Spring is here...and so is some exciting news from Abundance

3/29/2020

COVID-19 is wreaking havoc on us all

Hello readers,

First off,
I hope you are all well and safe and taking all the precautions you can amidst this pandemic. Times are crazy and scary too, despite all the funny memes that are circulating right now. Laughter is good medicine though and the morbid side of me must laugh where I can, when I can, to keep from going nuts.

What are you doing for your mental health during this time?

Me?

I've been working out, writing, reading and taking calming baths-- ya see, my husband and I are still working among all this chaos, so life has gone on.

I find routine helps with my melancholy, although I do miss seeing my family and I sincerely hate that I couldn't be with my sister yesterday on her birthday :-(

But I do have some happy news to share with you:

**The Abundance series is finally complete**

The fifth (technically sixth) book in the Abundance series is here, Abundance Legacy. Take a journey back to the Texas town where swoony cowboys await to take your breath away, families are rock solid, and love is just a heartbeat away.

You’ll get Savannah, Jax, and Morgan’s stories and be prepared for some action, suspense and steam.

The grand finale had to be grand indeed, so I pulled out all the stops!

You can grab your copy HERE now.

SALE on book 1- now ONLY $0.99

With everyone being stuck home, why not have a big sale on my first book of the series?
You can get your Kindle copy of Abundance right now for just $0.99.

You can also grab the prequel novella, Starlight Valley, for FREE by signing up for my quarterly newsletter.

So, what's next....?

So, what’s next for this author you might ask?

Well, I got plenty up my sleeves including a fantasy, a dystopian sci-fi, an anthology and so much more. Summer brings a paranormal folklore story that’s sure to please. My friend, Jen said it was one of the best short stories she’s ever read…and she’s read A LOT!

I’ll be sure to let you know when that will be released ;-)

GODS of the GRIDIRON series-
COMING THIS FALL

I’m currently working on a four book football romance series too--The Gods of the Gridiron. I’m (hoping) to release the first book in the series, TITLE COMING SOON, in early fall/late summer. We shall see how the writing goes.

Sin and Secrets Series-
COMING THIS FALL

Calling all my dark(er) romance fans:

I've also got a hot prequel novella coming in November. It’s a collaboration I’m doing with three other authors, Nicole Rodrigues, Kali Brixton and Cara Wade. It's gonna be sooo good.

It’s a dark romance starter that will have four books to follow it.

Stay tuned because we have brought the heat, twists, and craziness to this one.
