Hi there, ghost lovers!
Thank you so much for joining me!
My silly cat - her name is Auntie and she is a black, long-haired pavement special - has no social graces. Whenever she sees another cat, she goes into fight-overdrive. So, because she can't behave herself, she gets grounded a lot and has to spend time indoors. I don't want to have to pay the neighbors' vet bills.
But we love her so much, we put up with her bad manners.
Now, without further delay, to the deliciousness for this week.
Roxanne's Ghost and A Freebie
My Roxanne's Ghost trilogy is a nanny-daddy time-travel romance with a very prominent ghost, a complex story of identical twin sisters' love for the same man.
Here is a little teaser:
I traveled to a time that was not my own. I was forced to make a new life for myself, and I met the man of my dreams. But I remembered my husband. I still wanted the best his life without me could bring him, but my twin sister has always been jealous of me, her heart set on what was mine.
To protect my husband and my daughter, I had to somehow distract my husband from my sister's plans for them. That was the only way I could repay him for the pain I caused him.
I put a woman who will be good for him and my troubled little girl in his path...
The rest is up to him.
Book 1, Time Slip, is FREE for the next few days!
The trilogy is available in KU too.
Read to the very last page of the trilogy to get the full effect of this complex story of an identical twin sister's obsession.
You won't regret it.

The Dragon King's Bride
I was prepared for assassins, cunning girls, and magic competitions. But I never considered the King would claim my heart.
The summons from the Dragon King was clear; any woman of age who has never been bedded or wedded must participate in the selection games for Queen consort.
The nobility are cutthroat and won't let anything stand in their way. Serf girls like me are easy pickings for assassins and not considered true competition for the throne.
But when the king's eyes flicked over me, I nearly gasped at what I saw. His bright blue eyes bore into my soul.
Igniting an unquenchable heat.
I thought he'd laugh at my weakness like others. But his touch made me shudder in pleasure instead.
This is all a game to him, and I want to go back to my quiet and peaceful life. So, I insult him, and instead of sending me home, he kept me.
Like a fool, I want him to touch me again.
But I have enough trouble staying alive and keeping my half-fae heritage a secret. Especially since the fae were the cause of the late king's death.
I'm sure the King would kill me if he ever found out.
Am I destined for death? Or will I become his fated Queen?
