It’s a steamy reunion between a single mum and the billionaire who got away!
Former ski champion Conor Kavanagh enjoys a challenge. And he’s encountered no challenge more arousing than Ellie Porter. Once, she broke his heart. Now that she’s back in town? He can’t seem to stay away…
But Ellie has changed. Widowed, with a baby, she has responsibilities — and secrets — weighing her down. Still, his desire for her is undeniable. Surely, he can have her without giving up his heart — or his daredevil ways? He’s willing to risk it all to find out…

Summer Vacation
Does your
family take a vacation every summer? Are you beach people, or do you
enjoy staycations? Visiting relatives? Theme parks?
Over the
years, our family has tried all of those and more.
But
confession time: I may be a bit of an overpacker! When it comes to
summer travel—or any trip for that matter—I like to cover a wide
range of contingencies. I’ve even been known to use a laminated
packing list. (I know…I need therapy. Ha!)
It would
help if I had minions…not the yellow kind, but ones who do the
heavy lifting. The rich and famous have minions. Hairstylists, social
secretaries, accountants, nutritionists, trainers. The list goes on.
If I had a support team like that, I’d travel with ease.
Silver
Glen, North Carolina, the fictional home of my seven sexy Kavanagh
brothers, is a beautiful, upscale town where movie stars,
entertainers and other high-profile figures come to power down and
relax away from the paparazzi. I’ve had fun creating the community
from scratch. I know and love the mountains of North Carolina, so it
wasn’t a stretch for me to invent a very special hometown for my
Kavanagh guys.
When I head
out on the road, though, I love to explore places I’ve never been
before. When our girls were ten and fourteen, we spent six weeks in
Wyoming. We traveled on a strict budget—not camping, but staying in
a lot of mom-and-pop motels that looked like something out of a movie
set.
It was an
adventure, to say the least. We still talk about those days as a
high-water mark for our family. All our stuff was packed into a van
with a fiberglass “snail” carrier on top. We had coats for when
it snowed in Jackson Hole in the Fourth of July. We had shorts for
the sunny days when hikes were hot. We had rain gear…medical
supplies…cameras and, yes, even film. We call those the good old
days…but it would have been nice to have had an iPhone!
It’s a
treat for me to write books about places I love, whether they’re
fictional settings or real spots on the map. When I was younger, I
devoured Harlequin Romances, especially the ones set in England,
Australia and New Zealand. I learned a lot of geography from those
wonderful books!
I hope
you’ll take Conor Kavanagh home with you in August. Second
Chance with the Billionaire
is a heartfelt, sexy story about resurrecting an old love. Thanks for
supporting romance and extra thanks for reading my books. I truly
appreciate each one of you!

I'm an overpacker too! Always afraid I'll forget something I'll need. And I'd love some minions too! Thanks for stopping by Snowdrop Dreams to let my readers know about your latest release.

Growing up my family went on summer vacations every year. We'd load up our van and drive to our destinations. We've been all over the U.S.: Montana, Florida, Louisiana, Florida, South Dakota, Missouri, Tennessee, New York, Canada, Utah, Arizona, New Mexico, Wyoming, and others. We've gone to Mount Rushmore, Grand Canyon, Silver Dollar City, Six Flags, Universal Studios, Sea World. I miss going on trips but not the riding in a van. Thanks for having the giveaway.
ReplyDeleteThanks for entering Rose! Sounds like you've traveled a lot in the summer. I can't blame you for not wanting to be stuck in the van so much, but I bet you have such wonderful memories of your travels! Hope you liked Canada when you visited.
