Growing up in the 60's, every TV show and product had its own jingle. You could trust your car to the man who wore the star, or know that Green Acres is the place to be. It was always so much fun to learn the words and music, then hum the ditties while driving the car or mowing the lawn.
As a child, it was always more fun to watch the commercials than the shows. Folger's coffee did a whole series of commercials where the couple met, fell in love, and we got to see them get engaged. Now days, my only highlights are the Wednesday Camel, Tarzan and Jane fighting over directions, and Cookie monster using a smart phone.
Oh for the days of yesteryear.
Happy Wednesday, ya'll.

Two new releases!
Wowzers! What a fantastic month. I'm please to announce two new releases.
Rebel's Crossroad's series has a new short out in print and ebook called Random Acts of Kindness.
Dan Rodgers, the local handyman, seems lost without a wife. When Reverend Finlay preaches a sermon on random acts of kindness, Miss Muriel Lowe sets out to find him one. Her intentions focus on Jocelyn Lankford, Rebel's Crossroads librarian. A little maneuvering after service and before long Dan and Jocelyn are an item.
Well suited for one another, Jocelyn is content to allow romance to enter her life until little Charlie West comes clean about Miss Muriel's payment and how he was instructed to run into her in order for her and Dan to meet. Humiliated, Jocelyn has a few choice words for the local busy body, but she doubts Dan really loves her.
Can Dan convince her that his love is real, or will Miss Muriel's matchmaking ruin their budding romance?
And the third book in the Indigo Series from Fire Star Press, To Lasso Her Heart is being released on February 29th... a leap day release.
Amanda Perry thought she'd put the past behind her when she’d left Indigo Springs on the run. Now, she has pressure from her boss to put together a promotional campaign for Troy Malone—the man she’s tried for years to forget. Can she battle her own feelings and keep her relationship with Troy all business? The secret she carries could destroy him. But keeping a Malone at arm’s length is next to impossible when one look is all it takes TO LASSO HER HEART.

Troy Malone runs the family's dude ranch in Indigo Springs,
where visitors get to experience the thrill of the old west. When Troy goes in
search of a publicity company, he gets far more than he bargained for. Seeing
Amanda Perry, an old flame from the past, makes him curious—learning that she
will be the publicity company’s representative intrigues him even more. When
Amanda left town years ago, she broke his heart. Can he take a chance on her
turning his world upside down again? Will she make or break his dreams this
time around?

So bring on spring and those lazy Saturdays spent reading beneath the shade of a tree. Nothing goes better together than a good book and a cold glass of ice tea.
Happy Reading!

Newsletter
Holy Moley, its hard to believe that the last days of summer are dwindling down. It won't belong before the sound of those early morning school busses will be bringing either joy or saddness to our ears. After the first few days, we'll all have time on our hands for new ideas, new friends, and perhaps an hour or two just for reading.
September is a busy month for me. I'm working hard on a submission for an anthology that is due on the 15th. Yep, you know me well, its not quite ready. I strated three different stories until I found the one that seemed to call my name. I will be finishing that up and finishing some edits for the third book in the Indigo Spring Series entitled, Lasso Her Heart. This will be the last Malone brother to wed. I hope you'll enjoy Troy's story of lost love, redemption, and renewal.
In the coming months, I'll be working on stories for the coming 2016 year. I know that sounds like a long way away but the old time clock seems to be running faster each month for me. I'm just getting used to writing 2015. As time grows nearer, I'll be giving some shout outs about an indie release and another Rebel's Crossroads novel. I hope you'll enjoy them all.
Happy reading,
Nan O'Berry
