Spotlight on: Cupid’s Schemes - A Collection of Sweet Romances

Hi everyone!

I know we’re in the middle of winter, but Valentine’s Day is just around the corner. (In fact, I saw Valentine’s Day candy and cards for sale the day after Christmas!) Valentine’s Day is all about celebrating love and romance, so why not get in the mood now?

If you love sweet “first meet” romances, you don’t want to miss my two-volume contemporary romance anthology, Cupid’s Schemes.

The diverse stories in Cupid’s Schemes have unique characters, including reporters, cowboys, a medieval knight, and even a vampire. I grouped the stories by season (starting with winter), so as you read through each book, you’ll be following the calendar year. Several stories are holiday-themed (Valentine’s Day, St. Patrick’s Day, Halloween, Thanksgiving, etc.). And believe it or not, some of the settings and “first meets” were inspired by true stories people have told me over the years.

When I wrote the stories, I deliberately left them open-ended so readers can use their imaginations about where the story and the characters go from here. I wanted to show how two people meet, feel a spark of romance, and then leave the rest of the story up to the reader. What happens next is up to you. I end each story with the characters in good places with the potential to have a happy-ever-after ending with their new love interest.

These feel-good stories are perfect for a boost of romance whenever or wherever you need it—and they’re ideal for reading on electronic devices.

I hope you enjoy the stories. Here are the book summaries and links:
