An invitation to join us on Thursday, February 7th, from 7PM – 9PM (Eastern).

It’s that time again. August was a wild ride and the stuff I learned this month?  Pretty random.  Here goes. 1. The Olympics are my favorite. Oh my word. I get lost in the backstories of the athletes, the drama of the competition, the rivalries. Love me some rivalries. You have medals? I want you… [ read more ]

Let me welcome you to my first “A Few Thoughts” edition. Some (like today’s entry) will be more serious and thought provoking, but not all! I have future “thoughts” to share with you on everything from the NCIS season finale (sniff) to chocolate. If you enjoy these, please let me know! Now… I’d like to… [ read more ]

You should be reading more books published by Harlequin. Really. As I mentioned in my post a few months ago (this one – I Write For Harlequin – you should definitely read it!), the term “Harlequin” has a tendency to raise some eyebrows. Some people assume that if the book has the Harlequin logo on the cover, it’s one… [ read more ]

There are only a handful of authors whose books shoot to the top of my to-be-read pile as soon as they become available. Lynette Eason is one of those authors. No One To Trust is the first novel in her new Hidden Identity series. I was a little sad to say goodbye to the characters in the Deadly Reunions Series… [ read more ]

Ronie Kendig, Missy Tippens, Lynette Eason, Ginny Aiken I want a magic bullet. Somewhere there’s a book, a routine, maybe a diet, or even an outfit. Somewhere, there’s one thing I’m missing and when I find it, my publishing dreams will come true! Right? In my quest for the elixir of publishing success, I had… [ read more ]

One of my personal rules of writing book reviews is No Spoilers – so be prepared for this review to send you straight to your local bookstore! Lynette Eason wraps up the Deadly Reunions series with When A Secret Kills and, well, at the risk of sounding cliche… It starts with a bang. (Sorry, that’s all I… [ read more ]

When A Heart Stops Book 2 in the Deadly Reunions Series Back in May of 2011, I reviewed Too Close to Home by Lynette Eason . It was the first in the 3-book Women of Justice series and all three were excellent. Then, I eagerly read When the Smoke Clears—the first book in Lynette’s new Deadly Reunions series—as soon as it became available. ( You can read my review here… [ read more ]

A few weeks ago we talked about the seven things readers can do to support their favorite authors . But there was one item I left off the list…on purpose! One of the best things a reader can do to support their favorite authors is … Tell everybody about their books! Every now and then, I’m going to use our Thursdays to introduce you to authors I… [ read more ]

Lynette Eason has done it again! When the Smoke Clears is the first in her new Deadly Reunions series (doesn’t that sound ominous!) and it has everything I loved from her Women of Justice series – romance, mystery, and characters with intriguing professions. But she’s taken it up a notch in the suspense department! The first few chapters come hard and fast with all the pacing of a… [ read more ]
