I have a new contract!!

I am so happy.  Harmonica Joe's Reluctant Bride is now under contract to Victory Tales Press, Western Trail Blazer line.  As soon as I get the cover art I'll post it.  It's tentatively to be released in about 90 days.
Tagline: A haunted house, a trunk and a date with destiny.

I'd like to share the blurb with you though so you know what it's about.

Here ya go:

Joseph Wilding left his prosperous Virginia ranch and his grieving father to live in obscurity and guilt over his brother’s death until he marries Lola instead of Callie McGraw, the woman he abhors but whose life he was attempting to save.



Lola discovers a warp in time in an old trunk when she falls into 1882. She finds herself married to Joe, a stranger shadowed by secrets. Mistaken for Callie McGraw, a thief and a woman of ill repute, Lola finds her life is threatened by a scoundrel who believes she stole his money and only Joe stands between her and death.

With danger threatening all around and secrets keeping them apart, can Joe and Lola find their destiny together or will time and circumstance forever divide them?

 

Happy Valentine's Day

Happy Valentine's to each and everyone of you.  Even though I may be a bit of a cynic when it comes to true and lasting love, there are some of you who have, luckily, had that and I hope you know how lucky you are.  For those of you who haven't found your true love, don't give up, my grandmother married for the 3rd time when she was 73 years old--having outlived her first two husbands. 
For some of you who may be without a spouse or significant other, don't forget your loving family or your sweet, loving pets.  And, if all is said and done and you're completely alone, remember to take care of yourself and love yourself.  Give yourself a heart shaped box of chocolates or enjoy a luxurious scented bath. 
If none of that pleases you, buy some cards and visit some lonely, elderly people in nursing homes and show them your love by volunteering your time to them.  To get some love, you might have to give some love.
Have a wonderful day today.

True Love

Today I'm blogging about True Love at Sarah's Provocative Ponderings over at author, Renee Vincent's place.  I hope you'll come and read what a cynic has to say about love.

Whether you believe in true love or not, I hope you have a very happy Valentines's Day, if not with your true love, then with your family or friends who love you.
