It’s National Love Your Pet Day! I have my fur baby Slate, a feral kitten we rescued, and my grand fur baby Lily, a pitbull mix. Slate is spoiled rotten and Lily is such a loving pup. If you have a pet, please take a moment to share a photo of them and tell me a little bit about them! If you love stories with puppers, check out DEADLY CHASE, a free romantic suspense read featuring my grand fur baby Lily at https://www.harlequin.com/shop/articles/512_deadly-chase.html.

I’ve seen dozens of red robins here and there and I’ve been checking the ground for any signs of my snowdrops! So far none and I don’t have any crocuses planted so that won’t help. I really should plant some of those. They’re so cute. But I did plant nearly 40 daffodil bulbs last fall and can’t wait to see them come up! Just 31 more days until Spring! I can’t wait! P.S. If you want to get a jumpstart on spring (and summer), my beach read ONE SUMMER NIGHT is specially priced at 99 cents at https://amzn.to/3EHkWZE.

I confess that hubby is probably way more romantic than I am. He’s really been the one to think of the nicer Valentine’s Day gifts. Lovely handmade chocolates top my list of the best gifts he gave me. But I think I gave him some longer lasting gifts since I dragged him to the movies and they turned out to be two of his all-time favorite movies: Groundhog Day and Gladiator. What about you? What’s the best Valentine’s Day gift you ever got? P.S. Treat yourself to some romance on Valentine’s Day with some of my 99 cent specially priced books at https://amzn.to/4hxz6uP.
