Happy Holidays! I'm in LA with my mother, my brother, and his fiancée. I'm rereading some favorites so they'll be easy to pick up in between activities. I hope you have some time to relax and enjoy yourself. Maybe read a good book? Bear Bear says you deserve a nap and some cuddles!

Voice recognition mistake of the day from my dictated notes on the upcoming Pride and Prejudice at the Cat Café: “Cheyenne nuts. What's your feet tigers.” I meant to say that “Cheyenne nods” and then Liz will “Watch her feed tigers.” (Cheyenne first appears in the free story Lions and Love at the Cat Café.)

Do you like Christmas or winter themed books this time of year, or something that takes you away from reality? Do you keep it cozy or go for books full of drama and angst? (And by the way, if you need last minute gifts, e-books can be delivered instantly!)

If you like sweet, heartwarming stories and haven't yet read all the cat café novels, check them out! The Furrever Friends Sweet Romance series features the workers and customers at a small-town cat café, and the adorable cats and kittens looking for their forever homes. Each book is a complete story with a happy ending for one couple (and maybe more than one rescued cat).

You can now buy The Furrever Friends Cat Café Sweet Romance Collection (books 1-6) directly from me here! Get six books and stay cozy for hours, or gift them to a friend. You can also hop over to any other retailer from that link.

Or what about some billionaire cowboys? Who wouldn’t want to be a billionaire? Turns out winning the lottery causes as many problems as it solves in the Accidental Billionaire Cowboys sweet romance series. The series is now complete with five books, ending with Mama Ava's story!

Then of course there are the three novels in the Felony Melanie: Sweet Home Alabama romantic comedy series, full of laughs and Southern charm. Visit the Amazon series page for or find the books at other E-book retailers. Get all three books for 15 bucks!

If you're more in the mood for a witty, problem-solving amateur detective, then the Accidental Detective humorous mystery series is for you. Five books are available with number 6 coming January 30.

If you're caught up on that series, you might try my treasure hunting romantic suspense set in the Southwest. Start the series for only 99 cents!

All these books are available in print or as e-books from all the major retailers!

And by the way, my brother Doug (cowriter of the Felony Melanie novels and scriptwriter of the movie Sweet Home Alabama) is also the author of Totally Rad Wormhole: Two nerds from the eighties accidentally open a wormhole to today, go to their high school reunion, and meet their future selves. Horrified at what they’ve become, they set out to change their fate. Get the book on Amazon or in a variety of e-book formats on Smashwords.

Plus Doug writes humorous Christian short stories as Jacob Love. Get these in Kindle or paperback from Amazon or see the other ebook options.

Need some last-minute gifts for children? Check out my books written as Chris Eboch. You can buy an e-book and have it delivered immediately or on a schedule you set. A great option for stocking stuffers!

My Corfu Love Story, by Effrosyni Moschoudi: “Spyri forever lives in the past, haunted by old memories, her family losses having made things worse. But, this summer, it's all about to change as an old love returns into her life and to Corfu, the only place where she always felt truly at home...” This “clean summer holiday romance short read set in Corfu Greece” is well-rated.

Game, Set, MatchMaker: A Sweet Romance, by Evie Sterling: “He’s my best friend’s brother. A tattooed bartender. So not my Mr. Right. I’m the girl who has six planners, a to-do list a mile long, and a master life plan. Parker Manning is my opposite—and now I’m supposed to find him a match. He was America’s favorite men’s tennis pro a few years back, and he still pops up in magazines. Should be easy to find him a wife, right? Wrong. Now I’m stuck in this log cabin with him, pestering him for answers he won’t give. Like… Why does he keep cat treats in his pocket, if he doesn’t even own a cat? I’m a professional matchmaker and I will complete my assignment. But sometimes, even the best-laid plans turn sideways.”
