Catching Up and Looking Forward

Worth the Effort (Worth 4) is now available as an ebook on all online venues. Print version will be ready in a few weeks.

Since I don't blog all that often, I thought I'd let you know what I'm working on next:

Worth 5 (Worth the Price) will be Twain Beck's story and will be available in early 2014.
My thought with the Worth books are natural trilogies:
Books 1-3 the Besties
Books 4-6 the Becks
Books 7-9 the Bros
I've got some good ideas for the "bros" books... you know Zeke's just waiting to be heard from! And, can Ron be redeemed?

I'm also planning on a holiday Worth novella where we revisit our original three besties, Lizzie, Katie and Alison, as well as introduce a new romance. (hint: he's introduced in Worth The Effort—and it's not Twain) Working title is Totally Worth Christmas .
AND...
Besides the next Worth book, I'm also working on something a little different for me—a New Adult romance. I've really enjoyed the books I've read in this sub-genre and a story started percolating so intensely that I just had to write it.

In Too Deep will be book 1 of the Roommates Trilogy. Be on the lookout for it late this fall. I thought you might like to see a bit of the real Copper Country. I change the names of most of the places I use in my Worth series, but some not. (Pat's IGA is real, though the name is really Pat's Foods, and you do run into everyone there when you look your worst, pint of ice cream in hand.) Tootie's, featured in Worth The Effort, is based on a real place, with a real stained-glass canopy behind the bar. Here's a pic I took in the real bar a few weeks ago. (oh, what I go through for research!)
