Holidaze!

Anyone else feeling the daze that comes with fall holidays, one after the other? Then top it off with #NanoWriMo2021 (or in my case, I opted for #NanoRebel) all November? Ahh…Well, time to cut to the chase.

It’s Giveaway time!

Woot! I do enjoy giving stuff away. This month I’m teaming up with ten other authors across genres (memoir, mystery, romance, women’s fiction, and fantasy) to giveaway a bunch of e-books! How to enter? Easy peasy:

What else have I been up to? Besides writing and researching and the usual marketing gauntlet, I’ve been working the craft and book fair circuit, meeting lots of local folks, and happily introducing new readers to my books, photo cards, and homemade jams! And yes, I did 2 events in one day because I have coffee running through these veins!

Be back in the new year!

Slainte.

A HUNDRED LIES - is here!

It’s release day. All the planning, nerves, to-do list a mile long…and…

It’s here!

Ah. Time to breathe.

And celebrate!

Since my brain is numb and eyes fried from all the anticipation and work, I’m keeping it short. A Hundred Lies, the final book in my historical romance trilogy, is here. Check it out. Read. Review! Oh, how I love reviews. Now to go have a second cupcake since it is my kiddo’s birthday, too! Extra special day of celebrating. I am not big on selfies, but here you go.

Here I am with all 3 books from the Hundred Trilogy. A Hundred Breaths (February 2019), A Hundred Kisses (May 2017), and A Hundred Lies (August 2020). Yes, yes, I did publish the trilogy a wee out of order, but don’t despair! Now they are all here - and yes, you can read just one of them or read out of order, too. Whatever you want. Don’t forget to check out the EXTRAS page, too with a map, glossary, and family lineage chart.

Psst.

THANK YOU! :)

Sending out so much gratitude to all who have helped bring this trilogy to life! And to print. Many thanks to my husband, my editor, my writing bud Lorraine (L. Ryan Storms), fellow authors from The Wild Rose Press and Women’s Fiction Writers Association as well as my writers fellowship group, and last but never least, my children for their patience while I have carved out a corner of their playroom as my own (but wait….just this week I moved my desk to my bedroom!).

Best and kindest regards,

Jean

A Touch of Vermont, a Touch of Romance: Deerbourne Inn Series Releases!

I’m excited to announce that the first book released in the new Deerbourne Inn series by The Wild Rose Press just came out this month (October 2018). With one book under my belt, and two more full-length novels releasing in early 2019, I also jumped on board with this series of shorter stories/novellas that take place in the quaint fictional town of Willow Springs, Vermont. It’s hypothetical location is near the town of Warren, VT, so after doing some research in the Mad River Valley, I jumped in! What a fun one this was to write!

Stay tuned as I share each book in the series as they release.

First up: By Reservation Only by Barbara Edwards.

From Barbara:

By Reservation Only is Book One in the Deerbourne Inn Series, an ongoing saga about the people who visit or live at the Inn. The stories vary from contemporary romance to historical romance, a ghost story and a mystery. And that’s only the start…

I wrote this story because the chief editors asked me to contribute the first and last books for the series. My editors recommended me and I'm so proud and grateful! The basic idea was theirs but they gave me full rein to create the town and my characters.

I love Vermont. The area is wonderful to visit and the residents are friendly.

What did I learn? My son has been to the lake I referenced to fish. He recommends the trout fishing there.

And something you may not know about me: I'm married to a retired police sergeant. He reads anything I include about law-enforcement and corrects errors. Nice. :) I look forward to reading all the books in the series.
