Second Place in the 2011 Maggies
My Regency romance, Tempting Bella, placed second in the 2011 Maggie awards which were presented by the Georgia Romance Writers last night in Decatur.
Tempting Bella took second place in the historical unpublished category. Author Jennifer McQuiston took first place for her manuscript, A Private Affair. Jennifer and I share an agent – so at least we sort of kept it all in the family!

Congratulations! I can’t wait until your books are in print and I can read them!
Thanks Cara! I have a great deal of respect for the Maggies so I am truly thrilled with my second place finish!
