Work-in-progress

May 162013

I’ve been quiet lately, and I don’t think I’ve talked about my work-in-progress. HEARTS IN MOTION is the first book of my Rescued Hearts series. It’s a new series with talking animals. Unfortunately, the humans can’t understand them (like real life!). The pets are secondary characters. The main characters are the hero and heroine.

Here’s an image of one of the secondary characters:

I should finish the first draft in the next 2 or 3 days. I’m pretty excited about it. What are you excited about lately?

I’m at Avalon-Lion’s wonderful cat blog and am giving away a digital copy of CATTITUDE to a commenter. I’m hearing about a lot of cats and a couple of dogs. I’m having fun. But you can comment even if you don’t have a cat or dog. I love some of the cat names mentioned, and they just might turn up in my next book.

The giveaway doesn’t end until April 30th, so you have time to enter. If you read Cattitude already, you can gift it to a friend. Or if you want one of my other books instead, I can do that.

I’m 1/3 of the way through my first draft of my next book. It has cats and dogs in it, as well as the main characters. I had to research cat furniture for this book, which I enjoyed doing. So now I’m onto the next 1/3.

I’m going to Barbara Vey’s Reader Appreciation Luncheon tomorrow. If any of you are going, come up and say hi!

MO’S HEART – Release Week Special!

Apr 182013

MO’S HEART, the 5th Miracle Interrupted book, is out! This is one of my favorite books that I’ve written. Because I love it so much, I’m having a special 99¢ sale for a week!

Next Thursday will be the last day. On Friday, the 26th, it will be raised to $3.99. Read it, and then I hope you’ll tell your reader friends about it!

Here’s the blurb:

The Mafia comes to Miracle, Wisconsin…

Mo Vincent, the owner of Mo’s Place, is in agony because his soon-to-be divorced sous-chef is dating – but not him. He has his reasons for not asking her out. He did the right thing back in New Jersey, and it cost him his son, his wife, his restaurant. Now he’s found a home in Miracle. The village has accepted him, and his new restaurant is doing well. He should be content with what he has…but his heart wants more.

Chef Rosa Fabrini’s divorce is one signature away when her cheating husband returns home and expects her to forgive him. Her lawyer is AWOL, and her youngest son is demanding she take his father back. Desperate to escape the turmoil, she asks Mo to let her move into the empty apartment above the restaurant…right next to his place.

Mo can’t say no. His mind knows she’s forbidden fruit, but his heart dares to hope. Until his past shows up, and he finds out sometimes it takes a village…

You can read an excerpt here.

MO’S HEART is available for 99¢ at Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Kobo, Smashwords, Apple, and All Ramance eBooks.

I’m wishing you a wonderful day and happy reading!

The next time I post, I’ll have more news about MO’S HEART!

I’m participating in a giant blog Authors in Bloom Blog Hop with big prizes! We’re welcoming in spring. Right now in southern Wisconsin, we’re welcoming it in with rain. But the sun will come out sometime, and we’ll have green grass and budding trees. We don’t like to use chemicals on our lawn, and my husband was researching ways to kill weeds using a natural way. He got very excited to find out that vinegar kills them. So that’s my blog hop gardening tip.

You can find other gardening tips and recipes on the 63 other author bloggers.

For my prize, I’m giving away either a print or digital copy of MIRACLE PIE to a commenter. The print is US only. Read on for the Grand Prize.

Grand prize:
The Mega-Super-Prize is a Kindle Fire (or Nook) eBook reader.

To enter my giveaway, leave a comment, follow me on twitter, Facebook or subscribe to my newsletter. Once you leave a comment, you’ll be eligible to win our grand prize! Plus there will be 2nd and 3rd prizes drawn. The more sites on the hop you visit and leave a comment, the better your chances to win! And please leave your email address in the comments, so the group organizer can see it.

So tell me, are you a gardener? Or are you more of a cook?

The Authors In Bloom tour ends April 19th at 11:59pm EST. You can find out more at the Authors in Bloom Event Page.

MO’S HEART, my 5th Miracle Interrupted book will be available soon! And I have a cover! It was created by the wonderful Laura Morrigan, and I had to show it off:

It’s one of my favorite books that I’ve written. I’m eager to see if other people agree. I’ll post about it here as soon as it’s available. And of course, I’ll send out a newsletter.

In the meantime, I have a fun post on Magical Musings today titled, Why Can’t a Man Be More Like a Woman? I’d love to know your thoughts.

I’m changing things up. My Miracle Interrupted books don’t fit my website. I hate to lose my beautiful header, but I know it’s time. Though I don’t have a new look yet, I changed my home page, and I love it, especially the slideshow. I’M not a techie person, and I couldn’t have done it without tremendous help from Michelle Diener. Dale Mayer helped me, too. The text is all mine. And I have the blurb for my next Miracle Interrupted book on the home page! I hope you’ll check it out.

I’m also on several contests this spring. You can see them listed on my News-Contests tabs, but my Spring Fling contest is live on Fresh Fiction now. I also have a March Miracle contest on Fresh Fiction. There are gift card giveaways for both.

It’s still cold by us, but the days are sunnier, and Mercury is out of retrograde. I can feel the difference. How about you?

It’s here! Daughter of the Sky!

Daughter of the Sky by Michelle Diener is an amazing, page-turning historical romance with a great, great heroine and hero. Michelle is my critique partner, and I first read this years ago. At the time we read each other’s works in chapters as we wrote them, and I looked forward eagerly to the next batch – actually resenting that I had to wait.

You can read more about it on Michelle’s blog. She has all the buy links up. I hope you’ll buy it and read it. Once you do, I know you’ll love it.

Though I’ve read it twice, I’m off to buy it on Kindle. If you prefer print, the print book will be available soon.

Word of the day: Love

Feb 282013

My word for the day is LOVE. Yesterday I finished reading a nonfiction book on a near death experience, PROOF OF HEAVEN by Eben Alexander, M.D., and what I got out of his experience in the afterlife is that it’s total love.

The wordless message he got was:

You are loved and cherished.
You have nothing to fear.
There is nothing you can do wrong.

He boiled it down to:
You are loved.

And then boiled it down further:
Love

I’m feeling that love today. What are you feeling?
