BTW, I can’t resist crowing just a bit. THE WAGONMASTER is still FB’s #1 Bestseller at Fictionwise and now it’s also their #1 Highest Rated! I must say that I am completely honored by that ranking. FB’s books consistently receive high marks at Fictionwise. To be ranked the best (even if it’s only for a short time) is high praise indeed.

Triple WooHoo!
It’s the last day before vacation. That’s the first whoop. LOL I’m looking forward to sandy beaches, blue waters, rest, relaxation, and lots of fun!
The second whoop? I just checked. THE WAGONMASTER is still Freya’s Bower #1 Bestseller at Fictionwise.
But even better– and you probably heard me squealing in delight — THE WAGONMASTER is also now the #1 Highest Rated book for Freya’s Bower!!! WooHoo! That one means an awful lot to me because there are some darn good books put out by FB.
I’ll be leaving for vacation in a very, very
good mood. LOL

THE WAGONMASTER
Coming November 25th!
Medical school taught Dr. Adelaide Jennings that there is no cure for her father’s consumption. Determined to reach him in Oregon before the disease claims him, Addie will risk anything. Even her own life.
Joshua Reynolds escorts people along the arduous and dangerous Oregon Trail. He cannot force the members of the train to allow an unwed woman to join them. But the foolish doctor is determined to make the journey, even if she has to go alone. To protect the willful young woman, Josh agrees to marry Addie in name only. Together, they embark on a journey that tests their mettle, challenges their beliefs, and inflames their senses…but will they be able to resist the temptation to make their marriage a real one?
Excerpt:
“Damnation, woman! What happened?”
Tears threatened, but she clenched her jaw and answered, “I’ve stepped on something.” Peaceful Warrior dvd download Copying Beethoven
He squatted beside her and grasped the foot she held off the ground. Addie placed her hands on his shoulders to steady herself. “I’m pretty sure it’s still in there. Can you remove it?” The initial shock of the injury began to recede, but she still couldn’t seem to catch her breath. His rough hand slid down her bare calf to cup her heel.
“That’s some splinter you got there. Hold still.”
Hold still? How could she possibly move? She tilted her head back and sucked in a strangled breath. The man’s hands sent a new kind of shiver through her.
He pulled the offending sliver of wood from the tender sole of her foot. “There.” His voice sounded strained, and she looked down into his dark brown eyes. The look they held both frightened and intrigued her. Her heart leapt as his hand glided back up her calf. He stood slowly, his hand continuing higher over her thinly covered thigh and hip. His palm settled in the small of her back. Her eyes never left his. She simply couldn’t look away.
“Woman, I warned you not to tempt me again.” He pressed her against his hard, warm body. She tried to speak, but her voice just wouldn’t work.
Any attempt to talk would have been futile anyway. His head lowered, and his lips slammed down on hers. This was no tender kiss like the one before. Her senses spun with the intensity of it. The pressure eased ever so slightly, and his tongue touched the seam of her lips. She stiffened at the unfamiliar act, and Reynolds’ fingers tangled in her hair and gave a sharp yank.
Addie gasped, allowing that sinful tongue to sneak into her mouth. And all thought vanished. She moaned, surrendering to the passion that gripped her. He answered with a groan. The sound sent a wave of heat through her. His tongue caressed hers, and she melted, seemingly boneless into his arms, the sensation exquisite. Never had she imagined such pleasure. His hands slid down her back to grasp her hips and pull them against his. The hard ridge of his arousal nudged her belly, but she couldn’t push him away. She had no desire to do so. She wanted to remain right here in his arms, pressed against his incredibly fascinating body. She wanted….
