Merry Christmas

I hope everyone had a very Merry Christmas. Mine was very eventful in a good way. We had Christmas Eve at grandma's with my aunts, uncles, cousins, niece, nephew, and the rest of my family. We have been so blessed as a family, lots of love and close relationships. Sunday, we had the immediate family over at my sister and her husband's house. That included a flight around Rome in my brother-in-law's plane.







   I got a fitbit charge from my lovely wife, which registers all my activity, both sleeping and awake. Now, I plan on getting serious about my fitness. One of my many New Years resolutions. I have them all written out and planned, including reading a book a week, getting more writing done, and seeing my family and friends more. What are some of your resolutions and how was your Christmas?

Well, it is that time of the year again. The Secret Cravings Authors Wounded Warrior Bloghop. All of us are donating money to the Wounded Warrior project. I am donating $1 for every comment, up to $100, but starting at $20. I wonder if we can get everyone to publish their favorite recipe they like to make during a holiday. I am including any holiday, so if you have a favorite Halloween or Valentine's Day recipe, share it.

Happily, all edits are finished and book two of the Love Lost and Found series will be available for pre-order in a couple of days. This one is a little more action packed than the first one, and just as romantic.

Dangerous Love Lost and Found

Edits are about finished and we have a cover! Thank you Jean and the other cover artists, I love it.

Her CIA operative career destroys trust. His life as a Marine makes relationships difficult. A quick affair with no expectations should be easy for them, shouldn’t it?

Dangerous Love Lost and Found

It has been a while since I last posted.I have been very busy lately working on the second book of the Love Lost and Found series with my coauthor, Jean Joachim. Final edits are being done and we will await a release date! I am excited, as I love these characters.




Here is the blurb for the second book. We are awaiting the book cover suggestions and as soon as we have it, I will let everyone know.


With danger lurking around any corner, Eden Wyatt, CIA covert operative, traveled solo.  Hopping from one brief affair to the next, she’d be damned if she’d get a guy killed for loving her. But a chance meeting with a sexy, smart Major on New Year’s Eve rattled her resolve.
Hunted by assassins, Eden had forgotten how to trust. Wary, ever on the alert, the stunning woman, ready to kill or be killed, knew what she wanted. Would she dare break her own rules for Major Tom Davis?
Barreling through her defenses, Major Davis insisted on playing his own game. A man used to giving orders, not taking them, refused to accept her terms. Would Eden put herself in the hands of those who wanted her dead, for love? Or would she kiss happiness goodbye and disappear back into her precarious life of running and hiding?

Happy Easter

Happy Easter everybody. I hope everyone is having a great time spending it with family and friends. I was busy with Easter Sunrise Service at church, Easter breakfast, performing in the second service, rushing to my dad's church for his service, taking him to the Olive Tree for lunch, and now home to relax for a few before Monday. Jean and I are moving along, albeit slowly, on Love Lost and Found 2, but be rest assured, it is coming! :D Enjoy your day today and I will post updates soon, after the craziness is gone.

Romfest and The Novel Experience

WOW! How time had flown. Last weekend(March 22), we went to Romfest in Knoxville for a conference and book signing.(www.romfest.com) It was an amazing time meeting our readers and chatting with the other authors.  This past weekend was The Novel Experience in Atlanta.(http://thenovelexperienceevent.blogspot.com/p/faq.html) All day Saturday was spent signing autographs, working on book 2 of our series, and throwing kisses and making funny faces at Julie Morgan.(www.JulieMorganBooks.com)
Ok, so I was throwing Reese's peanut butter cups and she was throwing Hershey's Kisses! :D
   Book 2 is coming along well, so at the next year's Romfest and other conferences, I will have two, if not three, books to sell and sign! :D
