The Prospector’s Only Prospect – Only 99c
Flash Sale! The Prospector’s Only Prospect has been marked down for a Kindle Goldbox promotion on July 6th, but the price has already dropped.
Visit the old west where Marigold uses her sister’s mail-order-bride ticket to show up in Denver and she is not the bride Virgil ordered.
Nevertheless, he has three young children who need a caregiver and, frankly, so does he.
From Goodreads:
“Oh yeahhhhh!! So so good! I love everything single thing about this book. I would change absolutely nothing about it…” ~Marceline, 5 stars
It *looks* like the book has been marked down on *all* retailers, but please check before you hit ‘buy.’
And hey! Did you know there’s a follow-up book about Virgil’s best friend, Owen called The Saloon Girl’s Only Shot?
Owen has always dreamed of opening his own saloon and when he does, the only saloon girl he can get is the one who’s been fired from every other bar in town.
Like the first book, The Saloon Girl’s Only Shot is funny and heartbreaking and, instead of children, there is a silly dog to help bring them together. Find all your links here:

The Greek’s Wife Returns (early?)
Are you as anxious for The Greek’s Wife Returns as I am?
Good news! You can get this one from Harlequin.com or Mills & Boon UK today.
If you loved the very problematic and sarcastic Carmel in Maid to Marry, you’re going to love seeing her own her messy self and win back her secret husband in The Greek’s Wife Returns.
I seriously adore these two.
Damian is my favorite type of hero–the one who has been in love the whole time and doesn’t see it.
Carmel is flawed and flippant and so darned in need of being loved for herself, it’s painful–and wonderful when she gets exactly that.
The Greek’s Wife Returns will release everywhere on July 29th. Follow the link below to preorder now.

KU – His Mistress with Two Secrets
Heads up! I just noticed that His Mistress With Two Secrets is in Kindle Unlimited.
If you like twins and arrogant billionaires who get utterly destroyed by love, you’ll want to read this one.
Cinnia is having a torrid affair with Henri when she discovers she’s pregnant. She asks him if he plans to marry her and he says no. His family has been hounded by paparazzi his whole life. He won’t subject a wife and child to that.
So Cinnia leaves him, which makes him very grumpy. Then he learns she’s pregnant. And, you guess it, it’s twins.
His Mistress With Two Secrets is book two in my Sauveterre Siblings quartet and this is a great time to dive into them.
Why? Because about a year ago, a fan asked me if I was ever going to revisit them. I promptly wrote the book that comes out this November, Boss’s Christmas Baby Acquisition, about Cinnia’s sister.
You can read the quartet in any order and can learn more here:

Afternoon Delight ~ Cover Reveal
How delightful is this cover for Afternoon Delight?
I’m so thrilled with everything about this book–the cover, the story, the publisher (me!) It releases Aug 19th and I cannot wait to share it with you.
It’s never too late to toy with change…
Freshly divorced and nearing forty, Meg regrets making all the safe choices. When her best friend needs surgery, Meg puts her accounting career on hold to run her friend’s racy adult toy shop—but her vanilla life never prepared her for this!
At thirty-two, Zak leaves the tech world for his dad’s antique store, wanting time with him before dementia erases his father’s memories. He’s Meg’s landlord, but she becomes his confidante, distracting him from his troubles with her suggestive puns and amusing misadventures.
Flirty banter leads to test-driving toys together, but Meg knows they won’t last. Their age-gap puts them in different life-stages and she lives in Toronto. A few afternoons of delight can’t change her life. Can they?
Afternoon Delight is a stand-alone, slow-burn to steamy older woman/younger man romance. No cliffhangers, no cheating, just laughs, chemistry, and heart.
