Hey, y'all
-- please note that I've "rated" my books for
sensuality level as follows:
PG -- sexual innuendo, but no
love scenes
PG-13 -- moderately explicit
lovescenes
R -- as hot as this writer makes
'em, which isn't nearly as steamy as this stuff can get
but might still offend your Aunt Tilly unless Aunt Tilly
is a progressive thinker Most of my
backlist is now officially out of print, although you can
easily find copies used on half.com or other online used
book stores. For those titles still available, there are
link buttons to take you directly to Barnes and
Noble.com to order new.

It had taken Sarah Louise
Whitehouse nineyears to get over Dean Parrish, the first
and only boy she'd ever loved. Nine years of devoting all
her energies to getting her veterinary degreeand
establishing her practice in her little rural Alabama
town, of channeling her affections toward her widowed
mother and two sisters, one of whom was young enough to
be her daughter, the other of whom had the gall to go and
get herself engaged to Dean's younger brother.
And now Dean's coming
back to Sweetbranch for the first time since he walked
out on Sarah and their dreams to stand as his brother's
best man. R
Which means Sarah is in
seriously deep do-do.

One New Year's Eve, two
lonely souls share a cup of coffee. . .and more. And
thanks to a defective diaphragm and some overachieving
sperm, they make a baby. Nancy Shapiro certainly doesn't
need to marry the twice-married-and-as-many-times-burned
Rod Braden, who's made it more than clear that the two
teenaged kids he already has are more than enough, thank
you. But it's because of those two kids, for whom he
feels compelled to set an example, that he eventually
talks Nancy into this marriage-for-the-sake of the baby.
. .having no idea his generous, loving, smart-mouthed
bride is about to tear down his emotional walls brick by
crumbling brick. R

With three kids, no money,
and the world's ugliest apartment, Guy Sanford sure
wasn't looking for a fling. Or a nanny, even if he could
have used one. So why was it, whenever he looked into
Elizabeth Louden's cool, wary gaze, he felt as if he'd
come home? After all, it was clear she wasn't the
earth-mother, cookie-baking type. Either. R

When her fledging acting
career crashes and burns, Gwyn Roberts reluctantly
returns to her grandfather's foundering New Hampshire inn
to regroup. The last thing she expects, however, is to
feel a pull toward the old place. . .and a certain Alec
Wainwright, on whom she had a childhood crush a thousand
years before. Her head knows nothing can come of her
feelings, but her heart doesn't listen. Then Alec offers
her a choice she never thought she'd have to make. . . R
(Gotta let y'all in on
something about this book: ASW was one of the last books
Scarlet published before giving up the ghost, and
apparently, little things like, oh, correcting mistakes
weren't high on their list. Seven pages of galley
corrections I made -- including things like an entire
missing page, for crying out loud -- and not one single
correction ever saw the light of day. So if you see some
things that don't make sense, now you know who to blame.
