In Honor of The Heroes & Heroines of 9/11
The years have not faded the memories.
Tears still moisten our cheeks.
Your courage has inspired us to move forward, to act, to continue to live and love.
Our hearts swell with pride at knowing you, if only for the briefest of moments.
Your image will never fade.

God Bless

A Long Weekend Needs Something, Right?
Cursor..
With the holiday weekend starting in like hours, I thought I'd share an excerpt of
my new release, In The Presence Of Evil. This book was inspired by an incident that got me question by the FBI. Of course, I asked questions of my own. WINK
In this scene things really begin to heat up between Gina and Cole. They've had a hard time fighting their feelings for each other and the walls begin to crumple.
In The Presence Of Evil is availble on Amazon and B&N and many other e-book site...

Friday's Friend

I'm thrilled to have my good friend Rita Henuber with me today. Her debut release, 'Under Fire', is now out from Carina Press. Guaranteed lovers of romantic suspense and strong, smart heroines and really hot action heroes will love this fast pace read. I've asked Rita to share an blurb and excerpts. Check them out. And while I continue to fill the flutes with cyber-champagne and pass the chocolate strawberries, Rita will answer your questions.

AC Here We Come

Four-thirty a.m. As a child, once a year I'd rise to the sound of my parents alarm clock buzzing at the early hour and would shoot from between the sheets as if they
were on fire . The alarm went off other mornings, but it's ringing never meant there was an adventure in store for me. My sister and I would scramble to use the bathroom before our three brothers were shaken from their beds by dad and chased after by mom. Afterwards we'd rip into the outfits we meticulously...

Love Scene; Love Them Or Hate Them?
Cursor.. Cursor…
Who loves a good love scene?
I do too, but lately while reading, I find myself flipping pages and skipping over them. Why?
And why are there books on my shelves that will fall open to the love scenes?
I pass over some love scenes and devour others because of the characters. It's that simple. The author made me love the characters. While reading the stories I became invested in their lives and their dreams. I would refer to them by name instead of the heroine and hero when tellin...

100 Ways To Relax On A Fine Summer Day
Cursor …
Our lives are filled with stress. At times, I feel I'm challenging the speed of light. My plan, today, was to list 100 ways to relax on a fine summer day, but sadly, I failed. I came up with 70. Do you have any suggestions?
1) Watch the sunrise.
2) Take five deep breaths.
3) Enjoy your morning coffee or tea with the birds.
4) Walk in the morning dew barefooted.
5) Write your thoughts in a journal.
6) Stretch. Reach for the sun and then mother earth.
7) Feed nature.
8) Pick a few wildflow...

Wine Sippin'
Cursor..
Last week, my husband and I ventured up the PA Turnpike with a few friends to the Seneca Finger Lake in New York for some wine sippin' and cherry pickin'. If you've never visited the region, you must. Not only for the delicious wines but also for the beauty. Here's a picture of the lake from one of the wineries.
Our first stop is always the Krispy Kreme doughnut shop in Old Forge, PA. I didn't get a picture of the shop because I was too busy eating a warm doughnut right off the l...

To Know Him Is To Love Him
Have you ever planted a seed?
What does planting a seed have to do with writing or a story called 'IN THE PRESENCE OF EVIL' you ask? Stay with me. I promise you'll get it.
Planting a seed…. You take this little, tiny thing, something so small that it could be a speck of dust you normally wouldn't even notice and carefully place it in the soil you've prepared and then cover it. Every day you water it and watch, waiting for the moment the seedling sprouts through the ground and turns its head t...
