Comments on: From the Editor: Kimberley Young on “A Bid for Love” http://www.iheartpresents.com/2008/11/from-the-editor-kimberley-young-on-a-bid-for-love/ Thu, 11 Mar 2010 00:23:56 -0500 http://wordpress.org/?v=abc hourly 1 By: Amy http://www.iheartpresents.com/2008/11/from-the-editor-kimberley-young-on-a-bid-for-love/comment-page-1/#comment-48125 Amy Wed, 26 Nov 2008 22:48:43 +0000 http://www.iheartpresents.com/?p=370#comment-48125 "But the motivations are tricky and now I’m scared… Risks? It was never my plan to take risks!" No risks, no rewards, right Lucy? I was reading a synopsis for an upcoming February Presents Extra and a couple of the plot points had me thinking, "Holy-moley, how is the author going to handle THAT?" -- but definitely in a good way, since now I really want to get my hands on it to see what happens and how things work out. I might as well stop being a tease and say it's "Mistress: Hired for the Billionaire's Pleasure" by India Grey. It's already been out in the UK, so please no spoilers :) “But the motivations are tricky and now I’m scared… Risks? It was never my plan to take risks!”

Yep, Kimberley's feedback is lovely. But the motivations are tricky and now I'm scared... Risks? It was never my plan to take risks! Don't know what I'm doing half the time - it's not just my hero who's perplexed ;) Lucy Hello!

Just wanted to add that I read your first chapter and synopsis and thought they were brilliant. I think you've taken some real risks with your story. A grieving hero especially I thought was going to be a tough one to pull off and still keep that fun, flirty tone so essential to Modern Heat - but you certainly nailed it in that first chapter. Ummm, he was delicious. Strong, silent, sexy and sort of perplexed, just the way I like them. Good luck on your work with Kim, but from her post here (and the evidence so far) I don't think it'll be long before we'll be reading all about your call story! Heidi Congrats again Lucy.

Getting those motivations right is so difficult isn't it? Especially in one chapter. I reckon you nailed it though. Good luck with Kimberley - would love to hear how you're getting on.
