I’m okay! But imagine my surprise…We had no clue Hurricane Irma went directly over our gated community in Bonita Springs until it was in the NYT today. Naturally, the path of the storm must have been reported everywhere, but we just got power back at 3:45am this morning, so we’ve virtually been in a media blackout/intermittent cell service for days.
My husband, 2 Pomeranians and I boarded up our home and bunked with romance writer, (C. F. Francis) and her husband in a home he manages in Lehigh Acres, the highest elevation in SWFL. The eye of Irma passed over there as well! The whole day was definitely a terrifying ordeal, but we all made it without any structural damage or storm surge to that house or both of our own. I’ve posted pictures and videos on my Facebook pages.
When the power went back on this morning, I was up anyway, reading a novel by flashlight. Guess what I immediately did? Yep, cranked up my coffee machine for the first time in three days!
I’m fine, and I am so grateful for all the thoughts, texts and well wishes! I’m also very aware of those who did not fare well, in both SWFL and my hometown of 20 years, Houston.
Please don’t forget: the rest of this week I am participating in donating all proceeds of my Damaged Heroes series to Hurricane Harvey Relief. The page below will take you to the list of all donating authors and their books:
From Sept 4th to 17th, these authors have pledged to donate ALL royalties to Houston Harvey Relief.
As most of you know, Houston was my home for 20 years and it’s been horrifying and helpless to see familiar neighborhoods ravaged under so much water. I’m still a member of two Romance Writers of America chapters there, and am happy to report everyone except one member made it through with minimal damage. Sadly, the one member lost 95% of everything she owns and our chapter has kicked into high gear to help her and the city.
In that spirit Carrie Pulkinen established this page for readers to buy books from authors willing to donate all royalties to Houston charities these next two weeks. Please take a look at the books up for sale, including Tall, Dark and Damaged and Capturing the Queen. We appreciate all purchases, shares and retweets. Happy reading!
Wow, 99 cents! What else can you buy for less than a dollar? That’s right, I’ve slashed the price for digital copies of Capturing the Queen, my Damaged Heroes, Book Two. Hope you buy your copy today! Sale ends on Labor Day, so please pass the word!
My Amazon reviews have been stellar:
I’m thrilled readers love this story of a Beauty and a Geek ensnared in black market artifact smuggling and lone wolf terrorism in the heart of Chicago.
Here is an excerpt or watch the trailer:
Thank you to everyone who emailed me after watching the live streamed RWA RITA Awards! The talented Elizabeth Naughton won the romantic suspense award, but just seeing my name and Tall, Dark and Damaged on the Jumbo-tron gave me goosebumps! Another highlight was being greeted by other romance writers with, “Oh my gosh, are you Sarah Andre?” Wow! A glimpse of what it’s like to be famous!
If you haven’t had a chance to pick up this modern-day Gothic romantic suspense, this is your chance! It’s Book One in my Damaged Heroes series. And after a tremendous launch of Book Two, Capturing the Queen in June and that fabulous week in Orlando, I have officially begun the next novel!
