Free eBook -- Contemporary Romance, FOREVER SWEETHEARTS, by R. Barri Flowers

Now FREE eBook in Kindle, Apple Books, and Barnes & Noble, the heartwarming contemporary love story classic, Forever Sweethearts, by award winning author R Barri Flowers.

Taylor Holland, forty-six, is a professor of women's studies at Michigan State University. She has been married for nearly twenty years to a criminology professor, Paul Holland, and has a nineteen-year-old daughter, Audra, attending Oxford University.

After ignoring the underlying tensions in her marriage, they come into greater focus when Taylor receives a phone call from a hot new reality television series that reunites old lovers, called Forever Sweethearts. She is invited to appear on the show with her first love and college sweetheart, Vaughn Mitchell.

Taylor had not seen Vaughn in twenty-five years--not since he inexplicably broke off their engagement, leaving her devastated and disillusioned. Though wary of going down that road again, Taylor agrees to participate in the reality series' reunion in New York City.

Taylor hopes that by doing so she can finally put closure to that part of her life, where feelings and frustrations had continued to linger. She had not counted on Vaughn's determination to "make things right" or her renewed attraction to him.

Vaughn Mitchell, forty-seven, is a Harvard Law School graduate and corporate lawyer living in Chicago. Divorced with a twenty-year-old daughter, Nicole, Vaughn seeks out his first love for old times' sake, stirring up memories and desires neither can ignore.

After reuniting on Forever Sweethearts, a reluctant Taylor begins corresponding with Vaughn by e-mail, leading to discovery, rediscovery, passion, promise, and the bridging of twenty-five years that were lost in time, distance, and regrets.

Forever Sweethearts will remind readers of other heartwarming relationship novels written by some of today's bestselling authors of contemporary women's fiction.

Just Published -- Exposed Evidence: A Jessica Frost Legal Thriller by R. Barri Flowers

Exposed Evidence: A Jessica Frost Legal Thriller is a gripping new mystery and suspense thriller by award winning author R. Barri Flowers.

Criminal defense attorney Jessica Frost is hired to defend twenty-one-year-old daughter college student Stephanie Dozier who is accused of stabbing to death her roommate Kristine McVeigh, the daughter of a prominent local judge, Ralph McVeigh, as a result of a love triangle. The accused and victim attended Wryer College, a private women’s institution in Creighton Hills, Oregon. Stephanie was caught holding the murder weapon, a ten-inch serrated knife, while standing over the bloody body.

Jessica is up against Thorne County Deputy District Attorney Madeleine Griffin who paints the accused as committing the crime in jealous rage against her romantic rival and is determined to win a conviction. Over the course of her investigation, Jessica learns that Kristine was part of a secretive group of attractive college students called The Sexy Coeds Club, who made it their mission to seduce married college professors for higher grades and money to finance their college expenses and lifestyles. They threatened to expose the cheating professors who refused to play ball.

Jessica, who recently ended a relationship with married financial advisor Hugh Holliman, becomes involved with private investigator Liam Reed, whose current case has him investigating the suicide of a Wryer art history professor a month earlier. Their cases become entwined when Jessica discovers the professor was being blackmailed by one of the Coeds Club members. To further complicate matters, her ex-lover’s name is also linked to the victim, making him and his embittered wife suspects in the murder.

As dark secrets emerge and other members of the Coeds Club fall prey to a killer, Jessica races against time to thwart the efforts of a gifted adversary in court, and prevent a vindictive killer from making her a victim, with her client’s freedom hanging in the balance.

Exposed Evidence is in eBook and print, wherever books are sold. Get your copy to this page turner legal thriller today!

Washed Ashore from the Titanic

Washed Ashore from the Titanic is a time travel romance novelette and third title in the Stairway in Time audio romance series by best-selling novelist R. Barri Flowers.

In April 1912, schoolteacher Valerie McElroy and her eight-year-old sister Ruby booked passage on the RMS Titanic for a return trip to America after visiting an aunt in London, England. When the supposedly unsinkable passenger liner hits an iceberg, Valerie and Ruby find themselves apparently safe after being put on a lifeboat.

But things go further awry when Valerie finds herself knocked off the crowded lifeboat and into the cold sea. While attempting to swim back to safety and her sister, a mysterious fog suddenly appears out of nowhere and engulfs her, and then, everything goes black.

In April 2004, Jonathan Sandler, a recluse widower and author, is shocked to find a beautiful and strangely dressed young woman washed ashore and lifeless near his secluded waterfront home in Maine. Bringing her inside, he helps her regain consciousness, only to discover that she has amnesia, with no idea who she is or how she wound up on his shore. As much intrigued as perplexed by his unexpected guest, Jonathan finds himself falling for her, even as he tries to uncover the mystery. Never in his wildest dreams could he have imagined her story.

Valerie was equally perplexed beyond words once she regained her memory and realized that she had somehow been transported to the future - 92 years, to be exact. While trying to make sense of it, including falling in love with her handsome rescuer, she discovers that her sister Ruby is still alive.

It is after they reunite that Valerie makes a fateful decision that will impact both their lives and her future with Jonathan, assuming a future was theirs to have in the corridors of time.

Bonus material includes a complete riveting historical short story “Murder Aboard the Titanic” and excerpts of the author’s heartwarming contemporary romance novel The Cabin on Belle Bay.

Available in audio, eBook, and print.
