<b><span style="font-size: large;">HAPPY NEW YEAR, DEAR FRIENDS!! </span></b></div>
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">I'm breathing a sigh of relief looking at a brand new year with lots of possibilities for new adventures, travel, writer's conferences (I'll be in Atlanta for the <a href="https://rtconvention.com/" target="_blank">RT Booklover's Convention</a> in May as well as the <a href="http://www.ldstorymakers.com/" target="_blank">LDStorymakers conference</a> in Provo, Utah - also in May), and new books! </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEguB714Csj0ZoBMtsApNfrlcJsGLJ3Dmr6qxw1H8dGsOUnjzKhr-P5ZM3tRloOqSGoGS6YUIEmy80tVfufWkJ16RIJC9291_vtXZ44TdQsr5IdjPF_S-gLJAZeGRN7PDqBtdjNW/s1600/New+year+2017_3.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEguB714Csj0ZoBMtsApNfrlcJsGLJ3Dmr6qxw1H8dGsOUnjzKhr-P5ZM3tRloOqSGoGS6YUIEmy80tVfufWkJ16RIJC9291_vtXZ44TdQsr5IdjPF_S-gLJAZeGRN7PDqBtdjNW/s400/New+year+2017_3.jpg" width="400" /></a></span></div>
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<br /><span style="font-size: large;">What books are you looking forward to this year? I'm hoping to catch up on a long
over-due stack. I buy books like crazy all year long and I never cracked most of them open due to an intense year with deadlines and family crises, my mother's terrible Stage 4 cancer and mini stroke, as well as my sons' employment and family challenges--they all live with us! </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Plus we undertook a partial house remodel on a 30-year-old house. I barely got carpet in (to replace the 20 year-old yucky stuff), my Christmas decorations up, gifts bought and wrapped, before family from out of state descended. 11 people in the house for 10 days meant constant cooking and dishes - and runs to the grocery store! It was still fun and there was lots of talking and games and movies to enjoy, too. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Now I have great news! </span>
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: large;"> If you've been wanting to read the FORBIDDEN trilogy now is the PERFECT time.</span> Harpercollins has put the first book on Kindle/Nook/iTunes for only $1.99 - wowza! </span><br /><a href="https://www.amazon.com/Forbidden-Kimberley-Griffiths-Little-ebook/dp/B00ICMJM3E/ref=sr_1_sc_1?s=digital-text&ie=UTF8&qid=1394738299&sr=1-1-spell&keywords=forbidden%2C+kimberley+griffithslittle" target="_blank"><span style="font-size: large;">Grab it here by clicking this link.</span></a><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">I
love the holiday season - the sparkling lights, the music, the gifts,
eating goodies, Christmas caroling, lighting luminarias here in New
Mexico (our neighborhood lights thousands every year!) parties, friends,
family, my kiddos, and snuggling with a book by the fire. What's your
favorite part of December? It's hard to choose! </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">I
also love the acts of charity and giving that happen as well and I hope
we can continue to spread love and peace and goodwill all through the
year. </span><br />

<b><i>Destiny Came Knocking</i> by Cindy Roland Anderson</b><br />
When Piper Jensen’s dog has a litter of puppies that aren’t
anything like their purebred mother, she immediately suspects the
culprit responsible for the mishap is her neighbor’s derelict dog.
Seeking restitution, Piper confronts the owner, Gabe Wesson, a single
father of two children that likes to keep to himself. She isn’t prepared
for Gabe to be so handsome, nor so disagreeable, and is irritated by
his demands for a paternity test to prove his dog is the sire. As she
and Gabe try to work things out, they both fight a growing attraction
neither one of them want. But when Piper finds her heart falling in love
with his children, it might be the catalyst that tips the scale towards
a destiny she never dreamed possible.<br />
<br />
<b><i>Starlight Kisses</i> by Jeanette Lewis</b><br />
Mariah Lacoste has come to Snow Valley to help her cousin Amy
revive Artisan's Knack, a boutique on Main Street that has definitely
seen better days. Yeah, the timing might not be great -- a major
overhaul of the store plus maid of honor duties for Amy's wedding, all
during the worst winter Snow Valley has seen in a decade -- but Mariah
is confident she can handle it. But can she handle Riker Carmichael, the
best man and rumored player, who sets out to steal her heart?<br />
<br />
<b><i>The Light in Your Eyes</i> by Cami Checketts</b><br />
Snow Valley's new pediatric dentist, McCoy Wilson, is in debt and
stress taller than his beat-up Chevy. The last thing he needs is a
beautiful assistant who he's drastically overpaying.<br />
Chanel Horman prays moving to Snow Valley after her husband's
death will give her and her son a start fresher than the snow that never
stops falling. A hunky new boss isn't in the plans, but she'll have to
find some way to work with McCoy without melting at his gentle smiles or
she'll be in trouble deeper than the snow drifts.<br />
<br />
<b><i>The Better Man </i>by Taylor Hart</b><br />
Chase Moon hates weddings, but a guy can't avoid his brother's
marriage so he's got to man up and show up. Autumn Lane has a plan in
life and it doesn't include her ex fiancé or some ex bronc rider
thinking he has to protect her. When Chase and Autumn are forced into
working together, neither of them imagined they’d fly to L.A., end up as
contestants on the Price is Right, or kiss on a rooftop. Too bad her ex
fiancé threatens to sue Chase to get her back. Now Chase is faced with a
choice—trust his instincts or only wish he was the better man.<br />
<br />
<b><i>Unbreak My Heart</i> by Kimberley Montpetit - this one is mine!! :-) </b><br />
Caitlin Webster suffers the worst New Year's of her life when she
discovers her fiancé with his old girlfriend. Her best friend takes her
to see Madame Tallulah, who makes such crazy predictions Caitlin
dismisses them, until she gets a request to go to Snow Valley Montana
and be a midwife for her cousin at the Starry Skies Bed & Breakfast.<br />
<br />
Caitlin finally agrees and finds herself in the snowy wilds of
Montana in an encounter with a big red monster truck careening across
the ice. It’s not the most fortuitous of encounters with contractor
Quentin Hudson, and Caitlin avoids him like the plague. But is Quentin
just a big burly Montana dude—all brawn and no brains—or is there more
to this enigmatic man and his monster truck? Is he the one who will
capture Caitlin’s broken heart and end up saving everyone at the end?<br />
<br />
<b><i>Wedding Fever</i> by Lucy McConnell</b><br />
Cat O’Shae, a Christian romance writer who moved to Snow Valley
with her sister, needs a New Year’s resolution. Her grandpa recommends
she start creating romance <i>off</i> the page. When her eyes lift
from the computer screen, they land on Sam Miller, an unlikely candidate
for a romantic hero, except he sure does look good in a cowboy hat and
he did save her from one mad chicken… Sam might just be what she needs
to start the new year off right.</div>

Super fun book!<span style="font-size: large;">Hi Friends! </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">I cannot believe summer is over! Bah! It's been wild and crazy with travel and deadlines and new book projects, but I got a chance to read a brand new book by my friend, Sherlayn Pratt and here it is! </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Delicious, clean, contemporary romance set in San Francisco about a girl torn between the man she's engaged to and the boy she grew up that she's secretly in love with but can't admit it to herself. Lots of action and romance, plus, interestingly enough, I really enjoyed reading about Esme's job as a PR person for various companies and the jobs of the two men in her life (doctor and fireman). It really fleshed the characters and the story arcs in fresh ways. AND there's a touch of magic with a Cookie Lady that knows which couples are meant to be together when they eat her cookies . . . I won't spoil it, but cool, huh?</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><a href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01L9U3GRS/ref=cm_cr_ryp_prd_ttl_sol_0" target="_blank">KING OF THE FRIEND ZONE</a> is Free on Kindle Unlimited (buy links below) and a $50 cash card giveaway below, too! Read the book's synopsis and an excerpt of a super tense scene from the book and see why Sheralyn is a super fun, super smart person, too, in her picture! She's da bomb. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">And yes, I need to seriously catch up this blog on my own writing life and personal life . . . </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">xo,</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Kimberley</span><br />

<a href="http://www.iamareader.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/08/King-of-the-Friend-Zone.jpg" rel="attachment wp-att-31345"><img alt="King of the Friend Zone" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-31345" src="http://www.iamareader.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/08/King-of-the-Friend-Zone.jpg" height="475" width="307" /></a><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>The King of the Friend Zone by Sheralyn Pratt</b></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Esme Taylor has an amazing fiancé, a lifelong best friend, and a problem.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">The problem stems from the fact that her best friend is named Hunter and, well. . .he’s kind of (totally) hot. It’s hate at first sight when her fiancé, Jon, and Hunter meet. Jon’s convinced that Hunter is in love with Esme, and that Hunter must be out of the picture if their upcoming marriage is to succeed.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Esme thinks Jon is paranoid.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">The truth is, Jon’s not that far off. Hunter is in love with his best friend and always has been. What Jon has wrong, however, is that Hunter never had any plans of ruining Esme’s happily ever after. Hunter wants what’s best for Esme, even if that’s not him.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">When Jon pushes hard to end Esme and Hunter’s friendship, opposition comes from the most unlikely of places. It’s an eccentric lady with a cookie cart who suggests a different solution to Esme’s problem: Hunter and Esme should give each other a chance.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">They’ve both thought of the possibility over the years—of course they have. But with a ring already on Esme’s finger and a heap of hurt feelings and broken trust in the mix, there hasn’t been a worse time to explore the depths of their feelings for each other.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Both Esme and Hunter think it’s time to move on and leave childhood crushes in the past. The question is: Can one woman and the taste of one cookie change their minds?</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"><a href="https://www.amazon.com/King-Friend-Zone-Power-Matchmaker-ebook/dp/B01L9U3GRS?tag=blasttours-20" rel="attachment wp-att-30726"><img alt="amazon" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-30726" src="http://www.iamareader.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/02/amazon.png" height="70" width="300" /></a></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>Excerpt</b></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">While everyone around Hunter ate and drank, Hunter swirled the liquid in his glass and watched his friends and family interact with Jon.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">The man was suave when he wanted to be; Hunter would give him that. He wore the right suits, said the right words, and charmed the right people.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">What a hero.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">He was also several inches shorter than Hunter, which meant Esme fit neatly against his shoulder as they stood and spoke with all their guests. Esme looked so content as she reclined against Jon, and Hunter wasn’t the only one who had noticed. The last person who had commented on Jon and Esme within Hunter’s earshot had called them “two peas in a pod” as if there were awards to be won in the category.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Well, there weren’t.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">In that moment, Hunter was very glad he hadn’t been drinking that night, because otherwise he might have gone so far as announcing that fact to everyone. <i>There are no awards for being two peas in a pod, everyone. Oh, and by the way, you should meet this guy when he isn</i><i>’t trying to impress you. He’s a bit of a prick.</i></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">But, of course, no one wanted to hear that. No one wanted to hear anything from Hunter tonight except for a glowing toast endorsing the golden couple.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">He still hadn’t written anything, although he had googled a generic speech and printed it out. It was in his pocket now, but he hadn’t practiced it and reading the prepackaged speech was pretty much out of the question now, thanks to his dyslexia. Reading on the best of days usually didn’t go that well for Hunter, but when he was seething mad?</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Yeah, that wasn’t happening.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">So he sat and swirled and watched and tried to imagine what in the world he could say that wouldn’t earn him more frowns than his jeans had already earned him.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Then it hit him: Why try? Why not be honest?</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">There wasn’t a face at this party that he hadn’t known for the better part of twenty years—well, except Jon. His smug mug was as new as it was unwelcome in Hunter’s book. But everyone knew Hunter and they’d know if he vomited some fake, glowing speech their direction.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">So why should he?</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Why not be honest?</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">The idea grew on Hunter as the night went on and the praise for Jon became more and more abundant. The clincher was when Jon’s best man stood up and gave a speech that proved he’d probably met Esme all of once, and everyone in attendance nodded and beamed as the guy praised Esme in the most generic of terms.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">According to whatever the best man’s name was, Esme was kind and compassionate and a joy to all those who met her.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Seriously? The guy had clearly never been within earshot of Esme when an ice cream truck passed in July playing Christmas music. That would redefine the guy’s definition of “joy to all those around her.” Yet everyone <i>oooh</i>ed and <i>ahhhh</i>ed and clapped until the guy sat and Jon gave his bestie an appreciative slap on the back with a look that said, <i>Well done</i>.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Then everyone in the future wedding party looked at Hunter expectantly. It was his turn.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">In that moment, Hunter had a choice to make. He could either repeat the same lame puffery the best man had, or he could give the speech that had been building up in him like a sneeze all night.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Be nice now and freak out later, or let it all hang out? That was the question. And one quick glance at Jon’s arrogant face gave Hunter his answer.</span><br />

<div>
<span style="font-size: large;">Some describe Sheralyn as a girl who's been around the block and worked at every shop. This isn't far from the truth. Writing is what she loves most, however. There's a magical power in stepping into new perspectives time and again, and seeing the world through different eyes. Few things increase empathy more than walking in another's shoes for 100,000 words or so. At least that seems to be the trend so far.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">Some random things to know about Sheralyn:</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">* She's a wanderer (geographically)</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">* She can write a novel, but doesn't have the attention span for one page in a journal</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">* She vehemently disagrees with Stephen King's stance that authors should not watch TV</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">* She is pretty much incapable of sleeping before <span class="aBn" data-term="goog_1160436278" tabindex="0"><span class="aQJ">midnight</span></span></span></div>

is finally here! Which means allergies, pink popcorn blossoms on the
trees, walks under the cottonwood trees, AND a new Romance Novel! </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"><b><u>Synopsis: </u></b><i>It's been over a year since Jessica Mason and James Douglas first met
and sparks flew (In RISKING IT ALL FOR LOVE), but now Jessica and James are struggling to make their
long-distance relationship work between New Orleans where Jessica dances
with the local ballet company and Snow Valley, Montana where James is
the new pastor at the small community church.
<br />
<br />When April Murphy, a war widow with a young daughter, shows up in
Snow Valley, James reluctantly begins to wonder if he and Jessica are
really meant to be. April would make the perfect pastor’s wife and he’d
have an instant family and the stability he craves.
<br />
<br />But he can’t get the spitfire Jessica out of his mind and when she
returns to Snow Valley to accept an inheritance, her male ballet partner
in tow, their love takes on a new edge.
</i><br /> </span><br />
<i><b><span style="font-size: large;">Can
Jessica and James make their long-distance relationship work, or do they
allow their hearts to move on and forget the passion they once shared? </span></b></i><br />
<br />
<b><span style="font-size: large;">Grab either title for your Spring Break Reading car/airplane trip for only $2.99 - or get it FREE with Kindle Unlimited! </span></b>

<span style="font-size: large;">I'm
thrilled to share the news that BANISHED (Harpercollins), is out in
bookstores at last, <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Banished-Forbidden-Kimberley-Griffiths-Little/dp/0062195018/ref=pd_sim_14_2?ie=UTF8&dpID=51Ss8PFZEBL&dpSrc=sims&preST=_AC_UL160_SR106%2C160_&refRID=03SKB8KE3TY3C2R4YF9F" target="_blank">Amazon</a>, <a href="http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/banished-kimberley-griffiths-little/1121902238?ean=9780062195012" target="_blank">Barnes & Noble</a>, and wherever books are

on Kindle/Nook or the paperback for only a few bucks. It does end at a
big cliffhanger, but now you can read <a href="http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/banished-kimberley-griffiths-little/1121902238?ean=9780062195036#productInfoTabs" target="_blank">BANISHED</a> immediately. :-)</span></div>
<span style="font-size: large;">
</span>
<span style="font-size: large;">
<b><span style="color: navy;">BOOKLIST gave BANISHED a fabulous review: </span></b><b><span style="color: navy;">"Jayden
achieves almost superhero status here, moving from adventure to
adventure—not even a near-death stoning can stop her. Little's
descriptions of the landscape are evocative in both desolation and in
beauty. Just as good is her pacing, which gets the blood pumping for
both characters and readers. Far more than a bridge book, this will
heighten anticipation for a no-doubt exciting conclusion."</span></b></span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br /></div>
<span style="font-size: large;">MANY THANKS for entering the giveaway, everyone! I truly LOVED reading your enthusiasm and comments, and I'm so thrilled about this trilogy and hope you get a chance to read it.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">With the inexpensive Kindle, Nook, and Paperback of FORBIDDEN out now, consider using the book for your Book Club. Here's a marvelous Book Club Guide I created: <a href="http://www.kimberleygriffithslittle.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/Forbidden-Book-Club-Guide.pdf">http://www.kimberleygriffithslittle.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/Forbidden-Book-Club-Guide.pdf</a></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-size: large;">OR request your local library to order FORBIDDEN and BANISHED and then you can read them for FREE! Libraries *will* order books their patrons request and those sales help me to be able to keep writing more books. :-)</span><br />
<b><span style="font-size: large;"><br />
</span></b> <b><span style="font-size: large;">And now for our WINNERS!! The Random Generator chose The 11th and 25th Commenters. </span></b><br />
<b><span style="font-size: large;"><br />
</span></b> <b><span style="font-size: large;">CONGRATULATIONS CJReynolds52 and Mary Preston!!! Very excited for you! </span></b><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br />
</span> <b><span style="font-size: large;">Please email me at kglittle@msn.com with your address and let me know if you'd like a hardcover of FORBIDDEN, a paperback, or a Kindle version. </span></b><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">The last time I posted I was leaving for YALLFest in Charleston where I was part of the YASeries Insiders booth and did several library and high school events there and in North Carolina.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">During the travel I was on deadline for Book 3 of the FORBIDDEN trilogy and very, very late getting it finished for my editor at Harper. I worked on the planes, my hotels, B&B's and then at my brother-in-law's house in Arizona during the long Thanksgiving weekend, working until midnight every night.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-size: large;">I wrote 50,000 words during that month of travel and 3 time zones, finally finishing the first 100,000 word draft--a draft I'd struggled mightily with all summer during family crises and a crisis of my own called "MENTAL 3rd Book PSYCH-OUT!" :-)</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">I did a first read-through revision while Christmas shopping, decorating, preparing for company, and then getting super, super sick, but I turned it in! Whew! </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-size: large;">. . . and I have wonderful things to share today! </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-size: large;">FIRST! <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Forbidden-Kimberley-Griffiths-Little-ebook/dp/B00ICMJM3E/ref=tmm_kin_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=1394738299&sr=1-1-spell" target="_blank">FORBIDDEN is only $1.99 on Kindle!</a> Grab yours before BANISHED launches ONE MONTH FROM TODAY!!! </span><br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgtnqfvZJHu8qj9_mgYQ1W14utlrczVchd002Y6Ed9A6fGvewqCzz9pt7d5UGNrMYX7UY1-vt67K1_pE99re1yfe-jI1uhpVvq7VhyphenhyphenH_Ng4NlbCChLanE0SY1Ps8hun3Jrw_eUh/s1600/Forbidden+Cover+Final.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgtnqfvZJHu8qj9_mgYQ1W14utlrczVchd002Y6Ed9A6fGvewqCzz9pt7d5UGNrMYX7UY1-vt67K1_pE99re1yfe-jI1uhpVvq7VhyphenhyphenH_Ng4NlbCChLanE0SY1Ps8hun3Jrw_eUh/s320/Forbidden+Cover+Final.jpg" width="213" /></a></span></div><br />

So you get a sneak peek! (Giveaway Info at the bottom of this post!) </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">BOOKLIST gave BANISHED a fabulous review and I'm so excited for readers to enjoy the next installment of Jayden's story as she travels into the frankincense lands where the Goddess Temples of Sariba are even more dangerous and explosive - and Kadesh's life as prince of this mysterious land is not all that it seems. New characters and adventures and heartache as Horeb follows Jayden along the 2,000 mile trek into the deadly desert along the Red Sea to capture her and claim her for his own--with an army of Assyrians, their long-time enemies. Romance and danger abound. I've included a teaser graphic of the first line of the book below. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br />

<span style="font-size: large;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-size: large;">Can life really turn on a dime, a missed bus—or a stuck pastry shop door?</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-size: large;">Chloe Dillard's life has always been complicated. Her mother is a neurotic romance novelist and her boyfriend, Mathew, has been pressuring her to go "all the way".</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-size: large;">But after The Worst Night of Her Life, Chloe escapes on her Senior Class trip to the swoon-worthy city of Paris which takes her mind off her troubles—temporarily. On the final leg of her dream trip, Chloe squeezes in one final run for a last-minute box of decadent pastries. Add a broken shop door, subtract a broken four-inch heel from her cute strappy sandals, and Chloe ends up one stuck girl on the bakery shop floor with a sprained ankle.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-size: large;">Rescued by the shop owner’s dreamy son with chocolate-syrup eyes, the beautiful city of Paris suddenly becomes Chloe’s personal secret adventure. And even though Jean-Paul, the oh-so-kind La Patisserie shop boy is the gentlemanly guy Chloe has always dreamed of, even he has a girlfriend.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-size: large;">The police are tracking her down as a run-away, Mom’s having a nervous breakdown over her daughter’s “disappearance”, and Chloe’s just trying to have a Happily-Ever-After even as her dreams with Matt are swirling down the drain. What’s a girl to do in the most romantic city in the world?</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">To protect her sons from the mistakes of her past, Brinlee Trapper escapes to a secluded mountain home. But there are dangers lurking in the mountains she has never encountered. The little family is saved from injury by Jed, a mysterious hunter. Brinlee is drawn to him, but she worries about his involvement with a peaceful commune hidden deep in the mountains behind her property.</span></div>

When it comes time to choose, she learns that both men have secrets that could shatter her fledgling trust in men and the wrong decision could leave more than her heart exposed to danger.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">Aislynn is accustomed to watching for the enemy. Her parents instructed her from the time she was young to look for people with the signs: greater than normal strength, eyes that can glow green, and the ability to jump long distances. Over the years, Aislynn has come to view her parents' fears as quirks-things that get in the way of having a normal high school life. When Aislynn's mother dies under suspicious conditions, her father doubles his restrictions. But all his precautions can't stop the boy with glowing green eyes from finding Aislynn. She realizes too late she's been drafted into an ancient Egyptian war, whether she's prepared or not.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">Lexi Court spent seven years traveling the world, living the nomadic Broadway life, in an attempt to outrun the broken heart Nick Rivers gave her. Now, there’s nowhere left to go.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;">When she accepted a position as a high school drama teacher in Las Vegas, Lexi hoped to get over Nick, find a nice guy, and settle down. But what should be a quiet summer gets turned upside down when Lexi's best friend, Taffy, drafts her to be an emergency replacement coach on a televised vocal competition.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;">Feeling out of her league among the other three celebrity coaches, Lexi fights for the most promising contestants to be on her team. One note from a single voice shatters her summer. Nick unexpectedly auditions and joins Lexi's team. With her vocal crush on him raging as strong as ever, she has nowhere to run from Nick’s dreamy looks or siren voice.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;">Lexi has no doubt that Nick can win the competition. The question is does he want to win her heart as well or will he damage it beyond repair?</span></div>

<div>
<span style="font-size: large;">WRITER’S BLOCK, NIBBLED NAILS, PLAGIARISM, OH MY! AND DID I MENTION ROMANCE? Life for Adda Sinclaire, New York Times best-selling author and historical romance writer extraordinaire, reads more like a country song than a breathless, bodice-bursting affair. For starters, she has no romance in her own life. That might have something to do with the fact that her husband—correction, ex-husband—ran off with Stick Woman, whom everyone knew would never be more than a mid-list author anyway. To add insult to injury (and another verse to the country song), her ex not only took their dog but gave it to Stick Woman. If that isn't enough, Adda has come down with a horrible case of writer's block, finds herself gifted with a Bible that is determined to speak to her, and is the unwitting target of a romance cover model's misdirected advances. Just when she catches her breath—and quite possibly the eye of a certain fabulously good-looking man (ahem…her new editor)—her arch-nemesis gives the pot one final stir.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Spy by Night</i></b> by Jordan McCollum</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;">After watching her parents’ marriage crash and burn, CIA operative Talia Reynolds doesn’t believe in “happily ever afters.” Besides, her job entails eighty-hour weeks, juggling a dozen covers and disguises, and tracking down a dangerous Russian spy ring. She hardly has time for romantic entanglements, even if she could let her guard down enough to get close to anyone.But all the rules she lives by could be broken when she meets aerospace engineer Danny Fluker.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;">Danny moved to Canada for a great job — and a chance to start over after a bad breakup. Dating definitely isn’t in his plans . . . until beautiful and enigmatic Talia throws a perfect storm right in his flight path. When he catches a glimpse of the real woman behind her façade, he has to get to know her better.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;">Talia has to find a Russian spymaster before he figures out she’s not who she claims, and failing to keep her two lives separate in the process could mean the death of more than just her budding relationship. Danny has to decide if a future with Talia — and facing the past — is worth the risk of getting hurt again. If they can break through the barriers keeping them apart (and avoid a major international catastrophe), they just might have a chance at being happy together.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Saving Grace</i></b> by Michele Paige Holmes</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;">From #2 Amazon Bestselling Historical Romance Author and Whitney Award Winner, Michele Paige Holmes, comes SAVING GRACE, a regency romance from the Hearthfire Romance series: </span></div>
<div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;">After the death of her grandfather, the Duke of Salisbury, Grace Thatcher wants nothing more than to live quietly in the country with her younger siblings. Her father’s debts thwart those plans, and to protect her sister, Helen, Grace must marry a man of her father’s choosing. </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;">As each suitor proves less than desirable, Grace comes up with clever schemes, causing each to reject her. While staying at the mysterious Sutherland Hall, a middle-of-the-night mishap sends Grace into the arms of a stranger, Nicholas Sutherland—and provides inspiration for her grandest plan yet—one that will leave her reputation in tatters yet free both her and Helen from all possibility of marriage. </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;">Too late Grace regrets her rash actions when her father’s last choice, Mr. Samuel Preston, proves to be a gentleman and a friend. But Samuel is the sworn enemy of Nicholas Sutherland, the man responsible for her “ruin.” Now instead of being free, Grace is caught between two men—each with his own agenda. </span></div>

I'm lucky, lucky, lucky that Harpercollins paid for cover shoot with a real model and a real photographer and then the art dept created such stunning covers with beautiful, oriental trim and backgrounds. Here's book 1 and 2 together! (And Book 3 is just as fabulous - golly, I can't wait to share that next year!) </span><br />

<span class="a-size-base review-text" style="font-size: large;">First off, the cover
is simply stunning. I could stare at it all day. The story is
mesmerizing, the world is a unique fantasy, and the characters were
interesting and emotionally involving. I loved Eyelet and her family as

the second book in the trilogy!</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">Even in a land of eternal twilight, secrets can’t stay in the dark forever.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Seventeen-year-old
Eyelet Elsworth has only one hope left: finding her late father’s most
prized invention, the Illuminator. It’s been missing since the day of
the mysterious flash—a day that saw the sun wiped out forever over
England.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">But living in darkness is nothing new to Eyelet. She’s
hidden her secret affliction all of her life—a life that would be in
danger if superstitious townspeople ever guessed the truth. And after
her mother is accused and executed for a crime that she didn’t commit,
the now-orphaned Eyelet has no choice but to track down the machine that
was created with the sole purpose of being her cure.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Alone and on
the run, she finally discovers the Illuminator—only to see a young man
hauling it off. Determined to follow the thief and recover the machine,
she ventures into the deepest, darkest, most dangerous part of her
twisted world.</span><br />

I write YA, New Adult, and Women’s Fiction. I love strong heroines, despise whiny sidekicks, and adore a good story about a triumphant underdog. I love to read, write, paint (walls and paper) and plan cool writing events for cool writers (check out niagarawritersretreatandconference (dot) com.) I have a love/hate relationship with chocolate, grammar, and technology. I prefer creating things to cleaning things, and baking to cooking and believe laughter is a one-stop-shop solution to all that ails you. I also firmly believe ELO’s Mr. Blue Sky can improve even the worst day. And if that doesn’t work, there’s always Ellen Degeneres. You will always find a purple wall (or two) in my house (perhaps even a door) and a hidden passageway that leads to a mystery room. (Okay, so you won’t find a hidden passageway but a girl can dream, can’t she?) Oh, and tea. There will always be tea. I love specialty teas…and collecting special teacups from which to drink them. (See collection below.)</div>

In my former life, I was a teacher (both grade school and college – long story, don’t ask) and more recently, I’ve been a graduate of Ellen Hopkin’s Nevada Mentor Program and a student of James Scott Bell, Christopher Vogler and Don Maass. An excerpt from Lumière earned me the 2012 Don Maass Break Out Novel Intensive Scholarship.</div>

Known for my edgy, rule-breaking, Tim Burton-esque style of writing, I’m often affectionately referred to as the Quentin Tarantino of YA among friends in writing circles.</div>

She has worked in marketing for Cedar Fort publisher and has published several contemporary mysteries. She's smart, fun, and is very savvy about the publishing world, having run many campaigns for lots of authors. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"><a href="http://sheralynpratt.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Sheralyn</a> and I also took a road trip to Taos for a writer's retreat with several other local writer authors freinds. We spent three days talking and brainstorming and writing - and eating. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">I'm very excited to share her brand new book today! Coincidentally, I just returned from the (now) annual retreat in Taos this past weekend and read THE KISS THAT LAUNCHED 1,000 GIFS while I was snuggled in my Taos bed while it rained. (I'll post some gorgeous pictures of the New Mexico mountains and blooming cactus tomorrow). </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">I love this cover! I love the title, and I really enjoyed the story. The synopsis says it all. So if you like fun, clean, romantic comedies, <a href="http://www.amhttp//www.amazon.com/Kiss-That-Launched-000-Gifs-ebook/dp/B00ZONLBVK/ref=sr_1_1?s=digital-text&ie=UTF8&qid=1436748368&sr=1-1&keywords=the+kiss+that+launched+1+000+giftsazon.com/Kiss-That-Launched-000-Gifs-ebook/dp/B00ZONLBVK/ref=sr_1_1?s=digital-text&ie=UTF8&qid=1436748368&sr=1-1&keywords=the+kiss+that+launched+1+000+gifts" target="_blank">grab this for your Kindle now for only $3.99</a></span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;"><u><b>The Kiss That Launched 1,000 Gifs by Sheralyn Pratt</b></u></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Each weekday from 2:00-4:00 p.m., Grace and Ashton cohost Battle of the Sexes, a radio program arguing the he-said/she-said issues of the day. Their fiery debates often have listeners wondering if there’s more to their relationship than just talk, even though Grace has been dating Phillip, Mr. Tall, Dark, and Perfect, since long before she ever met Ashton Miller.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Yet when news comes that Battle of the Sexes is on the bubble for cancellation, Grace and Ashton need to step up their efforts to engage their audience to keep the show alive. When a charity organization approaches them and proposes that the two of them kiss for a fund raiser, Grace and Ash agree to kiss for a good cause. A kiss is just a kiss, right?</span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>Author Sheralyn Pratt</b></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Sheralyn's first job was as a karate instructor, which taught her that practice does not make perfect; practice makes habit--good or bad. Martial arts also taught Sheralyn that a master is simply a person who can effortlessly do all the actions a beginner finds difficult or maybe even impossible.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Sheralyn has worked in many fields throughout her life, but her 12 years as a karate instructor have shaped how she does everything, including writing and mentoring. She likes to keep things light and fun, but she's also aware that life is journey and that if you're going to buy a book, your life should be better for it.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">So, fiction or nonfiction, know that each of Sheralyn's books are designed to take you to a new place. Maybe that book is designed to help you escape for a few hours, or maybe it's a book designed to teach you a new skill. Either way, Sheralyn hopes it's unforgettable...in a good way. ;)</span><br />

is chock full of wonderful recipes for your slow cooker. Traditionally,
home chefs think of the slow cooker as a winter appliance, but there
are many wonderful recipes for those summer months too. Try the Island

<div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><i>Catching Caytie</i> by Amazon Top Seller Cindy Roland Anderson</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;">On the night Caytie Holbrook intends to break up with her cheating boyfriend, he blindsides her by announcing their engagement at a dinner party. When Caytie discovers her father is in on the scheme, she runs away from her home in Beverly Hills to hide out at her uncle’s ranch in Snow Valley, Montana. While Snow Valley is a beautiful place, Caytie only plans to stay until her twenty-fifth birthday when she’ll inherit a trust fund her grandmother left her, allowing her to pursue her dream to move to Italy. That is until she meets Jace McAllister, an incredibly sexy—although somewhat grumpy—cowboy who threatens to disrupt her plans.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><i>Tin Foil Tiaras</i> by Amazon Top Seller Jeanette Lewis</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;">Cameron Elliott has come to Snow Valley to coach Annalisa Drake in the Miss Snow Valley pageant, and prove to her demanding boss that she deserves a place at the prestigious Westbrooke Agency. But Annalisa’s handsome and protective big brother, Kyle, is determined to keep his sister from becoming a reluctant beauty queen. As Cameron tries to win Kyle over, Kyle insists some things are more valuable than a title and as crazy as it sounds, Cameron might just believe him.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><i>A Touch of Love</i> by Amazon Top Seller Cami Checketts</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;">Annie Stirland has endured a lifetime of teasing, embarrassment, and isolation due to her speech impediment. When irresistible cowboy, Luke Wilson, seems to be falling for her, she’s certain he’s too good to be true. A tragedy involving his ex-girlfriend proves she’s right. What man can resist sheltering someone they once loved? Annie knows she should walk away, but Luke isn’t ready to give her up.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><i>First Love</i> by Amazon Top Seller Taylor Hart </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;">Janet Snow doesn’t expect to get caught in a full-blown make out session at her brother’s wedding. Especially not with Michael Hamilton, the boy she’d written off ten years ago. Even though they both agree to no complications, Janet's not sure they can stick to it given their past. After a trip to the hot springs, a helicopter ride, and a proposal, even the most cautious single mother would start to wonder if true love really is just about the timing. Now Janet has to make a choice—play it safe or trust that her first love could also be her last. </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><i>Romancing Rebecca </i>by Amazon Top Seller, Kimberley Montpetit</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;">Rebecca Dash loved spending her teen summers swooning over Jane Austen and helping her aunt at the Starry Skies Bed & Breakfast in Snow Valley. But as a recent college grad, she’d rather write sappy romance novels than go out with guys that make her a nervous wreck. When a team of fire-fighters set up camp on the lawns of the B&B and Captain Wade catches her eye, Becca soon learns that there’s more to a happily-ever-after than a flirty fireman with muscles the size of the Montana hills.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><i>Love in Light and Shadow</i> by Amazon Top Seller Lucy McConnell</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;">Mercedes O'Shay has sworn off gorgeous men because they have a tendency to break her heart. When she meets her new neighbor, Chet Bauer, she immediately puts him in the Do Not Date category based on his well-defined muscles and stunning blue eyes. But the more Mercedes learns about the cowboy who reads classics and forges iron, the more she realizes the heart doesn't see in black and white; it sees light and shadows.</span></div>
