Happy June!

Happy June!

I don’t know about you guys, but the spring flew by. My 16 year old daughter got her driver’s license in March and has already had her first fender bender in the high school parking lot. Sigh. This mothering of teenagers is no joke.

Bonus Son 2 just arrived home from college for summer break. I love having him home, not only because he fills the house with sunshine, but because he runs all kinds of errands for me. Bonus Son 1 just got a new job and will be continuing his college courses over the summer. My little one, Emerson, turned 13 last month. She is now officially a teenager. How did that happen? She’s excited to start another season of cheer in August. The summer vacations here in Washington are short, especially if you participate in a fall sport, as they start in the middle of August.

I’ve been busy working on several new projects, including the 7th Cliffside Bay book, “Healed: Stone and Pepper” as well as a Christmas authors for a promotion called “Christmas in July” with fourteen other small town romance authors. I’ll be sure to send a note out about that next month. All the novellas will be on sale for 99 cents and are similar to my tone and genre. Thus, it’s a great opportunity to find some new authors. My novella is about the wedding of Lisa and Rafael from the 6th Cliffside Bay novel, Missed. It’s set in Cliffside Bay, of course, but also Emerson Pass, Colorado, my new fictional town named after my second daughter. Speaking of which, did you know I named Cliffside Bay after my husband Cliff?

I’ve included the links to grab your preorder copy of “Healed: Stone and Pepper”. Order your copy now and it will magically appear in your ebook reader device on June 24th.

Best wishes for a wonderful rest of June. May it be filled with roses and sunshine and a good book!

Healed: Stone & Pepper arrives June 24th!!!

#Healed #StoneAndPepper #CliffsideBay

It’s Cliffside Bay and beyond in this heartwarming enemies-to-lovers romantic adventure from USA Today bestselling author Tess Thompson.

Stone Hickman is the last of a dying breed. The former Marine believes in integrity, service to his country, a hard day’s work, and taking care of his loved ones. When he meets the clever Pepper Griffin, their obvious attraction has him ready to count the stunning beauty among the people that he cares for. But Pepper doesn’t share the instant connection. In fact, she wants nothing to do with him. And for honest, straightforward Stone, not knowing why only makes the rejection worse.

Pepper Griffin is the epitome of scrappy. For years she’s struggled to make acting her career without any help at all from her famous father. While she’s still accepting meager roles with little screen time, her best friend has steadily risen to the height of fame. To make matters worse, that very same friend is happily in love, newly engaged, and wants poor Pepper, whose love life is as sad and pathetic as her last film role, to serve as her maid-of-honor while Pepper’s enemy, Stone Hickman, is sure to be the groom’s best man.
Though Pepper despises the best man, she loves the bride-to-be more. To keep the peace, Pepper willingly includes Stone in the wedding planning process. When the unlikely pair find themselves stranded in a snowstorm while searching for the perfect venue, they’ll have to work together to survive the chill even if that means thawing Pepper’s heart.
