Laura only wants one thing for Christmas, and it’s the deepest darkest secret of her heart. When a mysterious man emerges from a fire in her backyard, can he be the key to unlocking the secret she guards so close?

Endless Possibilities

Read-A-ThonI joined Good Tales for their first semi-annual Good Tales Read-a-thon June 5th on Facebook. The theme for this one was “Endless Possibilities!” It was a lot of fun. Some great authors stopped by each day to shower us with books to slap on our TBR lists and there were many random giveaways for answering random questions. Some of the questions were specific to the book you’re currently reading, while others were get-to-know-you questions.

The theme Endless Possibilities was well-named. I think I was one of a handful of men in a sea of beautiful romance writers (mostly women.) Les Lynam and I were definitely outnumbered and almost jumped ship when they wanted us to take off our shirts! But I made many new friends and gave away two copies of The Wastelanders and even more copies of Black Silence.

I also have a TBR (To Be Read) list of my own if you’d like to check it out here and I plan on adding to it as I read and discover new books.
