He knows he spent a weekend with Susannah Horton and afterwards lost a major deal to her fiancee. He is sure she spent that weekend with him to ensure her fiance's success. Since the final papers have not been signed as yet, Van resolves to arrange a night where he can have Susannah again and ruin the deal and her engagement as well.

Have I mentioned lately that I have a book out? And that you should buy it? :-)

In case you're wondering if it's your cup of tea or not, here's a review just in from The Romance Readers Connection. Deborah Hosey does a brill. job summarising the story setup.

"After a brutal mugging, millionaire businessman Donovan Keane doesn't remember the weekend he'd just spent with Susannah Horton. He has pieced together the details and he's convinced that she sabotaged his bid for The Palisades hotel he desperately wants. Susannah never heard from Van after that weekend despite the promises he made, so she got on with her life and accepted a friend's marriage proposal when he agreed to bail her business out of financial trouble. Van's summoned her to get to the nitty gritty of what went wrong with their original deal, and though he might not remember their passionate weekend, he can easily imagine taking the lovely Susannah to his bed. Now that she's engaged and The Palisades Hotel is part of the marriage contract, there's only one thing to do: keep Susannah with him and somehow stop the wedding...and try not to lose his heart once again.

TYCOON'S ONE-NIGHT REVENGE is an intense and entertaining read. It combines an amnesia plot, sexual tension, the beauty of Tasmania, and an already-familiar set up from Jameson's Princes of the Outback trilogy to make it a must-read Silhouette Desire. Bronwyn Jameson always provides compelling reading, and TYCOON'S ONE-NIGHT REVENGE is this and more!"

End of shameless self-promotion.

This weekend was my mum's 80th birthday with a surprise party to celebrate. Most of my wondering was about how to keep that secret from an incurably curious woman who needs to know all. We managed and the lunch party was a huge success, thanks to the brilliant skills of my big sister.

In between times I did do some wondering about reviews, after volunteering to write a movie review for The Pink Heart Society's Friday Film Night. Which format works best? How to precis the storyline without revealing too much? Whether to talk structure and writing technique or to aim at readers/viewers? In the end I spent far too long stewing over what was supposed to be a fun project and last night I forced myself to sit down and write the piece.

It was not easy. I spent way too much time on it. And this morning I woke thinking about a key scene I left out and should have mentioned seeing as it completes the hero's character arc, but I have managed to sit on my hands while repeating "leave it be, Bronwyn, just let it go." On the positive side, this has left me with a new appreciation for reviewers. Hats off to anyone who can encapsulate a story plot and its impact on them as a reader in a few short paragraphs. I can't. Guess that's why I'm writing novels instead of shorts.
