NEWSLETTER – Fall 2007 – A New Season and a New
Book!
Writing
News: I’m very excited about the November
release of THE SOLDIER AND THE ROSE, my first novel for Harlequin’s
Everlasting Love series.
If you like books that will stand the test of time, then try
an Everlasting Love. You’re in for a treat. The whole
idea of the series is to explore a couple’s life and
love beyond the wedding. In these novels, “happily ever
after is just the beginning.”
Many of these stories are based on kernels of truth within
our own families. Many stories are set in the cities and towns
where we grew up. In THE SOLDIER AND THE ROSE, Charlie returns
to Brooklyn at the end of WWII and marries the young widow,
Rose, whose first husband was killed in the war. When the story
opens, they are celebrating sixty years together. But the question
remains: who is her true soul-mate? The man she married with
all her heart? Or the man who married her with all of his?
In honor of Veterans’ Day, the two Everlasting releases
in November pay tribute to men and women who’ve defended
their country during wartime. I’m delighted to “share
the stage” with Geri Krotow, the author of A RENDEZVOUS
TO REMEMBER.
Come meet the Everlasting authors at our new blog spot! We
talk about everything – even offer recipes – so
come say hello. Let us know your thoughts about the line and
about life. We talk. Here’s the link.
Another Superromance from me is coming next year. No title
yet so check out my website or sign up for my newsletter which
I’ll send before each new release. I promise not to clutter
your In-Box 
Personal News: I just got back from a fabulous visit with
my youngest son’s family that includes five-month-old
Alexis. Of course, she’s the cutest, most adorable baby
ever born. And she loves Grandma! She likes to eat my face.
We call it kissing. Her four-year-old cousin, Lizzy, is now
taking piano lessons – on a trial basis - because her
big brother, Aaron, already plays. We’ll see how this
experiment works out. I still enjoy the piano myself – my
husband jokes that I’m either at one keyboard or another.
I don’t think you have to be a professional to derive
enjoyment from making music. It’s just fun.
