A Deadline Dame Birthday

By Dame Jackie

Yes, it’s true — today is my birthday. 39!!! Yow. Officially flirting with 40. You know what that means, right? Yes, correct: cake for breakfast!

And, along with that, a birthday giveaway!!!

Go ahead and leave a comment. And on Saturday, December 12, I’ll pick a winner at random to receive any book from my backlist. So you can pick from HELL’S BELLES, THE ROAD TO HELL, ETERNAL LOVER, HOTTER THAN HELL, A RED HOT VALENTINE’S DAY, or BLACK AND WHITE.

(Yes, it’s a short post today. Heck, there’s cake that needs eating!)

    Happy Birthday! Cake for breakfast sounds like a wonderful idea. My ‘baby’ will be 9 on the 13th so maybe we will have cake for breakfast then. And that reminds me that I need to order his cake!

    Hope that your year is healthy, happy and prosperous for you and yours.

  7. Tez Miller says:

    It’s all right, lass, you’re not even old enough to be my mother – she’s in her fifties ;-)

    By the way, the pre-order link for the re-release of HOTTER THAN HELL is up at Amazon.

  20. Erin Thompson says:

    Happy Birthday! I have a milestone birthday coming up myself, but I’ve decided I just want to be 29 forever, so I am skipping 30!

  21. Julia P. says:

    Happy Birthday! Enjoy the year of “knocking on 40,” as any and all decisions, activities, and personal quirks that you decide to add to your arsenal can be explained away with, “Hey, I know what I’m doing, I’m knocking on 40.” I believe a certain amount of actual ‘knocking’ of other people is also permitted.

  22. Elie N says:

    Happy Birthday, you know 40 is the new 20, so that would meet today your…19! yay. Your only as old as you act.

  23. Joni G. says:

  87. Cathy M says:

    Wishing you a wonderful birthday, Jackie. I think that cake for breakfast should be one of the four food groups, lol. Does that mean you get double the presents, or do you get a combo gift that covers both Christmas and birthday?

  88. sheere says:
