Anna Kinser meets eight-year-old Emily three days into her job as the event
coordinator at a run-down Art Deco theater in Shiloh, Georgia.

Emily is bold, remarkably precocious, and she’s just redecorated
Anna’s office. On top of that, she’s decided that Anna should
ask her dad to be her boyfriend. Her dad. Nathan Roth. The gorgeous
construction guy from the auditorium.

Fortunately, he’s single, but he isn’t one to date—after
what happened to Anna’s boss’s sister, he hasn’t dated in
eight years. But Anna doesn’t let that stop her from pursuing him, and
soon, the two begin to fall in love.

What Anna doesn’t know is that Nathan is a very famous man—and
he’s in Shiloh for a very specific reason.

Plus, there’s something holding him back.

If he wants her—has feelings for her—why is he so
detached?

Lydia Ashburton is a NYU student who may have just met the love of her
life. But how do you keep up with a rock star? Between flutes of champagne
and flashy parties, Lydia feels like a fish out of water. He’s crazy
about her, and she feels closer to him with each date, but they come from
different worlds.

Can they make it last?

Life has a wild way of bringing people together.

For three strangers, a series of letters unites them.

Unearth the clues of this irresistibly whimsical romance.

Romantic Suspense

 

 

Date Published: August 16, 2021

Publisher: The Wild Rose Press

Software engineer Reid Lucas loves to cook and has a history of falling in love with married women. When he leaves his complicated past in Chicago for a job in California, he runs into trouble and must call a virtual stranger to bail him out of jail. Alyssa Knight, a tough street cop waiting for a church annulment from her passive-aggressive husband, is the roommate of the woman Reid calls for help, and she reluctantly provides bail for Reid. He falls for her immediately, and cooking for her is an act of love. She just wants to be friends, but they keep ending up in bed together. When his boss is murdered, Reid is a suspect—or is he the intended target?

Excerpt

She was knowing and affectionate and so pretty he couldn’t resist her. He put a hand on her knee and leaned in to kiss her. Her mouth was soft and willing, and he put down the coffee cup and took her face in both hands.

After a long, intense interval of suspended time, she pulled away and rested her forehead against his. “Oh, Reid,” she said—half disapproval, half sighing acquiescence. He stroked her breast, and her breathing quickened, and he slid a hand over her nylon-clad knee and under her skirt to find bare thigh. “Don’t,” she said.

He paused but didn’t withdraw his hand. “Is that no?” he asked.

She sighed. “Not yet,” she said, but she was warning him too, not to go too far, beyond the point of no return. Only it was hard to know where that was.

Love, Lies, and Grace Blitz

 

Love, Lies, and Grace cover

 

Christian Women’s Fiction

 

Date Published: 5/24/2021

Grace’s life is one most women will envy. She is married to a wealthy banker who is loving and passionate and showers her with expensive gifts, but there is only one catch: they live in different states. However, Grace’s faith in God, her two friends with whom she shares her home, and her pet Papillon fill the void while she and her husband are apart.

Grace’s friends, Pat and Milli, each has a heavy secret which they eventually reveal to Grace. Pat’s husband is dying in a nursing home, when she initially told Grace he was dead, and Milli, the health buff, who is trying to hide the fact that she has been diagnosed with cancer, is eventually forced to disclose it.

Without being judgmental, Grace cancels a vacation her husband had planned for her birthday in order to help her friends. Once the crises are over, she travels to New York to visit her husband and discovers that another woman is pregnant with his baby. As if this is not devastating enough, the woman makes a request that can change Grace’s life forever.

Reminiscent of the Golden Girls TV series, this provocative tale `shows how strangers can become friends, and friends can, literally, become family.

A house full of grief!

grandma

I just thought I would do a quick post. Saturday, I lost my Grandmother. She was the heart and soul of this family. We will have her funeral tomorrow @10 am. I can’ t seem to stop crying. When I think I am done, a memory, song, smell, picture or phrase will remind me that she is with the Angels. As I write this I am crying. I will forever love you Grandma, and you will never be forgotten.
