Christmas is a Holiday of the Heart by Lee Ann Sontheimer Murphy

Because we lived in a rambling old Victorian house where the glory days were long past, we hosted a multi-generational Christmas in my childhood. All of the ten rooms were spacious with high ceilings so we brought home a tall Douglas fir each season. Our stockings were literally hung by the fireplace with all the hope of a child and Santa never disappointed. My mom was born on Christmas Day so our annual feast not only had all the classic elements of a holiday meal (turkey, homemade dressing, candied sweet potatoes and more) with a bakery birthday cake for dessert. From my great-grandmother to both sets of grandparents along with aunts, uncles, and cousins, we celebrate the festive season, exchanged gifts, love and laughter. My memories of those days remain sweet and sometimes I long for the joy I knew then as a little girl and wish I could recapture the glorious gatherings of the past. I now celebrate with my own children, now grown, and a few other family members but I live far from my hometown. Most of my remaining family lives there, not here.

In my most recent Christmas release, Homeward Bound Hearts (The Wild Rose Press 2024), the main male character, former saddle bronc rider Jeb Hill, has come home to the farm where he was raised. He longs for an old-fashioned Christmas with all the traditions and trappings. As he recovers from the injury which ended his rodeo career, he falls in love with Shelby Thacker. With Shelby and his children, he seeks a joyful celebration as well as a new life. Of course, Shelby’s not into Christmas which makes things all the more challenging!

Here’s a brief excerpt from the novel:

Six weeks loomed before the holiday. Thanksgiving came first. “I don’t understand what

Christmas has to do with us.”

Shelby sighed and grimaced. “You know, it’s not my favorite holiday. I love the birth of our Savior, but not the commercial stuff. I can’t afford Christmas. It’s better for you if I act like

Scrooge in my own house. I don’t want to ruin your celebration.” She cut her waffle into pieces

and forked one into her mouth.

His heart ached. His woman could be stubborn. Christmas happened to be one thing Shelby had a strong opinion about. Letting him pay for things was another. “There’s no way you could ever ruin my holiday unless you’re not part of it.”

Homeward Bound Hearts is available in paperback and Ebook formats at all major book retailers, online and in some stores as well.

Insta-Coffee Some readers finish a book and move on.

The Collector finishes a book and thinks, What else is there?
The Collector: Readers Who Want to Keep the Story
Collectors experience stories as more than something they read. When they fall in love with a book or fictional world, they want something they can keep, revisit, display, explore, or add to their collection.

For these readers, the story may begin with the book, but it doesn`t have to end there.
Identity
“I read to collect what I love.”

Collectors form attachments not only to stories and characters, but also to the things associated with them.

A signed edition. A special cover. A bonus scene. A map of the world. Character art. A family tree. A novella about a favorite secondary character.

Each offers another way to remain connected to something they already value.
Core Drive: Possession
Possession doesn`t necessarily mean having things for the sake of having things.

For the Collector, ownership can be an expression of emotional investment.

The book they keep on the shelf isn`t simply a book. It represents an experience they loved. Additional material gives that experience permanence and allows them to carry a piece of the fictional world into their own.

Digital extras can serve the same purpose. A downloadable map, exclusive scene, character profile, or collection of lore can become part of the reader`s personal archive. Kayelle Allen

There once was an assassin. One day, he met a fairy and completely lost his head.

Nikodem Wiśniewski had no desire to take over the family business after his father died, but trying to get out of it has brought him every bit of chaos and upset his grandmother’s bones predicted—delivered by a beautiful girl he’s convinced is a fairy…and his fated mate. Charlie Peel isn’t having any of it, positive Nikoś is a superstitious nut. His adamancy she’s a fairy is the last thing she needs to hear after being dumped and losing her job…but with all those tatted muscles and his incredibly sexy Polish accent, she’s totally willing to pretend to be his girlfriend for an hour or two. Especially if the possibility of a real life dark romance is on the table. But the both of them are in for far more than they bargained for. When their plans go sideways, Nikoś has no choice but to take Charlie out of the country to set things right. But chaos and upset follow them at every turn. With enemies nipping at their heels, they’ll have outwit the authorities, the mob, and her mother to break a mysterious curse. Because if they don’t, happily ever after isn’t how their story’s going to end. Felons meets folklore in the big city when a broody assassin falls in love with a fairy in denial. FAIRYTALE, a standalone spicy paranormal mafia romance with lots of laughs by AK Nevermore. BONUS CONTENT! Previously released as a free serial, FairyTale now includes a never-before-seen extended epilogue!

She risked her future for my brother. I’ll risk everything for her.

Maren -- Treating a gunshot wound could cost me my license -- and career. I did it anyway. Saving a biker’s life was supposed to be one reckless decision. I never expected Patch -- the quiet, controlled man who brought him to me -- to become someone I could depend on. Then I discover someone has been using the veterinary clinic where I work for an illegal operation, putting everything I’ve worked for -- and possibly my life -- at risk. Patch says he’ll handle it. I’m beginning to understand exactly what that promise means. And I’m not sure I want to walk away.

Patch -- For twenty years, I’ve made sure my brothers come home alive. Then Freak takes a bullet, our doctor is gone, and my only option is a vet tech with steady hands and enough courage to risk everything to save him. Maren should have walked away from us afterward. Instead, I keep finding reasons to see her. Protect her. Make her problems mine. And when I discover someone has been using her clinic for something dangerous, there’s no question what happens next.

No one touches what’s mine.

WARNING: This book contains violence, gunshot wounds, kidnapping, organized crime, illegal activity, and medical emergencies. It also features an age-gap romance and sexual content. Intended for mature readers.

Jasmine Starling lives by three rules: no dating, no sex, and absolutely no falling in love. But the moment Ryan West—tall, tempting, and unfairly gorgeous—steps into her world, those rules start to crumble fast. One smile warms places inside her that she thought were frozen for good. Ryan teases her, touches the soft spots she hides from everyone else, and wakes up a hunger she’s tried to bury for years. He makes her feel alive again—body, heart, and everything in between.

What begins as innocent sparks swiftly grows into a slow, hot burn they can’t put out. As danger draws nearer and old wounds surface, Jasmine finds herself craving him in ways she swore she never would. Wrangling Ryan is a fierce, steamy outback romance where desire hits hard, trust cuts deep, and one night could never be enough.

Insta-Coffee Halloween Scavenger Hunt

https://bit.ly/SHlaurenfraser

How’s a girl supposed to resist a sexy mountain man? Oh yeah, when he’s your best friend’s brother. Shoot.

As a prima ballerina, I’ve spent my life laser-focused on my career—no roots, no distractions, no mistakes. Love was always something I’d get to later. But with my grandpa’s passing, all that changed. Suddenly I’m back in the small town where I spent my summers, sorting out his estate, and wanting things I have no business thinking about.

I thought I remembered everything about Hollow Peak. I was wrong. Asher Briggs is so much more than I remember. He has this whole mountain man vibe going on with the beard, the broad shoulders and the calloused hands. I mean come on. Are you kidding me? But why does he also have to be kind, capable and protective? How am I supposed to resist that?
Unfortunately he’s still my best friend’s brother. So… yep, off limits. Too bad my hormones didn’t get the memo.

But this is only temporary. My life, my career, my home are all in the city.
I can’t stay.
Right?
