Happy Father’s Day! I know we have at least one man who reads here, and possibly others lurk. So it seems fitting to celebrate the dads out there. Are you doing anything to celebrate the dads in your life today? Winners this Week If you’re a winner, you should have received an email from the author […]
Five Years Deep and a Mile High (And #FreeBook)
I know it’s hyperbolic, but it does feel that way to me when it comes to the books I have yet to start or finish reading. Yes, my to-be-read pile is indeed five years (or more) deep and a mile (or more) high. For example, once upon a time I bought Book 1 by an […]
Introducing … His Secret Daughter (and a giveaway!)
Earlier this week, my new book released! Not just a new book. It’s a whole new series. In Big Apple Blessings, I move away from my trademark South Carolina Lowcountry locale to adventure in the most exciting city in the world — New York City! Three compelling stories, each featuring characters harboring dreams to make […]
Hero or Zero?
The title is a bit of a misnomer. I hope you’ll forgive me for that. What is a hero, anyway? Since I write romance novels, you would think this question is easy to answer. I suppose it could be broken down and analyzed by different genres, but, again, I write romance. There are even specific […]
A Man and His Mission and GIVEAWAY!
Today, I’m super excited to introduce ex-US Marine Sergeant Aaron Jamison of The Marine’s Mission, available in just a few days! Shannon Moore Redmon made me this lovely book trailer. Then I’m sharing the first scene. Enjoy! “You should probably know I don’t want to be here.” Those were the first words United […]
Black Moments: Love ‘Em or Hate ‘Em?
One thing I’ve learned from reading romance over the years is that every satisfying story must have a black moment. You know, the scene that inserts itself into a storyline right when things seem to be going well for the main characters, then leaves them wondering if they’ve lost their only shot at love. It’s […]
The One with No Kissing
My first romance novel contains no kissing. That poor couple never got to seal the dawning of their happily ever after with true love’s kiss. I didn’t set out to write a kiss-free book. In the back of my mind, I knew they’d probably have to have that moment, and I was working up to […]
Sunday Edition
Do you consider June part of spring or summer? This is an ongoing debate in our house. To me, June is summer. June, July, and August are the three summer months. Hubby is a solstice/equinox guy. So summer doesn’t “officially” begin until the 21st or 22nd of June. (He’s like that with winter, too, how […]
What is THE Best Disease?
I know, I know. That’s just wrong on two counts. This is a romance blog… and besides, how can any disease be THE best? They’re all THE worst! But there actually is a disease by that title, and it called my name. You can look up Best Disease here if you want more details, but […]
faith, hope, and love-part 3-#giveaway
Hi all! Happy Friday! And June has begun. The wedding month. Or it used to be. Summertime is fun time, right? And it’s the perfect month to talk about LOVE. Part three of my Faith, Hope, and Love Series. If you need to know anything about me it’s that I love love. I’ve always been […]
