I think we should turn that blurb into one of unadulterated horror!

Then Greg will HAVE to rewrite the entire book as a horror novel!

I'll even buy it!

Yeah, yeah, have fun while I'm suffering trying to get this right!

We might want to be careful. Gregg might put us in the book.
Seventeen-year old beachcomber Cinisajoy is stoked when billionaire psychopath Dr. Drib hires her as a nanny for the summer. To her, it's the perfect summer job--the kind that will look good on her college applications. (Especially since she plans on majoring in psychology.)

But she was wrong. Dr. Drib incessantly tortures her by telling her weird jokes and he doesn't even have a baby.

To make the plot work Cinisajoy grabs someone else's baby and now she's on the run. With no one to tell jokes to, Dr. Drib dispatches a crack team of Navy SEALS to bring Cin back, while through it all Gregg Bell is ensnared in their web of lies, deception, and all-around weirdness.

Yeah, that would be a problem. Hmm. Let me think about it.

So is the book finished?
If you ever get a decent blurb.

The book's done, Cin, and I'm 96.4% satisfied with the blurb. I still want to proof up another novel I'm doing so I can put the blurb and cover of Saving Baby in the backmatter of it and the new book in the backmatter of Saving Baby. And I need to polish up the blurb for the new book and come up with a cover so it will be a little while.
