Today, I’m reviewing Lachlan and Gypsy, a contemporary romance by author Barbara Campbell, book two in the Tales of the Nightie series.

It’s time for another addition of WIP (work in progress) Wednesday. I’m currently working on self-edits for Sanctified, book three in the Matawapit Family Series. I plan on submitting the manuscript to my publisher at the end of July.
Update: I’ve since submitted Sanctified to my publisher. I’m now currently working on self-edits for Renewed, the fourth book in the series.
WIP Wednesday
The Matawapit Family Series: In the wilds of Northwestern Ontario, the adult children of a domineering Ojibway church deacon find their faiths crumbling and their beliefs faltering when a vengeful former lover, an ex-fiancé out on parole, and a seductive family enemy challenge Emery, Bridget, and Jude in a duel of love, loyalty, and values that threatens to destroy their perfect Catholic lives and family.
Here is Teaser 4 for Sanctified:
Today, I’m reviewing The Dragon’s Lion, book two in the Crimson Realm Chronicles by fellow eXasty Books authors Gabriella Bradley and Taryn Jameson.

It’s been awhile when I last did an Author Alert. Today, I’m featuring fellow eXtasy Books author Cameron Allie. If you like your contemporary romance erotic and sweet, and enjoy digging into m/f or m/m romance, I highly suggest Cameron.
She not only writes series, but also standalones, and contributes to anthologies. Check out her Unexpected Changes series, Love Me or Leave Me series, and Our Love Story series (a collection of short stories).

Today, I’m hosting author Wendy Rathbone and her latest release Remember Me, book three in The Foundling Series, a m/m contemporary romance.

By the time this post is live, I’ll either be knee-deep in edits with Sanctified and readying the third book in the Matawapit Family Series for submission to my publisher, or I might be continuing to fast-draft Renewed, the fourth and final book in the series. As of May 31st, I’ve written 65K for this book. And I’m debating whether to keep going or work on edits for Sanctified.

My inspiration for writing the Matawapit Family Series came from the many talks I had with my Dad, who attended two. The purpose of these schools was to assimilate Canada’s First People into Western society. The schools had a devastating impact on the aboriginal population. The Matawapit Family Series touches on the intergenerational trauma the people continue to experience. Throughout the years, many Indigenous people have shared their stories, which I did a previous blog post about called Canada’s Indian Residential Schools.
I asked my father to guest blog today and speak about his experience as we celebrate the release of the second book in the series, Redeemed. Don’t forget to enter the Raffelcopter giveaway at the end of the post.

Today, I’m reviewing Perilous Hearts, book three in the Deviant Hearts series by A E Ryecart, a m/m romantic thriller.
