A few Christmas stories for you -- one from me!


It’s Christmas in Legend, Tennessee and there is no finer place to visit than this small mountain town, sitting snug and cozy into the Great Smoky Mountains. You may have been here before, when Midnight Shelby came to town to find herself, or when Jane Smith switched places with her famous twin sister at her high school reunion. Or perhaps, you’ll remember meeting up with Lilly Peach when she escaped to Legend with only her life, and finds an entire town to watch her back. And then there is Suzie Matthews, chef and owner of the local B&B, who cooks up a dream of her own.

All of these characters are still living in Legend. Plus you’ll find some new friends, too. After all, it’s Christmastime! People are coming home, visiting family, and maybe settling a few misunderstandings. I hope you enjoy visiting this magical town of Legend.

Whether it’s your first visit, or you’ve been here before, we hope you enjoy your stay. We are pleased to be able to share these stories with you. Eggnog, anyone?

Stories in this Ladies of Legend Christmas Series include:

 Santa’s Kiss by Jan Scarbrough 
Christmas Collision by Magdalena Scott 
The Christmas Gift by Janet Eaves 
Home For The Holidays by Maddie James. 

All titles now available in the TMP bookstore and at Amazon.
Coming soon to many other online retailers!

Merry Christmas!

Just another FIRST AND LAST MONDAY!

Last week I started something new called FIRST AND LAST MONDAY. You can check out last week's post to learn more.

The two sentences that follow came from a book I've recently read and I asked people to either guess the book, comment on the page, or tell me what a sentence or two in-between might be. Man, you guys came up with some funny sentences!

So, once again, here is last week's FIRST AND LAST:

Catherine stepped from the dock onto the creaky planks. She gave Dawson a reason to love again and they both found safe harbor in the circle of each other’s arms and in the deep and eternal ocean of their love.

Anyone guess CASTAWAY HEARTS by Taryn Raye? If so, you would be right! And the person who wins the copy of CONVINCING NORA this week is....drum roll.... Jennifer Johnson! She was the magic #5 poster and besides that, had a really cool sentence. Congrats, Jennifer! Nora will be heading your way. :)

Now let's move onto this week's FIRST AND LAST. I will not give any hints--just the sentences as they are. Here goes.


FIRST AND LAST Monday -- What book is this?

Miller snapped off the ignition and sagged against the seat.  “You’ll manage. You’re one tough engineer lady. That’s one of the things I love about you.”

Ooohhh. This one might not be so easy? Any thoughts as to the book? Author? What sentences would you write in between the two? I leave it in your capable hands. Let the commenting begin for a chance to win FRESHLY DEAD!
