Lisa Kleypas fans have two reasons to celebrate: Seduce Me at Sunrise, the author's new historical romance in her Hathaway family series, hits stores on September 30th and A Wallflower Christmas, a new novella, featuring the beloved title characters along with rakish Bowman brother Rafe and the companion he's not supposed to want, is out October 14th. (The links take you to nifty trailers for each book.)
Lisa talks about both of these new releases and more in our newest AAR podcast. To listen, just click the podcast icon on the above right and the 14-minute extravaganza will automatically download into your iTunes or into any the software you use to listen to audio files.
To celebrate the podcast and the upcoming Kleypas book bonanza, we're giving away a signed ARC of the upcoming hardback A Wallflower Christmas to a lucky reader. And, just to mix things up a bit and keep things interesting around here, you could have two chances to win. Here's how:
So, everybody straight? Comment to this blog for your first chance to win. If you answer the question correctly and send your answer to the email address above, you'll have a second chance to be selected as the winner by none other than Rufus the Cat, he of the eminent qualifications. A few disclaimers: Rufus does not succumb to cajoling and wheedling since he is a cat and everybody knows cats can't read. A total of two entries only per reader. Rufus and his mom must limit the contest to those who reside in the U.S. And, lastly, the entry deadline is 11:59 pm, eastern time on Thursday, September 11th.
Thanks to Lisa for taking the time at the busy National conference. I had fun. I hope you do, too.

things for her books. How neat would it be to surprise her with an ARC of
this book??
She is a favorite author of mine and I can't wait for her new books.

I read the sneak preview on Lisa's site and can't wait for this one to be
released!
I love Lisa Kleypas' books and I know I will love her two new novels.
Where Dreams Begin is one of my favorite comfort reads so I may have an
actual addiction to her historicals. But I've been surprised at how much
I've loved Sugar Daddy and Blue-Eyed Devil. If I don't win an ARC, you can
be sure I'll be at the store they day Seduce Me at Sunrise is released.
Count me in. I really love all of Lisa's books. I cannot wait to read both
'A Wallflower Christmas' and 'Seduce Me At Sunrise.'
I dreamt that it was 9/30 a few days ago. That's how much I'm looking
forward to reading her books.
Lisa Kleypas is at the top of my auto-buy authors. I never miss one of her
books. This is an awesome prize. Count me in please.
Two releases before the end of the year! Hooray!

kittens when I met Lisa at the RWA last month!! Such an honour to meet
her--she's the most gracious lady and so friendly to everyone!
Okay, I'm not eligible for the contest, but wanted to comment on the
interview. It was really very interesting. I'm so enjoying hearing the
authors' voices. And, I loved listening to her comments on her upcoming
books. Thanks, Sandy!
I love Ms. Kleypas' books. I can't wait to read this one. :)

Super excited about the two books. Can't wait to fall in love with the new
characters.
I can't wait to read this one; please pick me Rufus!!!!!
I find it very interesting that I've only been reading Lisa for about a
year or so. When Kristie J was raving about Dreaming of You she got me
intrigued, I found the book, read it and devoured the rest of her backlist.
So, yes, I would LOVE to win a copy of the ARC. :)
Love Cam...can't wait for this story of Merripen!
I only got to the 6 minute mark and I couldn't hear anymore of the
interview. If someone could fill me in, was there any talk of her new
contemp in March 2009 Smooth Talking Stranger? Thanks.
I loved the Wallflower series. The Wallflower Christmas will be great
chance to catch up with them.
I'm really looking forward to the release of A Wallflower Christmas now :)
& To read up on what's happened to the Wallflowers.
