Happy Cinco de Mato! Although this has become such a big “Mexican” holiday in the U.S., in reality it’s not such a big holiday in Mexico and it’s not Mexican Independence Day. On Cinco de Mayo, the Mexican army beat the French in the city of Puebla and I believe it’s celebrated in that city. Still, let’s celebrate the lovely country of Mexico and its people! While I was working, I had the pleasure of visiting several different Mexican cities and experience their wonderful culture. From Mexico City to Guadalajara and Tequila, I was able to learn a great deal about its history and I also took the time to learn more because it fascinated me. I used what I learned and that experience to write some of my books. In AZTEC GOLD, a paranormal romance, I based the villain on the Aztec gods and also shared a lot about Mexican culture and food as the heroine searches for her missing lover. In THE FIFTH KINGDOM, a romantic suspense, the search is on to find an ancient relic with mystical powers that’s based on the Mexican sun stone, one of the symbols of Mexico. I was lucky to see the sun stone when I visited Mexico City. Both books are available in Kindle Unlimited for free and specially priced! P.S. – Happy Birthday to my fur baby Slate who turns 10 today!
