My Theme Song, Sing it Loud & Sing it Proud #LASR Blogging Challenge
Welcome to #L&SR’s Wednesday Weekly Blogging Challenge for March 17, 2021. Happy Saint Patrick’s Day!! Today’s topic My Theme Song. Pull up a chair, grab a drink. Take your choice of a Chocolate Chip, Snickerdoodle, or Peanut Butter cookie from the plate and let me share my theme songs!
Good morning everyone. I’ve been following 52 Week Blog Challenge, sometimes I post, sometimes I don’t. It’s the renegade in me, I can’t help it. <shrugs> Today I noticed a topic – Do I have a theme song? Giving that thought, I decided if I do, it would be Rachel Platten – Fight Song (forgive the ad). Yep, that’s me sending big waves into motion with more than a single word. How about several books? LOL Explosions, well not always on purpose, but yeah I’ll own that too!
Take back my life. It gets away from me more than I’d like to admit. Writing deadlines, family obligations, social engagement demands, and I hate to admit it I cringe at leaving my writing cave at times. It’s safe there and I don’t have to live in reality. Reality is completely over rated in my book! Which explains why I write Paranormal Romance/Mystery/Suspense.
The peace and quiet of my sun room, in the company of my parrot and dog, the birds chirping outside allows me to center and take back my life on my terms. The support of my own real life hero and best friend of many, many moons, my hubby, keeps me striving to meet my goals.
Air whooshes out of me in a rush when I look at my to-do-list for the next six months. Yep that’s why I’m writing this instead of my books. Procrastination at it’s best. The list several pages long flutters to the floor and for a moment I consider leaving it there. That won’t do, so I pick the cursed things up and my real world whirls into focus. Am I in too deep? I contemplate that for a moment or two. Hell no, I’m living my dream and I’m going to grasp that brass ring and reach the top! Hear me Roar! Oops another theme song. Katie Perry <giggle>
Well enough reflections, time to get back into the battle and fight for what I want. Those damn books won’t write themselves. I hope you’ll join me in fighting for your dreams. No one said it’d be easy. Together, we’ll change the world, regardless of who believes, and we’ll do it one book at a time!
Alas, I must return to my writing cave. Stay tuned! Chocolate Raspberry Magic release date 7 April 2021. As I indicated, I’ve turned in the sixth book in A Demon’s Witch Series to my editor at The Wild Rose Press and I have a Contract on A Witch’s Quandary!! Now the edits to begin. Yippee! AND A new project’s last draft is DONE Wylder West Assignment it’s headed to my editor also. Fingers crossed she like its. Keep an eye out for more information. Now let’s see what the other authors list as their theme song. LOL L&SR

In honor of Saint Patrick’s Day, a little about A MAGIC REDEMPTION and it’s on sale. A Magic tale set in Ireland. Join the adventure, download a copy today of A Magic Redemption! Enjoy!
Synn, a demon, carries extraordinary magic and power, but there is more within her than she dreams. Kidnapped as a child, her captors murdered her family and forced her into training as a warrior assassin. When an assignment goes horribly wrong, she finds herself at the mercy of the friends and family of her intended target. Offering valuable information in exchange for protection, she gains her freedom, but it is not without its challenges.
Gavin Shaughnessy is the publican at his family’s Irish pub. He is certain Synn is meant to be his and isn’t bothered by her past. He must find a way to convince her, their future together is stronger than the dark memories that haunt her dreams.
When her past comes calling for revenge, will their love survive the raging inferno she brings down upon them? Or will the searing path of destruction destroy all they hold dear?

Most Romantic Book or Movie Ever #L&SR’s Weekly Blog Challenge
Welcome to #L&SR’s Wednesday Weekly Blogging Challenge for February 10, 2021. Today’s topic MOST ROMANTIC BOOK OR MOVIE EVER. So many to choose from, but I ‘ll try to narrow it down! Pull up a chair, grab a drink. Take your choice of a Chocolate Chip, Snickerdoodle, or Peanut Butter cookie from the plate and let me share my thoughts on the most romantic book or movie ever!
Dirty Dancing
First let me explain that I love everything paranormal. So having said that, these are my choices. Except Dirty Dancing, it’s just plain so ROMANTIC for mortals! LOL
Most romantic movie ever: I have two that tied for most romantic movie ever Ghost and Dirty Dancing. Click on the titles and see the trailers.
Discovery of Witches
Now lets take a gander at most romantic book ever. How to Flirt with a Naked Werewolf by Molly Harper and Discovery of Witches by Deborah Harkness movie and books. Probably a lot different than most people’s choices, but hey, I gotta be me!
Now before I go, I have to shamlessly plug my Fun and Flirty Valentine Romance, CHARM ME, which the E-book just happens to be on sale for 99¢ as one of the most romantic books I’ve written. I know it’s cheating but it is a great Valentine read!
A little about Charm Me:
Summer Dawn Rylie’s an extraordinary elemental witch whose troubled past haunts her. She’s created a calm life for herself teaching yoga and keeping people at a distance. Her life takes a one eighty degree turn when she enrolls in a women’s weapons class and meets ruggedly handsome Devlin Sawyer.
Devlin, a former Navy Seal, has sworn off women after two long-term failed relationships, but there is no denying his attraction to Summer. She intrigues him like no other woman ever has. Despite her attempts to ignore him, Summer is drawn to Devlin. His magic signature is strong, but he’s no warlock. Will Valentine’s Day magic find them a future together?
Alas, I must return to my writing cave. Stay tuned! Chocolate Raspberry Magic release date been extended until April 2021. As I indicated, I’ve turned in the sixth book in A Demon’s Witch Series to my editor at The Wild Rose Press and I have a Contract!! Now the edits to begin. Yippee! AND A new project’s first draft is DONE Wylder West Assignment. Keep an eye out for more information. Now let’s see what the other authors list as few of their coice for most romantic book or movie ever. LOL L&SR

Glacier National Park in Montana Tuesday Travel Destination
Glacier National Park in Montana is the Tuesday Travel Destination today.
– Glacier National Park is a 1,583-sq.-mi. wilderness area in Montana’s Rocky Mountains, with glacier-carved peaks and valleys running to the Canadian border. Glacier’s pristine forests, alpine meadows, spectacular lakes, and rugged mountains are not to be missed. It’s crossed by the mountainous Going-to-the-Sun Road. This is a breath-taking drive you have to see to believe. However, it is not for the faint of heart. On our way driving up the road, we saw several cars from flat-lands, pulled over to the side and had to be escorted back down. If mountain driving, or sheer drop offs scares you, the best way to see Going-to-the-Sun Road is by hiring one of the tour vehicles and drivers provided. Among more than 700 miles of hiking trails, it has a route to photogenic Hidden Lake. Other activities include backpacking, cycling and camping. Diverse wildlife ranges from mountain goats to grizzly bears. Psst… my book A Vampire’s Unlikely Alliance is in part set inside Glacier National Park.
This was a fun destination for July. We arrived on July 4th and look forward to fireworks when it got dark. Only dark didn’t arrive until after midnight. Wow. We watched the spectacular fireworks display put on by the KOA Campground we stayed at just outside the entrance to the Park. By the time we got to bed, it was two in the morning. The next thing we knew, the sun shone brightly though the RV windows at four in the morning. No wonder we were tired. Not used to operating on two hours sleep. It didn’t keep us from heading out to see the sights.
Yep this was the same trip but at the top of Going to The Sun Road.
A sneak peek at A VAMPIRE’S UNLIKELY ALLIANCE set in Glacier National Park.
Stefan is a Native American vampire, former assassin for the Vampire Council. In a twist of fate, he now DJ’s the midnight shift for a small radio station in Whitefish, Montana, on the edge of Glacier National Park where his secret is safe until…
Born in Ireland, Brandy now works as a park ranger and trail guide in the park. During a full moon, Stefan and Brandy’s paths cross in a near physical collision on a trail. Their attraction is immediate and undeniable, almost as if fate demanded it.
Their union was foretold long ago in Irish folk tales where vampires and gryphons, warlocks and demons, witches and faeries must work together for the good of man and magic kind. Is a trip to Ireland the key to unraveling secrets and returning the magic? And even more importantly, will their love survive the trip?
I hope you’ve enjoyed this weeks Destination Glacier National Park. Next week, check back, I’ll have another segment for you. Thanks for stopping by, I really appreciate it!
