Important Note for the Amazon/Kindle version of "His Virgin Babysitter"

Hi, all!

Yesterday I realized that Amazon's Kindle version of His Virgin Babysitter had errors in the formatting--the indents had been removed, running all the paragraphs together.  This was a product of Amazon's conversion, not the original file (which had been uploaded to Smashwords with great results). 

I later found out from an author friend that ePub files work better when uploading to Amazon.  So I uploaded my ePub version to Amazon, and it has now gone live.  My apologies to those who were inconvenienced by the error.

If you downloaded the original Amazon version and want the new version, then contact Amazon and tell them you want to delete the old version and download the NEW version.  Unfortunately, that's the way Amazon does it--otherwise, you'll just be re-downloading the old version.  If they didn't do it that way, if you accidentally deleted the original version of a book, and didn't want the new version, it would be too late, and the old version would be gone.  So yeah, you have to call Amazon.  Sorry about that. 

However, you might want to wait a day or two before calling Amazon.  I found some typos in the original version as well (those mistakes were all mine) and I plan to upload a corrected version very soon.  (These mistakes were in all versions, so the typo-corrected version will be uploaded to all retailers.)  I will announce that here when I do (I'll edit the title of this blog post to say "UPDATED").  

The good news is, once you have the corrected Amazon kindle version, you'll have a much smoother read!  All the Kindle versions of His Virgin Babysitter from sites other than Amazon should be normal, with proper paragraph indentations.  If you notice any major formatting errors like this in the future, please feel free to contact me via comments on this blog, or the email address I provide at the beginning and end of my books.

Also, I'd like to thank the reader that left me a 5 Star Reader rating and a 5 Lips Sensuality rating for His Virgin Babysitter on AllRomanceEbooks.com.  I thought it would take weeks to get my first rating/review, and to get one (and 5 Stars!) on the first day  I uploaded it was awesome, and humbling. 

The 5 Lips sensuality rating had me wondering--should I have rated the heat level at five flames?  I put 4 flames, because it's plain heterosexual sex, no BDSM or anything wild--super steamy, erotic, and sizzling hot, yes, but not what I'd call "wild."  So is His Virgin Babysitter steamy enough for five flames?  Obviously at least one reader must think so...what do the rest of you readers think?   Leave a comment, I'm dying to know!  [Edit:  I chose to go up to five flames--it sounded right.  But I'd still like to know if you think I made the right choice or not.]
