Hello, Everyone!

I hope joy, happiness, fun, and the spirit of the season filled your holidays. We ended the year on 123123 (12/31/23), and it's the beginning of the New Year, 2024.

My 2023 brought us the blessing of a second grandson, Max. We also celebrated the release of my 4th book in August, 2023, "A Tryst in Paris." It actually won an award from N. N. Light Book Heaven as best in time travel romance and garnered 5 star reviews, which gives me inspiration to keep writing!

But 2023 also brought sadness to my family as we had to say farewell to two of our beloved dogs: Khloe, our black lab (12) belonging to my daughter Kristen, and Jackpot, our fifteen pound rescued "mutt" (18). If only their bodies had remained as strong as their devotion to us. It's so hard to lose our pets.

Now, it's time for 2024 resolutions and vision boards - a time for resetting and repurposing. How wonderful we have a new start every year to be a better us. A kinder us. A more spiritual us. We have an extra day this year to work toward our goals and enjoy our lives since 2024 is a Leap Year!

Thanks for your support and interest in my writing journey. I'm pivoting away from writing historical to writing sweet contemporary. My aim is to release my second Christmas romance by Fall 2024, and I'm developing a small town romance trilogy. Wish me God speed because I'm the slowest writer!

GIVEAWAY!

One of my 2024 goals is to find my readers and connect with them on a personal level. One way I can do this is by creating a private Facebook Group. I'm thinking of naming it Anne@FirstSight. I'll post drafts of scenes for feedback, ask for help in naming characters, post cover reveals before they go public, and have monthly zooms about writing. I will encourage my group to pre-order new releases, post reviews on release dates, and share social media posts.

If you'd like to be a part of this private group, scroll down and answer YES! Anyone who answers, whether yes or no, will be entered into a drawing for a $5.00 Amazon gift card.

Happy New Year!

I recently participated in a daily writing sprint during November hosted by the awesome Bryn Donovan (learn more about Bryn HERE), and I met two incredible fellow "sprinters", Nan Reinhardt and Audrey Schuyler Lancho.

I have fallen in love with Nan's books, my favorite one so far being The Fireman's Christmas Wish (The Lange Brothers Book 3).

I cannot wait until Audrey's debut, Seven Days at Mannerley, releases on March 26, 2024. Keep your eyes on Audrey's social media for preorder links available soon.

I'll share more about Bryn's upcoming release, Her Knight at the Museum, in future newsletters, but while you're setting 2024 goals, you should check out Bryn's The Book of Dreams Come True: A Journal of Self-Discovery, Goals, and Manifestation.

The Walker Family Book 1

When his family’s company is on the line, business and pleasure definitely don’t mix, but maybe they should…

Madeline Ross left the city and a career glass ceiling behind, hoping to build a new life as the crew supervisor for Walker Construction in River’s Edge. She’s qualified and experienced, but new CEO Jackson Walker hires someone else. Even as she searches for a different job and builds a life in River’s Edge, the sexy memory of Jack teases.

After a rough year, Jackson Walker’s family business is still struggling. He needs a new construction crew supervisor, and Maddie Ross is perfect, except for the first time in his life, player Jack is suddenly smitten with the curvaceous redhead. He wants her in his bed more than on his payroll.

When his second-rate new hire is a disastrous mistake, Jack humbles himself on Maddie’s doorstep with an offer she can’t refuse. Maddie could be the key to saving his company as long as he hides his heart. But does he have to?
