Is it only me, or did it seem like spring would never arrive? We got a blast of it this week in Maine. I even went for a walk in shorts and a tank top on Tuesday. When it hits the mid-sixties in March, we northerners make the best of it. Granted, today I'm back in my fuzzy socks, sweats, and sweatshirt. 'Tis the life in my neck of the woods.

Anywho... let's talk about what spring means. Blue skies and budding trees. Daffodils and tulips. New beginnings and fresh starts. Happily ever afters. Okay, I may have added the last one, but it fits, doesn't it?

After the year we've had (and are still having), spring is most needed right now, as are happily ever afters. I may not be able to control the weather (or the pandemic) but I sure as heck can give you a HEA!

You can check out Brooke and Drew's fabulous love story in my latest release, Ten Million Fireflies. Oh! And it's FREE in KU!! Meanwhile, I'm going to dive back into the edits for the second book in this series. I'll be sharing the cover and blurb with you soon, no worries!

Here are some fabulous words readers have said about Ten Million Fireflies. My heart is full!

A heartwarming story, full of love, forgiveness, acceptance, moving forward. This is my new favorite from this author, and I'm looking forward to more books from the other sisters.

"This book just grabbed me from the beginning, tugging at my heart all the way."

"You can never go wrong with a book by Marianne Rice and this first book in her new series Band Of Sisters proves it."

Stay healthy, friends.
