Book addicts unite! 🙂

This is for those of you whose book purchases add up as quickly as mine and who, like me, love to learn about great deals. You can’t get much better than free–the price at which New Hope Publishers/Iron Stream Media is offering my first release Beyond I Do.

Here’s the blurb:

Marriage . . . it’s more than a happily ever after. Eternally more. Ainsley Meadows, raised by a hedonistic mother who cycles through jobs and relationships like wrapping paper on Christmas morning, falls into a predictable and safe relationship with Richard, a self-absorbed, socialite psychiatrist. But as Ainsley’s wedding nears, a battered woman and her child spark a long-forgotten dream, a hidden passion. One that threatens to change everything, including her fiancé. If she wants to embrace God’s best and find lasting love, this security-seeking bride must follow God with reckless abandon and realize that marriage goes Beyond I Do.

And, my next release Falling for the Family Next Door hits the shelves next week!

The home he doesn’t want could become the family he needs.

Returning home to sell his mother’s struggling farm, Tyler Reyes doesn’t expect the new neighbor to ruin his plans. But when Daria Ellis’s ATV rentals damage the property, working on repairs with the single mom is the only option. Soon the simple agreement turns into kids’ riding lessons and family dinners. With his deadline looming, Tyler knows his biggest challenge will be leaving Texas with his heart intact.

From Love Inspired: Uplifting stories of faith, forgiveness and hope.

Hello, lovely blog subscribers. Some of you have been with me for over ten years now, long before I received my first book contract. Some of you (SandyT, waving!) have prayed with and for me as I’ve sought to follow God’s lead on this crazy, fun, hard, and sometimes confusing journey. So, it only seemed right that y’all got to see the cover for my September release first!

If I add enough enters here, will that create a “delay” affect? No? Okay, here it is. 🙂 What do you think?
