During July – Enter to win a copy of Lost in Shadow
During the month of July I’m offering a chance to win one of four available copies of Lost in Shadow, Book 1 in the Shadow Walkers series.
A relaxing vacation to Scotland turns deadly when a chance encounter with a mysterious stranger leads to murder. Shocked when she witnesses a man commit murder before disappearing in front of her eyes, Emily learns she possesses an extraordinary ability allowing her to interact with ghosts.
Unwittingly drawn into shadow when she intervenes to help Colin, igniting the ancient warrior’s long-buried desires, she unleashes a terrible curse. Now with only a week to break the curse, time is running out as they are locked in a deadly fight with forces that will stop at nothing to destroy them before they succeed. Intensely romantic and thrilling, Lost in Shadow portrays the struggle between redemption, retribution and the desire to find a love that transcends time.

Summer’s Here
Okay, so maybe it’s been hot for a while where you are. It sure has here in North Carolina. However, today, June 21st is the official first day of summer.
How do you enjoy summer? Catch more movies, read more, eat lighter meals, hang out at the pool? Tell me 
And for all of you wanting a summer treat, here’s a recipe for Watermelon Sorbet from my Wicked Green Smoothies blog.
Summer is the perfect time of year for lighter fare. I don’t know about you but I don’t want a hot meal when it’s hot out. And baby, here in North Carolina, it’s hot and humid! Sorbet is a favorite summer refresher. 
Watermelon is one of my favorite summer fruits sooo, put them together in sorbet!
Watermelon Sorbet
make a simple syrup – half sugar, half water
1/2 c. water
1/2 c. sugar
bring to a boil
Add a tbsp. of fresh-squeezed lime juice or throw a slice of lime and simmer for a minute Let cool, remove lime slice
Cut up watermelon into chunks. You’ll need about 8 cups.
Throw it all in the food processor and process until smooth.
Pour in rectangular backing dish and freeze about 4 hours, stir every hour.
When frozen, pop it back in the food processor in batches and pulse. Serve and sigh in pleasure!
Happy Summer!
