  I have found a new author to obsess over. I have fallen in love with Diana and her amazing writing.  Diana is the author of the Outlander Series: Outlander, Dragonfly In Amber, Voyager, Drums Of Autumn, Fiery Cross, A Breath Of Snow And Ashes, An Echo In The Bone, and Written In My Own Heart's Blood.  Diana Gabaldon is the author of the award-winning, #1 NYT -bestselling OUTLANDER novels, described by Salon magazine as “the smartest historical sci-fi adventure-romance story ever written by a science Ph.D. with a background in scripting “Scrooge McDuck” comics.” The series is published in 26 countries and 23 languages, and includes a nonfiction (well, relatively) companion volume, THE OUTLANDISH COMPANION , which provides details on the settings, background, characters, research, and writing of the first novels in the series. Gabaldon (it’s pronounced “GAA-bull-dohn”—rhymes with “stone”) has also written several books in a sub-series featuring Lord John Grey (a major mi

SINS OF SEVIN (A standalone) A Contemporary Romance novel New York Times, USA Today and Wall Street Journal Bestselling Author Penelope Ward      RELEASE DATE: September 21, 2015    From the New York Times bestselling author of Stepbrother Dearest , comes a new forbidden STANDALONE romance. What happens when the one you want is the only one you can’t have? My name is Sevin. Homeschooled and sheltered by my ultra-religious family, I was always taught that lust was a sin. Elle was the girl who’d been carefully chosen for me. After a long-distance courtship, I’d be moving into her family’s guesthouse so that we could get to know each other in the months before the wedding. Boundaries were set: no inappropriate touching, no kissing, no sex before marriage. I’d accepted those rules and my fate. Until I met the one I wanted to sin with. That was when restraint became a problem…especially since the one wasn’t Elle. It was her sister, Evangeline. You know what they say about best

Purchase Autumn Rising   Autumn Mahal and Hank Basara know they should stay away from each other. Both recovering from the loss of a mutual friend, and each bearing scars of their own, they know their love would look like a worn cliché, a trite romance novel for teens, some crappy made-for-TV movie languishing on your great aunt’s DVR.  But as summer gives way to September and flirtation leads to something deeper, they learn there are some types of love you cannot run from, no matter how hard you try to flee. Hilarious, heartbreaking and hopeful, Autumn Rising is a novella about the happiness we ruin for ourselves, the truths we can’t hide with a filter, and that elusive and victorious moment when we let love rush in and carry us to the sky.  In a world of constant TMI, prepare to feel a story worth sharing – a story that will stay with you long after the summer fades to autumn. Review Autumn Rising is the perfect follow up to The Summer Remain
