New for the New Year!
Hi all,
I have a few things to announce. First of all, I have a new release, Imperfect Judgment, a Torrid Tarot card novel from Ellora's Cave.
Imperfect Judgment is a futuristic, set during a time that I foresee will be full of people leaving Earth to colonize the universe. In this case the planet Gallia is colonized by two sets of people about a hundred years apart.
In addition I have three new novels in print: Tasting Nightwalker Wine Rogues Holiday Reflections
Cheers, Janet Miller/Cricket Starr

Ellora's Cavemen: Dreams Of The Oasis III won the CAPA!
The Romance Studio has given Ellora's Cavemen Dreams of the Oasis III their Cupid and Psyche Award (CAPA) for best 2005 erotic anthology.
This has my short story Pleasuremaid, a futuristic story about a woman who wakes up in a nobleman's garden without her memory. All Dina knows is that she wishes to help Gall in any way she can but when she remembers who she is that information just might separate them for all time.
My Ellora's Cave quickie Memories Revised by Cricket Starr has been released from Ellora's Cave. This is a companion to my award winning story Memories To Come, about a warrior trapped and dying in a prison cell, learning from the goddess Gillian what he missed by fighting instead of pursuing love with a village woman he once saved.
What would have happened if Talia had invited the handsome stranger who rescued her from his fellow soldiers to come home with her that evening? Would she have been able to give him an excuse to return to her once his soldiering was done? And how did she manage to rescue him from certain death in a prison cell after all that time?
Romantic Times Reviewers Choice Award nominee - Times TWO!
Okay... this is cool. The two books I got Romantic Times Top Picks for in 2006 are now also nominees for the 2006 Romantic Times Bookclub Reviewers Choice Award! I've put together a nice little rotating banner for them as you can see.
Beloved Enemy by Janet Miller in the category Best Small Press 2006 Small Press Paranormal Contemporary/Fantasy/Futuristic.
So both sides of my split writing personality as well as two of my publishing houses are nominated for awards.
Wow, this is so frick'n cool. I'm grinning ear to ear.
Cheers, Janet/Cricket

Memories Revised cover!
I just got the cover for my Ellora's Cave quickie Memories Revised by Cricket Starr. This is a sequel to the award winning story Memories To Come, about a warrior trapped and dying in a prison cell, learning from the goddess Gillian what he missed by fighting instead of pursuing love with a village woman he once saved.
In the sequel we see the story from the woman's point of view. Talia asks the goddess for help in choosing between two suitors but neither is a man she feels passion for. The goddess reminds her of the one time she did desire a man...when Remak saved her. In a dream she learns more about the mysterious warrior...but will this be enough to lead her to find him?
You can read more here: Memories Revised. The story is scheduled to be released on January 24th. I love how beautiful this cover is and think it matches the mood of my story so well.
