Go On With Your Bad Self Girlfriend!

Way, way, way back in September I mentioned stumbling across an upcoming Harlequin SuperRomance with the intriguing title What The Librarian Did. Which begged the question - whatever did she do? Well now we know....

She did a guy with a badass tattoo!

And shaggy hair!

And ::drool:: those arms....

And ::oh my:: look at how he fills out those jeans....

What The Librarian Did by Karina Bliss, Harlequin SuperRomance, $5.50, ISBN 9780373716227, March 16, 2010.

Description:

Is Rachel Robinson the only one on campus who doesn't know who Devin Freedman is? No big deal except that the bad-boy rock star gets a kick out of Rachel's refusal to worship at his feet. And that seems to have provoked his undivided attention. Devin, the guy who gave new meaning to the phrase "sex, drugs and rock 'n' roll." Devin, the guy who somehow becomes wedged between her and the past she's kept hidden for years.

It's up to this librarian to find out firsthand just how "bad" he really is. Because her secret—and her growing feelings for a man who claims he's bent on redemption— depend on his turning out to be as good as he seems. Which is really, really good.

ZOMG! He's a frickin' rock star! This librarian is all sorts of kick ass. Despite the dopey-ass blue ribbon she's rockin' round her collar. I'll forgive the bun in her hair. Hell, half the time I have my hair pulled back at work because it's less irritating that way.

Tee Hee - and look at that tag line:

She's got a secret that's long overdue

Seriously, just try and hold me back from this one.

Something To Ponder

First things first. My apologies to all of you who subscribe to the RSS feed for my Upcoming Historical Romances wiki. I was at work, went in to update a few things using Internet Explorer, and ended up corrupting several images and links. There was no easier way to fix it than wiping out a crap-load of cover art and starting over from scratch. Which is why those of you using the RSS feed probably got about 5698 notifications that I had added content. I did add some new content, but the vast majority of my time was spent fixing stuff that got mucked up because IE blows donkey balls.

Anyway, yes - I recently did some updating to the wiki and spent some time last week tip-toeing through some databases scrounging up some upcoming historical romance releases. It was while I was looking for cowboys, Dukes and rakes that I came across this happy little gem, due out in March 2010:

• What The Librarian Did by Karina Bliss, Harlequin SuperRomance, $5.50, ISBN 9780373716227, March 16, 2010.

Longtime readers of this blog know that I'm a massive ho for the Harlequin SuperRomance line. Um, and unless the title of this blog hasn't clued you in, I'm also a librarian. So how awesome do I think this book sounds? Very! Hell, I don't even know what the damn thing is going to be about yet, but that title sounds like it's chock full of Harlequin-y goodness.

Which begs the question? What exactly did the librarian do? Something positively scandalous, no doubt. Maybe she had to break the news to some poor little orphan boy that Harry Potter isn't a real person? Or maybe she inadvertently allowed a book burning committee to meet in the library's community room? Ooooh, or maybe she banned Eric Carle and Maurice Sendak from her secret baby's book collection?

Heh, or maybe the librarian just refused to keep her mouth shut and started a blog.

Is it March yet?
