Hello friends. Melanie’s Second Chance, book 2 in On the Cape series is now live and available on Amazon. Even though it’s a continuation of Pine Cone Point, it still is a standalone story and can be read on its own too. There are a lot of recurring characters, so it probably would be better to read the series in order, but not totally necessary.

I’ve already got a good story in mind for the third book in the series. As you may have guessed, the next one is going to be about Brooke’s and Melanie’s friend Patty, that quirky but lovable barista who works at the Melbourne Café. I’ve been thinking about this story for quite a while now, and it should be a good one. (Especially if you love hunky European billionaires who are single dads)

With all the post book release stuff I have to do this week, I’ll probably be busy working mostly on marketing for the new book. However, I should start writing book 3 by sometime next week, with a rough release date of sometime in late May or early June. I’ll keep you in the loop with regular updates. I know I haven’t been too diligent with that sort of thing, but I promise I’ll try to do much better. I found a new café across the street that serves delicious cappuccinos. Great place to chill and write an update post when I’m taking a break. Until next time.

Hello friends. Once again, I know it’s been a while since I posted, but I have some good news. The second book in the On the Cape series is complete. I’m not talking about the first draft. The whole thing is written, edited, and ready for upload to Amazon.

All that’s left is formatting the ebook itself, deciding on a cover, taking care of some metadata every book needs to have in place, and it should be for sale very soon. I figure you should be able to read it by this Sunday or Monday afternoon at the very latest.

Like I mentioned in a previous post, this book is about Brooke’s friend Melanie and her boyfriend Jack. I’ve already got the next few books planned out. Sorry if I’m playing it close to the vest, but I’m not sure in which order I want to write them yet. Thanks again for reading, and until next time.

Hello friends. This post is to let you know my new romance titled Pine Cone Point: A Small Town, Feel-Good Romance is now on sale at Amazon. It is also part of kindle select for you kindle unlimited subscribers. This is the first book in the brand new On the Cape Series which I already have at least three more books planned for. Depending on how well the series does, I hope to be adding many more books than that, however.

This one was so much fun for me to write since I know New England and South Florida so well. As you know, I live in South Florida now, but I’m originally from Eastern Massachusetts. My children still live in New England. Can I still call them children? They’re grown men already. In any case, both regions hold a special charm and meaning for me. I hope it shows through in my writing.

Friends, I sincerely hope you have as much fun reading this book as I had writing it. This is not just an author thing I’m saying. I really did have a lot of fun putting this one together. The scenes, sights, and sounds were so vivid as I was typing it out. Once again, thank you so much for reading my books. I love you all. You are the best readers any author can hope for. Now, on to book 2.

Hello friends, I want to wish each and every one of you happy holidays. I hope you’re all enjoying yourselves with your families at this very special time of year. Unfortunately, I’m here down in South Florida by myself this year. I didn’t have the chance to be with my family, but all is good. I decided to get myself away from my keyboard for a couple of days and relax a bit. (Well, all except taking the time to write this short post.)

I know I haven’t posted in a couple of weeks, but I’ve been very busy, hard at work on my new series. Bullets & Doves fans, have no fear. That series is continuing. If you haven’t bought the latest release titled Eagle Rock Canyon, you can do so now.

The new series I’m hard at work writing is a contemporary romance. I’m sure my romance readers will be happy to finally hear that. I know the Pinewood Valley series was very popular with you, and I’ve been getting requests for another series like it. Well, the wait is over. That’s exactly what I’m working on now, and I’ve honestly been surprising myself. The amount of work that I’m producing every day is quite phenomenal.

The first draft of Book 1 is 75% complete, at least that’s what my tracking app tells me. I anticipate a mid-January release date. I’m very excited about it and I honestly can’t wait to get it to you. The next book in Bullets & Doves should come soon after that. Once again, happy holidays to all my readers. You’re the best. Until next time.

Hello friends. I’m glad to announce my latest book in the Bullets & Doves series titled Eagle Rock Canyon is now on sale. I know I’m way behind schedule with this one, but I’ve been busy with marketing responsibilities which has been taking up a good amount of my time in the last month or two.

Anyhow, I’m glad I finished this book and it’s now out there for you to enjoy. Eagle Rock Canyon is the fifth book in the Bullets & Doves series, and like I said in a post earlier on in the year, I still have many, many more ideas for westerns I’d like to bring to you. I know that might not be what my romance readers want to hear, but fear not. I’m working on a new romance series that should be out by Christmas time. (…and another western soon after that.)

As for this latest release, if you loved Hellfire Trail, you’re sure to love Eagle Rock Canyon. You can buy it here on Amazon, or read it for free if you have KindleUnlimited. Have a wonderful day, my friends. Until next time…
