I got a B - Another review

Another great review for When Love Flue In, this time from The Bookpushers.

Since it's only a mini review I will post the whole of the main body of the review.

"A fun and sexy Christmas novella about a recently divorced lawyer and the man who cleans his chimney every year. We get POVs from both men which I really enjoyed because I found Dominic adorable with his crush and Reagan’s moment when he realized he was the object of it was priceless.

Don't worry, last stop

And finally we arrive at the last stop of the tour. Today I'm sharing my thoughts at Therese Woodson's blog about epilogues and when you need one.


Have you been paying attention? Don't forget one lucky commenter could win a copy of When Love Flue In just by answering this simple question.

Not run out of things to talk about yet?

Today you'll find me over at Elin Gregory's blog discussing the history of chimney sweeps.

For goodness sake woman put a sock in it

Today I'll be over at Meredith Russell's blog (check out the link to her cover art work while you're there).

My inane ramblings today will involve additional content and the type of scenes guaranteed to strike fear in my heart when I'm asked to knock one up.

Me again

Hello again. Yep, it's me.

Today I'm discussing one of my favourite festive treats over at Katherine Halle's blog.

The Mince Pie. Where did that idea come from and why do we eat it at Christmas?

The stops for the tour will be

RJ Scott 
Katherine Halle
Meredith Russell
Elin Gregory
Therese Woodson

Follow each of these posts and at the end of the tour I'll pose a question. It could be taken from any of these five posts. Cor...

When Love Flue In released today

A soot-haired chimney sweep, an exploding flue and an uncooked turkey. It’s an unholy trinity that may make all of Dominic’s Christmas wishes come true.

Dominic is celebrating his first Christmas since his divorce, and although he’s spe...
