Welcome to Studio Notes! The official newsletter of The Romance Studio.

News:

  • VACATION SCHEDULE - Please note, TRS will close for staff vacations for the following dates:

    7/3/09-7/10/09

    Thank you! This is a change from the dates previously advertised. We WILL have book-a-day giveaways on 7/3. Thank you!

  • This summer, TRS is all about -- HEROES! Look for more details on the fun and festivities soon! During this special summer, we want to celebrate heroes -- good and bad! We also want to use this opportunity to share information with readers about ebooks and ebook piracy. We welcome any information any of you would like to see included in this special educational endeavor. Please email us.

  • Name our new GLBT section @ TRS!

    We're really excited about our new GLBT section of TRS which is to launch on August 1, 2009. A name has been chosen! The most popular name submitted was The Rainbow Studio! Congrats to Erastes for picking the winning name. Your amazon gift card has been sent!

  • Ch-ch-ch-changing... Everything and everyone changes over the course of time -- including us! You'll be seeing some changes at TRS throughout the rest of the year as we grow and improve. If you have any questions about anything, never hesitate to email us! We'll promise to answer!

  • Advertising: Changes! We've made some changes to advertising at TRS. http://theromancestudio.com/advertise.php.

    Random cover ads: First, we're no longer offering random cover ads (though we will still offer random banner ads that appear in the rotation of the upper right corner of each page of our site). This will have no impact on ads already in place or purchases or advertising packages that already have random cover ads. Those will go on just as scheduled or purchased. We just won't be selling any new random cover ad spaces. Once all of the purchased random cover ad space is used, these spaces will go to static cover ad spaces.

    Did you know that static cover ads rotate (counter clockwise) on a daily basis? This way we can ensure everyone has a shot at those top spots.

    Advertising packages: We made changes to our advertising packages -- six month and one year. First they will no longer offer a random cover ad space for each month. Now they will offer two static ad spaces! (can be cover or banner) This will provide better coverage for our package advertisers. Also, we're no longer offering the banner designs or trailer ad spaces in the packages as these were being used less than half the time by advertisers who selected the extra time instead. We've also lowered the prices! This will have no impact on existing packages which will go on as planned. Just newly purchased packages from this point on.

    GLBT section: We're now reserving space for ads in this new section which will launch on 8/1! We have plenty of space and there will be no random cover ad spaces used in this new section. Reserve your space today! Book video ads/Flash ad designs: We're in the beginning stages of offering book video designs. We'll be accepting new projects on a limited basis for the next couple of months. Price per design will vary depending on how long the video is, how many images are needed, cost of music file, etc. -- but our goal will be to make these as cost efficient as possible. We'll also be designing ads in Flash. You can see samples on our advertising page (http://theromancestudio.com/advertise.php)

    Now, are you ready?

    SAAAAAAAAAAAAAAALLLLLLLLLLLLLEEEEEEE! Our last sale of the summer! It's BUY 1 GET 1 FREE (on everything but Google ads, Book video ads, and Flash ads) from 7/2 - 7/10.

  • Amazon Gift Certificate giveaways coming exclusively to Studio Notes subscribers! See details in your email and enter for your chance to win a $25 gift certificate for Amazon!

Two minds united against a common foe. Two hearts afraid to show their love: Long ago Tamarith fell in love with a man she can never have, and is convinced she will never love another. However, she cannot help but be intrigued by a handsome stranger whose psychic powers exceed even her own. Vidarh seeks only to find his true purpose in life and to win the regard of his father, who eschews his son’s psychic abilities. Thrown together by a common threat to their planet, then torn apart by an evil greater than any they could have imagined, can Vidarh save the lovely Nifl woman who has captivated him, before it is too late? Will Tamarith and Vidarh overcome the deadly enemy who threatens to destroy all they know and love? Will they find the happiness they both seek? Or are they fated to live their lives alone?

In this sequel to Starquest, Hywela Lyn has created a spellbinding story that will take you on a journey beyond your wildest imagination. Children of the Mist is full of adventure from the first page to the last. Hywela Lyn has created vulnerable characters that unite as one to form an unbreakable bond that is palpable through the pages. From the very start, I felt like I knew Tamarith and Vidarh as they journeyed through time and straight into my heart. If you like high adventure, fantasy, emotions that will tug at your heart strings, and romance that will leave you breathless, Children of the Mist is for you. I recommend this book as an unforgettable love story of two soulmates destined to meet. by Sharon Donovan

How do you tell Satan that you ran over his hellhound?

Evangeline Hollis has no idea and she doesn't want to find out. Living with the Mark of Cain--and the two sexy brothers who come with it--is trouble enough. She doesn't need to borrow more. Too bad Satan is too pissed to oblige her.

Incensed at the loss of his pet, Satan has put a bounty on Eve's head, and Hell's denizens are converging en masse. The proliferation of Infernals is complicating Eve's hunts and creating chaos in her once orderly life. They've also brought her to the attention of an overzealous reverend who is certain she's Jezebel reincarnate.

How can a Mark drafted by God strike a bargain with the Devil? Eve's about to find out...

"Eve of Chaos is the third novel in the Marked series and is as engrossing as the previous releases. Ms. Day pulls readers into her well-built world with solid characters, strong emotions, and action on every page. Eve of Chaos delivers all of the danger, romance and paranormal adventure that readers of the genre look for. This is a must read for fans of the Marked series."

The tales of the mansion near Nika’s remote Russian village say that its lord drinks blood to live and that the guards are dead men walking, but that doesn’t stop Nika from falling for one of them—a man who seemingly hasn’t changed in twenty years, a man she wishes would be hers. One snowy spring night, her world and his collide when she is attacked by wolves and he rides in on a black horse to rescue her. But her knight in shining armour is far from saintly. He is a vampire, and she is becoming a werewolf, and love between such species is forbidden—the penalty death. Winter is a commander of the Validus, the most powerful vampire bloodline in Europe. Faithful to his family and his lord since his turning one thousand years ago, he follows the law to the letter and places duty above all else, but his resolve is about to be tested in the most painful way and his world shaken beyond salvation. The girl he watched grow into a woman, a woman who has stolen his heart, is now a werewolf and his dream of making her his has been shattered. Only vengeance can be his now or the Law Keepers will hunt him down and kill both him and Nika. But Winter’s plan to take Nika home to her family only leads to her witnessing the destruction of her village and the death of her father at the hands of the werewolf trying to claim her, and Winter finds that he can’t leave her. His heart demands that he protects Nika from the werewolf, Willem, by killing him and that he finds her a new home, somewhere she will be safe without him, for he must even protect her from himself. But Nika tempts him more than he can bear and it isn’t long before he finds himself treading the knife’s edge between upholding the law and succumbing to desire. Nika does everything in her power to convince Winter to stay with her, to go against the laws and risk death, but in the end will she have done enough? When they reach the last bastion of the werewolves, will Winter leave her with her kin? Will the nights they spend together change his heart and his mind, or will she spend eternity dreaming of Winter’s kiss? THE VAMPIRES REALM STORIES ALL STAND ALONE AND DO NOT NEED TO BE READ IN ORDER. THEY ARE LINKED ONLY BY THE WORLD IN WHICH THEY ARE SET. IF YOU ENJOY THIS STORY, BE SURE TO READ THE OTHERS TO LEARN MORE ABOUT THIS DARK AND PASSIONATE WORLD.

When Sly walked away, Trace was certain he'd lost the only man he'd ever love. Then he met Cord DeMoss and learned a man can love twice, even while the heart still belongs to another. Now Sly is back and, to Trace's surprise, Cord sends him straight to Sam's arms. Cord stopped gambling. But when he spots Sam at the bar and realizes he's the man who holds the other half of Trace's heart, he places one last bet. If he loses it could cost him his heart. But if he wins he will be able to give both his cowboys what they want.

James Armen’s only wish is a home and family. Beth Havens is a widow with twin little girls. She never imagined life with a vampire hunter. He never dreamed that he’d be blessed with daughters. Devon vowed to do anything to have Michelle as mate. When he goes too far in the grips of printing madness, it’s up to Devon to make peace somehow, even if that means serving her father, James Lord Armen. Insubordinate. Bastard cursed. Felon. Scott Danvers has been called many things in his life, few of them favorable. Born to a blade chaser and hidden from the Warriors, Scott is nothing like his peers, from his blond-tipped hair and tattoos to his attitude. Alyssa Bradley is a minefield, a Warrior widow, traumatized, alone and pregnant. But Daniel Hunter knows there’s something beyond that, something his gut tells him is much worse. Why does her dead husband’s name make her tremble in fear? Why doesn’t she know anything about the rules of sanction? Why didn’t she form a bond with Tom’s family? Most importantly, can she accept a Warrior mate after everything Tom Armen has done to her?

“I have read Lyons’ work, and she has never put out something that I did not enjoy. Maybe I’m just that agreeable...but I think she is really just that good. Yeah, she’s just that good.” Marissa for Novelspot

The melding of hot sex with the sweet and savory treats Gabe creates epitomizes Carmen’s very own version of nirvana. She revels in the freedom of their relationship, in their shared fascination and absolute obsession with food. A true glutton, Carmen is rarely satisfied. Always, she craves more—more food, more sex, more of Gabe. Just one more spicy tryst on Gabe’s dining room table, one more cupcake, one more sinfully rich chocolate truffle . . . . But with a crazed food critic out for her blood, Carmen’s gluttony may be a weakness that proves fatal.
