Welcome
A friendly hello and welcome to new subscribers to my mailing list. If you're wondering how you got added to my mailing list, there was a promotion going on through Booksweeps and Ryan Zee in July where part of entering for the giveaway required you to sign up. However, if you do not wish to be on my mailing list, you can unsubscribe below.
Is it fall already?
Golly, where has all the time gone? I've been a busy little bee this past six months. I've released one book after another, and busy promoting.
So here's what's happening
Love, A Second Time Around was released August 26. It is still listed for sale at 99 cents but the sale ends later this week, so if you haven't gotten your copy yet, you may want to do so before the end of the week. Otherwise, the price goes up. Here's the back cover blurb for the book.
They stole five years of his life. Now it’s time to settle the score.
Released from prison after serving five years for a crime he didn’t commit, Dr. Jon Stephenson is left with the task of rebuilding his veterinarian business, finding his son, and bringing those who wronged him to justice.
Not only had the love of Cat Morgan’s life been sent to prison, but prior to his arrest he had broken her heart. Needing a new start, she left town with Jon’s young son. Unknown to Jon, she was pregnant at the time. Now she’s a single mom to two young boys.
She never expected to see Jon again, and now that he’s shown up, demanding the opportunity to provide the father figure his sons need, she finds herself falling for him all over again. Actually, to be honest, she never stopped loving him. But will she ever be able to forgive his past indiscretions, and can they learn to trust each other again?

The Haunted Love Affair
Some time ago I shared with you that I have joined a Common Elements Romance Book opportunity. My book, The Haunted Love Affair is up for pre-order at Kobo. The link is: https://www.kobo.com/us/en/ebook/the-haunted-love-affair. The book is scheduled to be release October 21.
Here's the blurb:
A possessive spirit and sex, behind close doors.
Pamela Parkins accepted a live-in housekeeping job with Dr. Casada and his son, Max in a house built in the 1900s. What she didn’t expect was that the house was haunted by spirits. More specifically, her bedroom.
Dr. Casada didn’t believe in spirits, he has a purely mathematical mind, and there was no room for the paranormal. Right?
Strange things are happening in the house. Things she couldn’t explain. On top of that, she’s fallen for the Doctor. Can they solve the mystery of what is happening? Will she find her happy ever after with the doctor?

About the author....
What's your idea of an ideal vacation?
Renting a one-story cottage in Ireland and spending a month traveling around the country. They have lovely rail travel but I’d also want to rent a car to go to those spots tourists often miss. I suppose I should start writing a series set in Ireland so it would be tax-deductible.
How did you choose the genre you write in?
I believe it chose me. My father used to tell interesting stories about life after my ancestors came to Texas and all the shenanigans in which they were involved. Because of his stories, I was enchanted by the time period after the Civil War and before the turn of the century. At Texas Tech in Lubbock, I had a wonderful professor who thought we should know Southwestern history as part of U.S. history. He lectured on the Southwest each class and I was mesmerized. Between my dad’s tales and that class, I was forever hooked on history of the West.
Do you work with an outline, or just write?
I work with an outline, which is like a road map for a book. I need a story map even if I take detours from the outline. Having the outline helps me a great deal at every part of the story. I’ve tried working without an outline and had to go back and work out the middle. I am in awe of those writers who simply sit down and start their story. I once heard a mystery author say she didn’t know who the guilty person was until the end. Not me. Although I write romance, there is usually a villain in the book. I know the villain and his motivation before I start the story.

Bio...
Through a crazy twist of fate, Caroline Clemmons was not born on a Texas ranch. To compensate for this illogical error, she writes about handsome cowboys, feisty ranch women, and scheming villains in a tiny office her family calls her pink cave. She and her Hero live in North Central Texas cowboy country where they ride herd on their dog and three rescued indoor cats as well as providing nourishment outdoors for squirrels, birds, and other critters.
The over fifty titles she has created in her pink cave have made her an Amazon bestselling author and won several awards. She writes sweet to sensual romances about the West, both historical and contemporary as well as time travel and mystery. Her series include the Kincaids, McClintocks, Stone Mountain Texas, Bride Brigade, Texas Time Travel, Texas Caprock Tales, Loving A Rancher, and Pearson Grove as well as numerous single titles and contributions to multi-author sets. When she’s not writing, she loves spending time with her family, reading her friends’ books, lunching with friends, browsing antique malls, checking Facebook, and taking the occasional nap.
