Leonardo Montoya took a step into Mars’ idea of a luxury suite and snorted. The Quinn behind him offered him a handkerchief, and he waved it away. “I don’t have something up my nose, Quinn.” He took a few more steps and turned. “I have a sudden case of claustrophobia. Is this truly the largest suite you’ve got. I mean, dignitaries from all corners of Earth have traveled here. Surely you have better.” His boat was bigger than this.

The 2nd book in my Tripping on Mars series is now available on Amazon! I've had a difficult time coming up with a book hook for this one because there's just so much going on. Yes, there's a love story, but it's a very different sort of love story. And the theme of The Eyes? Well that gets hit from at least three different directions.                         Love, suspense, sci fi, humor...

It's been a pretty good year for reading when I can recommend more than 10 books! (Yeah, I know, I'm pickier than most.) I would give all of those that made my list this year 4 or 5 stars. Without further adieu, here they are in no particular order.

And Felicity believed him completely.

“Jack, if you’ve changed your mind in the last decade, I’ll understand.” She gave him a teasing smile. “But you’re stuck with me until the next storm.” Jack blinked, realizing he was giving off wrong signals. “No, Jewel, I haven’t changed my mind. It’s just that... well... I don’t know how to begin. I feel sort of at a disadvantage; you know all about me, but I know almost nothing about you.”

The sound of water splashing in the bathroom on the other side of the wall had him sitting upright, listening. He rose slowly and gently padded down the hall to the bathroom door. It was standing slightly ajar, and as he approached, he could see two feet crossed at the ankles, resting on the edge of the tub. Feminine feet.

Time agent Jewel Jamison promised a young Jack Cavanaugh that she'd be his 26th birthday present. She'd hoped for a fling with the man she'd become obsessed with in the history books, but Jack, having waited ten years for the sexy Jewel to show up in 1919, has plans to build a life together.

 Thank you Debdatta for hosting the Spread Some Indie Love Blog Hop! www.b00kr3vi3ws.in My new release, JOLT, is a clean romance set in 1892 Manitou Springs--the little town at the base of Pikes Peak near Colorado Springs. I had so much fun researching and writing this book!
