A Home Within The Wilderness with Laura Hartley
I don’t know about you, but a cover will determine if I look at a book or not. This one makes me wonder. I like that it creates questions in my mind. What about you? What causes you to pick up a book and read the back cover? Families are forever, but what happens when they’re not? When life gives you lemons you make lemonade, but Elizabeth Greene seems to be acquiring more than her fair share; from her single mother’s death, to infertility, and divorce, left her with few options and a sour attitude.

A Day in the Life of a Writer
Happy Monday! I’m a little late getting this posted today. I had a book spotlight on the calendar, but it didn’t work out. So I have a plan B. Have you ever wondered about the day in the life of a writer? I suspect my day is similar to yours, except I might start working earlier than many of you. My work day generally begins by 6:30 a.m. Yes you read that right. J I post on social media and try to catch up with anything I missed from the night before–I’m not a night person, so I miss a lot of posts that happened while I was sleeping. Since…

Now I wish I’d entered the book into more than this one contest. 🙂 Here’s a little bit about Designing Love, book three in the Sunriver Dreams series. Someone is framing…
