NOVEMBER - The Holidays Are Around the Corner

The holidays are around the corner. This is the time when we start thinking of delicious foods, gift-giving, family fun, and merriment. 

November is my favorite holiday with celebration of Thanksgiving when friends and families gather just to enjoy camaraderie and good food. Bring on the turkey, stuffing, sweet potatoes, cranberries and more. This is the time to give thanks for all our blessings of the past year, such as fruitful harvests, safe journeys, excellent health, and other good fortunes we've experienced. 

This month I wish everyone a Happy Thanksgiving, but I'm also spending the month re-introducing my  holiday novellas in the "Musical Christmas Series," which include JUNE ~ The Pianist, ADELENE ~ The Violinist, and LUCY ~ The Clarinetist.  All three novellas are stand-alone works that can be read out of order. They are heartwarming, sweet romances with a hint of mystery and humor to add to the intrigue and charm. If you love holiday stories, please take a peek below at my first book:

JUNE ~ The Pianist

 

Here's the blurb for JUNE ~ The Pianist
which is Book 1 in the Musical Christmas Series
and which is a clean wholesome romance for only $0.99.

A sweet Christmas novella to warm your heart!

     When concert pianist June Westberry inherits her late grandfather’s music shop, she returns to her small hometown in New York to renovate and manage it. But she never expects to clash with the town’s ornery old music teacher, Nettie Jones who demands she find a lost, fifty-year-old holiday musical score.
     Single parent and contractor, Leo Ciaffonni, enjoys restoring old buildings, and the A# Music Shop with its pretty new owner is no exception. When he’s injured, June finds herself caring for Leo and helping his little daughter bake cookies for her class.
     As the holidays close in and the shop’s renovations continue, the problems June tries hard to solve only seem to become more chaotic. A# Sharp Music Shop is broken into. A harvest recital for her new students requires multifaceted planning. And the perpetrator and the lost musical score have not been found.
     Will she be able to find peace and order in her new life this Christmas—and the love she’s always dreamed of?

KEY TO LOVE - Summer Reading and Oldie from the Past

"Love is the master key that opens the gates of happiness," so says Oliver Wendell Holmes. . . and the father of Elise Springer, the main character.  http://www.amazon.com/Key-to-Love-ebook/dp/B00DNO9S8K

KEY TO LOVE is an oldie from the past and a romantic mystery full of snappy, humorous dialogue. You’ll laugh, you’ll cry, and you’ll race against the clock with Elise as she tries to find the person who murdered a state trooper.

The cast of characters include the heroine, Elise Springer, an architect; hero Lucas Fisher who owns a car restoration garage and drives a restored Smokey and the Bandit Trans Am; and Lucas’s little orphaned nephew, Todd, who’s addicted to animal crackers and The Fox and the Hound storybook. 

 

You'll laugh with Elise’s grumpy, but astute father, her wise-cracking brother, Fritz, and a no-nonsense director of Child and Youth Services, Twila Pedmo.

BOOK BLURB:

When architect Elise Springer's father is injured, she immediately leaves San Francisco to care for him. The last person she expects to encounter in her Pennsylvania hometown is her childhood friend, Lucas Fisher. 

Lucas is investigating his brother's mysterious death, and Elise can't resist lending a hand. Lucas longs for the close family ties he never had. He's back in Scranton to set up a classic car restoration business and build a future. The torch he carries for Elise burns brighter than ever, but before he can declare his love, he must obtain the legal rights to adopt his nephew--and prove his brother's death was no accident.

As they unearth clues to find the murderer and a missing stash of money, Elise faces a dilemma. Is her career on the West Coast the key to her happiness, or is it an animal-cracker-eating four-year-old and his handsome uncle instead?
