Changing the Bad Into the Good
If you use gratitude everyday your life will change in ways
you can’t imagine. It will dissolve negativity. Gratitude is the bridge to love
and nothing negative can exist in love. So when bad thoughts occupy space in
your head you have the power to change this by simply being grateful for things
in your life. You can’t be sad, or depressed or angry when you're grateful. When you find yourself taking that slide to
cranky, and irritated, stop and look around you for things to be grateful for,
look for things that make you happy. Once you start looking, keep looking for
another and another and what happens is those bad feelings that have crept up
on you will suddenly dissolve. You can change anything negative into positive
by doing this.
When problems crop up during your day, learn to not give them
any energy, look for things to be grateful for and what will happen is those
problems will disappear. And the reason they disappear is because you are not
giving them energy.
I remind myself often, and my kids that everything negative and problematic in our
life, we’ve created by our thoughts. And
we don’t even realize sometimes we’ve done it. Because what we think and what
we believe are what we create in our reality. And it’s not about the other
person, you may believe that challenging person you’ve met or who is the source of all your misery is the
problem. Well, they’re not. It’s you, the energy you give to the situation. If
you focus your energy on the problem you
will make the problem bigger. Simply turn away from it, give it no energy and start
looking for things to be grateful for.
One of the things I’ve learned and I stress to my kids, don’t
talk about problems, or gossip about people because this isn’t being grateful
or loving and will come back to you in ways you can’t imagine, and nothing
good. It comes down to, you get back what you put out. I certainly don’t want people
gossiping, making up stories about me, or dissecting my skills as an author, as
a parent, as a community member. So I make a point if someone is gossiping
about another person, I change the subject and end whatever is being said about
that person with something positive.
If you are angry with someone, a spouse, loved one, friend
or someone you met start looking for something to appreciate about that person
and don’t focus on the problems. Feeling the need to vent about a person to a
friend isn’t helping the situation for you. And all you're doing is giving
energy to a bad situation and making it worse. When you start to recognize what
you’re doing with these patterns you can change your entire life for you, for
the better.
Check out Blown Away, The Final Chapter, now available at all online Retailers.
Imagine that the man who's been the source of all your misery shows up on your doorstep. Imagine this man wants your forgiveness for every bad thing he's done to you and your friends. Would you believe him?
Marcie, Maggie, and Diane all have one thing in common: Dan McKenzie, an unscrupulous man who uses women. His motto in life is "Lie, cheat, and steal." He faked his death and tried to frame Maggie's husband with his murder. He blackmailed Marcie to run drugs for him. And Diane, a cop, had to stand by, knowing he was responsible for planting drugs in her partner's locker. He's always walked away scot free. Until now.
As the friends move on with their lives, Maggie and her husband plan for another child after surviving the loss of their daughter. Zac asks Diane to marry him, though he hides a secret from his past that could destroy the future they have planned. And though Marcie and Sam are expecting their second child, their relationship teeters on the brink of disaster.
What these three friends don't expect is that sometimes, life has a way of evening the score.

Romance is in the Air
Welcome to Romance is in the Air Blog Hop. To celebrate the season of romance and one of my favorite special days Valentines day I will be giving away a $25 Amazon Gift Card and one eBook of my new release and the first book of a brand new western romance Series. THE ONE!
Margaret Gordon was a prominent Seattle surgeon until a slip of her knife left a young boy without a future. After being fired, she returns to her family ranch, the perfect spot to hide out from everyone and lick her wounds, with no one around but her horse.
Margaret has never considered herself a horse person. In truth, though, she understands horses better than people. When Joe Wilde, a widower, drives up one morning with a teenage boy and a horse with a problem, Margaret turns into the klutzy misfit she used to be, and the torch she silently carried for Joe all through school is rekindled. However, when smooth-talking Joe convinces Margaret to work with the temperamental horse, she grows closer to Joe's son, Ryan, and soon learns the horse's issues are rooted in problems between the two--especially Ryan's anxiety over the fact that his father is now dating a woman who's only interested in the sexy Joe Wilde, not his misfit of a son.
Ryan wants Margaret to be his mother, so he takes matters into his own hands, setting Margaret in his father's path every chance he gets. Even though sparks fly and sizzle between them, Joe believes Margaret has despised him all his life, and he decides all his rebellious son needs is a mother. When Joe proposes marriage to the wrong woman, his son takes off into the wilderness with only a backpack and a feisty horse.
To Joe's surprise, it's Margaret who saddles up her horse and heads off alone with him over a hundred miles of wilderness in a race against time and the elements to find his son. With Ryan's life in jeopardy, will Margaret be able to put aside her differences with Joe and realize that he's The One?

How to romance your Lady
I thought it would be fun to create a post about all the Alpha’s, the cops, the cowboys and the military captain that I write about, and how each one of them would put together a romantic dinner for his special lady.
Let’s start with sexy Joe Wilde from The One. A man tucked away on his rural acreage in Post Falls Idaho a cowboy barely getting by, and the one woman who he realized is The One, Margaret Tanner a former surgeon who has a gift with horses. Since Joe, is the backyard barbeque type, beers and burgers, and no love for fancy restaurants, he is more likely to try and whip up a dinner, something simple a meatloaf or burgers with a couple beers. This man is not a wine drinker. Then he’d take his girl out on the deck perched on his lap and take in the stars and keep her warm his way.
Now sexy big brother Brad Friessen who you met in The Forgotten Child, has grown up from his days of being a fast talking hot sexy rancher who appreciates beauty vs brains hanging off his arm. No with Emily, the first woman to ever show him what true love meant. He’d hire a sitter and take his sweet wife out to a nice steak dinner in Hoquiam, and maybe finish the evening off with some ballroom dancing, before taking her home and surprising her with whatever new lacy negligee he bought her from Victoria Secret.
Neil Friessen the extravagant middle brother is all class with his million dollar deals and not a hair out of place. No he’d insist on the finest dining experience with no expense spared. He’d whisk his sweet Candy off to Paris to one of the finest dining experiences then on to the theatre for a musical or play or something that’s received a lot of praise, and finish off the evening with an eight thousand dollar bottle of wine. Rose petals scattered to the bedroom and candlelight in the background.
Now baby brother Jed Friessen walked away from his family fortune. A cowboy who insists on doing things his way with no help from anyone. You met him in Fallen Hero and again in Secrets with his sweet wife Diana, the woman he loves more than his next breath. The mother of his children, and a woman he’ll go to his grave protecting. No Jed, would saddle up their horses and whisk Diana off for a picnic in the meadow. Hold hands and lay with her on a blanket under the deep blue sky. With no one around them to interrupt them.
Their wealthy cousin Andy Friessen is a man with a dark side that you first saw in Fallen Hero, but when he rescued his wife Laura this alpha is definitely a force to be reckoned with. You saw this in The Awakening, and then again in Runaway, he’s a man who doesn’t give his heart easily. Andy is a man every woman wants, but few could handle. For his romantic evening he’d make all the arrangements to surprise Laura, including ordering her a stunning cocktail dress that she’d find laid across the bed for her to slip on. He’d arrange for a limo to whisk them away to some out of the way dining experience, a four course meal, and then later dancing would be Salsa and something slow and sexy where he could have his hands all over his wife.
And then there is Eric Hamilton a US Navy Captain from Saved and Vanished, a man who fills many woman dreams of taming. A difficult, strong willed and opinionated man. He’s a military man in the blood, and loves Abby deeply. He’d surprise her with dinner. And it would be something special and creative some cuisine he’d learned from one of the many ports he’d been stationed around the world. He’d cook at home where the kids would be tucked in bed for the night and he’d slip on some romantic music something low and soft and he’d take her in his arms after dinner and dance with her.
Now, let’s move on to Sam Carre the cop and DEA agent you met in, The Choice. He pined for his dead wife for years even though she’d been a dishonest woman on the take. But when he met Marcie she stirred something in him he never dreamed he’d feel. With Marcie, he’d plan a romantic beach getaway, somewhere hot, sandy and exotic where she’d be in a bikini and he could appreciate the view.
Richard McCafferty from Lost And Found, a dark haired sexy man who could turn every woman’s head. A man in partnership with a dishonest scumbag, and really walks a fine line between truth and lies. Richard only has eyes for Maggie, his dark haired wife. Richard is a difficult man to read and you really wouldn’t know what he’d plan, but it would be somewhere private, where he could have his wife alone and his hands all over her. Dinner would be romantic a dark private booth in a restaurant a bottle of red wine and maybe a hotel room for the night.
Now last but not least, Zac, the gorgeous sexy scarred trauma surgeon who carries his own secrets and baggage from his years in the military. Diane’s new man you met in Bounty. He’d keep Diane at home where he could have her all to himself. He wouldn’t take her to his place, he’d cook dinner for her at her place and then he’d put on some soft music and he’d listen to Diane, let her talk and then show her how special she is to him.
There is only one thing all these strong Alpa’s have in common and that is they are strong willed men who are by no means a pushover for anyone. But each one of these sexy complex men has their own story, their own baggage, and each one of them is fiercely protective of his lady.

SECRETS ~ Next in Finding Love ~ THE OUTSIDER SERIES
Sorry everyone for the long gap in between blog posts.
This has been a hectic spring, not only did we take time out for Disneyland, which was awesome. I've been working every spare minute on finishing two books from two series. Today marks the release for SECRETS.
Secrets follows The Awakening in Finding Love~The Outsider Series.
And here it is, available now at Amazon:
"Jed always told me he'd take care of everything. And I believed him, I trusted him, I loved him."
For Diana, Jed was the first man she trusted. He was the first man to show her what true love was. He was the father of her child, the one man she could always count on. Until one spring day Jed falls from the roof of the barn and Diana's world as she knows it begins to unravel.
Diana is forced to face two things, her husband's secrets, and what if... there was no Jed.
