Lani's A Winner!!
It's absolutely true!
The Literary Chicks are completely thrilled to bits to announce that our Lovely Lani won a RITA for best first book with Time Off For Good Behavior last night!
The RITA is awarded by The Romance Writers of America, and is kind of like the Oscars of the Romance writing world! So it's a BIG DEAL. HUGE.
CONGRATULATIONS LANI !!!!!!!!!! WAHOOO!!!!!!
