I’m taking part in Rainbow Reviews Scavenger Hunt. If you’re a fan of gay romances and enjoy exploring the internet for new books and authors then this is the contest for you. The winners will be announced on 30th June so get hunting now!
I’ve received a really great review from Fallen Angel Reviews for Wanderlust. Cheryl, the reviewer said, “What a splendid read Wanderlust was. If you are looking for adventure, romance, suspense and plain old fun than Shelley Munro’s latest Wanderlust is the book for you.” Five Angels. Here’s the link to the full review.
And finally, I have a new release out tomorrow! Actually, you’re going to see quite a few releases from me in the coming months since I’ve been very busy. I just love it in that writing cave. 
Lovers at Last features pearls and is a friend to lovers story. It’s set in Auckland, New Zealand. I’ll post the blurb tomorrow but thought I would leave you with a snippet about pearls.
Did you know that Cleopatra and her lover Marc Antony wagered about whether she could give the most expensive banquet in history? He accepted her bet and during the dinner, Cleopatra took off one of her pearl earrings, which was extremely large and valuable, crushed it, dissolved it in vinegar and drank it. Marc Antony acknowledged her win.
A lady with attitude. I don’t know if I could drink my wealth so casually. What do you think?
Congrats on the new book coming out tomorrow. Many happy sales.
I need to get busy like you, again. I’m writing, just not as fast as sometimes. Then again, I am on vacation.

Christine - thanks! I love scavenger hunts but can’t do this one since I’m taking part.
Thanks, JK.
Thanks, Wylie!
Hi Estella. I was thrilled with this review.
by Shelley Munro June 3rd, 2008 at 1:19 pmCongrats on the rave review, Shelley.
I’m guessing Cleo really knew how to throw a great party.
by Jane June 3rd, 2008 at 2:59 pmThanks, Jane. I’m guessing you’re right about Cleo. The vinegar can’t have tasted very nice, even with the pearl powder to add to the flavor.
