Rachel Rocks! - Blog Hop

Rachel Van Dyken, a personal friend of mine got the most thrilling news when we were all at a convention a couple of weeks ago. It was every writer's dream - a huge contract and publishing deal with Grand Central Publishing (Hatchette)! She was so excited! And let me tell you, she totally deserves it!

Rachel is sweet, caring, hard-working, and a fantastic writer! She has helped me so much in my own writing, and I will be forever grateful :)

Here's one of her books. It was so hard to pick just one for the hop, so I picked one that means a lot to me. This book is the reason I became interested in writing Regency Romances. Because Rachel does it so well! I love the fact that her Regencies all have humor. That just makes it for me :)

 

 

So several of us are hosting a huge blog hop in Rachel's honor, giving away prizes, and basically giving Rachel a big cyber high-five :)

 

I'll be giving away two ebooks of my Regency Romance, "Rescued by a Duke" Just leave me a comment here, along with your email addy to be in the contest for my giveaway :)

Garrett Rothchild Cantlebury, the 5th Duke of Ravensworth, is shocked to discover a woman trapped in his abandoned well. The place that holds reminders of horrible loss for him. Determined to save the poor girl, he pushes those thoughts aside, refusing to dwell on them. But the rescued damsel in distress ends up making him face a darker truth. One that threatens both their futures.

Can Sasha and Garrett put family tragedy behind them and find love together?

Thanksgiving Blog Hop

I am thankful!! There are so many things I could list, but for this blog hop, they've asked for five. So here goes. I am thankful for...

1. God's love. Without Him, I wouldn't even be here.
2. My husband. He's my best friend!
3. My family. My parents live in the same town I do, but my siblings are all scattered around the country. Even so, we remain very close.
4. My three cats. They are my babies, full of love and purrs, especially when I've had a bad day.
5. The gift of writing. It's such a wonderful outlet for creativity and imagination. How else could a person express such crazy plot themes and get away with it?

And finally, I'm thankful for my readers. Those wonderful, thoughtful people who take the time to read my words. That means so much, you have no idea!! So, thank you :)

Please take a moment to visit the next stop on the hop!

I'm giving away an ebook copy of "Grin and Barrett". One commenter on this post will win the ebook. The blog hop is today through the 11th. Good luck!

"Grin and Barrett"
Remmie Grin is a self-sufficient dentist who has her life right where she wants it. That is, until handsome, flirty Dr. Victor Barrett moves in next door. He constantly bugs her about selling her practice to him—but she's not budging. How can she convince him to leave her alone when all she really wants him to do is kiss her again?


Excerpt:

Chapter One


Grabbing the sides of the wooden stepladder, Remmie Grin squinted against the bright sunlight. The sign she’d hung in her front window tilted, just a little. Rats. She’d have to climb back up there to straighten it. Did the New Patients Welcome sound too pathetic? Did that sound as desperate as she felt? She’d like to kick the new dentist who was moving in right next door. Hard.

How obnoxious could he be? With all the empty buildings in town, why did Dr. What’s-his-name have to come breathing down her neck? It made her want to spit. She wrinkled her nose. She’d worked her fanny off building her practice. Now she’d have to compete with the new guy. She wanted to claw at his ugly face.

This new dentist wouldn’t know what hit him. When she was through with him, he’d be nothing more than a pile of dirt on the sidewalk. And as for the man’s lawyers, she’d like to take a hunk out of their hide, too. Did they really think that calling her every single day would change her mind about selling her practice to them? Since they’d never revealed the name of the dentist, she’d have to come up with a name on her own. Hmmm. Gargoyle? Tarantula? Nah. Those names were too pretty for someone as repugnant as him. The creep.

“Looks good.”

A deep velvety voice shot tingles down her spine. She turned and stared. A Greek god with ice blue eyes and salt and pepper hair stared back. Oh my. Would he object if she reached up and tousled that perfect hair? Her gaze traveled down to his massive shoulders. The fabric of his sports shirt straining over hard muscles. He must be a stranger in town because she’d never laid eyes on anyone as pretty as him.

“Thanks.” Her breathing became shallow.

“So, you’re taking new patients?”

“Yep.” She crossed her arms. “Why, are you looking for a dentist?” What she wouldn’t give to have him in her dental chair right now. His luscious lips close enough for her to lean down and….

“Not really.”

“Oh.” Drat. She had such dreamy plans for him.

“Just admiring the scenery.”

He turned away from her and headed down the block.

No! She didn’t want him to leave. “Wait, the scenery?” She frowned. It took four seconds for it to sink in that he’d meant her. Yikes. And he’d just walked away? How was that fair? It wasn’t as if she got compliments from handsome men every day of the week. Not even the occasional Tuesday.

She blew out a frustrated breath as she picked up the lightweight stepladder, lugging it back inside her office. She leaned it against her front counter and snapped her hand back. She looked at her palm. A splinter, of course. Picking at the tiny wound only irritated her skin more. Hmmm. Too bad the handsome stranger from the sidewalk hadn’t stayed. She’d gladly let him get out her splinter. Which would involve him holding her hand. Kissing her neck, her face, and her lips. She sighed. But he hadn’t. So, she needed to put on her fuchsia big girl panties and get to work.

The town she lived in was small, so maybe she’d run into him again some time. At the very least, her postal carrier, June, knew everything about everyone. Maybe she would have a clue who the stranger was. If Remmie knew June, she’d have the stranger’s coffee preference, shoe size, and contents of his glove compartment in no time.
