Review from Coffee Time Romance for The Talisman: This is a wonderful tale, full of action, emotion and a bit mystical at times. Ivan and Moriah each have a silver armband set with amber, an heirloom in their families. They are unlikely soul mates at first, but the author creates a very engrossing love story for them. There are no half measures here at all, […]

Woohoo, I received my rights back from Kennsington for my first two books, Dakota’s Bride and My Angel. In honor of this I am giving away a copy of The Talisman which is the fourth book in the series beginning with Dakota’s Bride. (Actually,there is one before Dakota’s Bride but it isn’t published yet. All you have to do to win is comment on my […]

So…I didn’t post on Sunday after the signing. It was Mother’s Day after all. The month has been busy. The end of the 2008-2009 school year is upon us. (Two more days) Yay! I have two new books of my own out, Allura and The Talisman. Allura is the beginning of a series and The Talisman is the second to last in another series. I […]

I’m looking forward to the May 9th book signing at the Blue Pepper. The Angels, (Genene, Chris K and myself) have all put a lot of work into this event. Rosemary Indra, a debut author will be there signing her book A Wife For Jay Prescott. The event is from 1:00 to 4:00. Hope to see everyone there. I will post picture on Sunday.

Readers Luncheon yesterday in Portland was fun. We had a great speaker, great food, and lots of great readers. I took some pictures of the Valley Romance crew but didn’t think about having someone else take a picture so I could be in one of them. For the first time in three years they had my books. Wow! Thank you Marci, you did a great […]

5 ribbon review from Romance Junkies http://romancejunkiesreviews.com/artman/publish/historical/Allura.shtml Christine Young’s ALLURA is a delightful historical novel full of suspense, lovable characters, humor and a budding romance between two characters determined not to fall in love. Allura and Hunter’s stubborn, determined natures allowed for some interesting scenes as they attempted to get one up on each other. As a modern day woman I felt bad for Allura […]

What is in a review? If it is a good one, it leaves the author feeling great! If it is a bad one…Many different emotions go through my head. I absolutely love my last three reviews, two for Allura which is just out and one for Safari Moon. I couldn’t want anything better. How do you feel about reveiws? (as an author and as a […]

Check out Coffee Time Romance for the first review of Allura: It has mystery, humor and, whew, steamy love scenes! An awesome group of characters make this read very entertaining, from the tough as nails Allura to her meddlesome younger sister, Aiden. There is never a dull moment throughout this book and you will surely not be disappointed. I can only hope that some of […]

Wow, it’s spring vacation again and I have so much to do. In honor of the 12 sisters/cousins in Allura’s household, I have decided to start a new blog. The blog will honor Aidan, the youngest of them all and will feature each relative as thier individual books are released. Since Aidan is already “in love” I wonder if she will marry her soul mate. […]

Allura will be released by awe-struck books next month. This book is the first in a series of twelve books. They were conceived several years ago with the help of my youngest daughter who was in middle school at the time. I cherish these books, in part, because of the wonderful time I had with Jenee. She plotted their horoscopes, gave them physical characteristics, and […]
