inn, has just been released from Cerridwen, the non-erotic imprint of Ellora's Cave!

ALL NIGHT INN by Janet Miller

I wrote this book first, then have written other parafolk books since then. Fangs For The Memories by Cricket Starr which came out two weeks ago had Sharon and Jonathan show up briefly. Kind of a cameo appearance. That book has gotten a lot of attention. I sure hope people enjoy this book as well.

Cheers!

Sold another book!


I've finally finished a second science fiction romance book in the futuristic world I created in Promises To Keep and sold it to New Concepts Publishing. Titled Beloved Enemy this book actuallly takes place earlier than Promises To Keep, during the last years of the Earth/Gaian war.

It is about two pilots from opposite sides of the war who are stranded on a deserted planet. Mea is a member of Earthforce and a survivor of the expulsion of her people, the Travelers, from the mining platforms that had been her childhood home. Kavath is a Gaian pilot whose sister was killed in the first attack Earth made against the rebel planet. But when Mea turns out to be his sexual match, she and Kavath must decide if what is drawing them together is more important than what is keeping them apart.

Sound good? I hope so!

Cerridwen Cover!




As I said earlier, I sold my parafolk book, All Night Inn, to Cerridwen, the non-erotic imprint of Ellora's Cave. While the release date isn't set yet, I've got my cover, showing my vampire, Jonathan, playing the guitar for Sharon, his new companion. They are outside in the moonlight. So romantic!


Can't you just imagine what kind of beautiful music they are going to make together?

Five Angels and a Recommended Read!


Fallen Angels Review: Memories To Come

My little story Memories To Come has been receiving some wonderful reviews, the latest of which is from Fallen Angels Reviews. Here is what Tanya has do say:

Memories to Come is an Ellora's Cave quickie that I enjoyed immensely. As I experienced what Remak experienced, I desperately wanted a happy ending for the hero. While I don't want to reveal too many plot details, suffice it to say, I was caught up in the events of the story as they unfolded and wished for his safety and well-being. I credit Cricket Starr for writing such a beautifully told story. Once I had started reading, I did not want the story to end.

The love scenes are frequent, tender, and passionate. Remak and the woman of his visions enjoy soulful, spine-tingling sex, made more poignant by the fact that there is love behind every kiss and caress.

Cricket Starr's Memories to Come is an outstanding story. Thoroughly engrossing and filled with rich and vibrant characters, Memories to Come is a story I highly recommend.


Is that cool or WHAT?

Promises To Keep #1 at FICTIONWISE!


All week I've been watching my fictionwise ranking for my futurist novel, PROMISES TO KEEP as it rose, and rose, and rose... At this time I'm number one in the ROMANCE category and #8 overall in sales, which means that a lot of people have bought my book over the past couple of weeks.

http://www.Fictionwise.com/ebooks/RomanceEbooks.htm

This totally thrills me. One of the reasons for writing a book is to create a story to share with others and good sales means a lot of sharing.

My thanks to all of you who've contributed to those sales figures. It really makes me feel good knowing there are so many of you out there reading my stories.
