A Valentine Sneak Peek


Isn't this image gorgeous? I simply must share a sneak peek of our cover couple with you!

I am excited to announce a new Austen Anthologies book. Response has been overwhelmingly positive, so Robin, Wendi, Barbara, and I decided to do it again.

A Very Austen Valentine is now available for preorder.

And -- gasp! -- it already has a #1 New Release tag.

On the 29th you will find us featured at Janet Taylor's More Agreeably Engaged blog. Our tour launches on the 6th.

Do you subscribe to Kindle Unlimited? When the eBook goes live on the 29th, you can grab it right away. How's that for great?

I'll just mention that we have two guest authors joining us for this one.

So it's even longer!

FREE -- the first in Robin Helm's award-winning Guardian trilogy

Have you discovered Robin Helm's Guardian Trilogy?

If you enjoy Christian Suspense, Spiritual Warfare, and Angels ... with a romantic hat-tip to Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice, you won't want to miss this series.


The first eBook is FREE through Wednesday, October 17th.
And the two follow-up volumes are on sale.

Guardian, Book 1, at Amazon



How I love-love-love the new look for this series. It's Xander!

Praise for The Guardian Trilogy:

"Oh. My. Word. This was not what I had expected! This is an amazing story; I was fascinated to see how the spiritual world might be at work around us.It's interesting to see the spiritual warfare that goes on in a person's life unseen by human eyes." - Candy Morton, Indie Jane

"An inspiring Pride and Prejudice adaptation, Guardian is a moving story with a perfect balance of depth and humor." - Jakki Leatherberry, Leatherbound Reviews

"What an awe-inspiring and uplifting novel! It is hard for me to decide which I loved more: the Christian inspiration and faith that is reverently portrayed in this novel or the achingly beautiful romance!" - Meredith Esparza, Austenesque Reviews

Sir Walter Takes a Wife is now complete!




You've probably seen me post about this fun Valentine romp, which features two of Jane Austen's most awful snobs ...

And now I can share the news that it is done. Finished. Complete. Hooray!



A true 30-day-wonder, this story is. I managed to write 23k words, start to finish, within a single month.

Okay, so this is only 18% of Darcy By Any Other Name, but still. A finished story! I am loving it.

You can find it at Beyond Austen through August 31st.

If you'd like to get in on the laughs without having to wait for January's Valentine anthology, now's the time!
