Love at First Snow…

LOVE AT FIRST SNOW...coming December 2023!

If you’ve known me longer than ten seconds, you know I like nothing better than writing Christmas stories and watching Christmas movies. I’m already recording practically every second of Hallmark and GACs’s “Christmas In July” programming. Ought to keep me busy until, uh, Christmas.

But I’m here today to announce that the next installment to my Hearts Crossing Ranch series over at PelicanBookGroup, LOVE AT FIRST SNOW, will be part of their wonderful CHRISTMAS EXTRAVAGANZA, featuring 24 stories by select authors. I can’t wait to cuddle up with every single one, my impossibly spoiled calico kitty Leigh snug on my lap…

LAFS was an amazingly enjoyable story to write, as it’s set back in 1976. It’s origin story of how Hearts Crossing matriarch Elaine Martin meets the love of her life, Alex Kennedy. While this makes one dozen novellas in this series about the Martin family of Mountain Cove, Colorado, never fear: each book is stand-alone. So…Kennedy? Yet it’s the Martin family? Find out how and why Alex takes his bride’s last name.

I’m thinking…just like “Yellowstone” (love it or hate it LOL…) next year’s Christmas story just might take me back to my original writing roots–the Old West, and how Josephus Martin started the ranch in the first place…

Stay tuned for more deets. And enjoy this lovely summer “Christmas in July” day!
