Thursday’s Thoughts and a giveaway
July 5, 2012 | Filed under: Stuff
Update: Randomly drawn winners are #34, 68 and 142. Email me!
Original Post:
First, I love each and every one of you. Why? Because AT LAST made the New York Times bestseller list yesterday — the print list, the digital list, AND the combined list. Also I made the USA Today bestseller list!
You are all awesome, and also you look beautiful today.
Two more things before I go. Here’s a pic of me doing a panel at ALA in Anaheim (American Library Association). I was with Susan Mallery and Tessa Dare. My first big panel, and my speech is a complete blur now but I survived!!

And last but not least, what are you all reading? Just for the heck of it, I’m giving away a copy of FOREVER AND A DAY to a commenter, so be sure to leave one.







































Jillian says:
Congratulations Jill! You deserve being on the bestseller list. I had a blast reading AT LAST. Im reading EL James Fifty Shades of Grey right now. Hot!
Posted on July 5th, 2012 at 5:55 amMarcieR says:
Even your fellow panelists are intrigued with what you’re saying. How cool is that!
Today is the day my mailman Joe delivers my Amazon order. And guess what’s in it? AT LAST!!
Until then I am reading a Harlequin Superromance called Party of Three (it was pubbed in 2006).
Posted on July 5th, 2012 at 5:56 amJulie says:
Congratulations! I really loved At Last. But now I don’t have anything to read.
Posted on July 5th, 2012 at 5:57 amRachel S says:
I’m going to try something new – but completely honest and truthful :innocent: – to see if I can win a prize.
You look pretty in the pic above.
And like you’re having fun, too!
As for what I’m reading – I’m re-reading Slow Heat, one of my ALL-TIME faves
Posted on July 5th, 2012 at 5:58 amClaudiaGC says:
I’m reading Lucky in Love right now! But not for much longer, I’m afraid, because I’m inhaling this book! Finished way to fast.
Posted on July 5th, 2012 at 5:59 amRachel says:
I just finished JR Ward/Jessica Bird’s Leaping Hearts, which I loved, now I’m onto Rachel Gibson’s Rescue Me. All these cause I’m done wih At Last and while I’m waiting for my next Jill fix.
Posted on July 5th, 2012 at 6:01 amHelene says:
I just finished At Last (wonderful!) and am currently reading Pamela Clare’s Untamed.
Can’t wait for Forever and a Day to come out. I’m planning on doing a re-read of all of the Lucky Harbour books before then
Posted on July 5th, 2012 at 6:02 amEmily says:
Congratulations!! That’s quite the achievement!
I’m reading “Heir of the Dog” by Judi McCoy. I just started the series yesterday with “Hounding the Pavement.” It’s a mystery series involving small dogs. I love mysteries; I don’t like small dogs. We’ll see how into it I get.
Posted on July 5th, 2012 at 6:04 amMaryAnne says:
Finished reading AT LAST on Tuesday and it was wonderful. The romance was great and your secondary characters are filled with quirky silliness.
Posted on July 5th, 2012 at 6:04 amI’m now ready the JUDY COLLINS books by Lori Armstrong. I read her MERCY books and they are very good.
So glad your library panel speech went well – you don’t look nervous at all and your fellow writers look very interested.
Jennifer M says:
Congratulations on the NY Times bestseller list!! I’m going to read Explosive Eighteen by Janet Evanovich.
Posted on July 5th, 2012 at 6:04 amkaryn gardner says:
Good Morning and Congratulations! You being on those lists is very well deserved!!! I am now an official Jill Shalvis reader even though my mom and I swore we couldn’t juggle one more author. Still trying to get a few back copies, guess I’ll be ordering on Amazon soon or my books are going to stack up because I’m a stickler to reading series in the right order! Right now I’m finishing Debbie Macomber’s “The Unexpected Husband” which is a re-release of two of her older books I hadn’t read yet. Next is Lucky Harbor. I have Lucky In Live, but really can’t bring myself to read it until I find Head Over Heels to catch up!!! Anyway, congratulations again and I love all if your ‘office’ view posts because I just live in Sacramento area and we love our little vacations to your neck of the woods…can’t wait for a Northern California Book Signing!
Posted on July 5th, 2012 at 6:08 amSandi in OH says:
Congratulations!!! I was only too happy to help you reach the bestselling lists. I’ve finished your last book, Susan’s last book, Rachel Gibson’s last book, and Robyn Carr’s last book in the last week. I am currently between books and have no idea what to start now.

Congrats on making the NYT & USA Today bestseller lists! I love, love, love Lucky Harbour (an auto-buy for me, which says a lot coming from a consummate romantic suspense reader!), and AT LAST is probably my favourite Lucky Harbour novel & one of my favourite contemporaries ever!
I’m currently on a mad Lora Leigh binge, attempting to read both the Tempting SEALs & Elite Ops series before my library loan expires. Just about to start the second-to-last one (RENEGADE, of Elite Ops). Might need a bit of a break after that, haha.
Posted on July 5th, 2012 at 6:29 amMJ says:
I just started Can’t Buy Me Love by Molly O’Keefe last night and it is SO GOOD! So. Good. Clever writing, great characters…I want to take the day off and just read.

Posted on July 5th, 2012 at 6:47 amMJ says:
Also, congratulations on the NYT list! I read The Sweetest Thing on the plane home from Seattle last week and cried and laughed. Guy beside me must have thought I was nuts!
Posted on July 5th, 2012 at 6:47 amDee B. says:

Hi Jill,
congratulations for the huge success of “At Last”.
My copy arrived just today and I will start reading it as soon as I am home. Can´t wait.
Oh and one question:
Living in Germany – I only can get your books in print and they always late ,which I hate. Can you perhaps wave your magic wand and then they will be available on kindle in Germany? That would be great.
I love your blg. It always makes my day!!!!!!!
Posted on July 5th, 2012 at 7:55 amTammy M. says:
Well after finishing At Last, I was scrambling for something to read. I am not patiently waiting for Forever And A Day.

Not sure what’s next on my hit list (have to figure out where I put my Nook last night when I came home) but I’m thinking of going outside and doing some reading right now. (a rare day off where I get to nothing I don’t want to do but pick hubby up from work later)

Congratulations on being on the best sellers lists. It is well deserved.
I just picked up At Last on Tuesday so maybe that will help keep you there. Sadly I have to wait a bit to read it as I have some library books with a due date!!
I finished reading More Than Words, Volume 7 with a novella by Jill Shalvis! I love those books. Right now I am reading a Blaze for a quick read after reading a interesting book called Unorthodox, The Scandalous Rejection of My Hasidic Roots by Deborah Feldman. It was an eye opener into what a restrictive, isolated life that is. Certainly not for me. This was one of my library books.

CONGRATULATIONS! I’m so excited for you.
I actually re-read Lucky in Love for the fifth time, biding my time until I can read about Dr. Josh and Grace. for something different, I’ve just started reading Ravishing the Heiress by Sherry Thomas.
You look beautiful up there, so does Tessa and Susan. You guys are all awesome, and I hope someday to meet you (I really hope I can make that one-day trip to Anaheim!)

Jill, A big congrats on your selling #s (I’ve contributed in a small way to them)! I’m always entertained by the humor & relationships in your books. A good sense of humor is missing in so many Contemps.
I just finished reading a captivating romance “Carolina Home”, written by Virginia Kantra, #1 in her Dare Island Novels. A lovely relationship story, but, also, very in-depth interactions between members of their families. I loved & have all of Kantra’s SIMs, & am so happy she’s writing a Contemp after quite a few Paranormals.

Loved At Last!! I am currently working my way through all of Pamela Clare’s I-Team series. I was up til 1:30 am reading Unlawful Contact last night!!
Posted on July 6th, 2012 at 12:14 pmAmanda says:
Trying to wait patiently for Forever and a Day!! Can’t wait even though Lucky Harbor will be over… that just means you’ll introduce us to a whole new world I hope! Hope it’ll be another family series!
Currently re-reading Maya Banks, McCabe Trilogy! Would recommend to anyone who likes Highlanders set back in earlier times…did I mention the romance and each was better than the last!
Posted on July 6th, 2012 at 12:17 pmCarrie says:
I’m just now getting to read At Last (just now, as it’s been out soooo long), but I’m eagerly awaiting Forever and a Day!
Posted on July 6th, 2012 at 1:01 pmMichelle Harlan says:
Congrats on your bestseller success! I can’t wait to read Forever and a Day! You are one of the few authors whose books I will read in 1 sitting! Thank you for the “escape”!
Posted on July 6th, 2012 at 1:17 pmWendy says:
Congrats!

i can’t wait to get my hands on it!! finished At Last the day it came out…..currently listening to The Sweetest Thing on audiobook!
Posted on July 6th, 2012 at 1:32 pmJen C says:
First of all, we love you too.
I’m reading Fifty Shades Darker (again) and anxiously awaiting Forever and a Day even though it means the last of the Chocoholics (when does your next book come out?).
Posted on July 6th, 2012 at 2:05 pmStephanieJS says:
Congrats, Jill!!! That fabulous to make both lists.
I’m reading Just Like That by Erin Nicholas and then I’m starting Worth the Risk by Karen Erickson.
Posted on July 6th, 2012 at 2:30 pmAlexa J says:
I’m reading the latest Sophie Kinsella book and am enjoying it.
Posted on July 6th, 2012 at 2:38 pmTracey McMillen says:
Well, I personally think ALL of your books should be on any and all best seller lists because they are among the best reads out there. Who can top strong, funny heroines coupled with hot, sexy and beautifully flawed heroes? Not anyone with any good sense, that’s for sure.
Anyway, congrats. You definitely deserve it!
Posted on July 6th, 2012 at 3:02 pmClaudia says:
Congratulations
You deserve it
I’m currently reading Almost Perfect by Susan Mallery.
Posted on July 6th, 2012 at 3:04 pmTracey McMillen says:
Oh, forgot what I’m reading! I just finished your book so I’m now starting the latest Christine Feehan book in the Game series that came out Tuesday.
Posted on July 6th, 2012 at 3:08 pmRosie says:
Congratulations on all the lists! I am currently reading through a bunch of peer-reviewed scientific literature, primarily ecological, but also some pharmacological and medical. I’m also reading a couple of books that I have or will be assigning, in whole or in part, to my students this summer; they are both science-focused. In other words, I’m not reading a great romance novel . . .
Posted on July 6th, 2012 at 3:23 pmBrandy Bosquez says:
Just finished Rescue ME by Rachel Gibson, and on to At Last. I am trying to read slowly, but having a hard time. I love love love Matt. I cant say it enough and have on several other posts

What am I reading- the newest by Loretta chase- scandal wears satin.
Posted on July 6th, 2012 at 9:02 pmI’d love to get your latest-At Last. My sister has been feeding my crack addiction (your books) but she’s cut me off cuz her hubby cut her off (she’s over spent her monthly book allowance ). So please please let me win a copy. ;D
Rita Spratlen says:
Would love to get my hands on your book!! Thanks for the chance. Thanks for sharing! Congratulations!!! Rita

Congrats on making the best seller lists–you are a terrific author.
I currently have 3 books I’m working on: George R. R. Martin’s A Storm of Swords Part 1–Steel and Snow (I got hooked on HBO’s Game of Thrones and missed the books when they were first released-I blame sleep deprivation from having young children at the time); Susan Mallery’s Summer Nights (just started this, but have been looking forward to it for non-frumpy librarian Annabelle-yes, we really do exist!); and Chloe Neill’s Some Girls Bite (book 1 of the Chicagoland Vampires series–I know nothing about this series, but it looked interesting so I checked it out from the library via Overdrive). I finished At Last on Wednesday–loved it and am eagerly awaiting the release of Forever and a Day.
Posted on July 7th, 2012 at 4:33 pmJill A says:
Congrats on your MAJOR accomplishment!!! I’m reading the “Richmond Rogues” series by Kate Angell; love those baseball boys! 😉😉

Can’t wait to met you at RWA. I’m reading The Doctor Wears a Stetson, by Anne Marie Novark. I much rather be reading At Last or a book by Robyn Carr or Susan Mallery, but I exceeded by book purchase limit for two months.
