I'm sitting here, stunned and excited. In the Darkest Night was reviewed by Publishers Weekly. Favorably. Not just favorably, it earned a starred review.
For those of you who are unfamiliar, PW only reviews four mass market fiction books a week. There are separate sections for Mystery and for SF/Fantasy, but romance has to compete with all other fiction for those those four slots. Just getting reviewed at all is something big. Getting a great review is even more awesome and only the books that stood out get a star in front of their review.
This is only my second PW review. It's my first to earn a star. To say I'm excited would be understating it.
No, most readers won't see it, although Books a Million and some of the other online retailers have an arrangement with PW to load their reviews onto their websites for those books. But it's still hugely, enormously exciting. :-)
I'm so happy that In the Darkest Night garnered such a great review. I love all my books, but this one was just a little extra special to me and Kel grabbed me hard.
To give a brief snipped of the review, Publishers Weekly called the book: "a riveting thrill ride" and used the word "enthralled."
Happy dog dancing here. Big time!
