First Comes
Love by Christie Ridgway
Kitty Wilder
longed for a little respectability, so eight years ago she
finagled an “I do” out of local hero Dylan
Matthews. The ceremony was only supposed to be a tourist

fact she’d "conveniently" neglected to share until
Dylan comes storming back into her life ready to have it out
with his unexpected wife.

Breaking The
Rules by Barbara Samuel
Mattie
O’Neal was on the run. She’d stolen a car, cut
off her hair, changed her name and was slinging hash in a

Zeke Shephard walked through the door.

Space In
His Heart by Roxanne St. Claire
(originally self published December 2011 in eBook
format)
Commander Deke Stockard, a Navy fighter
pilot turned astronaut, has one thing on his mind: a mission
to space. Until PR superstar Jessica Marlowe shows up and
announces Deke’s going to become “the face of
NASA” to make America fall in love with the space
program again. Consumed with the safety of the upcoming
shuttle launch, Deke has zero interest in being part of a
lame media blitz, but orders can’t be ignored. He also
can’t ignore the way Jessica’s sexy smile and
single-minded determination throw his well-ordered life into
a tailspin....and ignite an undeniable attraction. But when
the next launch becomes a ticking time bomb, Deke and
Jessica will have to work together to uncover sabotage and
secrets before they can find the space in their hearts for love.

Christie Ridgway's Bio

The SUN rose on romance for me when I was 11 years old and caught my first glimpse of that certain teen hottie on the cover of a Tigerbeat magazine. Practical even then, I realized that my chances of meeting dazzling coverboy were slim, so I wrote my own reality in a series of romantic stories (I was already dreaming of becoming a published author) that I shared with my best friend. Today, those stories are locked away in a box. The key is lost, thank you God.

It was near the SURF in Santa Barbara that I found the real man I would share my life with. We met my freshman year at college during the Halloween Dance. He went as The Wind. I didn't understand it then, I don't understand it now. However, after our first meeting he called me "Princess" when he saw me (later found out he couldn't remember my name) and I discovered he could play the "Peanuts" theme on the piano. Diplomas, first jobs, and a few years later, we married and now have two sons.

Like waves crashing onto the SAND, my dream of becoming a published author never ended. But still practical, I worked for a number of years as a technical writer and computer programmer. Then I rediscovered the joy of romance novels between rounds of Lego-building and reading GOODNIGHT MOON to my young sons. Mom had always said I could do whatever I wanted, and now I knew that I wanted to write books that provided entertainment and emotional satisfaction.

SEX (threw that in to keep you reading!) is not what my books are all about. Sure, there's sizzle on the pages but there's also drama and then there's the suspense of discovering how two people can find their happily-ever-after. I believe in those, by the way. So come on, let me tell you a love story. Let me take you to warm, sexy, and romantic California.
