It’s December! Time to don your mittens and scarves, bundle up in your big winter coat, and crunch through the snow in your boots. Right? No? Well, that was what December meant for most of my life. I spent the majority of my years living in Illinois, with a decade in Pennsylvania thrown in there, […]
Author Newsletters & Reader Magnets & Free Books – Love them or Hate them?

Be Do Have–The Ultimate Lesson
by: Staci Stallings Many years ago I wrote an article for a blog called “Be Do Have.” It was about an insight I had recently had about life. In the article, I explained that most people in life get this backward. They believe that they need to have before they can do and they need […]

Hi everyone! Lee Tobin McClain here, to talk about old Harlequin novels, “the good parts” of Christian romances, and my new release, A Doctor’s Bond.
