Woo-hoo! After dealing with a couple of days of various glitches, I'm thrilled to say that Heart of the Season is now finally available at all major online book retailers, including Amazon, where you can purchase it in either Kindle or print. Happy reading! I hope you all enjoy it!

With a little help and a holiday miracle, can a determined animal rescue worker find and save a missing dog in time to give a wounded warrior the Christmas he desperately longs for?

Well, it's finally here! It's Heart of the Season release day – everywhere except Amazon.:-( For any of my readers who were eagerly awaiting it there, I apologize for the delay. As they often do, things occurred that were outside my control. As I mentioned a couple of days ago, my cover designer was unexpectedly out of town, and I had to wait for her return to get the final adjustments done on my print cover. Since Createspace does my Kindle conversion, I couldn't get that started either without it.

My designer, Jaycee Delorenzo, is totally awesome though. As soon as she'd landed back in Arizona and had a little time to rest and catch her breath, she had the cover to me lickety-split.

Well, tomorrow's the big day. Barring any unforeseen circumstances, Heart of the Season will be available at all major online book retailers. At the moment, all is calm with nothing new to report. So the final teaser quote is a sweet and sexy one from Jeannie.

“I've wanted you since the day I opened your first email. I took one look at that picture of you and thought I might spontaneously combust.”

Just two days now until the Heart of the Season release date. The eBook is now available on AllRomance for pre-order. Today's teaser quote is a romantic one from Zach.

“You weren't just touching my body. You touched me in places I didn't know I could feel anymore. You made me feel like a super-hero.”

We're down to just three more days until the Heart of the Season release date. I've successfully uploaded the print file to Createspace, and everything is ready to go there and on Kindle as soon as I get my cover adjustments back from my cover designer. We'll also be working on converting the eBook into all the file formats I need to upload it to AllRomance within the next day or two, so if you shop there, watch for the buy link announcement this weekend. Today, I have a romantic quote from Jeannie for you. It's the first thing she says to Zach when he finally shows her his scars.

“Wow, your eyes are even more beautiful than I thought. They're the color of a stormy sky. I've always liked thunderstorms.”

Four days left until the Heart of the Season release date. Hopefully, everything is still going to come together to meet my Monday, 7/27/15 goal, but unfortunately, a little wrinkle got thrown into my plans today. The print cover needs some minor adjustments that couldn't be completed until the formatting was finished and I had a official page count. Unbeknownst to me, my cover designer is currently in NYC attending RWA's national conference and won't be back until late Sunday. Luckily for me, she works really fast, so I've got my fingers crossed that we'll be able to pull off the print and Kindle releases in one day. In the meantime, here's another fun and sexy quote from Zach to whet your appetite.

“I might be naked, but I'm not half as pretty as you are.”

Only five days left until the official release date of Heart of the Season. The eBook version is now up for pre-order on Barnes & Noble, iTunes, and Kobo. I'm still diligently working on the formatting for the print and Kindle versions, but so far, everything is still on track for 7/27/15. Today's teaser is a funny quote from Jeannie. Still fuming after her run-in with crusty Colonel Armstrong, this is what she tells her friend Jason, when he tries to diplomatically remind her that everyone has a story.

“I already know what that guy's story is. He apparently sat in a cactus patch and still has the spines stuck in his ass.”

Everything is coming together for the 7/27/15 release date of Heart of the Season. While you patiently wait, I thought I'd tease you a bit with quotes from the book. Today I have a romantic quote from Zach. It's what he says to Jeannie after she tells him her ex-boyfriend cheated on her.

“He was an idiot. Nothing else makes sense. A guy would have to be blind not to notice how beautiful you are, and he'd have to be a cold-hearted son of a bitch not to appreciate how gentle and caring you are.”
