BLURB:
Perfectionistic Branna Lind has found true love with James Newbern, but the winds of Hurricane Katrina have pushed their wedding date into an uncertain future. She can’t wait on Fleur de Lis to be restored to marry James. They need to wed pronto, before she reveals news sure to shock her family.
James is determined to protect Branna. Since their engagement, his gun toting ex-fiancée has been dipping into crazy. He’s certain she’ll settle down after the wedding, but when she steals Branna’s heirloom pearls—her something old for the wedding—James takes matters into his own hands. And despite Branna’s ranting, he’s not agreeing to a quickie Vegas wedding. His fiancée will be a Fleur de Lis bride, just as tradition dictates. Or he’ll die trying.
The path to “I do” is more challenging than Branna and James ever imagined, but they’re determined to get their happily ever after.

The crystal bell has significance in the story. You won’t want to miss meeting Morgan and Alex:
After grieving the loss of her husband and son, TV host Morgan Marshall is ready to embrace life again. But she won’t risk a relationship with the father of her favorite cooking student, Avery, since the girl’s happiness is more important than her own.
Advertising executive Alex Blake never thought another woman could pique his interest after losing his wife to pneumonia, a complication of her cancer. Yet every time he’s in Morgan’s presence, she brings sunlight into the room. Plus, she’s a role model for his daughter, always assuring Avery that dyslexia can’t hold her back. But if he asks Morgan for a date and then she refuses a second one, the person he loves the most, Avery, could get hurt the worst because she adores Morgan.
When Alex is injured in a fall, Morgan insists on caring for him and Avery. As they share holiday fun, Avery topples Morgan’s beloved crystal bell collection, shattering it to pieces. Through it all, they discover love of one another is more priceless than any object money can buy. Love rings in the air at Christmastime.

I love books because they take you away to different places. I love to immerse myself into a good book.
I love books for their journeys to HEAs… seeing all different types of characters and what it takes for them to find happiness. The best books touch my emotions!
Colleen,
Thank you so much for letting me know.
Smiles,
Linda
I love books for so many reasons. I mean, first and foremost, I love books for the excitement and the thrill of them – romance, fantasy, supernatural, paranormal, erotic, contemporary, etc. It feels so good to me when I get so immersed, absorbed, and invested in a book. And I always get a sense of accomplishment along with satisfaction after finishing a good book which just feels great to me and makes me want to continue on, especially if it’s one of those reading challenges. I get that awesome ‘I did it!’ feeling and it’s just all a matter of good fun to me. I get a good story and sometimes I gain more knowledge in the process, and in the end, I just feel awesome about everything. And then I also love books because they’ve helped me cope with a lot of things – they were my home away from home, my safety zone, my comfort, and part of my coping process whenever I had troubles and when I faced the worst times of my life. Books are just so many things for me, and the feelings I get from books and from reading are good for me and that’s why I love them.
Sabrina,
Thank you so much for sharing your heartfelt words. Eloisa James said, “Romance teaches us about life.” I wholeheartedly agree.
Happy Reading!

I love reading because I love the characters and whats going on in their lives.
Theresa,
There have been times when my husband has said to me, “I can’ wait for you to finish reading that book!” I get really involved with characters from each book I read.
Happy Reading!

I love books because they take you to another place, & they allow you to use your imagination. They can be taken anywhere, & you never need to worry about the battery dying, or finding an outlet for your charger.
Joy,
Great comment about the battery. I love books because every once in a great while, I like to soak in a bubble bath and read. Yes, I’ve dropped a book or two in the water, BUT they dry out. Not so much with my Kindle.
Smiles,
Linda
Happy Fall, Linda! I love books and now that I have retired from teaching, I actually have time to read what I want!!
Linda,
From one Linda to another, I so know what you mean about reading what you want. You go, girl!
Smiles,
LJ
GOOD LUCK EVERYONE!!
Books take me away to somewhere else and others lives so that is why I read.
Shirley,
Your comment made me think of this song. I had to look it up… but here it is in an abbreviated form:
“Never Been To Spain” Three Dog Night
Well, I’ve never been to Spain
But I kinda like the music
Well, I’ve never been to England
Well, I headed for Las Vegas
Only made it out to Needles
Well, I’ve never been to heaven
But I’ve been to Oklahoma
Oh, they tell me I was born there
But I really don’t remember
In Oklahoma, not Arizona
What does it matter?
What does it matter?
Happy Reading!
I love to read books because they are a form of relaxation and reliever of everyday stress. Gives you the ability to meet very interesting characters and the situations they face.
Kathleen,
Please share with me why you love books.
Smiles,
Linda Joyce
Kathleen,
Amen!

Thank you for the cover reveal of Branna and the wonderful giveaway.
I love reading books because they can take you to places that you may never get to visit in person. Thank you for the opportunity to win. I love the pink coach bag.
I love books because they take me away from the real world to anywhere I would like to be. It’s the best way to travel, no packing, no money, no strange food or water and no walking. I can just imagine. I can also live vicariously through the myriad of characters I read about!
Cindy,
I agree. Books are the best way to travel…traveling these days is exhausting.
Happy Reading,
LJ
Great Newsletter, Linda~~ 🙂
Many hugs!
Trish
Trish,
Thanks so much!
And lots of HUGS sent to you.
🙂 Linda
My love of books feels like it has been a lifetime. As a little girl, I remember my mother and grandmother reading all the time. Once I was able to read, I devoured many books. I would spend hours in the library looking for the ‘perfect’ book. Reading takes me into a heavenly realm of bliss. Being able to read actually calms me down during times of trouble and turmoil. I escape into the stories, imagining myself as the heroine! Thanks to you and so many other authors, I have had many hours of reading!
Terry,
I feel your passion for books. When I first learned to read, it felt liberating, like I’d cracked a code into the adult word. (Kind of like learning words so you know what you’re parents were spelling between them hoping you wouldn’t understand. LOL.)
Happy Reading!
