The revisions for Where Shadows Dance landed in my editor’s inbox on Tuesday evening at 6:35pm New York time. The next day, I received a call from my agent saying, “They’re offering us a contract for two more books.”
At which point, I went, “Huh? But… But… I haven’t sent them a proposal yet!”
I’ve been in this business a while—when Babylon and Shadows come out I will have published sixteen books—but this is the first time anyone has offered me a contract without seeing at least a couple of chapters and a synopsis. Considering how close this series came to ending at Number Five, it's pretty amazing. In case you can’t tell, I’m just a tad excited about it.
At any rate, I can now announce that there will definitely be a Book Seven and a Book Eight in the Sebastian St. Cyr series.

Oh, YAY! Congrats, Candy-- what a wonderful feeling that must be! (And EEP, nearly ending at Book Five? Wow, I suspect we would have been demanding you give us closure via the blog, at least! *g*)
And what an absolute treat to have the contract offered without even having submitted a proposal (no... no pressure there at ALL...)
So glad that Sebastian's adventures will be continuing.
Well done - fabulous news!

HOOORAY!! That's fabulous news. Congrats on making Sebastian such a byword in Romance that you got a contract on his name (and sales) alone.
Hurrah!!! Congratulations!! And a happy dance from all of your (and Sebastian's) fans! (This is probably the best news I've heard all day, purely from a selfish point of view in that I really really really wanna read as much Sebastian as possible!)
Congratulations, Candy! And yay for us, too - more Sebastian is ALWAYS something to cheer about! :-)
Congratulations! More Sebastian, more Hero ... this is amazing news, due of course to your exceptional storytelling!
Great news! Congrats!
Very cool -- for me, since I get to read them. Also cool for you. This is great news.
Great news! I'm glad to hear it. I'm really enjoying the series, although I still have a couple of the books to go.
Woo-Hoo!! So gratifying to have your writing skills acknowledged! Great news for me that there are now 3 Sebastian books in the pipeline.
Between Sam's military launching and this contract you have ample motivation to celebrate!
YEAH!!!!! Absolutely fabulous! Congratulations. Looking forward to reading more Sebastian and Hero; keep 'em coming. Sabena
WHEEEEEEE!!!!! :-D
Perhaps your publisher reads my comments and is aware of my breakout prophecy for you...
yay! congrats! can't wait to read them.
So glad to hear this, congratulations, Candy!
Hurrah, hurray, callou, callay! Fabulous news. I'm delighted for you. Your increasing legions of readers will be thrilled at the prospect of more Sebastian.
Congrats Candy! On the contract AND on having been offered it without the synopsis requirement! I'm so thrilled!
Congratulations. It must take some pressure off of you to have a contract already.
As you plot out the next two books, I'll put in a plug for more Sebastian & Kat. I know some like Hero, but I think she may need a beta hero.
Where Shadows Dance is now available for preorder from Amazon for next March. I ordered mine this evening.
Félicitations! Brava!
However...The series was about to end in number 5?!!! I am a a little traumatized to know this, even though it is no longer true.
Thanks, everyone!
And sorry I traumatized a few people with the revelation that Book Six almost didn't happen.
Just as Steve Malley predicted...you're on your way, Candy.
Congratulations are in order I believe!
Thank heavens for this bit of news! It would be too too ghastly to think the story is to end soon!!

Sebastain and Hero?? How about Hero and Gibson??!! Kat is the love of Sebastain's life! Please tell me they end up together, even if it takes to book 15 for it to happen.
Sebastian & Hero! Yay for more of them!!!! Team HERO!!!! Totally making a shirt now. lol
I'm beyond excited about this. I probably would have cried if the series ended at book 5.

that makes me so happy, you have no idea. :) i've read all the books during the last three weeks and i'm addicted.
i hope sebastian gets to marry hero and raise his child with her... but only if she lets him see kat ;)
Awesome news! Congratulations. :)
