Whispers of Christmas are heading your way...

I know its still the heat of August in the Northern Hemisphere. Although I have seen a few early sightings on Facebook of turning leaves. But I'm expecting a special Christmas delivery any day now. My author copies of ByGone Christmas Brides will soon be here with release day only three weeks away. This heartwarming collection of Christmas stories is already available for pre-order at online book sellers!
