1531 Entertainment has bargain suggestions for us. Several authors I’ve read and one new to me. The new one first.

Texas Twin Abduction (Cowboy Lawmen Book 1) 

This twin’s past is a blank…

And she might not have a future.

Waking up in a bullet-ridden car with a bag of cash and a deputy insisting she’s his ex-fiancée, Ashlee Taylor has no memory of what happened—or of Lawson Avery. But with her twin missing and someone hunting her down, she must trust him with her life.

Can Lawson save her and her sister—even as Ashlee’s forgotten secrets become an inescapable trap?

******************************

Sean Donovan (The Californians Book 3) 

Caught in his first bank robbery, Sean Donovan is sentenced to hang. But Charlotte Cooper, who needs a blacksmith for her livery, has other ideas.

By law, a woman of good standing in the community can save a man from the gallows by marrying him. Humbled by the dramatic rescue and renewed in his faith, Sean’s heart goes out to his new bride, a woman whose past has prompted her to guard her heart.

Could the talk around town be true? Is the fiercely independent Charlotte falling for Sean Donovan?

*****************************

All She Ever Wanted

All She Ever Wanted is the emotion-packed story of three generations of women: Kathleen, her mother, Eleanor, and her grandmother, Fiona. Each woman left home to escape her family’s past and to start a new life.

Kathleen has been estranged from her family for 35 years, and she is torn between the need to forgive and the urge to forget. Hoping to find answers that will patch the wounds of her tattered heart and salvage her relationship with her daughter, Kathleen embarks on a journey into her family’s mysterious past.

My thoroughly enjoyable current read:

Crime Strikes a Chord (The School of Hard Rocks Mysteries Book 2)

With Christmas fast approaching and Grand Isle Music Conservatory’s big show to oversee, Camryn Paine has plenty to keep her occupied. Add a request to locate a stolen—and possibly cursed—Stradivari violin into the mix, and she fears it’s more than she can handle. After some pressure from her boss, Camryn agrees to investigate.

Things take an alarming turn when a suspect is found dead. Then someone from Camryn’s past appears with a secret that turns her world upside down. Suddenly, her busy Christmas seems perilous as well.

The more clues Camryn uncovers, the deeper she sinks into danger. With the holidays upon her, and both her past and future feeling uncertain, Camryn knows she can’t rest until she has answers. But the cost may be more than she’s willing to pay.

Happy Reading…

…on this cloudy, slightly warmer inter day.

Yesterday I heard a rumor that my grandsons and their dad are going ice-fishing today.

Sitting beside a hole in the ice while the wind blows does not sound like my idea of a good time.

Judging by the number of times they do this each winter, I have to think they must love it.

Brrrr.

I’ll stay home cuddled up in the warm with my book, thanks anyway.

They know better than to even ask 🙂
