Logan's Redemption by Cara Marsi

This story about a bad boy from the wrong side of life is anything but typical. Cara Marsi embroils Logan and Doriana in a twisting, intriguing plot that keeps the reader propped up in bed with a penlight long after everyone has tucked in.

From family squabbling to industrial espionage, this is a story about how way goes on to way, how each choice we make in each age of our lives -- each lover, each fear, each time we turn away from someone or reach out a hand, each right decision -- how these things change us personally and change the rest of our lives and our families lives.

When Logan and Doriana meet again, they know they can't go back ... and as the plot unfolds and tangles, mixing old unhealed hurts, hard heads, broken promises and unspoken lies, it seems impossible that they might have a future.

Texan by the grace of God

I picked up a new anthology from The Wild Rose Press this week, Love, Texas Style, because I can never resist a cowboy, and was delighted to see all the local Texas authors.

There is a wide range (if you'll pardon the pun) of settings from Big D to a small town that I'm sure must be Crockett, and from a working cattle ranch to the lonely roads in the far parts of the state. There are bull-riders, rich girls, fancy cars and old trucks, and even a giant rotating armadillo. In short, all the flavor and variety that makes this state great, or at least interesting. It's all Texas, oh so familiar, and all wonderfully larger than life with it's glitz and glitter, dusty roads, hot summer sun and those brilliant starry nights.

And the cowboys... it's all about those cowboys. ;)
