Voice recognition mistake of the week: “It wouldn’t take Richard long to figure out that Teresa’s passions came from thrift stores.”

That was from the dictated first draft of my fifth and last Accidental Billionaire Cowboy book, which I just got back from my editor. In case you couldn't guess, I meant fashions rather than passions. Though I suppose you could set a romance meet-cute in a thrift store!

In the Accidental Billionaire Cowboys sweet romance series, a Texas ranching family struggles to maintain their privacy and work ethic after an enormous lottery win. Can they build new dreams and find love amidst the chaos? Book 3 releases in April and is up for preorder. A reviewer said of book 1, “What a wonderful book! I loved every word of this book and highly recommend it.”

Who does it better? Panda and Bear Bear demonstrate the Yogiferret pose "half twist with a high five."

Speaking of cats, I appreciate this five-star review of Romance and Rescues at the Cat Café, but I'm not sure I understand it: “Great content loved it. The story was great loved the romance kinda sneezing in for two people finding each other.” A voice recognition mistake, do you think? What could “kinda sneezing in” be instead?
