Happy Times at BLC

Some of my fondest memories are of the RT Book Lovers Convention. I was so sad when it stopped and also so happy that the Book Lovers Con filled the empty space left by RT’s demise. I’ve had such fun there and at the last convention I was able to bring my daughter and we had a blast! I’m going to be at the 2025 Book Lovers Con in Las Vegas along with some friends and can’t wait for it! Today’s throwback is from an earlier BLC. I was having fun with some of my friends and hope they’ll be at the 2025 event as well. If you’re interested in finding out more, please visit https://bookloverscon.com/. P.S. Only 33 days until the release of KILLER IN THE KENNEL, the next stand-alone book in the South Beach Security K-9 Division series. Grab your copy today at https://amzn.to/40gP72I.

Please Welcome Tina Radcliff

I am so excited to have Tina Radcliff with me today! Tina is a fellow Harlequin author who is celebrating 15 years of publishing and the release of her 20th Love Inspired romance! Thanks for visiting with us today!

Thank you to Caridad for hosting me today.

I’m celebrating the release of my 20th book with Love Inspired TODAY!

The Cowboy’s Forgotten Love: Book 4 of the Lazy M Ranch series.

After an accident, rodeo rider Lucas Morgan is shocked to discover his memories of the last six months are gone. He remembers his best friend, Harper Reilly, but recent events are a blur—like the fact he’s opening a rodeo school with her…and who he bought an engagement ring for. With Luc under strict orders to rest and not stress, Harper can’t tell him about the kiss they shared or the feelings that blossomed—and with big career decisions to make, she fears they’ve missed their chance. Is it too late to fall in love all over again?
On a personal note, this was such a fun book to write because Luc is the family joker. But with his heart on the line, I had a chance to dig deeper into his personality. Plus, the end of the series meant I could share the famous cinnamon roll recipe that is mentioned in all four books. Find it on my website. https://www.tinaradcliffe.com/

Tina is sharing one copy of The Cowboy’s Forgotten Love with a reader- a print copy (US) or ebook (international). Just visit Caridad’s Facebook Fan Page or Instagram profile in order to enter!

This or That: Heels or Sneakers

Today’s This or That choice isn’t a hard one for me. If I ever had to choose between being dressed up in heels or comfy casual in sneakers, the sneakers win hands down. In fact, I own way more sneakers than I do heels. But I do have my work sneakers and my dressier sneakers, LOL! What about you? Heels or sneakers? P.S. Jessica Russo, the heroine in THE FAMILY SHE NEVER MET, is definitely a sneaker kind of woman although she loves to dress up on occasion. Especially when she’s around her grandmother’s handsome right-hand man Luis. Grab your copy for FREE now on Kindle Unlimited at https://amzn.to/4hbvtuV.

Serene Saturday Vibes

Every night after dinner, weather permitting, my hubby and I stroll down to the boardwalk to see the ocean’s mood. Whether gray and stormy or bright and calm, I love seeing what’s happening. The other day it was just so beautiful and serene that I had to take a picture. The moon was bright even though it was dusk, the ocean was relatively smooth, and the sky was that lovely mix of pink and orange. I’ll leave you with that photo for some lovely Saturday vibes! P.S. If you love some Jersey Shore vibes, check out ONE SUMMER NIGHT, specially priced at 99 cents. Grab your copy today at https://amzn.to/48a7GHH.

Happy Mets Moment

Many years ago, my daughter and I were able to go to a division playoff game. Twice. The first time we were already in the stadium when they decided to not play on account of rain. We trudged home and had to come back a couple of days later. The game went late. It was almost midnight when the Mets finally lost. Sad face. Luckily, we made it to our train which was the last one for the night. We’re rooting for our Mets again and hope they can come back and win the National Division Championship and hopefully, the World Series. It’s been way too long! P.S. If you love sports romances, especially spicy baseball ones, grab your copy of ROOKIE OF THE YEAR at https://amzn.to/4h1N08K. I think you’ll love this story about a talented rookie and his older trainer.
