Happy Release Day to Cozzi Cove: Stepping Out!

Happy Release Day to me! Check out my interview on Long and Short Reviews with Tommy the bartender from my popular Cozzi Cove series with NineStar Press' release of COZZI COVE: STEPPING OUT (book 3). Tommy and all the characters are in for quite a ride in Cozzi Cove, where nothing is as it seems at first glance, and romance is everywhere. Enjoy! http://wp.me/p2ZcT9-gm9 P.S. - That's me on the cover. Hah.

5 star review for Cozzi Cove: Bouncing Back

Thank you Levi of Optimumm - Home of MM Book Reviews for the terrific review of Cozzi Cove: Bouncing Back (book 1 in the Cozzi Cove series), which also received a Rainbow Awards Honorable Mention, From the TBR Pile Favorite Book of the Month Award, and 3rd Place Favorite Novel of the Year at Urban Book Reviews! “This book is extremely well written and all the stories are equally compelling and cleverly crafted. There are moments when, just as you think you know what’s going on, the truth emerges and turns out to be something quite different….Cal’s guests are an amusing and heart wrenching mixed bag of people, all of whom I found irresistible in their own way….So many wonderful, poignant and often funny stories are told here….It’s a real roller coaster of a ride that’s finished off perfectly as the guests spend their last day at Cozzi Cove then check out to move on with their lives.” NineStar Press http://goo.gl/YVNoxJ And don't miss Cozzi Cove: Moving Forward, Cozzi Cove: Stepping Out (releasing Jan. 23), and Cozzi Cove: New Beginnings (releasing March 27)!

romantic Capri

Thank you Shee from Boy Meets Boy Reviews for the wonderful review of the A HOME FOR THE HOLIDAYS audiobook performed by the award-winning Joel Leslie: “The characterization is nicely done, the descriptions of the beautiful island had me feeling like I was there with the two lovely men. The dialogue is well written, engaging and is frequently funny. I liked Bobby from the outset, and Paolo quickly grew on me. Their chemistry is hot and the friendship that develops is lovely….The narration is very good, great characterization and a beautiful Italian accent I really enjoyed listening to….I’d highly recommend this sweet little Christmas tale of love and beauty.” Dreamspinner Press https://boymeetsboyreviews.blogspot.c... BTW, the sequel releases next December!

Brandilyn loves DRAMA CRUISE

“The Nicky and Noah Mysteries series are perfect for fans of the Cozy Mystery sub-genre. They mix tongue-in-cheek humor, over-the-top characters, a wee bit of political commentary, and suspense into a sweet little mystery solved by Nicky and Noah, theatre professors for whom all the world’s a stage.” Thank you Brandilyn from Prism Book Alliance for the lovely review of DRAMA CRUISE, the third Nicky and Noah comedy mystery novel. P.S. – DRAMA LUAU, book four, releases in June!

Another 5* review of DRAMA CRUISE, the third Nicky and Noah mystery

Thank you Melanie from Scattered Thoughts and Rouge Words for the 5 star review of DRAMA CRUISE, the third Nicky and Noah mystery: “Each (Nicky and Noah mystery) is a wonderful mixture of sex, comedy, romance and murder, but when Cosentino took it to an Alaska cruise and the high seas, well, it tossed it up into theatrically delicious magic….I loved this story. I love this couple. What on earth is going to happen to them next? I can’t wait to find out.” http://goo.gl/4RbVtj
