~~~
Thank you all for visiting and commenting the last few weeks as I introduced you to my two characters of the upcoming release "Fresh Beginnings".
It's time for a new story ... as yet untitled.
Meet Jeri. ~~~
Jeri cursed at her friend’s promise. She unlocked the car and threw her bag onto the passenger seat before sliding behind the steering wheel. Cranking up the radio, the music was loud enough to ignore the outside noises. She leaned back and closed her eyes, considering forgetting ab...

Review: Bella Andre "Never too Hot" - #Review #BellaAndre #HotShots
Publisher: BantamISBN: 978-0440245025
My rating: 3.5/5
A TOUCH IGNITES. A FIRE BURNS.
AND THE HEAT HAS JUST BEGUN.
Deep in the cool green mountains of the Adirondacks, wounded firefighter Connor MacKenzie has come to rebuild the 100-year-old MacKenzie family cabin – and to be alone. A horrific blaze has left him scarred inside and out and certain of two things: He’ll get back on his hotshot crew no matter what it takes, and any woman who ventures too close will not stay long.

May I introduce: Elizabeth M Darcy "Her Norman Conquest"
Her Norman Conquestby Elizabeth M Darcy
Another author who is now calling Australia home. Elizabeth "enjoys the thrill of writing romance and loves all things magical" and winning the 2007 RWA Clayton's Best Kiss Award, I'd say her books are bound to be a very good read.
1 - What draws your interest to historical romance?My qualifications are in English history and English literature so I've always been drawn to history and writing. I love visiting old buildings and watching historical se...

I signed a contract with Limitless Publishing
G'day from this end of the world.
As you might have guessed, Tuesday Tales is still on a break, so I thought I'd bring you up to date with what's happening at my end of the world.
It's been a busy couple of weeks. Almost two weeks ago, I signed a contract with Limitless Publishing for my Australian Sports Stars Trilogy. I'm looking forward to working with the team and bringing you the stories soon.
Last week also saw the release of my third book in the Beginnings series. Fresh Beginnings takes J...

Meet Jeri. ~~~
Jeri walked down the streets to her car, replaying her conversation she’d had with Olivia.
“How are your blind dates going?” her friend’s daughter asked as she came into Jeri’s gallery a couple of days earlier.
She shrugged. “I have a winner’s luck to get hooked up with all the duds...

May I introduce: Rachel Amphlett "Before Nightfall"
Before Nightfallby Rachel Amphlett
Reading through the "About Me" page on Rachel's website, I feel like I could spent a whole afternoon chatting with her - her love to travel, her interest in movies, and her current place of residence, Brisbane. AND, about settling into Australia after moving here from the UK in 2005.1 - Your "About Me" page reads like a novel in its own - helped run a pub, played lead guitar in bands, worked as a TV & film extra, dabbled in radio ... anything this...

The idea behind "FRESH BEGINNINGS"
Happy Tuesday everyone! While Tuesday Tales are on a summer break, I take the opportunity to tell you a bit about FRESH BEGINNINGS, which is going to be released "today" US time, "tomorrow" Australian time.
Fresh Beginnings is the third book in the Beginnings series and takes Jared to the US, where he travels through five states in a motorhome.
Where did I come up with the idea? My husband and I took our daughters to the US last year, and we did exactly that. We hir...

Meet Jeri. ~~~
She drank the last little bit of her wine, paid, and left. A deep disappointment settled in the pit of Jeri’s stomach. It surprised her, because it hadn’t been the first time she’d been on a blind date, with the guy not showing up. She choked back a laugh as she thought of the...
