Janice Maynard came to the writing life early! When her third grade short story, “The Princess and the Robbers”, won a red ribbon in a school arts fair, Janice was hooked. She followed up that early success with a more commercial piece in the sixth grade… “Why My Mom Loves To Drink Coke”. No advance for that one, but she won a six-pack of Coke… remember those great little bottles?

In junior high Janice began circulating her work to a wider audience. A dozen or so notebook pages stapled together made the rounds in some particularly boring classes, with the riveting tales carefully hidden behind textbooks.

This book was recommended to me. At first, I wasn’t at all sure it was my kind of read, but soon I was laughing out loud page after page. Well done!

I love reconnecting with characters from other books! But this can definitely be read as a standalone, so no worries. Madden is a sweetheart, and I love Eve’s determination not to hurt people she loves. Such a satisfying story. 💗

I always enjoy the Westcott stories! In this one, a 37-year old widow falls in love with a 28 year old man. Absolutely impossible in the “ton”. But their deep friendship will not be denied as it blossoms into love…

A classic Mary Balogh from late 1989. Beautifully written. A slow burn romance. A sheltered heroine who is unexpectedly “ruined” through no fault of her own and now has two honorable men offering to save her from disgrace.

Toni Blake has written a beautiful book about life and second chances and learning who we are. Though the story addresses some serious themes, the book is not dark at all. It is full of joy and humor and real life…

“he would even suggest such a thing. Her motives for such dedication were unclear, but since she was only a client, he didn’t press for more. As she stood abruptly, he followed suit. “I’ll show you your room,” she said, the words clipped. Larkin followed her back to the foyer and up the stairs, pausing only to grab his bag. The house was furnished with impeccable taste, luxury in every detail, but nothing at all ostentatious. He wondered if she had redone the place after her parents’ deaths, and he suspected she had. Somehow the decor reflected the personality of its owner. When Winnie paused, Larkin followed suit, standing shoulder to shoulder with his hostess as he surveyed the room. He whistled. “Very nice.” This close, he inhaled the scent of honeysuckle again. “I hope you’ll be comfortable. I appreciate your fitting me into your schedule. Let me know if you need anything at all.” There it was again. That pesky, subtle does-she-or-doesn’t-she vibe that made his skin itchy and his sex”
