BJ DANIELS, CARDWELL RANCH TRESPASSER, April 2013

DELORES FOSSEN, ONE NIGHT STANDOFF, June 2013

SHARING: the William Wallace Monument near Sterling. My daughter and I did a family history trip to Scotland, and we stopped there along the way. 

ELLE JAMES, DEJA VOODOO (Cajun Magic Series), June 2013

SHARING: On an airboat tour in the Louisiana swamps in 2012, this crazy Cajun pulled an alligator out of the water by the tail and asked if anyone wanted to pet it. I did! I loved my trip to the bayous. The people were funny, quirky and full of heart.

DANA MARTON, DEATHTRAP (Broslin Creek #2), June 2013

SHARING: a picture of my baby the day we brought him home. :-)

JULIE MILLER, ASSUMED IDENTITY, June 2013

SHARING: To me, June means the school year is out and summer vacation is on. I've been blessed to take many multi-generational trips across the country with my parents, hubby and son. They're fun to plan--as we try to include something to please each of our tastes, be it something historical, fun & games, gorgeous scenery, great places to eat, and so on.  We all get along well, and have similar, let's-see-where-the-journey-takes-us personalities. Some of our favorite stops have been on impulse, after seeing a sign on the highway or getting a recommendation from a local. It's solid fun family time, and it has been a blessing for my folks and son to be so close and share their life experience and youthful curiosity with each other.  I have more pix than I could possibly share, but this particular one was taken in Springfield, IL, just outside the fabulous Lincoln Presidential Library & Museum. It's my mom and dad in front of one of his favorite stops--the train depot.

ANGI MORGAN, PROTECTING THEIR CHILD, May 2013

SHARING: I love sunsets and some of my favorites have been over the water. This one's at St. Pete's Beach in Florida. The Gulf was in front of us when we experienced some of the best steamed shrimp we've ever eaten. A simple meal from a beach shack we stumbled upon our first night of vacation. We sat at a picnic table, with a perfect view of the gulf, a warm breeze, and a simple warning from the owner to protect your food from the gulls and "please don't feed the birds." 

A great relaxing night that happened by accident. I hope everyone gets to experience a beautiful sunset soon.

AIMEE THURLO, FALCON'S RUN, July 2013

The 50th published novel by Aimee & David Thurlo.

SHARING: I'm really excited about this book. The cover depicts Native American Police Detective Preston Bowman, and Abby a woman of many secrets. Abby opens Sitting Tall Ranch, a place for kids who are victims of illness, poverty, abuse. There, they can forget their troubles for at least a little while and just be kids. Detective Preston Bowman has a gift for sensing danger. Together they make an unbeatable team. 

REBECCA YORK, CARRIE'S PROTECTOR, July 2013

DESPERATE MAGIC, Chronicles of Arandal, July 2013

SHARING: We've been working hard on making our back garden into an oasis. I love to sit on this pallet on the back porch and work, while I listens to the waterfall in the pond. Cats often sit next to mre, taking the air and watching the birds and squirrels.
