ANGEL FOR CHRISTMAS — When a dot com billionaire crashes his new sports car into a tree, he wakes up in heaven facing angels Gabriel and Michael. He’s given a chance to redeem his carefree ways by helping an orphanage avoid foreclosure and regain a sound financial picture by midnight on Christmas Eve—or else. To do so, he is sent back to earth as orphanage janitor, Jacob Porter.

After her father died four months ago, child psychologist Suzi Stephens was shocked to learn Serenity Springs Children’s Home and Elementary School faced foreclosure unless she meets a balloon note due January 1. She can’t understand why her late father broke the trust her grandfather had carefully constructed to protect the home. She is afraid the annual gala won’t raise enough money to pay the note much less a year’s operating funds. Trying to do her job plus step into her late father’s shoes has stretched her to her limits.

She’s suspicious of the handsome new janitor, who appears more like he’d be at home as a CEO. Could he be a spy for the developer who covets the children’s home property? Suzi overcomes her distrust enough to allow Jacob’s help raising funds. Working together, their attraction escalates but Jacob has nothing to offer the beautiful redhead. He is scheduled for earthly removal at midnight on December 24.

After a few minutes of conversation with them, the young woman offers Gloria the chance to escape town to a ranch in Texas as a mail order bride. In exchange, Gloria must promise not to divulge her real identity until the couple has eloped and had a honeymoon. Elated at the opportunity, Gloria agrees.

He walked away to protect her, but now he wants her back.

Atlanta’s Finest Series Book 8

by Sharon C. Cooper

Genre: Romantic Suspense 

He walked away to protect her, but now he wants her back.

Personal security specialist Parker Wilcox should be dead. Instead, he’s been hiding in plain sight for years. But when a mishap threatens his cover, he’s terrified his past will bring danger to the lives of those he loves—especially Chelsey Bailey. The only way to protect her is to put distance between them, but how can he live without the only woman who owns his heart?

As a parole officer, Chelsey believes in second chances…for her parolees. Not for Parker—a man who claimed to love her but then dropped her without warning. While she’s trying to bury her pain in work, Parker comes back on the scene, begging to try again. The excuse he gives for abandoning her in the first place is ridiculous. There’s no way he’s some kind of cartel prince on the run from his murderous father. Right?

Parker will never have the life he desires with Chelsey if he doesn’t destroy his father, but will he survive this time around? And will he and Chelsey ever get to have the life they’ve been dreaming of?

*All books in this series can be read as a standalone.

God must hate me. 

Why else would He open up doors for her to get her dream job, then drop Parker dead smack in the middle of her first real assignment? It wasn’t fair. Even more than that, she had to be near the man while he was looking like he had just stepped out of a GQ magazine photo shoot.  

Sometime between last night, when he threatened her date, until now, he must have visited the barber shop. His low fade haircut looked fresh and showed off his natural waves, and his mustache and goatee were perfectly groomed.  

Chelsey had always been drawn to dark chocolate men, and they didn’t come any finer than Parker Wilcox. The man was beautiful, and he had the body to go with it. He always wore his suits fitted, and they showed off his wide shoulders that tapered to his narrowed waist.  

Tonight, though, everything about him was popping, including his muscular biceps pushing against the dark fabric. As her gaze took him in, a deep longing for him burrowed into her and landed dead smack into her chest. 

Damn him! 

“You can not wear that,” Parker ground out, his words and tone jolting her out of her perusal of him. “This is a security assignment, not some…some party! You shouldn’t be going anyway until you’ve had more training.” 

Chelsey stepped further into the kitchen, barely hanging on to her anger. “Clearly you have forgotten that I was once a cop. But why am I even talking to you? You’re not my boss, and in case no one told you, I belong on this detail!”  

His long legs carried him across the room in three steps, and he stopped in front of her. She had opted for dressy wedge-heels since she could run better in them, and they added a few inches to her 5’8” height. Still Parker had a few inches on her. Between his gorgeous eyes that were boring into her, and his enticing woodsy scent, she lost herself in his presence. But then he opened his mouth.  

“No one is going to take you seriously if you’re wearing that and claiming to be a security specialist. Every asshole in that place tonight will be pawing at you like you’re their next meal, and what are you going to do? Like you, Laz and I have a job to do, and we won’t be able to keep an eye on you while protecting our client.” 

Chelsey gritted her teeth, refusing to let his words turn her into a screaming lunatic. But she was seriously tempted to knock him upside his big head with her handbag. The handbag that held one of her weapons. She had another strapped to her inner thigh with a garter holster that was well hidden but easy to reach. 

“Parker, you don’t have to worry about me. Ever. I can take care of myself while also doing my job. So keep your focus on our client and worry about your own damn self.”  

She wanted to ask him who was going to keep the lonely women attending the event from grabbing his gorgeous ass. Because no doubt he’d be luring all the honeys his way tonight. The man was too fine for his own good. 

“And another thing, why do you even care?” she snapped. She wanted to add that he’d given up any right to anything about her, but she kept that thought to herself. 

“Because…” His eyes blazed with anger as his chest heaved. “Because I love you, dammit.” He moved closer. Close enough to kiss, and Chelsey stilled. “And I care because if anything ever happened to you, it would kill me!” he roared and shoved past her before storming out of the room.

AN INTERVIEW WITH SIDNEW GARTON

 By Caroline Clemmons

Dear Readers, please help me welcome today’s guest, Sidney Garton, owner of Garton’s Mercantile in Harrigan Springs, Texas.

He is over six feet tall with brown hair showing a few strands of gray. His piercing ice blue eyes sparkle with mirth and echo his friendly smile. I’d guess his age to be in his late twenties.

He sits across from me.

 CC: Welcome, Mr. Garton. Thank you for agreeing to an interview today.

SG: Please call me Sid. I’m honored to be here, though I’m not sure why you invited me.

CC: We’re eager to learn more about you. Where did you grow up?

SG: St. Louis, Missouri is where my grandparents settled, and my folks still live there. It’s a nice place. Have you been there?

CC: Yes, and I agree it’s a nice city. What does your family do there?

SG: Grandpa established his mercantile and sold merchandise to folks moving West as well as to the local residents. Papa added a wholesale dry goods business to other, smaller stores. I started working in the retail store when I was old enough to push a broom.

CC: Sounds industrious, Sid. How did you come to move to Texas?

SG: You see, I’ve always understood my older brother—his name is Caleb—will inherit the St. Louis store. I dreamed of having my own store. Ben Hathaway and Papa were childhood friends who’ve kept in touch. Ben wrote Papa that the store in Harrigan Springs was going to be up for sale and needed improving. Ben suggested Papa buy it, but I sure wanted to be the one who purchased it.

CC: You’re young to be setting yourself up in such a large business.

SG: Yes, ma'am, but I’d saved all I could from my salary. Papa paid me to work in the store after I turned thirteen, but I lived at home and didn’t have many expenses. I had enough to make the down payment. The place was in pretty bad shape but includes spacious living quarters upstairs. I’ve had to make a lot of improvements and changes on the store and living space, plus I added a large warehouse.

CC: That must have been difficult for you. How did you manage it?

SG: I worked long hours but couldn’t have managed if the bank hadn’t loaned me more money to expand. I’ve had to pinch every cent. Now, I’m finally at a place where I feel more comfortable financially.

CC: What about your personal life, Sid?

SG: (Sid chuckles.) Not much of one, especially since my wife Bethany died.

CC: My condolences, Sid. When and how did she pass?

SG: Of Cancer a  little over two years ago. Sure was hard to watch her suffer. We’d known each other all our lives. Can’t tell you how much I’ve missed her calm presence and sweet smile.

CC: That would have been very difficult. You must have some hobbies or outlets to relieve the effects of your hard work. What are they?

SG: People in Harrigan Springs are friendly, or most of them are. I enjoy talking to customers or those who stop by just to say hello and drink a cup of coffee. On Tuesday evening I host a card game. We play for pennies. (He chuckles again.) Mostly we just talk to each other. Usually the players include my three best friends, sometimes two or three more. Once or twice a week, I take my horse Blackjack for an hour’s ride. I attend church on Sunday morning, but don’t always make the other meetings. I take part in church and civic activities when I can. There’s always something happening in town.

CC: Sounds like a busy schedule. How many people help you in the store?

SG: So far, it’s just me, but my friends have been nagging me to remarry, and then a wife could help me in the store and cook meals, and such. There isn’t anyone locally who is the right age and disposition. Levi Iverson gave me the name of a matchmaker in New Orleans. So, I sent away for a mail order bride. I don’t know whether to be eager for her to arrive or afraid of whom I might end up marrying. (He pulls out his pocket watch.) I’m sorry, Mrs. Clemmons, but I have to get to the store and open for the day.

CC: Of course, Sid. Thank you for coming in so early and for answering my questions.

Sid smiles and gives a half-bow before hurrying out the door.

A Seph Vermillion Western Adventure Book 1

by David Fitz-Gerald

Genre: Historical Western Adventure Fiction

Grab your hat, step into your boots, and strap on those spurs. Your cow pony is saddled up and ready to ride the trail from San Antonio to Abilene.

Seph Vermillion grew up dirt poor. As long as he can remember, he's been pushing a plow and arguing with a mule. A couple of times a year, a trio of bandits ravage the family farm and make off with their savings.

Pa never returned home after the war. Seph's siblings have been gone so long, he doesn't remember what they look like. When Ma dies after a long illness, Seph trades the family farm for a horse named Sheriff. The kid next door tells Seph about the Deatherage Longhorn Cattle Ranch. The allure of adventure beckons. They partner up and hit the trail. Lacking skills, they are the last cowboys hired and agree to work for half pay.

The outfit's top hand, Stoke Moreland, pranks, taunts, and threatens Seph. Why does the seasoned cowboy seem intent on driving him off? Seph doesn't know much about self-defense, but he is tired of being a victim and feeling violated. How long can he turn the other cheek?

The trail is fraught with hazards from perilous river crossings to the mother of all stampedes. When they realize they're being tracked, followed, and hunted, a growing sense of doom overwhelms the fledgling outfit of cowboys who are still wet behind the ears. The outlaws that plagued Seph's past have followed them and they are determined to take the herd. Their plan is simple: pit the cowboys against each other, pick them off one by one, and stampede the beeves.

Since they left San Antonio, the drovers have looked forward to whooping it up at the end of the trail. That was before somebody began killing cowboys. Now, Abilene seems like an impossible dream. Will anybody make it to the end of the trail?

Grab your slicker, fetch your bedroll, and swing up into the saddle. Sign on with the Dagger D, Angry R brand—First Drive is calling your name.

April 23, 1868 

The sharp crack of gunfire sliced through the air, jolting Seph Vermillion from a daydream. He sat up tall in the saddle. The skin on his forearms prickled. A familiar punch detonated in his gut. That blast in his belly signaled danger. 

His ear twitched, and he blinked rapidly. 

The first shot was followed by several more, each one closer than the first. 

Seph glanced down at the buttstock of his rifle. His father called the Hawken Uncle Yves, but Seph never knew his grandfather's brother—or why his father had named it after his long-departed uncle. He considered drawing the gun from its scabbard. 

His heart thundered in his chest. He glanced at his partner, Slaw. The look on his friend's face mirrored his own sense of dread. 

They had hoped to avoid trouble on their journey to San Antonio. 

The sound of pounding hooves on the trail behind them grew to a rumbling thunder. With an urgent nod, Slaw signaled a detour off the trail. 

Seph dug his heels into the side of his claybank dun, a fast horse named Sheriff, and dropped the lead rope on his pack mule. Immediately, Seph was on the heels of his partner's horse, a dapple-gray called Win, short for Winter. 

Dirt chunked from Win's hooves, pelting Seph. Seph hunched over Sheriff's neck and squinted, hoping to keep the gravel from stinging his eyes. 

As they raced across rugged terrain, Seph spared a glance over his shoulder. Dread coiled in his belly at the sight of three familiar figures in hot pursuit. The approaching riders hooted, hollered, and howled. 

These weren't random bandits. Seph knew these skunks all too well. He couldn't count the times they had raided the Vermillion family farm. They'd gallop into the barnyard, help themselves to whatever they wanted and ride away, heckling and cajoling. Seph was always left to deal with the aftermath. 

But this time was different. Seph was no longer a helpless victim. Never again, Seph told himself. He gritted his teeth, urging Sheriff onward. Determination flowed through his limbs, and Sheriff lengthened his strides. 

He was thrilled to own a horse that loved to run.

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DNTP95FD

 

Here’s the description:

Sidney Garton, owner of Garton’s Mercantile in Harrigan Springs, Texas, sent for a wife:

“What I hope for is that she cooks our meals and manages the household, but also assists me in the store when needed—which would be quite a bit  of the time.”

Antoinette Fournier must evade her father’s plan to marry her to a terrible man. She’s confined to her room until she agrees to wed the rogue. Her sisters arrange with the matchmaker for her departure and help her get away immediately. Antoinette doesn’t have time to read the letter her groom-to-be sent the matchmaker until she is on the train for the first part of her trip to Texas.

Uh oh, she foresees a huge problem. She can’t cook. Her training in managing a household is directing the servants. She’s never worked in her life.

What if he sends her away?

He doesn’t, but what if he resents her forever?

When Sid is injured, she proves she is capable of managing his store and confronting a robber. But the criminal has sworn revenge against her. When he escapes from jail, can she and Sidney foil the evil thief’s plan? Is happily-ever-after together in Antoinette and Sid’s future?
