Wait, that’s just Texas and Chicago right?

I’m against animal testing. And I am so fricking glad to see the happy on these dogs’ faces.

Paraphrased from the site: These beagles have known nothing except the confines of metal cages.  They have known no soft human touch, no warm bed, no companionship, no  love. They have never been outside or sniffed a tree or grass. ARME got  the call that a facility was willing to release them to us after they  had been used in several tests. They were picked up on June 8th and now  they are all in loving foster homes, and one has already been adopted.

I owe a HUGE thank you to everyone who bought Dirty Kiss. It’s September 25. A few months after Dirty Kiss has been published and still doing well. Thank you. Snooks.

I’m sure all of you know that promo work is the devil’s torment. How much does one promote? How pushy can one be? I hate promo because I feel like I’m imposing. Ah, can’t I just send cookies and hope for the best? :::grins:::

On the review front, Dirty Kiss has been doing well, I think.

Top 2 Bottom Reviews gave DK a 5 ♥ http://bit.ly/qdRnkt
mmgoodbookreviews gave DK a 4.5 ♥ http://bit.ly/odBOZ6
Smexy Books gave DK a B+ http://bit.ly/omPHUD (not sure how that equates to stars, kisses or hearts but woot ^_^)

Goodreads overall has DK sitting at a 4.20+ at the moment so that is all well and good.

Now, on to the sequel!
