It’s November and since I blog here every other month
this is my last blog on Cowboy Kisses for this year. I’ve had a great year and still more releases
and exciting deals for readers to come from me before the ball drops on 2016.
I just released book 7 in my Shandra Higheagle mystery
series. It’s a Christmas mystery with Shandra’s dog, Sheba, having a starring
role in the story. Crazy Lil, Shandra’s employee, spends most of the book
doctoring her old mare. So you see, while this is a mystery, it also has western
elements. You can check out Yuletide Slaying here.
Another big holiday event for me is the fact, I’m
selling print book bundles at a special holiday price and if you live in the United
States you get free shipping and my autograph on the books. If I run out of
books on hand and need to ship them from the printer, I’ll send you autographed
book plates. You can check out the
bundles and prices here.
December 1st, my contemporary western
romance, Bridled Heart, will re-release with a new cover and updated material. I interviewed
World Champion bareback rider Bobby Mote and his wife to make the hero in the
book ring true. The hero, Holt Reynolds, has his sights set on the World
Champion bareback title when he becomes intrigued with ER nurse, Gina Montgomery.
In the book, they both have a past they’d like to forget, but that same past defines them. From
December 1-10th during the National Finals Rodeo this book will
be available for $.99 in ebook. The end of the book is set during the National Finals in Las Vegas.
I’m having a Re-release and Rodeo party on Dec.2nd
with seven contemporary western authors. This is to highlight the re-release of
Bridled
Heart. We’d love to have you stop by to talk rodeo and western romance.
They’ll be prizes and lots of fun. You can find the information about this
event here.
While it looks like I have a lot releasing right now,
I’m also working on the research for the next book in the Letters of Fate
series and writing a contemporary western novella for a box set. The life of a writer is never dull or boring!
One of my favorite things during the holidays is
baking. I’ll leave you with one of the recipes I use every year in my plate of
goodies for friends and neighbors.
Pound Cake
½ lb butter(softened)
1 2/3 cups sugar
5 eggs
2 cups flour
½ tsp lemon extract
Mix butter and sugar till smooth. Add eggs
one at a time. Mix well again. Add flour, then flavoring.
Grease two 4 x 8 loaf pans or four 2 x 4
pans, dust with flour. Bake 50 minutes
at 350°. A toothpick inserted should be dry when the cakes are done. Remove from pans while still warm.
Happy Holidays!
