Picnics and Promises - six delicious stories for summer


Introducing Picnics and Promises. For each of the next six days, I will spotlight each book. Each will have blurb, extract and review - except mine because I'm not reviewing my own book... Well I could but that would be kind of biased ;-) Each post now has the relevant link next to it.

Six brand-new, delicious novellas, by 6 authors.




MOOSED OPPORTUNITIESā€”JAN ELDER
Rev. Samantha Evans loves Moose Creek, Maine, the land of moose and men, particularly her fiancĆ© Eric Palmer. Forest ranger, Eric, strives to plan their wedding, but Samanthaā€™s busy schedule, his interfering ex-wife, missing college students, and a pregnant moose, all conspire against him. Will their lives continue to be a series of Moosed Opportunities?  


ZARAā€™S FOLLYā€”CLARE REVELL
British equestrian, Zara Michaels, heads south to convince TJ Greggson to sell his property to her developer father. Any way she can. TJ co-owns the stables, catering to disabled childrenā€”his lifeā€™s purpose. His brother wants to sell. TJ doesnā€™t. Can TJ help untangle Zara from her past follies, or will their secrets destroy them both?




A POCKETFUL OF WISHESā€”MARY MANNERS
As childhood neighbors, Jenna Palmer and Carter Stevens discover first love. When a cross-country job transfer separates them, they promise to one day find each other. Years go by and they lose touch until an accident causes their paths to once again cross. Can their promise stand the test of time, or will time crush their promiseā€¦and their love?

Can her prize-winning pie recipe sweeten his new business venture and heal their broken hearts?





IMPERFECTLY PROVERBS 31ā€”AUTUMN MACARTHUR
The last thing geeky Samantha Rose planned for was the homemaking blog only her sister was ever supposed to see going viral. After a disastrous picnic, Daniel Novak, the cynical reporter dispatched to interview her, insists he must reveal the truth. But that could ruin everything, including their budding love.





A COURTSHIP FOR CLOVERā€”MARION UECKERMANN 
Clover Blumeā€™s chance of getting to know the groomsman escorting her to her sisterā€™s wedding is threatened when heā€™s delayed. Jonathan Spaldingā€™s money hasnā€™t managed to buy him one thing: a woman to love. Is the auburn-haired beauty partnering with him at his best friendā€™s wedding finding a way into his heart?

Escape to Whispering Creek by Barbara M Britton

ā€œEscape to Whispering Creekā€ Barbara M. Britton   Thanks for having me on the blog again, Clare. Today is my launch day for ā€œEscape to Whispering Creek.ā€ Paperback fans will have to wait until October 31 st  to get their hands on Emma and Wadeā€™s story. Readers will be able to head back to my Tennessee town with Emma. When Emmaā€™s life implodes, she drives to see her bestie Sam in Whispering Creek. Emma hopes to get a job and make some money, but she never expects to fall in love with grumpy Wade. Samantha and Cole from ā€œChristmas at Whispering Creekā€ return in this story, but ā€œEscapeā€ can be read as a standalone novel.   Book blurb: Emma Uranova enjoys her office job until her boss disappears with the investors' money.

Phooey Kerflooey: Three Kids And A Puppy vs The Squirrel Of The Apocalypse by Kristen Joy Wilkes

Kristen says "Once upon a time, our family of three young boys welcomed a princess into our home. A furry princess, a princess who ended up weighing more than they did, was terrified of haybales and bags of chicken feed, and refused to drink out of anything but her own special mug. Our boys were charmed by their puppy princess and asked that I write a story based on her. It took me seven years, but finally I present to you  Phooey Kerflooey ! While our own boys delighted in Princess Leia Freyjaā€™s scaredy-cat antics and princess ways, the boys in the story take a bit longer to appreciate Phooeyā€™s gifts. However, I pray that you will enjoy their journey together as they battle the squirrel of the apocalypse and search for perfect peace amidst a storm of chaos. " And I loved this one. It's gone straight back into the TBR pile. A puppy will fix everything.  A boring new house?  Boring house + puppy = adventure!    An attacking squirrel?  Evil squirrel + puppy =...

She rejects their Christianity, fearing the tenets of the white manā€™s religion will prevent her from practicing as a Shawnee medicine woman.

At the discovery of his fellow missionaryā€™s long lost niece living among the Shawnee, Jeremiah is immediately smitten. But unless Ginny Red Fawn McLain joins Christā€™s foldā€”something she adamantly resistsā€”Jeremiah will have to choose between the woman he loves and the work God has called him to do.    G...
