TRAPPED, Sheppard & Sons Investigations, Book 6:

When an unforgettable night leads to a broken heart, trusting again feels impossible.

After a string of bad luck, Ashley York moves back to her hometown of Weatherford, hoping to get her life back on track. But her bad luck continues when she finds out the man who ghosted her in Vegas is the newest addition to Sheppard & Sons Investigations.

Everything she knew about him was a lie.

Nathan Blaszek can’t forget the vivacious woman he met a year ago in Vegas, and the night he stood her up still haunts him. In more ways than one. Taking a job at a small-town private investigation company seems like the perfect opportunity for a fresh start. Until he hears a sound he never expected to hear again.

What happens in Vegas doesn’t always stay in Vegas.

Nathan wants a second chance with Ashley, but he’ll need to face his demons to win back her trust.
When Ashley disappears, Nathan risks everything to find her, including his new job. But a dangerous game of cat and mouse could destroy their reunion.

Recent Read: Romantic Suspense Flaming Retribution and the Weather here is Flaming Hot!

So let's see what you need to know if you like Romantic Suspense. This book has a little swearing. It's closed door. Almost all of the book, they are catching feelings but not acting on them, so a very slow burn. The MFC has a cat. The MMC is a stripper and a fireman. The main male character is named Skye and the female main character is named Kendall. And in my brain, I kept swapping their genders when I started reading. The Skyes I know are all women, and I know a few guys who are Kendall. So, that's how that happened. If this sounds like a book you'd like to check out, it is available as a ebook on Amazon, and maybe other places. Here is the Amazon link: https://a.co/d/fNrOyp5

 

Recently in addition to very hot weather and high humidity, we got a bunch of rain. This is a patch of mushrooms I saw in a neighbor's yard when I was out for a run.

The Search for a Proper Tagline and a New Release with Strong Sense of Place

This month I'm working on putting together my author website and getting a newsletter going. Did you know that many authors have taglines for their websites?  I didn't, but I do now, and let me tell you, authors are a creative bunch!  So many great taglines that nail their brand. 

I am in awe, and at the same time, I need to come up with my own gem! When I write the Marley Creek series my goal is to write a romance that gives the reader those Hallmark vibes along with some spice. Now the question is, will Hallmark appreciate me using them in my tagline? I'm just a teeny tiny writer in a sea of authors, so maybe it doesn't matter. I don't want to find out after I finish my website and get some fun merch made, so I need to go back to the drawing board.

Here are my rough drafts:

Cozy Romance With A Kick.

Cozy Romance Sprinkled with Some Spice.

Steamy Small Town Romances You'll Stay Home For.

Cozy Comfort Reads.

Cozy Vibes with a Dash Of Spice.

Please let me know your favorite! I need some feedback!

As I mentioned in The Sunday Post, I picked up a new release from Kindle Unlimited. This is the second book in this series. It's set in a town a few hours away from New Orleans and the book is filled with the sights, sounds, and tastes of Southern Louisiana.  Gelly the lead character in this book is a dancer so the book is also filled with many music references. Dance of Love has a HEA for the main characters in this book but has an overarching mystery so it's best read after the first book Learning to Love which is also on Kindle Unlimited. The third and fourth books in the series will be out before the end of the year!  

If you like books with an immersive setting, a light dusting of spice, and romantic suspense, check this series out!

Taken by Eveline Rose

 

Happy Monday! I have a jampacked week to kick off daylight savings time. This is the last week before our primary election in Illinois, and I'll be canvassing today, Thursday, and Friday. Tonight is the monthly Chicago North Romance Writer's group meeting. Wednesday, I'm the host for our local business group meeting. That means on Tuesday I need to cook for the meeting on Wednesday since I sell Tastefully Simple, I'm in charge of the eats. 

Saturday and Sunday I'm doing local craft fairs. We will see how Sunday goes, the craft fair might be empty because many people in my area go to the South Side Irish Parade. It's a big deal and this year it's on St. Patrick's Day. 

I just finished reading Eveline Rose's debut book Taken.  This is the first book in her new series, categorized by Amazon as police romance. If you want to get technical about things, it's a private security romance and is whole-heartedly romantic suspense. It deals with some heavy trauma, so check out the content warning. Taken is a romantic suspense that takes place in a small town.  If you like small-town romance, this might be a nice crossover if you are looking for a crossover book. 

I enjoyed the story and getting introduced to Sheppard & Sons Investigations. Here is the blurb for the book: 

Can their love be real if her name and background are fake?

Meg ~
… Released on parole… Those three words sent me looking for a new town, but I never expected Weatherford, Texas to feel like home. I was getting mom-vibes from my boss and sexy looks from my boss’s son. I was making friends and learning what it felt like to be in a real family, but with every step closer to love and happiness, I risked cracking my mask and revealing my secrets. I wouldn’t repay the Sheppard family’s kindness by endangering their lives.

Jack ~
The second my eyes connected with Meg’s, I knew she was meant to be mine. I also knew she was hiding something. Lucky for her, I spent my entire life being raised, trained, and conditioned to protect. Meg would share when she was ready, and I was patient enough to wait, but I didn't have to. Being a PI made it easy to find out the truth for myself. I was determined to uncover the threat against her and keep her safe.

When Meg learns about his snooping, the betrayal sends her running… right into the duct-tape wielding hands of her worst nightmare. Can Jack reach her in time, or will she have to save herself? More importantly, is their love strong enough to overcome the lies?

This standalone, first in series, slow burn, small town, romantic suspense features an overprotective man and a woman with a hidden identity. They'll get their HEA, but only after redefining what it means to love. The intense action, and Meg's horrifying past, may not be for everyone.
