While the rest of you have been decking halls and trimming trees, I’ve been busy putting the finishing touches on Destiny Book 4, HOLLY LANE. And just in case the title didn’t tip you off, it’s a Christmas story – which I’m super excited about! Think snowbound cabin, hot chocolate, sleigh rides, and lots of snuggling (and more, of course!) next to the fireplace. HOLLY LANE will be out next November, in plenty of time for holiday reading, so mark your calendars. (Or just sign up for my book release announcements. : ) )
In addition to working on HOLLY LANE, I’ve been busy in lots of other ways lately, too. I have squeezed in a little tree trimming, along with some holiday baking, get-togethers with friends, and even a couple of booksignings. In mid-November, I met up with good friend Lori Armstrong/Lorelei James for a signing in Lexington, Kentucky. And earlier this month, I took part in a large group holiday-themed booksigning in Cincinnati, where I got to catch up with author buddy Lori Foster among others.
Of course, the REALLY big news is that Destiny Book 3, WHISPER FALLS, comes out on December 28, so the countdown is officially on. And though it will be a few days too late for stocking stuffing, it’ll be right on time for all those bookstore gift cards you’ll be getting for Christmas! : ) 
To add to the countdown fun, on December 16 I’ll be starting “The 12 Days of WHISPER FALLS” on my Facebook page, where each day right up to the book’s release I’ll be sharing tidbits or fun facts about Tessa and Lucky’s story. So if you haven’t already clicked the Like button on my page, now’s the time! Tessa’s story is near and dear to my heart, and Lucky is probably the baddest bad boy I’ve ever written, so I’m thrilled the time has come for this book to hit the shelves.
Meanwhile, I thank you all for your interest in my books and I wish you all a very happy holiday season! Merry Christmas, and may Santa leave lots of books in your stocking!
