Hi everyone!
I know we’re in
the middle of winter, but Valentine’s Day is just around the corner. (In fact,
I saw Valentine’s Day candy and cards for sale the day after Christmas!)
Valentine’s Day is all about celebrating love and romance, so why not get in
the mood now?
If you love sweet “first meet” romances,
you don’t want to miss my two-volume contemporary
romance anthology, Cupid’s Schemes.
The diverse stories in Cupid’s Schemes have unique characters, including reporters,
cowboys, a medieval knight, and even a vampire. I grouped the stories by
season (starting with winter), so as you read through each book, you’ll be
following the calendar year. Several stories are holiday-themed
(Valentine’s Day, St. Patrick’s Day, Halloween, Thanksgiving, etc.). And
believe it or not, some of the settings and “first meets” were inspired by true
stories people have told me over the years.
When I wrote the stories, I deliberately left them
open-ended so readers can use their imaginations about where the story and the
characters go from here. I wanted to show how two people meet, feel a
spark of romance, and then leave the rest of the story up to the reader. What
happens next is up to you. I end each story with the characters in good places
with the potential to have a happy-ever-after ending with their new love
interest.
These
feel-good short stories are perfect for a boost of romance whenever or wherever
you need it—and they’re ideal for reading on
electronic devices.
