Behind The Scenes With A Dyslexic Angel

Image
 Gay with Mindy I am very pleased to introduce Gay N. Lewis, author of the Sarah series, a must have series for anyone who loves books filled with romance, laughter, and that just leave you with a smile on your face when finished. So, without further ado, here’s Gay and Sarah, and make sure to keep reading to find out about the newest release, upcoming novellas, and comment for a chance at free Amazon download of Sarah’s first adventure. Thank you Kim for inviting me to your site.   From time to time, people ask me how the Sarah series came about. I didn’t plan a sequence, but the idea of Sarah has been with me for decades and finally came to life in 2012.   After the first book, I decided Sarah should help others, so I wrote a sequence.   Four books now tell of Sarah’s adventures, and two more are on the way.   How did you get the idea for Sarah?   Several years ago, I read This Present Darkness by Frank E. Peretti and loved it.   Th...

Summer Lovin’ Blog Hop

It seems like love happens when you’re not looking for it, and the timing couldn’t be worse. Marked In Mexico’s Jessica, hasn’t figured out a way to break it off with the arrogant son of a prominent senator, who happens to be her boss at the law firm where she works. Oh, and did I mention her dad is totally pushing for her to marry the cheating scum? So, what’s a girl to do? Take a vacation with her best friend and try to get her priorities in order, which sounds like a great idea until…   An idyllic Caribbean vacation turns deadly when hostages are taken at one of Mexico’s most popular Mayan ruins. The kidnappers believe the abduction will be a simple way to negotiate the release of a colleague from a Texas prison, but matters become complicated and the stakes much higher when they realize one of their hostages is the daughter of a powerful U.S. Senator and another is an ex-Army Ranger, who has no intention of playing by the rules.   I’ll be giving away a $10 Amazon...

Giveaway & Get Hooked on Adventure

Welcome to this week’s Book Hooks blog hop, and the unveiling of my Embrace Adventure luggage tags. Here’s a little teaser from my contemporary international adventure thriller, Shrouded In Secrets . Also, comment with your email address through Thursday, February 20, 2014 and a randomly selected participant will receive a set of luggage tags. Excerpt: Light filled the grotto, temporarily blinding Pete. A thin woman stood, staring at him with haunting green eyes and a confident smirk. Ebony hair pulled back into a tight ponytail, she wore a black thigh-length diving suit that clung to her ample breasts and accentuated the gentle curve of her hips and trim waist. In her hand, she clutched a glistening dagger. But, what kept Pete transfixed were her eyes. The unique and beautiful shade of green didn’t exist in nature. Their almond-shape held ice and evil, and the soulless chill in her stare made him shudder.   Blurb: When the massacre of an unarmed South American...

Better She Love and a FREE Silver Sage Creek Novel

Image
This isn’t just another book release announcement, but rather a chance to get to know author, Judy Baker, and an opportunity to receive a free copy of one of her Silver Sage Creek Novels.   Welcome Judy, thank you for stopping by, and the floor is yours!   JUDY: Thank you Kim for inviting me to announce Book 3 in the Silver Sage Creek novels, Better She Love , now available.   I’ve been intrigue with the West from an early age, maybe because I was a Tennessean and watched westerns on the television with my daddy, especially Rawhide starring Clint Eastwood. Now I enjoy writing historical westerns, except I’d rather have more romance in my western stories than those early shows – like Kevin Costner and Annette Bening in Open Range – love that movie. I do hope you enjoy reading the Silver Sage Creek novels and would love to hear from you. To kick off my new release, I am giving away an ebook of either Better She Die Book One, or Better She Live Book Two to anyo...
