Happy St. Valentine's DayFeb 14, 2022

Treat yourself and your loved one to something special today. A meal, a foot rub, a funny text. Spread the love, my friends!

Happy Groundhog Day!Feb 2, 2022

Happy Groundhog Day! (Yes, I know I'm repeating myself. That's part of what makes it funny.)

While some people celebrate this as a day to get news of a potentially early spring, we in Winnipeg know we're never going to get it six weeks early. But we can have some fun with it. For me, this day is not complete without Bill Murray and Andie MacDowell and the hilarious film "Groundhog Day." If you haven't seen it yet, you're only 29 years behind the times, and I still recommend it.

It's a brand new start!Jan 1, 2022

I have to tell you that I love January 1st. I'm a firm believer in lists and resolutions and giving yourself a day to reset. (To be fair to the rest of the calendar, I'll also reset myself every quarter and every month. Wipe that slate clean!)

2020's resolutions went out the window with the Covid-19 pandemic. 2021's were very small because it was still raging. I hope that 2022 will be the year I reemerge from my social distanced cocoon and introduce a whole new me to a brand new world.

Who do you want to be in 2022? What are you going to do to make it happen?

Happy New Year!Dec 31, 2021

I'm not going to lie. These last couple years have been rough! Hopefully we are over the hump, and 2022 will be a year of getting fully back into the world while continuing to practice what we've learning about being good neighbours. 

I wish you all the best in the New Year! Start it off with a bang!


Kwanzaa begins todayDec 26, 2021

Today is the first day of Kwanzaa, a weeklong celebration held in the United States that honours African heritage in African-American culture.

To my friends who celebrate it, I hope this Kwanzaa brings you the opportunity to enjoy the blessings of family and community.

Merry ChristmasDec 25, 2021


From my house to yours, I wish you and yours a very merry Christmas. May it be full of light and love.

A quick and sometimes free guide to 2021's Christmas romancesDec 2, 2021


There are a lot of Christmas romances out there – I know, I released two this year – but never fear because I’m here to help!

If you want to restock your “love in the holidays” shelf, here is a convenient list of Christmas romances sorted by price, genre, and type of book! (You’re welcome.)

Canadian Christmas Romances under $5 – See how Canadian authors like me celebrate Christmas! FOR ONE WEEK ONLY! Almost all of these books are set in Canada. I know for certain that we represent Vancouver, British Columbia on the west coast, southern Manitoba, two in Ottawa, Ontario, and a bunch in southern Ontario. We have dragons, LGBTQ+, hockey players, cowboys and more. And they’re all under $5! So check out some authors from north of the border and add some Canadian snow-mance to your life.

Paperbacks: My third North Pole Unlimited Collection is out in print today, but only the first book is listed in this promo. They are great for people who prefer paper books to e-books.

Box sets: But I only bought one book! Christmas romance box sets are a great bang for your buck! And they are a fabulous way to get introduced to new authors who you might also love. (I found one of my favourite authors in box set; I bought it for a series I recognized and now 30 books later, I’ve worn out author #2’s stories.) This promo includes “A KEEPSAKE CHRISTMAS” and at 75¢ a story, you can’t go wrong.

New releases: All these Christmas romances are brand new and just released for the 2021 holiday season. Make sure you’re up to date with your favourite sweet romance writers.

Small-town Christmas – sometimes you just want a book that’s like a Hallmark Christmas movie, with small town communities cheering the latest holiday romance towards a final kiss under the mistletoe.

Free e-books: Another great way to meet new authors. All the Christmas books in this promo are free, but you will have to sign up for an author newsletter to get them. FUN FACT: don’t unsubscribe right away! A lot of authors – me included – offer a free book to new subscribers, so if you stick around, you could score two free books out of the deal and find a new series to read.

Looking for a gift idea? How about North Pole Unlimited romances in print!Dec 1, 2021

All my North Pole Unlimited romances are novellas, which means they are a little too short to print effectively. But now you can get these three collections in paperback, including the most recent - Frank and Ginger. It's the same great North Pole Unlimited romances you've read on your e-reader, but they're now in print. Wouldn't you like to find one of these under the tree on Christmas morning? 

Check your home country's Amazon pages to see if it's available there. UK and Australia, it is for certain.

Collection 1 US and Canada

Collection 2 US and Canada

Collection 3 US and Canada

(Shamrocks and Surprises - US and Canada - and Pumpkins and Promises - US and Canada - are also available in paperback.)
