Life Lessons Book 3 - Home Work is now available on Amazon and in KU.

* hurt-comfort, murder-mystery, parenting, trauma, HFN
(This is a lightly-edited rerelease, and the series should be read in order.)

And I have heard from JF Harding that he will be able to complete the series audio this summer with Breaking Cover in June, Home Work in July, and Learning Curve in August. :)

Home Work:
Mac sat on the bed and lifted a foot to tug off his sock. Tony hovered, wanting to speak, wondering if he should at least let the man get comfortable first. Do it now. Before Tony could open his mouth, there was a call from Anna’s room. “Daddy?”

“I’ll see what she wants,” Tony said. “You get those clothes off and into the hamper. Where did you find bars with smokers?”

“One place turns a blind eye in the cold weather.” Mac took a sniff at his sleeve. “Yeah, yuck.”

Tony went to try to mollify their daughter, without success. When he got back to the bedroom, Mac was putting his robe on over bare skin. “Only the real dad will do,” Tony told him.

“Sorry, Tony. I’ll deal with her.”

Tony paced back and forth while he waited for Mac, thinking about their little family. Things were good, but they could be great. Tony always went for great.
When Mac came back, Tony took his arm and seated him on the bed. “She’s settled?”

“I think so.”

“Good.” Tony took a big breath. “Good. So Mac, I think we should get married.”

Mac blinked at him. “What?”

Watch Mac and Tony try to figure out a home and work balance, amid murder and parenting, as life refuses to cut them a break.

And Compensations - Life Lessons 3.5 is now available for the first time on Amazon (and still free on Smashwords.)

I want to tell you about the Rainbow Advent Calendar event I'm in.

I'm delighted to be part of this, which gives readers two new short-story treats every day till Christmas. I'm happy to provide your Advent treat for the afternoon of December 4th : Through All the Years, a short Life Lessons coda.

I asked some folks who had not read the Life Lessons series to check it out, and they said this short Holiday piece reads okay for folks who don't yet know Mac and Tony, as well as for fans of the series.

(Although if you don't like established couples (or even if you do), you can also get a copy of my 2019 short Shooting Star, a meet-cute-if-violently Christmas story, from Prolific Works here: https://claims.prolificworks.com/free...)

I hope you're enjoying all the posts in this event. If you came here to mine directly, you can find all the links for the stories, day by day here:

And you can find my story… Through All the Years here: https://www.kajeharper.com/?page_id=3532

Very best Holiday wishes to all of you - may your days be filled with sweet moments and small pleasures.



I didn't publish a Holiday story this year, but I do have a two part Thanksgiving + Christmas 16K short novella on my website as a free read.

This is a fake-relationship meet-cute hurt-comfort type story. I hope readers enjoy Serendipity The story begins here: https://www.kajeharper.com/?p=3671

And that means my last published book for the year is
Avocado Protection - readers seem to be having fun with this somewhat tropey bodyguard-scientist novella.
