Freebie Read for December

My good friend Michelle Styles, who writes for Mills and Boon Historical, has a free read up this month over on the eHarlequin boards. His Stand-In Bride is a regency and we're up to chapter four this week. Well worth popping over for! And in other news, Michelle and I both have Roman set books out in February so we're planning some fun then!

I'm a third of the way through Enslaved, so am happy about that. Things always slow down writing wise over the Christmas holidays although I'm hoping to hit 40k before the big day.

And speaking of Christmas the tree is up, the presents are wrapped and I'm almost done with the shopping, hooray!

Babbling About Books...

I discovered another wonderful review for Forbidden the other day, from Katiebabs at Babbling About Books, and More:

"Christina Phillips has a nice way with words and setting up a story. Her love scenes have just the right amount of heat and should appeal to those readers who like a little more spice and passion. Forbidden was an enjoyable read by an author who can really tap into the emotions of her characters and the world around them. For a solid reading experience, I would recommend Forbidden."

That made me very happy!!!

I'm deep in the world of Enslaved now, and really enjoying getting to know both Nimue and Tacitus. I love when they surprise me with unexpected revelations from their past!

A New Sale!

I'm absolutely thrilled to announce Berkley Heat have bought the third book in my Forbidden series, ENSLAVED. This is the story of Nimue, a Druid priestess who appears near the end of Captive. As soon as she appeared I knew I wanted to tell her story and I'm so excited I'll be able to!

Here's the blurb from Publishers Marketplace:

Christina Phillips's ENSLAVED, in which a druid priestess is captured and enslaved to a Roman tribune who must decide whether his loyalty lies with his heritage or the woman he suspects may be Rome's deadliest enemy...
