bookmarks!
My new bookmarks just arrived, & they are freakin’ GORGEOUS!!!
This one is kind of different & special, too. Normally, I have bookmarks designed to promote a certain title or titles…usually the single titles that have a longer shelf life than the Harlequin Desires, but of course I always mention the Desires—by title & with a release date, if I can.
But I started to run out of bookmarks for my “Chicks with Sticks” trilogy, & even though they aren’t as readily available as when they were first released (one is even out-of-print, I believe), all three are still available in e-book. So I want to keep them out there in front of readers, letting everyone know about my funny, sexy contemporaries. :lolol
And then, as you know, my funny, sexy vampire romances were originally released in trade size, but have since been (or will soon be) reissued in mass market paperback—with brand new covers! So of course I needed bookmarks that reflected that.
What to do? What to do? :scratchhead
I know! I’ll design a bookmark that promotes everything altogether! (Well, I won’t, but I know people who know people who got skillz. :howyoudoin )
And this is what we came up with:
See, I told you—GORGEOUS!!!
One side is all about the “Chicks with Sticks” with all three covers—TANGLED UP IN LOVE, LOVES ME, LOVES ME KNOT, & KNOCK ME FOR A LOOP—front & center for all the world to see.
Then we tacked on our cute little Demon & Angel gals from right here at WIPs and Chains to show just how sometimes naughty, sometimes nice I can be. :devil
The other side goes to the vamps… The brand new, mass market paperback covers of THE BITE BEFORE CHRISTMAS & MUST LOVE VAMPIRES, with some great quotes to dress it up.
And then a little mention of my Harlequin Desires (for anyone who doesn’t know to keep an eye out for them :happysun ) & a nice, long list of everywhere you can find me online.
Of course, it does me absolutely no good to keep them all to myself. I mean, they’re pretty & I certainly love looking at them, but they really need to be shared! :eeee
So they’re up for grabs! Just contact me via the form on my website with your name & mailing address, & I’ll send one your way. Heck, if you’ve got a friend who’d like one, I’ll send two. If you’ve got a book club to hand them out at, I’ll send a dozen. Just let me know. :patrick

Happy 4th of July

“…a delight to read”
A wonderful new review for ON THE VERGE OF I DO has come in, & I just have to share! :cheer
Our very own sometimes-Darling, Debra G. had this to say about Kara & Eli’s story in her review for CataRomance.com:
A book by Heidi Betts is always a delight to read.
On the Verge of I Do has some amazingly witty exchanges and a hero and a heroine to die for. They may be perfectly matched, but we can feel Kara’s indecision knowing that her sister will not approve of her involvement with her ex-fiancée. Eli, however, knows when everything is as it should be. He just needs to convince Kara.
Join in on the fun with Heidi Betts and On the Verge of I Do and follow along as Kara and Eli go from friends to lovers. You will not be sorry!
Thank you, Debra! You can bet you’ll be seeing that first, ever-so-quoteable line on some upcoming bookmarks & promo materials. :eeee
You can read the full review here at CataRomance’s newly redesigned (& adorable, if I do say so myself :howyoudoin ) website.
