IT’S RELEASE WEEK FOR BOOK 2
Releasing into KINDLE UNLIMITED on July 25, 2024
AUDIOBOOK PERFORMED BY AVA ERICKSON AND TEDDY HAMILTON
DESCRIPTION:
Rosie Harlow is desperately seeking… well, she’s not sure. A romance would be nice but so would a dinner conversation with her pre-teen son. Too bad her boy is way too busy growing up to pay his mama any attention. Rosie never meant to swear off men and she’s not frigid—you don’t become a single mom at fifteen by being frigid—but this dry spell of hers has gotten out of hand and something must be done.
Enter Amon Parrish. Back in high school Amon was voted most likely to get caught with his pants down. He was a trouble maker. The quintessential bad boy. But twelve years away from home, traveling the world and working with Collin Creed doing super-secret (and somewhat illegal) things, changed all that. These days Amon Parrish is a brand-new, stand-up man.
And, to Rosie’s surprise, a romantic man as well. Because he has decided to court her. And this is not just any ordinary courting, either. It’s… well, a page ripped right out of a bodice ripper.
But everyone in Disciple, West Virginia has a secret in their past.
Even the cheerful, perpetually optimistic, and seemingly innocent, Rosie Harlow.
The Echo on the Water is a swooning plate of small-town fiction served up with a side of spice. It honors the themes of friends to lovers, found family, and is filled with bigger-than-life, morally-grey characters against a backdrop of the weird and wonderful.

(The Echo on the Water won’t be in KU until AMAZON RELEASE DAY, JULY 25)
It’s going to be a crazy few months with new releases because I am releasing a book a month until at least October and still, I will have at least one more before the year is over. So hold on and get ready to read or listen!
THE ECHO ON THE WATER is book 2 in the SACRED TRINITY SERIES which centers around a group of small towns deep in the West Virginia hills. This is a continuing FOREVER SERIES that will not end. Each book is a standalone romance but there is also a continuing story that will span through many books.
Every time I release a book in this series it will come inside a TRILOGY and all three of them will release one month apart. Echo is the second book in the first trilogy. The third book, THE COMFORT IN THE BRAVE, will release next month on August 22.
All the books will be available in KINDLE UNLIMITED, though you can pre-order them on Nook, KOBO, Apple and get them TWO DAYS EARLY. But none of the books will be available to purchase outside of Amazon after this initial release. Regardless of what people think of Kindle Unlimited, I make a very good living on that platform, so I won’t be selling wide all the time unless times change. And these times, they are a changing, so never say never.
THE ECHO ON THE WATER is a homage to love stories from days gone by. It’s a contemporary romance with an OLD-FASHIONED FEEL and our HERO, AMON PARRISH, has returned home after more than a decade away only to discover he’s an old-fashioned man.
He wants to COURT A WOMAN. One woman in particular named ROSIE HARLOW. The town of Disciple, West Virgina’s only single mother. It’s all very fun, and spicy, and there’s quite a bit of angst as well.
Though this is a standalone story, and you can skip around if you want, I will say it once again – THERE IS A CONTINUING MYSTERY that will span MANY BOOKS. How many will it take to answers all the background mysteries? I don’t know. It depends. Maybe 6, maybe 10, maybe 30. So if you don’t like complicated continuing storylines, don’t waste your time here. Because that’s what I write and that’s never gonna change.

Thank you for reading, thank you for reviewing, and BOOK THREE, THE COMFORT IN THE BRAVE, RELEASES AUGUST 22!

Clover Bradley was having the worst day of her life and then she got kidnapped. In her own home. Well, her empty and currently being renovated childhood home on the edge of Disciple, West Virginia and not her former cozy cottage on the grounds of the Dixie Yonder Hotel where she was working and thriving until that very morning. But it still counts and definitely makes her very bad day much worse.
But that’s not even the crazy part. The crazy part is that she’s falling for her kidnapper. A handsome man, if a little morally challenged, who is probably very dangerous and has threatened to kill her half a dozen times over the span of just one day, but what can one do? The attraction is there.
Riggs is just trying his best to stay out of prison. Which seems at odds with his current actions, but need-to-know nuances make all these nonsensical pieces fit. And even though Clover isn’t a model captive—she’s a complainer of the princess variety—he finds himself getting attached. If he hadn’t been forced to kidnap her to save his own hide, he could see a future where the two of them end up together.
So he figures… why not save her life by endangering her some more?
And she figures… well, it’s better than being left to rot in her own basement.
And that’s, of course, when things get interesting.
The Comfort in the Brave is an ironic twist of fate inbred to a really bad decision. It’s a captive romance turned ride-or-die in a crazy escape from Blackberry Hill—but this time Collin Creed isn’t coming to save anyone, he’s looking for revenge.

COMMENT BELOW, ON THIS BLOG ONLY, and tell me WHAT YOUR FAVORITE ROMANCE TROP IS!
TOUCH HER AND DIE is my favorite. I’ve always loved this trope because loyalty is everything and the perfect book boyfriend has his heroine’s back. The trope is even better when she has his too. 🙂
TAKE CARE, BE SAFE, AND I HOPE YOU WIN!
