I hope you have time to read a book. I’ll be back on Thursday with two more chapters of No Other Choice. (I hope.)

Her Father’s Choice, Edition 2 is Here

I have recently completed the work of updating all the files and covers for Her Father’s Choice (Choices, book 1). In the process of updating things, I decided to make a larger print version of the book. I have never had large print editions of these books. I will continue to include a new large print edition for the books in this series as I move forward with the Choices Refresh Project.

Speaking of that project, I just started re-reading/re-editing book 2. I plan to begin sharing that story here on the blog, beginning on October 7, 2021.

Sketches and Secrets of Summer Cover

Sketches and Secrets of Summer is in the final days of being prepared for publication, which is slated for August 20. It should be on preorder soon. I’ll post here on the blog when it is available. Now, how about a little teaser of an excerpt from the book that hints at why the word secrets is in the title. 😉

Aaron’s hands were clasped behind his back as he walked at a sedate pace towards where Miss Bennet and Miss Darcy were seated. He glanced warily at Stuart.

“Just say it.” Stuart knew that look. Aaron was thinking something that he thought needed to be said but was something which might make Stuart angry.

“A wife might make your job easier.”

“I am sure you are correct, which is why Broderick should have left the girls to you.”

“I have no wife.”

“No, but you also have no aversion to taking one.”

Aaron huffed. “Are you going to allow Sarah to steal all your happiness?”

“It was not Sarah who did the stealing.”

“Yes, it was.” Aaron took hold of Stuart’s arm and stopped him. “Broderick was not without fault, but the greatest share of the blame must fall to the schemer who played brother against brother to gain all she wanted.”

Stuart’s brow furrowed. “What do you mean?”

“I cannot say. Not yet.”

*Darcy Family Holidays, Volume 1*, is on sale for $2.99 until July 31, 2021.

Goodbye Summer (Danielle Bradbery, Thomas Rhett)

Today’s our last week of songs with Summer in the title, so I thought this title seemed appropriate. 😀

Also, the lyrics “Hello, Summer. Goodbye to my heart” are fitting for Mary and Stuart’s story as you can sort of tell from the excerpt below.

These few lines come during a conversation that Mary and Stuart are having during an outing with his nieces. Poor Mary has most certainly lost her heart by this point in the story.

Would you like to see the cover for Stuart and Mary’s story? Then, come back on Wednesday to see it and read one last excerpt.
