Dee Davis was recently honored with the New York Chapter of Romance Writers of America’s Golden Apple Award for Author of the Year.  Honored at a lovely reception, Dee shared the stage with among others, Chris Keeslar, Editor of the Year, Suz Brockmann, Lifetime Achievement Award, and Deidre Knight, Agent of the Year.

June 2008

Summertime is the perfect time to settle in at the beach with a cold drink and a good book. Recommended Dee Davis reading:  Her Last Chance series; Endgame, Enigma and Exposure.

  

Or for a walk on the paranormal side her time travels:  Everything in Its Time, The Promise and Wild Highland Rose. 

And there are always Dee’s personal fav’s  Just Breathe and Midnight Rain.

And whatever you do, have a wonderful summer!

February 2008

I’m pleased to announce that I’ve just agreed to write a new romantic suspense series for Grand Central Publishing (formerly Warner Books). The series, about an off-the-books black ops division of the CIA, will kick off with back to back books in 2010. Keep checking my website for updates and more information. In the meantime, I’m putting final touches on Set-up in SoHo the second book in the Matchmaker Chronicles from St. Martin’s Griffin Press. You can check out the first book, A Match Made on Madison, by clicking here.

December 2007

The holidays are upon us. Manhattan is dressed in its finest and Christmas spirit abounds. It snowed yesterday. Just the lightest dusting, but I don’t think I’ll ever get tired of watching the flakes fall past my window. Turns out I’m a winter girl. Who knew? Don’t forget that books make great gifts!

STILL OF THE NIGHT, my holiday suspense novella in the anthology SILENT NIGHT is still available out there. It's a great way to cozy up with a good book and a cup of hot chocolate. Click here to order. Although suspense and Christmas might seem an interesting mix, it is the season for miracles, and that's exactly what Jenny Fitzgerald needs. Click here for an excerpt.

Wishing all of you a wonderful holiday season and a fabulous new year!

October 2007

Fall is here and life is grand. Actually, this is my favorite time of year. And, as icing on the cake, Chain Reaction was honored recently as a finalist for Best Single Title in the NJ Golden Leaf Awards. Always feels good to know someone out there likes your work!

Recently attended the New Jersey Put Your Heart in a Book Conference. Was great to catch up with friends and to hear the latest about the newest trends in the genre, as well as hear from some of the industry’s brightest stars. Then on Sunday went to a wonderful luncheon recognizing local booksellers and all that they do. Without their tireless efforts, many a good book would sit on the bookstore shelf gathering dust.

Anyway, all in all it was a great conference. And now that I’m home, and the temperature is falling (finally), it’s the perfect time to curl up in a cozy spot with a cup of tea and a good book!

August 2007

Just received copies of the British version of Endgame. Great fun. Although it looks pretty much the same as the original, the arrival marks the receipt of my first physical copy of a foreign edition of a Dee Davis book.

After finishing revisions on next year’s Set-Up in SoHo am looking forward to a restful vacation in the San Francisco area. My first time to that part of California. Going to explore, rejuvenate, and catch up on some reading!

July 2007

June 2007

Chain Reaction hits bookshelves this month. Mia Kearney is the sole survivor of a nuclear disaster. Certain that authorities are lying about what’s happened, she sets out on her own to find answers.
