Of Heather and Thistle is a slow-burn, heartfelt romance about second chances, self-discovery, and the unexpected places we find home. After a childhood shaped by loss and betrayal - a father who drowned his grief in liquor and a best friend who shattered her trust - Heather Mackenzie Campbell has spent years keeping her heart guarded and her roots shallow. So when she inherits her family's crumbling Scottish estate, Glenoran House, she sees it as nothing more than a burden. The plan is simple: fix it up, sell it, and leave Scotland behind for good.

 

But Glenoran isn't just a relic of the past. Its creaking walls whisper history and forgotten secrets of a past that refuses to stay buried. And then there's Flynn, the rugged, maddeningly charming contractor who seems determined to remind her that some things, some places, some people, are worth holding onto.

 

As Heather unearths hidden letters, lost artifacts, and the story of an ancestor who may have concealed something far more valuable than heirlooms, she realizes she's standing at a crossroads. She can keep running, return to the safety of the life she left behind, or she can stay and finally face all she's been avoiding - including how Flynn makes her feel.

 

But some things can't stay hidden forever, and the closer she gets to the truth, the harder it becomes to ignore what her heart has known all along.

It’s here, the stunning cover for WILDFLOWERS & WHISKEY by Sara McClaflin, coming November 1! An age gap, a grumpy boss, and the sunshine who melts him.

Preorder https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DV46SD5Y

WILL BE AVAILABLE IN KINDLE UNLIMITED

The first thing you need to know about Beckett Harrington? Trouble in a three thousand dollar suit.

The next? He’s my new boss.

I run The Dutch Wall—Onyx Hotel’s most exclusive bar. My bar. My rules. I’ve kept it perfect without a Harrington anywhere near it.

Then he walked back into Vegas, and suddenly I was twenty-one again—blurting out how much I loved him, and breaking when he turned me down.

I swore I’d never make that mistake twice.

One night, too much tequila, and a wedding chapel later… Beckett Harrington isn’t just the man who rejected me. He’s my husband.

I want out. He doesn’t.

Now I work for him, wear his ring, and pretend none of it matters. But every time he’s close, the line between hating him and wanting him disappears.

But Beckett Harrington has always been a bad idea and unfortunately…I’ve never been good at saying no to those.

He saw me and demanded I be his. The thing was, he couldn’t know I was running away from a monster. I was never mine to be his.

Ahana

I was Indian. He was Italian. He was the don, and smoke and fire his destiny. I was just a girl, a nobody in the world of men. He saw me as a riddle he couldn’t solve. An enigma his inferno couldn’t burn. To him, demanding my surrender was his right. To me, the truth was mine to conceal. My dark burdens were mine to resolve, not his to destroy. Even if it meant sacrificing my heart to walk the righteous path I was bound to.

Vitale

She was made to be mine. I didn’t have to touch her to know she would fit me like a glove. It didn’t matter that she wasn’t right for me or that she came to me consumed by secrets. I’d seek them all out to have her be mine. Even if it meant defying the archaic traditions I was bound to.

Will Vitale find her secrets in time? Will Ahana choose the life she was born into or the one her heart craves?

Love, laughter, and a little kitchen chaos are on the menu in Recipe for Love!

Recipe For Love

A Cat’s Paw Cove Book 24

by Sharon Buchbinder

Genre: Paranormal Romantic Comedy


When it comes to love, all bets are off…

Karmen Artos, a sous chef at Feline Fine Retirement Home, is horrified when two of the residents hijack her kitchen. Worse yet, they’ve created an Internet cooking show that has gone viral. The recipes are revolting, but viewers are wild for 'Grandma's Witchin' Kitchen!'

Devon Winger, a down-on-his-luck showrunner, arrives in Cat's Paw Cove to convince the eccentric elderly Internet stars to take the show to the next level -- a ShowFlix series. The magical stars are tickled at the idea, but Karmen is dead set against revealing the sanctuary for supernaturals to the world.

Book Tour: Dorthy’s Gift

 

 


A modern-day, inspiring story of two women who, when their paths merge discover love, growth and redemption that changes their lives forever. 


Dorothy’s Gift

By Christine C. Schneider

Genre: Women’s Fiction


Dorothy is content with her life as a wedding seamstress. She loves her two adult children, her husband, and her church. She is gifted with the ability to turn heaps of pink satin, lemon-yellow chiffon, and white lace into exquisite gowns. Her clients are beautiful, well-bred, and pay her well. Dorothy doesn’t like change, but even volunteering at the crisis pregnancy center doesn’t shake her peaceful life too much. She does what she can to offer help to women who are dealing with real, life-changing decisions.

Then Bailey wanders into the clinic: angry, abrasive, and hiding the pain of a dark secret.

In a moment of wild compassion, Dorothy convinces her wonderfully supportive husband, Gary, to allow her to invite Bailey to live with them until the baby is born.

Suddenly, Dorothy’s life is overwhelmed by change, and unable to keep up, Dorothy makes some huge errors in judgment. Instead of helping Bailey, everything Dorothy does seems to hurt the girl more.

Only Dorothy’s son, Daniel, begins to recognize Bailey’s potential, as he sees her reach out to support Dorothy when Gary has a heart attack and her daughter has a miscarriage. Meanwhile, Bailey is suffocated by the realization that this wonderful, loving family would not want her if they knew that she had allowed her first child to be aborted.

As Dorothy sews her way through a year of weddings, Bailey challenges Dorothy’s compassion and points out her lukewarm, Christian hypocrisy. The poor girl doesn’t know how to clean her room, run a washing machine, or cut up a cucumber. In addition, Dorothy’s church doesn’t want “people like Bailey” to taint their youth and college group. Worst of all, her son, Daniel, has decided to try to win the heart of Bailey. As the year progresses, Dorothy is confronted with her own ungodly self-centeredness, lack of spiritual depth, and stubborn resistance to changing her plans for herself and her family.

This is the story of the growth of love between a young woman in need of a mother and a mother with enough love for more than her own two children.

What Readers are Saying:


I finished the book because I couldn’t stop reading. I love the story, I love the characters, I love the message, I love the writing style, I love it all. I want to go back so I can better appreciate the character development and story arc. I cried multiple times throughout the book.
—Betty, missionary and missionary wife in Kenya

Carolyn’s Rewrite
The book was hard to put down until it was finished. Dorothy is an empty nester, encouraged by her son to volunteer at a pregnancy center. She does, but struggles some since her gifts to help are not typical to other volunteers. She connects with one woman, Bailey, who has made some bad decisions and needs a role model. The book answers the real question about what is more important in life. –Carolyn, Austria

New Release: Guarding The Shadows

 

★✩★ NEW RELEASE ★✩★

Guarding the Shadows 

Series: Pulsetones Rock Gods

By K.L. Shandwick


*This is part of the Hope Runs Deep Charity Romance Collection*


1-Click on Amazon

https://books2read.com/guardingtheshadows

Kindle Unlimited


Description:

Bodyguard Raff’s love life had two common complications—distance and time.

Issues that would later pose an all-important question for him—Is love always unconditional, or does it sometimes have a shelf life?

There are three firm rules to being a bodyguard. To Protect their primary members from harm at all costs, to mitigate risks to their safety, and to maintain discretion during formal escorting duties.


And there was also a professional obligation to maintain personal boundaries around those they protect, as well as their friends and family.

People may think that guarding a band of rockstars like Screaming Shadows is an exciting, fast-paced lifestyle, but for Raff, but there were also long periods of time where he sat around doing nothing. With time on his hands and the lead singer’s sister, Beth nearby all the time, a close bond formed, one that became an obvious attraction.


Personal and professional responsibilities demanded that Raff distance himself in order to squash any temptation or unwanted advances, because he didn’t want or need the complication of a forbidden romance.


At the end of the tour Raff was patting his back that neither had acted on the sparks of chemistry they’d felt, but it forced Raff to look at the things he valued in life and how he lived his life.


Armed with a plan, Raff headed home to put his personal life in order. But what happened next left him shocked to the core and questioning everything he’d once though as important.

When I landed a new job in a brand-new city, I needed a place to live—fast. Enter: the spare bedroom in a suburbia McMansion with a pool, wine fridge, and stove that probably costs more than my car. Perfect setup, right?


Wrong. My new roommate saw me practically naked on night one.

Then I catch him doing something that rhymes with “disasterbating.”


Half hockey player, half Viking, Turner “Skaggs” Hutton III is the human embodiment of a golden retriever and is off-limitsWhich would be easy if the chemistry between us wasn’t hotter than this blazing Texas sun…


The chemistry? Molten.

He’s sworn off distractions to save his career. I’m focused on building mine and certainly not looking for a boyfriend. But when one too many lapses in judgment and one missed cycle leads to an emergency trip to the pharmacy…
