Last week to play FREE Secret Santa and even win gifts for yourself! #AmReading #Giveaway

How many of your friends will you win a gift for, and what will you win?

Every year, I try to do something special for my readers, but attempting to get the biggest and bestest gift doesn't always work well, since that leaves so many other readers without gifts.

So, this year, I wanted to do more. I decided to give away ONE HUNDRED gifts. And, ALL gifts will be awarded before Monday, December 22, so you and/or your friends will receive by Christmas.

Grand Prize ~ $50 Amazon Gift Card

Runner-up Prizes

Southern Romantic-Suspense Paperback Collection

Creatus Series Paperback Collection

She Belongs to Me Audio Book

And Ninety-Five eBooks!!!

So, here's how it works...

Absolutely NO Purchase is required. All you have to do to unlock the grand prize and the rest of the 99 gifts is to sign up for my newsletter. Many of you are already signed up, so just post your email into the entry, which automatically registers you for the grand prize or the runner-ups.

I know many of you have already read my books, so, I decided to help you play Secret Santa. Of course, if there is one of my books you haven't read, you can ask that the gift be sent to you. Plain and simple, I made a list of my books, and all you have to do is tell me where you want me to send it. Note: even though there are two on sale this week, when your friends receive them on Christmas Morning, they will be back to their regular price of $4.99!

Not sure which of my books you'd like, simply visit my Amazon Author Page.

By the way...if you want to guarantee you or a friend gets an eBook for Christmas, The Library (Where Life Checks Out) is on sale for $0.99 today. Download for yourself or gift to a friend. And, Amazon will allow you to send it Christmas morning!

Sorry, due to Amazon's strict gifting of eBooks, I have to restrict gifts to the US. Of course, I always have a couple free books on all sites, so you don't even have to play to win. Simply click one of my author pages below, and download your free book! If you have questions, please feel free to leave them in the comment section, and I promise you I will answer.

To prologue or not to prologue, that is the question. Readers, please weigh in!

Personally, I love prologues. They get you right into the action whether it was in the past or something exciting that is to come. But that’s exactly why most agents’ blogs I’ve read say not to use them. Paraphrasing…“If you need a prologue, then your story must not be strong enough…” Hmm … well, I like them, and I use them. But I’m curious what readers think, and I’d love you to weigh in. AND, if you have some great examples, please leave the title in the comment section. Now … here’s what I’ve noticed. Plenty of bestselling books have used them, even though they aren’t always called prologues . Same diff in my opinion. My biggest example is ‘Twilight’. If that little blurb wasn’t in the beginning, I don’t think I would have made it through the first chapter. How about movies? I don’t watch a lot. But I’ve started to notice how many have “prologues”. I also don’t have cable, but I have NetFlix, and hubby has just started watching ‘Breaking Bad’. Okay … I...

"I’ll show you things that will take your breath away" Excerpt from LAND OF THE NOONDAY SUN

When two strangers have nothing left but their dreams, they must forge a relationship in Nantahala, North Carolina, a small town known as Land of the Noonday Sun . Excerpt: As soon as he set her on the ground, she heard the waterfall. She gazed at the pounding waters as they fell over the rock and hit the stream below. “Wow, this is … so beautiful and so close, right off the road, near our house … amazing. He smiled. “This is nothing, Cassie, hardly anyone even comes here. I’ll show you some waterfalls and trails over the next few weeks that will take your breath away.” Cassandra couldn’t contain her smile or the feelings rushing through her veins. He wanted to show her his state. It was beautiful she realized, and the thought of discovering it with him made it even more exciting. She was certain he was correct about taking her breath away, but she was also sure it wouldn’t ju st be the wa terfalls. Land of the Noonday Sun is Book Three of t...
