If you’re looking to pick up a book this summer that’ll keep you sizzling long after you’ve left the sand, choose one by Alice Gaines. Preferably Miss Foster’s Folly which will be released June 2010. Not only is Alice a talented writer, she’s a wonderfully helpful acquaintance from San Francisco’s Chapter of RWA.

She’s received acclaim for many of her books, the ones below being no exception.

For Master of the Elements: “Readers who enjoy a quick, sensuous escape from reality will be satisfied.”– Gail Pruszkowski, Romantic Times

For Child of Balance: “Ms. Gaine’s style is lyrical, with amazing imagery that will stay with you long after the last page has been turned.”– Jan Zimlich, Author of The Shadow Prince, historical fantasy

A full listing of her books can be found at www.alicegaines.blogspot.com

I’m sure Miss Foster’s Folly from Carina Press will garner the same rave reviews as her last. I mean, come on, how could you resist a cover this beautiful?

Can’t wait until June!
