Blame Game update—and a preorder bonus
Jan 06, 2026 5:16 pm
Hi friends,
If you’ve been looking forward to The Sugar Creek Blame Game, I want to share a quick update—and some good reading options in the meantime.
I’ve moved the release date from February 5th to March 5th. This gives me the extra time needed to make sure the story delivers everything I want it to: emotional depth, satisfying character arcs, and a romance that truly earns its ending. I believe this book will be better for the wait, and I never want to rush a story you’re trusting me with.
The good news? You can still pre-order The Sugar Creek Blame Game for half price. Right now, it’s only $2.99, but it will go up to $4.99 after release on March 5th. If you enjoy pre-ordering, this is the best way to grab it at the lowest price, and it will automatically be delivered to your Kindle on release day.
While you’re waiting, I wanted to share a couple of romances by fellow authors that might help fill your TBR. (See below.)
Thank you, truly, for your patience and for being part of this journey with me. I’m so excited to share this story with you soon—and I can’t wait for you to step into Sugar Creek again.
More soon,
River
This movie role is her last chance at a second act. But a stalker forces her to flee to a small town where a sheriff threatens to steal her heart.
The Sheriff of Willow Creek is a clean, later-in-life, opposites-attract romance with a little bit of mystery and suspense. If you like small-town romance with a western setting like the novels of Janie Crouch and Regan Black, you’ll love The Sheriff of Willow Creek.
