Marry Me by Kristin Wallace #SweetRomance #MustRead @KWallaceAuthor



Julia Richardson is no fan of marriage. A lifetime of watching her parents treat relationships like the flavor-of-the-month has taught her that love is for fools and faith is for the naïve. Only one thing deserves her dedication and faith—her career.

But suddenly her life is thrown into a tailspin. She loses her job. Then her pregnant stepsister calls her in a panic. The crisis has Julia returning to the small Southern town—and the family—she's been avoiding for years. Before she knows it, Julia is pressed into service running her stepsister’s wedding planning business.

Julia doesn’t know a garter from a garden hose, but now she must navigate couples along the bumpy path down the aisle, despite wardrobe malfunctions, killer bees, and plenty of near disasters. In the midst of it all, one man keeps a cool head and it's none other than the widowed local minister Seth Graham. Julia’s been running from love and everything spiritual for most of her life. If she can find the courage to stop running, Seth could help her learn to trust in the power of love, faith, and family, and Julia just might finds her very own “I Do” moment.

What readers are saying:

"A truly fantastic debut from a highly talented author!"

"… a beautifully written, heart-warming story."

"… a great read. I laughed and cried at the characters and all of the real life drama that went on. I loved the fact that even in the midst of everything there was a strong but subtle message of God's unconditional love."

Where Her Heart Is by @MagdalenaScott #SweetRomance #MustRead

 From the Ladies of Legend Series

Betsy McClain left Legend, Tennessee two years ago, with a broken heart, a baby to care for, and precious little else. She’s done well in the city, and so has daughter LizBeth Ann. A heartfelt request from Dorothy McClain is the only thing that could bring them back to Legend, even temporarily.

Mike McClain wants to get to know his only child, but Betsy isn’t cutting him any slack. Good looks and the old McClain charm seem to be failing him. Betsy is not the same love-struck girl he married, nor the girl who left Legend in a flurry of anger and tears. But he’s changed too. Can’t she see that?

Mike is renovating the house where Betsy and LizBeth Ann are staying. Everyone in Legend would like to see them get back together. The only thing standing in the way is Betsy’s stubbornness…or is it Mike’s?

What readers are saying:

"This is a great read that takes you on a heartfelt journey."

"Loved the Ladies of Legend Series. Very well written… can't wait to read the next book!"

Reclaiming Home by @MilouKoenings #SweetRomance #MustRead



Ella Martin’s always done what she should. But has she lost touch with what she wants?

When she gets the call that her father and stepmother have been injured in a freak accident, coming home to Green Pines to take care of them isn’t really what she’d planned. She’s spent her life getting away from small-town Green Pines. If ever there was a dying community in need of Ella’s expertise in neighborhood revitalization, though, this is it.

She’s willing to give a shot at saving Green Pines, but things get complicated when billionaire real-estate developer Covington Black moves in up the road. Sure, she’s got a crush on him – who wouldn’t? But he’s just taken out an injunction to keep her from picketing his construction sites, so when he starts romancing her, he must be up to something. Whatever game he’s playing, she knows he’s only going to break her heart.

Covington Black knows what he wants. He’s seeking solace in the only place he’s ever been truly happy – his grandfather’s farm in Green Pines. He’s got big plans for the place and he’s looking for a partner to share his dreams with. He wants to believe Ella’s the one, and yet it seems like falling for her is the one thing he shouldn’t have done.

A tender tale that hits the sweet spot at the intersection of family, community and the love of your life.

What readers are saying:

"…a great read. Ms. Koenings is a gifted author."

"This book has a lot of things I like in a love story: action, fight for things you believe in, travel and nature."

"It was fun getting to know the characters in this book, their struggles to understand each other, and resolving their differences. I look forward to reading more books by Milou Koenings."

His Captive by Diana Cosby #Historical @DianaCosby

"A sexy new voice in historical romance." 
~Sandra Hill, USA Today Bestselling Author
 
Strangers
With a wastrel brother and a treacherous former fiancé, Lady Nichola Westcott hardly expects the dangerously seductive Scot who kidnaps her to be a man of his word. Though Sir Alexander MacGruder promises not to hurt her, Nichola's only value is as a pawn to be ransomed.


Enemies
Alexander's goal is to avenge his father's murder, not to become entangled with the enemy. But his desire to keep Nichola with him, in his home--in his bed--unwittingly make her a target for those who have no qualms about shedding English blood.

Lovers
Now Nichola is trapped--by her powerful attraction to a man whose touch shakes her to the core. Unwilling and unable to resist each other, can Nichola and Alexander save a love that has enslaved them both?

Reviews:

"Cosby delivers a medieval battle-of-wills romance designed (for) those who enjoy good repartee, 13th-century backdrop...and sensuality."  ~Romantic Times Magazine

"Finally! At last! A bold, lusty Medieval! Diana Cosby is superbly talented. HIS CAPTIVE is the beginning of a wonderful career." ~New York Times Bestselling author Cathy Maxwell

"Reading His Captive, I'm distinctly taken back to reading Voyager, my first Diana Gabaldon!" ~Kim Castillo

"Charming, entertaining and romantic, Diana Cosby's debut novel, HIS CAPTIVE, transports you to the rugged bens and glens of medieval Scotland, captures your heart, and leaves you sighing for more wonderful tales from this bright new voice in historical romance." ~Award-winning author Laurin Wittig

The Gifts by Linda S. Prather #Paranormal #Thriller @JacodyPress

A Supernatural Thriller


Tortured. . . raped. . . executed. . .

No matter how much he drank, Gavin McAllister couldn't get the headline out of his head. Just words. He was a writer, made his living with words. The impact of the words directly correlated to the emotions of the reader. Words could be twisted, knives to open up wounds long hidden. Maneuvered to evoke buried nightmares. Bare the soul, expose the wound, and you had a best seller. Make them laugh. Make them cry. Above all, make them feel something. He was an expert at manipulating words for emotion.

But he'd seen the body.

It wasn't a story this time. This time it was personal. The demon of his nightmares had no name, but now he knew where to look for him. Glade Springs had secrets. And no one uncovered secrets better than Jacody Ives.

What reviewers are saying:

"The Gifts is a supernatural mystery thriller...it was a fun ride, and the suspense kept me wanting to know what happened next."

"I highly recommend this book. I rarely give a book 5 stars, but this one was well…and I really hated to put it down."

"Right from the very first page I was hooked by this story. An excellent supernatural thriller. The suspenseful story revolves around Gavin McAllister who has to use his psychic abilities/dreams to save a girl and her mother."

At The Cafe by @MishaCrews #Mystery #AmReading

Seven Tales of Love and Mystery

A soda spilled, a notebook drenched, a job ruined: so why was this the best day of Amanda's life? A water bed, an alarm clock, and two red nipple light bulbs: had Gary really figured out a way to kill his wife and not get caught? An impatient man and a woman who's never on time: would the cafe where they met be the place where they said goodbye forever? These and other questions will be answered in this collection of short stories. Sometimes romantic, occasionally spooky, always fun!

What one reader had to say:

"All the stories were very interesting and enjoyable. Since her first novel, Homesong, I have been reading everything Ms. Crews writes. She is a very talented writer. I can't wait for her next novel."

About this author: Raised in a family of book lovers, Misha's mother first encouraged her to read by offering to pay her two cents per page of 'Hop on Pop,' by Dr. Seuss. At first Misha was happy just to be raking in the cash, but before long she traded the pennies for the riches of the written word, and since that time she's seldom been seen without a book in her hand, in front of her nose, or at the very least in her purse!

Misha is married and is currently living and working in
Northern Virginia. She welcomes messages about writing, reading, workshops, ice cream, antique typewriters, stuff that make you laugh, etc., and can be contacted via her website: http://www.MishaCrews.com

Love Letters, Inc. by @EC_Sheedy #Romance #MustRead

Wrong Address... Right Guy

Rosie O'Hanlon wants kids. Lots of kids. And she wants a man who'll value home, hearth, and a horde of happy children as much as she does. But, hey, this is the 21st century, full-throttle motherhood can be a tough sell at the best of times, and right now she's sidelined by a neck brace due to some recent surgery. She intends to kick start her search for the ideal father figure the minute the brace comes off.

By day, Rosie is a technical writer; by night, she's an ink-stained scribe who pens old-fashioned love letters for the romantic at heart. She'd kind of, sort of, hoped LOVE LETTERS, INC. would help pay the groaning mortgage on her aging house. Not happening. But she enjoys the letter writing too much to stop. She particularly enjoys writing letters for Gardenia to her fiancé Kent Summerton.

The problem is
Kent isn't engaged… to Gardenia or anyone else. Kent is the sexy-hot, very much single owner manager of a prestigious local resort. Ambitious, organized, and over-scheduled, Kent is not amused by the anonymous letters he's receiving from Gardenia. And when they become more and more explicit, he decides to track Gardenia down and put a stop to her purple pen.

All roads lead to Rosie, who's not happy to learn she's been duped by Gardenia into writing erotic spam. She's even less happy to be instantly attracted to work-crazed
Kent. With his green eyes, chiseled chin, and muscles in all the right places, he might be calendar material, but he's sooo not the man for her, and so-absolutely not the future father of her many children. After all, a six-pack of abs doesn't trump family values.

Rosie's right.
Kent doesn't want a passel of kids. Kent wants a successful business, an organized life, and a clean balance sheet. Kids? Time sucks and trouble. This he knows. Or thinks he knows. But Kent doesn't know what trouble is, until he starts wanting what he can't have—Rosie O'Hanlon.

What readers are saying:

"From that first sentence, Love Letters, Inc was great fun to read."

"The characters are well rounded and unique and the story is very well crafted. I would consider this a great "slice of life" novel and would recommend it to anyone looking for a nice read. All around tight editing and great story-telling."

"…a terrific love story with an original twist."

The Silver Cross by Debra L. Martin and David W. Small #Paranormal #Romance @dlmartin6

An "Edge-Of-Your-Seat" Paranormal Romance


There are two things Boston detective Lacey Gardner knows about killing vampires. Slicing off a head or a hit directly to the heart are the only surefire ways to kill one. Silver is their Achilles heel. A vampire never wears silver.

When she meets bartender extraordinaire, Damon Harte, her heart does a quickstep for the dark hunky guy. She's learned the hard way that having a love interest in her line of work can be heart-wrenching. She's kept to herself for years, but something about Damon captivates her and draws her to him. When she learns Damon's devastating secret, she knows what she has to do: kill the man who has stolen her heart.


What readers are saying:

"…an intense and amazing story. I highly recommend if you like a paranormal romance that has you on the edge of your seat." ~Lisa Markson

Dr. Duffy's Close Encounter by @MaggieShayne @BookDish

From NY Times and USA Today Bestselling Author, Maggie Shayne.

Thomas Duffy’s heart is hard, and he likes it that way. After 8 years as a military doctor on a war-torn third world island, he’s learned that caring too much will tear a man apart.

He hasn’t always been that way. The little boy inside him–the one who spun wild fantasies about rescuing beautiful girls from far away planets–still whispers to him from within. He ignores that little boy.

But when something crashes into the woods behind his Iowa farm, it’s that little boy who compels him to go running out in the dead of night to investigate. And when he finds that same little girl, all grown up and more beautiful than ever, he can no longer doubt the truth. The fantasy of his childhood was real. And the girl who fell from the stars is back.

What readers are saying:

"This book had it all, great romance, great conflict and enough humor to keep me laughing."
