I mentioned a few months ago that I was working on another book from the Rainbow Falls series. (See that post here.) Today I’m giving you a teeny, tiny sneak peek at the main characters’ first meeting. These two are developing into an interesting pair with their fair share of differences. Despite their not-so-auspicious first […]
The Quick Proposal + Giveaway
If you’re a parent, have you experienced a moment where your kids remind you of your past choices? Humbling, isn’t it? Last month we were in Upstate NY visiting family and our son brought his girlfriend with him so she could meet his grandmother and see the hills of Upstate NY that we don’t really […]
A Day in the Life of Axel…and a #Giveaway
I don’t know about you, but animals are a huge part of my life. My husband and I live on a mini-farm we’ve named Manners Manor. We have a dog, two cats, chickens, an aquarium full of fish, and a stocked pond. I thought it would be fun to step inside my dog Axel’s mind […]
When the Book Won’t Write #giveaway
Confession: I’ve been pedaling as fast as I can on a stationary bike for a long time now. Barely keeping my head above water with a multitude of life tasks, a family health scare, and raising a teenage boy. Last spring, our son went to Junior prom with his lovely girlfriend, which means this year, […]
Inspy Romance Across the USA + #giveaway
According to AAA, they estimate four out of ten Americans will travel for a family vacation this summer. Although we don’t have a specific vacation this year as opposed to our Branson destination last year, we’ve certainly added miles on our vehicles visiting family and enjoying summer outings. I started thinking as the Arduini family […]
When Life is Normal + a #Giveaway
Not every day can be an adventure. We don’t often get to live the fairy tale Sunday through Saturday, daily getting swept off our feet by Prince Charming. Granted, we may have our own personal Prince Charming, but chances are, he’s not always charming. Just like anyone else, he has good days and bad days, […]
Let’s Talk About Street Teams Plus #Giveaway
Where would we be without the support of our readers? It humbles me that some of our readers not only read our books but go extra mile by writing reviews, spreading the word, creating beautiful memes for our books, and simply encouraging us. It truly means a lot to us, and my heartfelt thanks to […]
Let’s Talk About Newsletters Plus #Giveaway
If you thought “Ah, this is going to be another post where Alexa is going to ask for our input,” you’re right. As an author, I value my newsletter subscribers so much. The space in your inbox is valuable and you probably receive many emails every day, including newsletters from different authors. So I’d love […]
New Chapter and a Giveaway by Deb Kastner
With Her Forgotten Cowboy, my September release from Harlequin Love Inspired, I’ll be saying goodbye to a fictional Texas town, Serendipity, which I’ve inhabited through three miniseries and a novella for a total of 17 books. Naturally, I’m feeling bittersweet. I know this town and its people intimately, especially the boisterous old redhead Jo Spencer, […]
Perfect Love in an Imperfect World
You know that verse, “for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God” (Romans 3:23)? Man, it’s so easy to get stuck on those middle two words “fall short,” isn’t it? Especially if you’re a recovering perfectionist like me. Failing and falling short are hard to come to terms with when you’re […]
