In the Nick of Time – New Release from Julia Ridgmont
In the Nick of Time by Julia Ridgmont
Sometimes life hands you a challenge, and sometimes a challenge gives you a new life.
For Aurora Weathersby, a simple farmer’s daughter, falling for the mill house owner’s son in Belle, Wyoming was easy as pie. What isn’t easy is seeing Nick Carrington pay no heed to her while he pines for another girl. When the Western Renegades Show comes to a neighboring town and her younger brother wants to go see it, Rorie sees this as her opportunity to catch Nick’s eye once and for all. Little does she know that the show is going to change her entire life…
If it wasn’t for Rorie Weathersby’s temper being as red-hot as her hair, Nick would hardly notice her. As it is, he’s got his eye on another young woman in Belle, but she’s not cooperating. When he sees an opportunity to win her over by organizing a youth excursion into the next town over to see the show, he jumps right on it–never thinking that he’ll be called on to help Rorie find her missing brother.
Then things take an unexpected turn, and Rorie and Nick suddenly find themselves temporarily married. Will they be able to find her brother and bring him back to Belle in time for an important barn raising? Will they want to stay married to each other after all is said and done? And will they ever find the love they’ve both wanted and deserve?

Now it is payback time for Colonel Bradford, the man who had him wrongfully kicked out of the army. Matt wants to destroy everything his enemy holds dear, including his daughter, Jo.
Jo Bradford is a fired up conservationist who is on a collision course with Matt Page, the city developer, who wants to destroy her mountain home. She never dreamed that she could fall in love with him, or even more amazingly, marry him.
After Matt banishes Jo from his life he realizes he loves her.
Can he forget past injustices and win her back? Or is he doomed to a life of regret for what he could have had – a loving wife and family.

Roses – Love Them Or Hate Them – Margaret Tanner
Housekeeping and tidying up. Not my favourite topic or occupation, unless we are taking about tidying up my garden. In particular my rose garden, which I tend with loving care, because roses truly deserve special treatment. No chore to tidy up here. I banish any weed the moment it rears its ugly head near my “lovelies.”
Roses are my favourite flower. My husband thinks I am obsessed with them. I always wear rose perfume, Bush Rose, Musk Rose. The Yardley (English company) Rose has a lovely perfume, as sweet and fragrant as its namesake. How many wonderful people have you met who are called Rose, Rosy, Rosemarie, Rosemary?
I have to confess that my garden is full of roses. Hubby hates them with a passion because he thinks they deliberately jump out and stick their prickles into him.
I love the old fashioned roses the best. They may not be quite as colourful as the modern day varieties, but they always have a gorgeous perfume. Just Joey, a beautiful large bloomed orange rose with a delightful perfume is one of my favourites. Another favourite is a blood red rose named Oklahoma, the perfume is as heady as wine. My garden has recently acquired a rose called. The Chocolate Rose. I have to say that although the bloom is pretty, it isn’t stunning, but it certainly has a chocolate perfume, and you can take that observation from a chocoholic. If there is one thing I know, it is the smell of chocolate.
It amazes me how often I seem to give the characters in my novels a floral name. It must have been an instinctive thing because I don’t recall actively trying to do this.
In Haunted Hearts, the heroine’s daughter is called Rosie. In A Mortal Sin, the heroine is named Daphne. Iris is the wicked mother-in-law in Make Love Not War
I have also written a novel with the title of A Rose In No-Man’s Land. Can you see a pattern here?
So, there you have it. I wonder if there is such a thing as a roseaholic?
