This has always been one of my favorite stories. Perhaps because it was inspired by an actual dance hall on the Canadian prairies. I just knew that a love story had unfolded in that historic building, but it took me something like eight years to get around to writing the story.

Former Title:  Moonlight Dancer

City girl Charlie Mitchell travels to the Canadian prairies, only to find herself completely out of her element. To make matters worse, she’s attracted to Jason, the practical but appealing rancher next door. He’s brash, confident, and very easy on the eyes! In spite of a bitter breakup with a girl from the city, Jason finds himself falling for Charlie. As the attraction deepens, Charlie learns that her ancestor Charlotte suffered heartbreak right here on the family farm, and she vows to help re-unite Charlotte with the man she’s never stopped loving. A practical man, Jason wants to believe in Charlie’s quest, but he can’t. Can the two lovers from the past prove to Charlie and Jason that love is forever? A delightful modern romance with gentle, ghostly elements.

It Must Be Spring...

... because every spring I take a critical look at my book covers and my fingers itch to change 'em. This year, it's one of my faves that's undergone a small, but hopefully positive transformation.
  The previous cover was lovely, but for some reason people haven't been noticing it. This is a delightful romance, and I hate to see it go unloved, so I created a new cover. Let's hope it draws a bit more attention to this story that has one foot in the present world, and one firmly planted in the prairies of the 1930s, when things were hard, and people went to the local Dance Hall for entertainment. If you choose to read it, I hope you enjoy!



Oh, wait. I almost forgot the commercial.  It's now available on iTunes and Barnes & Noble. Here are all the links:

Sometimes I Surprise Myself

No kidding. I can still do that!

As I mentioned in yesterday’s post, I’d thought that my five books with my former publisher would languish and eventually fade away. I was ready to accept that, albeit reluctantly.

  As a goodbye gesture, I re-read them, just before Amazon’s Montlake Press took them over. And surprise, surprise, these are great story lines! Yes, there are the traditional romantic entanglements, but the stories are fresh and unique. I’m proud of them, and now even moreso, with Montlake’s new covers.  Here are two more:

But Not For Me

Many of us can relate to this story. Erin is a chef, and frankly, a little heavier than she’d like to be. She accepts a new position at a floating fishing lodge on the West Coast of British Columbia. On the way there, the boat she’s traveling in sinks, and she’s stuck with three other people on the beach. I like this one, and am so happy to see it revived.

The Shell Game

I was inspired to write this one when I visited cottage country in Ontario. The Muskokas are famous as boating and cottage country, and my husband grew up in the area. Rebecca inherits a bed and breakfast lodge when her grandmother dies, but her wily grandmother has left a surprise:  She must share it with the man who broke her heart on the night of her school graduation. Fun, light, and ultimately romantic, it’s a great story.

Thank You, Montlake Press

It's been about a year and a half since Amazon acquired my former publisher. To be honest, I hadn't expected that those five books would see the light of day again. Boy! Was I wrong about that.
  As you can imagine, it's been a huge undertaking for Amazon's Montlake division (romance) to get a handle on all those books. As one of their many authors, I requested that they consider creating new covers for my books. Let's be honest, the old covers were some of the worst ever designed.
  Just today, Montlake has completed the new designs and uploaded them to the Amazon sales pages. They've done a great job in branding my books so they're recognizable as being from the same author. Great job, Montlake.
   My worst cover - hands down - was for my last book for that publisher: The Gift. Here's the new cover they gave it. So attractive... and it's actually a scene from the book. I've always liked this story; it takes place just north of where I live now, on a large lake known all over North America for houseboating.
