Dear Readers,

I am beyond delighted to announce I’ve been nominated for a Ruby ( Romantic Book of the Year) from Romance Writers of Australia.

The book is my 97th- Illicit Italian Nights– and it was written under the most difficult circumstances.

I had back surgery and a long rehabilitation and missed my first deadline in my career, which really upset me because I hate letting people down. What a joy it is that readers loved this book enough to nominate it for such a prestigious award.

My other news is that our double bathroom renovation is finished! No more outdoor showers and portaloo! Now we are about to renovate our bedroom but fortunately we have a couple of spare rooms to use.

Happy reading,

Melanie xxx
