1.  What is  the title of the Christmas anthology Liberty Blake contributed to? 
 
2.  On Amazon, which reviewer said this about Jerri Hine’s Ruse of Love (Winds of Betrayal): A beautifully written story about a young girl's first love, the wages of war that tear her from her safe life and compel her to be strong and to find herself. The prose is wonderfully accurate to the Revolutionary War, the descriptions of the clothing, homes, and scenery are lovely. I felt I was there! A perfect book for history buffs as well as romance lovers. Great writing, Ms. Hines!

4.  The following is a description of which one of Blanch Marriott’s romances:
David Rutland has spent a lifetime covering for his errant twin brother and making things right. No more. Time for the irresponsible womanizer to grow up and face the music. But David isn't prepared for his world to be rocked when he meets the beautiful redhead who mistakes him for his missing brother. David doesn't know what's worse, deceiving his brother or deceiving this woman he's waited his entire life to find.

5.  When did Bella Andre sell her first book? (Hint: Answer in the about the author section of her FREE book on Amazon)
 
6.  On the Amazon website, if you type in the word romance – which book is listed first?
 
7.  In Arabic, what does Ya’aburnee mean? (Hint: http://matadornetwork.com/abroad/20-awesomely-untranslatable-words-from-around-the-world/)
 
8.  In Forbes 2012 list (http://www.therichest.org/celebnetworth/lists/rich/self-made-women-billionaires/) the richest self-made woman in the world is from which country?

9.  Which real Sheikh said,­­­­ "Education is like a lantern which lights your way in a dark alley” and led his nation during an era that saw the UAE transform itself from a small cluster of emirates to one of the most modern countries in the world. (Hint: http://chronicle.com/campusViewpoint/Higher-Colleges-of-Technology/35/ )

10.  When is my next romance, Saving the Sheikh, due to be released?  (just the month and year is sufficient)
