Forget “Christmas in July,” let’s talk CUPID!!

I’m so excited to be part of this exciting eight-author anthology that combines two things we all love: Rescue Animals and Valentine’s Day. Or, as I like to say: seven dogs and a donkey. Guess who’s rescue animal brays instead of barking? Yep, mine.

In upcoming newsletters, I’ll be sharing snippets from all eight stories, along with some great prizes. Even if you’ve never pre-ordered a book in your life, you really need to click on this one because the PREORDER PRICE is just 99¢.
