Last month Nina did a very cool thing. Her very first Podcast! She was interviewed by one of her very fave Harlequin people, Toronto eHarlequin mogul Malle Vallik, about Nina’s June Silhouette Romantic Suspense release, KILLER TEMPTATION. In the Podcast, she talks about everything from the plot of the book, to continuities, to being an archaeologist. “It was incredibly fun to do, and came out really well I thought!”
The Podcast is available free to download from Collectik.com, or from Mediafly.com, or you can listen to it right on the eHarlequin.com website, or load it onto your iPod directly from iTunes (under Podcasts: Arts/Literature/Harlequin Author Spotlight: 14). She’d love to hear what you think of it!
The good news just keeps coming! Nina just found out she is a TRIPLE finalist in the 2008 Daphne du Maurier Awards. “Oh. My. God. This is such a thrill, I can’t even tell you how incredible this is!” she says. The Daphnes are put on by the Kiss of Death chapter of the RWA, in order to recognize the very best in romantic suspense fiction each year. Nina has won the overall Best Romantic Suspense Book of the Year award twice before, as well as three Series Contemp first place awards. This year she has three different books nominated in the Series Contemp category: NIGHT MISCHIEF (Silhouette Nocturne), THE FORBIDDEN ENCHANTMENT (Silhouette Romantic Suspense), and TOP-SECRET BRIDE (Silhouette Romantic Suspense).

Just got the news that Nina’s first ever Silhouette Nocturne, NIGHT MISCHIEF, has been nominated for this year’s Rita Awards, in the category Series Contemporary. “Wow! I really love this book. Probably one of my all-time personal faves. Needless to say I’m over the moon,” says Nina. The awards are announced in July, at the RWA National conference in San Francisco.
Speaking of which, Nina and her daughter will be driving cross country together (ROAD TRIP!!!) from Charleston to SF. Looking forward to great adventures. Nina says she can’t wait to see some of her own stomping grounds. Did you know she attended Cal State Sonoma? Yep. The original Granola State (or Space Station Sonoma as they used to call it). Great times were had by all.
Nina is thrilled to announce she has sold 3 books to New York powerhouse Berkley Publishing, a division of Penguin/Putnam. The trio of romantic thrillers will take readers from the burning sands of the Sahara, to the sultry depths of the Louisiana swamps, to high adventure in Washington DC. The first book in the series, RUN TO DANGER, will be released in August 2008, followed by LOVE BY DANGER in December 2008, and winding up with SLEEP WITH DANGER in April 2009.

Readers who loved Nina’s debut Silhouette Nocturne, NIGHT MISCHIEF, will be happy to hear she was just offered a contract for a three book series, to be published sometime in 2009 or early 2010! The LORDS OF DARKNESS trilogy is set in contemporary Egypt, featuring three sisters. Brave women all, it would never occur to any of them to fear the dead. But that is all about to change…
