Merry Christmas. Sending you the love and joy of the season.
Merry Christmas. Sending you the love and joy of the season.
I have a fair sized Christmas movie collection. It could be better - I need to pick up "A Charlie Brown Christmas" and a copy of "Miracle on 34th Street" (the original) - but I have a good selection to pick from. But on Christmas Eve, it doesn't matter. The movie of the night is "A Christmas Carol" with Alastair Sim. Good old Scrooge and the Ghosts of Christmases Past, Present, and Future.
I don't know what your Christmas eve traditions are, but I hope you have a holiday movie playing in the background wherever you are.
But don't stay up too late and try to sneak a peek at Santa. Sleep well, and have a wonderful Christmas tomorrow!
I hope all my Jewish friends are enjoying their first night of Hanukkah tonight.
Decker, Joy, Pumpkin, Midnight, Stinky, and Spooky all invite you to pick up a free e-copy of DECKER & JOY. You'll find links for Kindle, Kobo, Nook, and Google Play. You can also borrow it from your library if they have a copy (and if they don't, feel free to request it!)
Get into the holiday season with the first North Pole Unlimited romance and meet the the folks at the company where romance blooms at Christmas time. (It really blooms in book 2, HOLLIS AND IVY, which is set at a flower shop in Whistler, BC).
For the pet-lovers, let me remind you:
Decker & Joy (1) = 4 kittens
Hollis & Ivy (2) = a rescue parrot
Nick & Eve (3) = golden retriever
Ben & Jilly (5) = a puppy AND multiple kittens
I really tried to work a pet into Rudy & Kris, but Kris runs a bakery and there were a lot of health and sanitation concerns. But it does have reindeer!
Happy reading, and if you're an elf and leave a review, I'll put in a good word for you with Santa.
If you're looking for a great deal, here's your chance. I'm putting my entire Hollywood to Olympus series on sale. SCREEN IDOL (Book 1) is free, and the rest of the books in the series are only 99¢ each this week! Grab the whole series here.
I love Christmas romances. I love watching them (I ought to buy stock in the Hallmark channel) and I love reading them.
They aren't hard to find at this time of year, but I'm part of three groups that might make it easier for you.
Check out these groups and click on the covers to learn more about any of the books. You can generally tell from the cover if a book is going to be sweet or sexy, but there is no commitment to check them all out.
MOSTLY SWEET AND A COUPLE SPICY HOLIDAY ROMANCES
I work hard on my book summaries - my "blurbs" - but sometimes they are too long.
Then I have the fun of trying to condense my masterpieces down to a single line or two - the funnier the better.
Here are some of my favourite one-liners from North Pole Unlimited.
If you have any ideas, please hit me up on Twitter or Facebook so I can see them!
I'm having a really difficult time picking only one for my latest Christmas romance, so here are two for BEN AND JILLY.
Which do you like better?
After much laughter while writing it, today I'm releasing BEN AND JILLY upon the world. I hope you all enjoy it as much as I did.
When North Pole Unlimited’s #1 elf turns Scrooge, a new flame and his furry sidekick need to jumpstart her Christmas spirit before it’s too late.
Executive assistant Jilly Lewis has never resented the holidays before, but this year the company’s resident matchmaker and holiday-disaster fixer has learned her family is going to be elsewhere during the most wonderful time of the year.
Ebenezer “Ben” Fredericks is giving up the road for a desk job at North Pole Unlimited. He has lots of things to do as he reorganizes his life in December, but number one on his list is getting Jilly back into the Christmas spirit.
He’ll need to enlist help to put the jingle back in Jilly’s step, but his co-workers at North Pole Unlimited and new neighbours in December are ready to pay back Jilly for her years of spreading Christmas joy everywhere she goes.
Can Ben put the ho-ho-ho back in Jilly’s holidays, or will she find coal in her stocking on Christmas morning? Only Santa knows.
