Sales & an update!

I'm delighted to report that I've finished the first draft of my new Better Later Romance, featuring a couple over 50, entitled Don't Be Silly! At My Age? The heroine’s sister was featured in my last book, Really? At Your Age?

It's fun writing about a bold, creative woman in her fifties discovering real love, with a man learning how much he didn’t know during his first marriage (he’s widowed).

Meanwhile, if you're looking for love between the pages, I just put The Police Chief's Lady (Downhome Doctors #1) on sale for 99 cents!

Dr. Jenni Vine needs a second chance, and Downhome, Tennessee desperately needs a doctor. But the community—especially its handsome police chief—isn’t prepared for scandal! A Romantic Times top pick. Available at Amazon, B&N, Kobo, Apple, Google, Smashwords).

Looking ahead, March 7-13, most of my books will be on sale half price at Smashwords.com. On my profile page, https://www.smashwords.com/profile/vi..., scroll down and pick as many as you like. Remember, that's not until March 7-13.

Hiding out with fun books!

If you're like me, you're staying home as much as possible, maybe binge-watching Bridgerton and reading like crazy!

It's always fun to put a book on sale. I just lowered to 99 cents the price of His Hired Baby, a Safe Harbor Medical romance about a suddenly single dad dealing with a surrogate and his baby-to-be. Available at Amazon, https://www.amazon.com/dp/B072BWH597. Also Barnes&Noble, Kobo, Apple, Smashwords and Googleplay.

If you're interested in the craft of writing, try How to Write a Novel in One (Not-so-easy) Lesson, also on sale for 99 cents this month. It's entertaining as well as informative! The Amazon link is https://www.amazon.com/Write-Novel-No.... Also at Barnes&Noble, Kobo, Apple and Smashwords.

If you've been waiting for my Better Late Romance--entitled Really? At Your Age?--to be available at more sites, it's now posted at B&N, Kobo, Apple, Smashwords and Googleplay as well as Amazon. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08BK8G9MC

Meanwhile, I'm writing a second Better Late Romance about the first heroine's older sister, a nurse. At 54, she decides to try writing a pirate romance--and embarks on a funny, surprisingly romantic journey of her own. My working title is Don't Be Silly! At My Age?

Take care and stay well!

Time to escape!

During this turbulent month (no need to explain, right?), I've dropped the price to 99 cents on one of my most fun, fast-paced, absorbing novels, One Husband Too Many.

An amulet sends Jana back six years... into deadly danger! Impulsively, she wishes for a second chance, before she met the rogue she impulsively married. To her shock, it works— and lands her in the arms of the same man, who's using another name and involved in a scheme that might get them both killed.

Hope you enjoy this getaway!

Live video + a rollercoaster comedy on sale!

I've just put The Cowboy and the Heiress on sale for 99 cents (this is NOT The Cowboy and the Shotgun Bride, which was on sale last month). The blurb:
Fun-loving heiress Maddy Armand has a gift for getting into trouble. First, a misguided magic spark makes her fall for a bounty hunter. Then, he accidentally kidnaps her. The next thing she knows, she’s posing as his wife at a marriage weekend—to catch a killer!
Available at:
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00D381IKW/
https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/cowb...
https://store.kobobooks.com/en-us/ebo...
https://books.apple.com/us/book/the-c...

Live video!
This is a first for me, an experiment during our enforced isolation, but it should be fun. Three other authors who are, with me, writing Better Late Romances about couples over 50 will be live on Facebook on Tuesday, Oct. 20, at 6 p.m. Pacific time, at https://www.facebook.com/BethScape. I hope you'll join us! (I think this video will be available afterwards as well).
The books are clean--no bad language or sex. Just great stories and memorable characters!

Wedding scandal--on sale!

It’s a huge society wedding—a whole weekend’s worth—but the groom’s dogged by doubts. His pushy mother-in-law-to-be orders her overworked assistant, Anne, to keep him line, unaware that she’s his ex-girlfriend. How much of a catastrophe will there be? Romantic Times called this hilarious comedy “a wonderful romance.” On sale for 99 cents on multiple sites, including Amazon https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0791XJH7Q/

Also, don't miss my new Better Late romance, featuring an older couple. It's free to #KindleUnlimited subscribers until October. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08BK8G9MC

The blurb:
After life has kept them apart for decades, can a couple in their fifties find a path to love? When a quake rattles their small town, Dr. Cody Matchett and hospital attorney Ben Wright are both jolted into rethinking their life choices. That includes their long-simmering attraction, and the fate of half a dozen frozen embryos. Is Cody ready to become a mom—and to accept love—at age 52?

Wishing you a safe and comfortable August!
