Secret Cravings Publishing Blog Hop August 24th - 25th




Welcome to Secret Cravings Publishing Blog Hop.  It's closing in the end of the summer.  The kids will be back in school, now it is mom's turn to buy something for herself.  Back in the day, when my kids were home during the summer, I never had a chance to curl up with a book.  By ten o'clock, I was dead to the world.  These days, if I'm not writing a love story, I am reading one.

The summer is my favorite time of the year.  I love sitting on the beach writing and reading.  Last summer I edited Mystical Wonders - Circle of Friends and Second Chances.  This summer I got a late start because of Hurricane Sandy.  But I was able to write and do edits on book 4 - Survival.

Next months, the third in the series - The Right Call Will be released.  Circle of Friends and Second Chances are both available electronically.  Circle of Friends is now available in paperback if you don't have a kindle, nook or like to read via a PDF file.

                Blurb Mystical Wonders - Circle of Friends

     Madison Morina, college professor, meets Sal at the college’s pep rally.  They hit it off, but Madison still has her doubts regarding their relationship.
     Shari Stafford, a clairvoyant, hairdresser, finds love when she hires a carpenter to do renovations on her house. She has a special gift of reading minds.
     Private Investigator Cassie Scott has an on and off relationship with Dennis.  When family secrets are revealed, her life is changed forever.
     Bad boy Angelo Esposito sweeps Fay Odina off her feet.  He has a dead wife and an ex-wife, along with a secret past and an agenda. Angelo finds his perfect mark in Fay, who owns the family Vintage Clothing Shop.
     Despite her friends’ warnings that she is in imminent danger, she runs off and marries Angelo.   It’s up to the girls to juggle their own relationships and dig deeper into Angelo’s past.  
Four friends, four lives intertwined together. 

Blurb Mystical Wonders - Second Changes 

 
     Madison, Shari and Cassie play a major role in protecting Fay, while digging into Angelo’s past.  Shari still can’t channel into Angelo’s mind, leading the women to believe he has something to hide.
     A reunion with an old love puts Madison’s relationship with Sal to the test, causing her to reevaluate her life.  While family secrets continue to be exposed, Cassie’s life spirals out of control. Both women will be forced to make life changing decisions.
     Having gained Fay’s trust, Angelo is ready to move forward with his plan no matter what the consequences.
     Cassie seeks Shari’s help on a case.  While they uncover pieces of the puzzle, they get closer to the truth about Angelo’s past. Madison, Shari and Cassie come together, racing against time, to save Fay from a disastrous fate.

     Four friends, four lives intertwined together, setting the stage for second chances. 


 My favorite thing to do in the summer is to sit on the beach (with sunscreen) and enjoy the beauty nature has to offer us.


 Tell me what your favorite thing to do during summer is and leave me your email address to be entered to win a copy of Book 1 - Circle of Friends.  I will be giving away to copies.

    I live in the American South. My favorite thing to do in the summer is sit inside in the air conditioning--away from the heat, humidity, mosquitoes, and tourists! I sometimes enjoy hitting the local farmer's markets to get the freshest tastes of summer.

    I love hanging out with my kids at the swimming pool or taking them on vacation to amusement parks. And I'm just as relieved when they go back to school, ha ha!

    Hi Karen--that looks like a great beach--I just got in from mine (it's across the street). Favorite thing in summer? Swimming, hands down. I hate to sweat. :) M. S.

    Well, my favorite thing to do is also to hang out at the beach but because I live in AZ, it's not quite that near :) I do just love to get snuggled on my couch and read.

Black Friday Blog Hop

Welcome to the Black Friday Blog Hop. I am not a Black Friday Shopper.  You ask why?  Because I was on the other side of the door. I worked at Toys R Us for five years.  And I worked every Black Friday.  I would spend Thanksgiving with my family, and then rush home to try to get a few hours sleep before going to work at 3:30 AM in the morning. I'd get to work and fight with the crowds to get through the exit door into the store.  By 4:00 AM the customers are crushed against the front door, some their noses against the glass.  Electronics and the hottest dolls are on the top of everyone's list.  Despite the complete mayhem, I must admit it was one of favorite days of the year to work, along with Christmas Eve. In my eyes, the main theme of all the Black Friday mayhem is love, getting the best deals to make our family, friends and love ones happy. Now you want to talk about love, I am giving away a copy your choice Roses or The Boardwalk . ...
