Lyn Asks the January 2024 Question!

Our January Question will not be about New Year’s Resolutions!

I’m surprising you with a spring-summer-ish question to brighten January! (Or it might be apropos if you live farther south than I do. ‘-)

What kind of garden do you have—casual, formal, floral or mostly veggie? What plants to you favor? (Mine is presently under snow–but I remember!:-)

My upcoming February contemporary sweet romance, KAT’S STRICTLY BUSINESS PARTNER, the final book in “The Preacher’s Daughters”series is about a young woman who inherits a garden nursery and is vexed to need a business partner! So let’s start thinking green!

Kat's Strictly Business Partner

Well, hope you all enjoy Christmas and New Year’s and keep safe!—Lyn

(My late cats, V-8 and Tricksy, lying on my lap in front of the tree. I miss them.)

Lyn Reviews Richard Houston’s A View to Die For

 

A View to Die For (To Die For #1)A View to Die For by Richard Houston
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I hadn’t realized that I had read two other books in the “to die for” series. The cover is dominated by a large, shaggy dog, not like the Disney classic, just a big furry canine. Anyway, that’s Fred who does not have a point of view and it’s just a big, lovable pet. The cast of characters are definitely not the kind of people I usually hang around with, and I had sympathy for the hero, amateur detective, since he WAS able to think logically. I understood why he moved away from his family! Anyway, very twisty Turny plot with plenty of red herrings, and a fun dog!

Lyn Asks the November Question

Out My Window-Fall

 

What’s the November question, you ask? Well, let’s have a bit of fun. 

Do you have a fond childhood memory of Halloween or fall in general you’d like to share? 

I know many people don’t like all the gruesome and dark things that are now a part of Halloween. I don’t like them either. I won’t even watch Halloween Baking Championship and I watch all the other holiday baking shows. But everything they bake for the HBC is disgusting or revolting looking. I wouldn’t touch it much less eat it. UGH.

But I do have happy memories of cheerful trick or treating as a child and with my children. So anything you’d like to share—funny or heartwarming?–Lyn

A New Book by Pat Simmons!

Pat Simmons

Author Pat Simmons

Contempt Cover Front

 

Grandma BB, (I love that photo!) the unofficial matriarch of the Jamieson clan, is getting her house in order for the perfect homegoing celebration. After all, she’s eighty-something.

She summons Parke Jamieson VI, his brothers, cousins, and their families to play a part in the practice funeral program—only if they follow her instructions to the letter.

Since the Jamiesons are at her house with bodyguards Chip and Dale, they might have an impromptu family game night.

The evening is full of surprises, especially when an unexpected visitor shows up to steal the show. With more work that needs to be done, Grandma BB plans to put her funeral on hold and stick around for a couple more generations.
