  6. Sure, I buy Uncut Diamonds a few weeks ago and now you come up with this great two for one deal. But that's OK, I'll show you, I'll just buy House of Diamonds, keep it for me and then give the other away for Christmas present. See how brilliant I am? See how smart WiDO is? :)

  8. Thanks for all the well wishes! I remember when Uncut Diamonds launched and I had a new blog over on Vox, a blogging site which no longer exists, and I had about 4 or 5 followers who welcomed my first novel into the world. How much different it is for this one, thanks to so many wonderful friends online.

    I do hope you'll all swing by Jordan's blog because she has done a fabulous job on her post.

    Thank you to Jordan/Charmalot and to all of you who are sending warm fuzzies.
