Why do
I love small town romance? Well, because it’s nice just to sit back sometimes
and enjoy life without the craziness of a big city. I’ve lived in both, big cities
and small towns and I liked both of them. When reading, I don’t have a preference;
it really just depends on my mood at the time.
Even
when I’m writing, sometimes I like the big cites, the far off mountains, or a
small town like Holiday, Montana. I have a new series by that name that is all
about the small town with some holiday paranormals to sweeten the pot. You see,
Holiday myths aren’t myths at all in Holiday, Montana. No, they’re real, and
people are just starting to understand that.
In the
first book, Charmed Spirits, Matt
Cooper is the youngest of the Cooper brothers and has always known magic exists.
After all, the girl who left him had been a witch. Jordan Cross is coming back
to Holiday to find out if she can handle the looks, the speculation, and the
attitude. Oh, she will, she’s stronger than most, but it’s seeing Matt that may
change things.
With
living in a small town, there are no secrets. (At least that’s what they think
anyway.) Jordan was ostracized as a kid because she was different. At least that’s
what she thinks, anyway. In the small town of Holiday, people have a lot to
answer for toward Jordan, and some will do it willingly…some…not so much. Even
though all of that might not sound nice, that doesn’t mean small towns are
horrible. No, people are there for each other, no matter what. And the Cooper
brothers are in the center of that. No matter what happens in Holiday’s future,
the Coopers are there to stay and to help when needed. That’s why I like small
town romance. The people. The romance.

Carrie Ann is giving away a Swag Pack and a $5 Amazon Gift Card to a lucky commenter!
Charmed Spirits
Holiday, Montana Book 1
Jordan
Cross has returned to Holiday, Montana after eleven long years to clear out her
late aunt’s house, put it on the market, and figure out what she wants to do
with the rest of her life. Soon, she finds herself facing the town that turned
its back on her because she was different. Because being labeled a witch in a
small town didn’t earn her many friends...especially when it wasn't a lie.
Matt
Cooper has lived in Holiday his whole life. He's perfectly content being a
bachelor alongside his four single brothers in a very small town. After all,
the only woman he'd ever loved ran out on him without a goodbye. But now
Jordan’s back and just as bewitching as ever. Can they rekindle their romance
with a town set against them?
Warning:
Contains an intelligent, sexy witch with an attitude and drop-dead gorgeous man
who likes to work with his hands, holds a secret that might scare someone, and
really, really, likes table tops for
certain activities. Enough said.

EXCERPT:
“Have
you seen the house yet?” Matt asked, his brows furrowed.
She
shook her head and took her Coke and gum back with a small smile to Mr. Clancy.
“Not yet. I was on my way over there. I just wanted to stop by for a drink.”
She squared her shoulders and started toward the exit.
“You
might find more than you bargained for if you want to get out quick.”
Jordan
stopped and pivoted toward him. “Why? It should only take a few days to clean
it out then slap on some paint, right?”
Matt
shook his head and put his thumbs in his belt loops—too sexy. “Your grandmother
got real sick at the end, and none of us knew.” Sadness washed over his face,
and Jordan held back any similar feelings. “It may take more than you
anticipated to get it ready.”
She let
out a sigh and closed her eyes, counting to ten. “Then I’ll just have to deal
with it, won’t I? I’m here for the duration in any case.” After all, she’d quit
her PR job, a job that she hated, so she could find herself. God, how pathetic did that sound?
“Well,
if you need anything, I’m here. And I bet my brothers would help out in a
second.”
Jordan
nodded, a smile forming. Damn those helpful, sexy Cooper brothers. “Thanks, if
I need anything, I’ll holler. But I hope to do most of it on my own.”
