Description

Haunted by her twin sister’s disappearance when they were only fifteen, Whitney has made finding people her life’s work. When her most recent boyfriend pushes for a commitment, she flees and finds herself at a strange psychic’s shop. The woman gives her hope that her sister is still alive, but also warns that something evil and supernatural is coming for her. Returning home, Whitney pursues the lead the mystic offered. The lead brings her to a strange world she wasn’t prepared for.

Coming to her aid, a sexy Robin Hood saves her life not once but twice, yet she has a hard time trusting her begrudging savior. Something is very wrong about his world of lost things, but Whitney only wants to find her sister and get them both home. Her attraction to the warrior only complicates her search. His world is fraught with danger, but she finds passion in his arms.

Santa and Reindeer and Elves, Oh My!!

This time of year is one of religious significance for a lot of people, whether you’re Christian, Jewish, Pagan, celebrate Kwanza or just like to reflect and give thanks for the blessings the old year has brought.

But it’s also a time to P-A-R-T-Y!  I love it when there’s a humorous bent to serious things. The holidays bring a lot of joy and fun but also a lot of stress, and laughter is a proven stress reliever.

Funny Christmas commercials on TV just crack me up. Like Ancestry.com Santa. (the second one regarding elf death records and polar bears is my favorite).
I also really enjoy those All State Mayhem Guy ads. Did you know the Mayhem guy has his own Facebook page? I like this one the best about snow on the roof.

I think that’s why I usually go for a lighter, funnier take when I’m writing Christmas stories. In Naughty, which coincidentally releases today (wink), a real life Christmas elf arrives on the scene to fulfill the heroine’s Christmas wish–here’s a hint: she ain’t wishing for Tiddly Winks, especially when Mr. tall, dark and sexy walks in on her bath!
So go ahead–have a look at the videos and giggle away some of that holiday stress. Let me know which of these you like, or tell me what your favorite humorous commercial is so I can have a giggle, too :)

And don’t forget that Naughty is available today for a very merry $1.95. And I’m taking over the Whispers Facebook page tomorrow. Games, trivia, videos, excerpts, prizes and eye candy will abound.

Have a great day!
