Love Me- Book 3 in the Sage McGuire Romance Series

Quirky, Private Investigator, Sage McGuire can’t seem to stay out of trouble in LOVE ME. Book 3 in the Sage McGuire Romance Series.

Bad-ass, Sergeant Carter Morgan of the Portland Police Department takes risks for a living—but he’d never risked his heart before. From the first flirty look Sage flashes, he is hooked and it has been a roller-coaster ride ever since.

With Carter's conniving ex-girlfriend, FBI Special Agent Mia Williams, in the looney-bin things finally seem to be settling back to normal, until Mr. Smithfield, Sage’s old boss, appears in her dreams asking for help to avenge his death. Knowing full well it could lead to another trip to the emergency room, Sage agrees to help.

Even with Carter trailing her every move, Sage solves Mr. Smithfield’s murder, and helps put her ex-boss’s wicked bride in jail.

With all the excitement, Sage forgets to buy Carter a Valentine’s Day gift, unless you count the edible, strawberry-flavored panties and banana-flavored massage gel. Carter on the other hand hits it out-of-the-park with a cupcake topped with a very special sparkling surprise.

Can Carter keep Sage safe, and out of trouble long enough to get her down the aisle.

Book 1- Chase Me

Sage McGuire had a great job she loved. All that changed in the blink of an eye when her long-time boss, Mr. Smithfield, had an accident involving an over-sized rubber band. When Mr. Smithfield’s semi-worthless son, Daniel, takes over Smithfield Laboratories Sage figures it’s time to turn her childhood dream of being a PI into reality.

After a night of unadulterated, mind-blowing sex Sage mistakes Sergeant Carter Morgan of the Portland Police Department for a serial killer and runs for the hills, but his sexy pinecone scent and black leather pants have her coming back for more.

Sage’s wild spirit, crazy red hair, and quirky sense of humor take Carter for the ride of his life and he’s more than willing to stick around and see what kind of trouble Sage can get herself into next.

Hold on tight as Sage and Carter rock each other’s world in KISS ME – A Sage McGuire Romance.

Book 2- Kiss Me

Quirky, Private Investigator, Sage McGuire is up to her ears in trouble again in KISS ME.

Sage has left the security of her old job, as an executive assistant to a moron, and jumped feet-first into opening McGuire Investigations. If only her boyfriend, Sergeant Carter Morgan’s big gun and cop's intuition could save Sage from being grazed by a bullet to the temple, and another trip to the emergency room when she steals back her best friend’s uncle’s pooch, Mimi, from a psychotic loan shark in her very first case.

Carter's scary and conniving ex-girlfriend, FBI Special Agent Mia Williams, is back in town and full of trouble. Mia is determined to rekindle her relationship with Carter and she is used to getting what she wants—no matter what the cost.

Will Sage and Carter succeed in keeping each other out of trouble while falling head-over-heels in love?

Stay tuned for another crazy roller-coaster ride in LOVE ME – A Sage McGuire Romance.

Collette Cameron - The Viscount's Vow RELEASED!

Now Available!!!

The Viscount's Vow
by Collette Cameron
430 pages
Expected Publication: September 4th by Soul Mate Publishing

Amidst murder and betrayal, destiny and hearts collide when scandal forces a nobleman and a gypsy to marry in this Regency Romance.

Half Romani, half English noblewoman, Evangeline Caruthers is the last woman in England Ian Hamilton, the Viscount Warrick, could ever love—an immoral wanton responsible for his brother’s and father’s deaths. She thinks he’s a foul-tempered blackguard, who after setting out to cause her downfall, finds himself forced to marry her—snared in the trap of his own making.

When Vangie learns the marriage ceremony itself may have been a ruse, she flees to her gypsy relatives, declaring herself divorced from Ian under Romani law. He pursues her to the gypsy encampment, and when the handsome gypsy king offers to take Ian’s place in Vangie’s bed, jealousy stirs hot and dangerous. 

At last, under a balmy starlit sky, Ian and Vangie breech the chasm separating them. Peril lurks though. Ian’s the last in his line, and his stepmother intends to dispose of the newlyweds so her daughter can inherit his estate. Only by trusting each other can they overcome scandal and murderous betrayal.

A life-long Oregonian, Collette Cameron was born and raised in a small town along the northern Oregon coast. Today she makes her home in a rural community, 30 minutes west of Portland.

Her Victorian farmhouse sits on a one-acre certified wildlife habit, interspersed with a plethora of gardens: English, rose, butterfly, rock, water, and of course, vegetables...

Asylum

by Jenny E Miller

After being found guilty of first-degree murder, sixteen-year-old June Foster is sentenced to life at Washington Pines Sanitarium.

June remains convinced that she was right to kill a man she knew was evil, but as time goes on in the asylum, she begins to question everything she knows. Or thought she knew.

As the events leading up to her incarceration are recounted, she begins to understand that the web she finds herself in is far bigger and stickier than she ever imagined. The warden of the facility, both violent and vindictive, is intent on making June’s life a living hell.   

June’s previous boyfriend, beautiful turquoise-eyed Frank, is the only one she can trust. Or is he?

Caught in the middle of child experimentation with untested drugs, arson, and murders, June Foster is reduced to two options—accept the fact that she has gone crazy, or hatch an escape plan from the asylum to get her life back.

Set in America during the 1950s, Asylum is a book you will not be able to put down. The author pulls you along relentlessly in a page-turning thriller that leaves you wanting more with each sentence—to a mind-blowing and unexpected conclusion you will not believe.

  What inspired you to write Asylum?

The story actually came to me in a dream several years ago. It was in a different form then: a girl committed to an asylum who only converses with her boyfriend, Frank. It was supposed to be unclear whether Frank was real or in her imagination, to keep the reader questioning her sanity. Now it’s a totally different story, but it all spawned from that one dream.

  Do you have a favorite scene?

My favorite is definitely where we first meet Clem. She’s spunky and innocent and becomes like June’s little sister. In that scene they have this banter going about the pills they take in the asylum, and it was really fun to write. Clem is my favorite character, and it killed me to end the book with her in the position she was in (without giving anything away!).

  Share something personal!!  Favorite writing spot? Fav snack? What are you reading now?

Hmmm. Something personal…I started a food blog four years ago to keep up my writing skills— www.RainyDayGal.com. It’s now become more of a food/humor blog, and I write stories about all the gross/funny/humiliating things my little girls are up to. If you want to hear some embarrassing stories about me, it’s all there!

I love to write in bed in the morning (if my husband has graciously taken the girls out for breakfast), snuggled up with my puppy and a cup of coffee. I write best in the morning.

Snack? Healthy: apples. We have great apples in Seattle. Un-healthy: sharp cheddar and Milton’s crackers, or Theo milk chocolate!

At the moment I’m reading Delirium by Lauren Oliver. I’ve become fascinated with dystopian worlds—I think something along that line is what I want to write after the Asylum trilogy is finished. 

Giveaway!!!

Waiting On Wednesday hosted by Breaking the Spine...

It is with great pleasure that I post this WWW... 'cause there's a ton of really great books coming out or that were just released & even if I maintain my TBR pile in the virtual world, it's feeling very long. I really wanted to list something that I'd drop everything to read.

Drum-roll please...

Bitterblue
by Kristen Cashore

Coming May 1, 2012                        

Taken from the author's blog...

A few reasons I love the (USA/Canada) cover above: It feels like Bitterblue (the character) to me. The colors have special significance. The keys are a highly appropriate icon (like Katsa's dagger on the Graceling cover). And, the keys look like weapons. :o)


A lot of people have asked me why it took so long for me to finish this book. The answer is simple. It's not because I was distracted; it's not because I wasn't working my ass off; it's simply because Bitterblue is longer and more complicated than the other books I've written, and some books require more time than others. The book decides.

Personally (me again) I don't mind the wait. Graceling is one of my all-time fav's, I just loved it. And Fire left me hungry for more of Cashore's writing. So... Yay!! I like "longer" and "more complicated". (Not to mention, maybe I'll get some awesome reading done by May!)


After some smallish research I found all these gorgeous covers. Let me know if I missed one!!

Let's have a Vote!!!
