Happy Sunday!

I'm glad to see that everyone survived Friday the 13th! I hope everyone has had a good weekend so far. I've been working hard on two Christmas stories I hope to submit by the end of the month. Other than that, there's not much going on. I'm happy to announce that as of right now, Angel's Redemption is still number six on Silver Publishing's bestseller list! I don't know for how much longer it'll be there, but I'm still excited about it and very thrilled that there seems to be many people who are liking it and loving Jackson and Elijah.

I thought I would share my latest picture of Snow White. Her family took her to Texas last week where she enjoyed her first Texas Ranger game and knowing her mother, LOTS of shopping! As you can see, my niece is a girly girl, by the pink cowboy hat with the bling bling hanging from it!

Have a great Sunday!

*Hugs*

I Wanna Be With U

We kept our niece, Snow White, last week. We had a blast playing with her and watching endless hours of cartoons like Space Jam and Who Framed Roger Rabbit. We colored and painted everyday. She gave us laughter and many smiles while she was here. She became fascinated with our small garden, and had to water it and pick vegetables with her Uncle everyday. As you can see from the picture above, once her Uncle Boo showed her how to make mud pies, that girl was hooked!

We had so much fun with her, and when she left the house became quiet, and it was strange for her Uncle and I to get back into our routine. We loved keeping her, and her Mama has promised to let us do it again before she goes to kindergarten this fall.

One thing about Snow White is: she loves to sing! I thought I would share the song that is currently her favorite. It's 'I Wanna Be With U' by the Fun Factory. If we heard it once, we heard it a hundred times, but now I can't seem to get it out of my head. It must be because I miss her.

I'll be busy this week editing my upcoming release A Hold on His Heart and working on my Christmas stories this year.  I'm also thrilled that my new release, Angel's Redemption, is currently number seven on Silver Publishing's new release top ten list. Who knows for how long, but I'm still thrilled anyway:)

I hope everyone has a great week ahead! *Hugs*

Angel's Redemption is released!

YAY! The time is here! Angel's Redemption is finally out today! Although, I'm thrilled about it's release, I'm also very nervous about it too. This is by far the longest book I've written, and I've also worked on it, off and on, for the past couple of years. I hope everyone will love Jackson and Elijah as much as I do and that their story puts a smile on my readers faces.

I've also notified all of the winners to my contest, BUT I do have two winners that still need to get in contact with me. The two winners are: Dre and ispringle 1. Please email me at andianderson@live.com with Angel's Redemption in the subject line and I'll send your book to you ASAP!

I also want to thank all of my readers for their kind words and support you've given me these past few months. I really appreciate it. *Hugs*

Contest to win a copy of Angel's Redemption

I've had a busy few days. We went to Little Rock to spend time with my niece on her fifth birthday and had a blast with her. Now that she's five, she officially believes she's a 'big girl' now, and in some ways she IS getting older and starting to change from a toddler to a young girl. Sigh.

It was really great spending time with my family. We were thrilled to visit with another favorite niece of mine, Katelyn and her little girl. (We'll call her Ariel...lol) Ariel is a year younger than Snow White and has the cutest little laugh and personality! We loved visiting with them and I hope we get to again in the near future. I'd post some pictures of them, but since I haven't spoken to my niece about it yet, I won't. If she gives me permission, you'll see how sweet and adorable Ariel really is.

We had a great time, but we were glad to come home. I think all of us were exhausted from the heat, so it was nice to return home and relax in the cool air. As you can tell by the picture taken of my dog, we were all ready to relax for a few

Today I finished the final edits for Angel's Redemption. I'm ready for it to be released, but I'm a little nervous about it too. I really hope that people love Jackson and Elijah as much as I do. I've also decided to throw a contest for several readers to win a copy of it too. All you have to do to enter the contest is: email me at andianderson@live.com with the word 'Contest' in the subject line by June 29th and you'll be automatically entered.

I hope everyone has a great week! *hugs*

Angel's Redemption is coming soon!

YAY! I'm super excited about my upcoming release, Angel's Redemption. It's the fourth book in the Men of Charlestown series and it's my favorite so far. It's due to be released June 30th and can already be pre-ordered from Silver Publishing.

I hope everyone has a great weekend!!

Here is the blurb for Angel's Redemption:

Since Jackson's partner died, life has become one big routine. When he meets his neighbor, Elijah, he's intrigued by the mysterious man and the somber world Jackson has lived in becomes something exciting and beautiful.

Elijah needed a fresh start. When he was younger, he worked in the dark world of pornography. Life was spinning out of control from drug abuse and living an existence he despised living. Finding the strength to change, he moves to Charlestown. He meets, Jackson, he feels a connection with him he's never felt before.

Elijah is frightened to reveal his past. Fear of losing the one man he's come to rely keeps him silent and Elijah becomes determined to be the man who is worthy of Jackson's love. When Elijah's secrets are revealed, will Jackson be able to see past his former life and stand proudly beside the man Elijah is today?

I have Cover Art!!

I have cover art!!

Reese Dante has finished the cover art for Angel's Redemption. It's the fourth book in my Men of Charlestown series and it's due to be released with Silver Publishing at the end of next month! I think she's captured Jackson and Elijah wonderfully, as well as the tone of the story in general.

Here is the unofficial blurb to Angel's Redemption:

Since Jackson’s partner died, life is one big routine. When he meets his neighbor, Elijah, he’s intrigued by the mysterious man, and his somber world becomes exciting and beautiful.

Elijah needed a fresh start after working in the dark world of pornography. Finding the strength to move away from drug abuse and his despised existence, he moves to Charlestown and discovers a connection with Jackson unlike anything before.

Fear of losing the one man he’s come to rely on keeps Elijah silent even as he grows determined to be a man worthy of Jackson’s love. When Elijah’s secrets are revealed, will Jackson be able to see past his former life and stand proudly beside the man Elijah is today?

Wednesday Eye Candy NSFW

I finished my first round of edits for Angel's Redemption, so to celebrate AND to get us through the week, here's some sexy Eye Candy for all of us to enjoy!! As usual, a very special thank you to my dear friend, Z!!

Have a great weekend:)

It's been a very good weekend. I found out yesterday my latest submission, A Hold On His Heart, was accepted for publication at Silver Publishing! I'm pretty excited about it and whenever I find out the date they expect to publish it, I'll definitely let everyone know.

I've been working hard on my current WIP. Originally I planned to complete it and submit it as part of Silver Publishing's 'Father's Day' submission call, but once I finished it I decided to hold off on it. After I read through it, I really felt the need to revamp it a little and turn it from a Novella to a full length Novel. I think my characters have more to say than what they did, so I'll be continuing to work on it and hopefully get it finished and submitted soon.

I've also been working on the first round of edits for Angel's Redemption. It is the next book in my Men of Charlestown series and the story revolves around Jackson (who makes his first appearance in Daniel's Dream) and Elijah's story. I've been working on Angel's Redemption on and off for over a year, so I'm both excited and nervous about its release. I'm still not exactly sure what day it will be released, but if I had to guess I would say probably the end of May or beginning of June.

My grandmother has been doing better. She still has days she's not feeling as strong and healthy as she should, so I still worry about her. I guess I probably always will. If my grandfather was still alive they would have celebrated their 66th wedding anniversary a few days ago. Isn't that amazing? My grandparents had a strong marriage and when my grandfather died, my grandmother had to really pick herself up and learn to live an independent life. There are so many things I admire and love about her and her zest for life is one of those things. The picture above is of my grandparents. It was taken not long after they married. I love this picture because it shows how playful they were, and how much they loved each other.  I thought since I've been talking about them, I would share it with you.

I hope everyone has a happy weekend.

Happy Friday the 13th!!

I've been working on my current WIP and I just received the first round of edits for Angel's Redemption, so I'll be writing and editing this weekend. I hope everyone has great luck today and a fantastic weekend:)

Happy News on St. Patrick's Day

I've received some great news on St. Patrick's Day! The fourth book in the Men of Charlestown series, Angel's Redemption, was accepted by Silver Publishing and the contract is already signed and sealed. I'm not sure when the book will be published yet, but I'll let y'all know as soon as I find out for sure. I'm really happy about this because I've been writing Angel's Redemption on and off for a couple of years now. I hope that everyone who reads it will believe that it's a great addition to the series...we'll have to wait and see:)

I've been spending some quality time with my niece and sister. We've had a great time playing dress up, coloring and watching HOURS of Smurfs. I will miss her when she's gone, but I'm ready to not watch the little annoying blue people for a while. 

Have a great St. Patrick's Day and a wonderful weekend:)

Because everyone loves a sweet romance...

Happy Friday!

This has been a pretty good week and hopefully I'll have a productive weekend. I still haven't heard whether or not Silver liked the two manuscripts I submitted last week, and because of it, I've been stalking my email like some crazy person. I'm currently working on the fifth Men of Charlestown book and the next Sons of Aphrodite or Kissed by an Immortal book. It's a hard choice because they are all waiting impatiently in line for their stories to be told.

Don't you love the picture above? I love that kiss! It's so lovely and romantic, I thought it would start off our weekend with some sweetness. We all need a little sweet romance in our lives, right?  I certainly think so!

May your weekend be filled with love and romance...even if it's from reading a good book or two:)

Have a great weekend everyone! *HUGS*

Kissed by Death is released today!!

It's been a great week. Today my newest book, Kissed by Death is being released through Silver Publishing and I'm super excited about it! I've also been writing like crazy this week. I submitted the next book in the Men of Charlestown series, Angel's Redemption AND I also submitted a stand alone book called, A Hold on His Heart for their Brainy Guys submission call.  I've already started stalking my email and I'll definitely let y'all know what happens one way or the other.

I'm now working on two books. I'm working on the next Sons of Aphrodite book and the next book in the Men of Charlestown series. I hope to have at least one of them done by the end of March. 

I hope everyone has a great weekend! It's sunny and beautiful here in the sticks, we certainly did not have much of a winter here.

*Hugs*

Ahh...Eye Candy!

Happy Eye Candy Wednesday!

It's been a good week for me. I finished and submitted the next book in the

It's contest time again!!

YAY! Friday is finally here!! I've had a pretty good week. I'm feeling better, got to spend Valentine's Day with my husband and finished the final edits for my upcoming release, Kissed by Death. I should be receiving my author's copies any day now, so to celebrate I thought I would throw another contest to win a PDF copy of it.

I'm also ALMOST finished with Angel's Redemption. I will be finished with it before the week is over and so far, I've been happy with the way it's turned out. As soon as it's finished and submitted, I'll be going back to work on my 'Mind is a Beautiful Thing' submission for Silver Publishing. After I finish it, I'll be starting the next story in the Sons of Aphrodite series and hopefully soon, I'll be working on a project with a very dear friend of mine and author, Freddy MacKay. I love her work and I'm thrilled that her latest book, Beginning Again, is being released the same day as my newest release, Kissed by Death.

I hope everyone has a great weekend and don't forget to enter my contest:)

Happy Valentine's Day!!

Happy Valentine's Day!

I hope everyone is having a great holiday today!! I'm feeling better today. I've got my final edits for Kissed by Death to do and I'm still working on Angel's Redemption. I'm pretty happy about my husband being off of work today. It'll be nice spending my day with my Valentine.

If you are looking for a Romantic Valentine's Day read, check out my latest release, No Greater Love. It's a story about Eros (Cupid) who is looking for his own true love.

I hope everyone has a fantastic day! *Hugs*

Eye Candy and a beautiful smile to get us through the week

So far, it's been a good week. I've been working hard on the next two books in the Men of Charlestown series, and I'm getting pretty excited about both of them. I hope to have them (or at least one) of them done by the end of the month. Plus, I've been anxious about my upcoming release 'No Greater Love' in two weeks and my all day take over of Silver Publishing's facebook page on January 29th.

To celebrate my upcoming release, I thought I might share a little eye candy with you. I love this picture because not only is he very nice to look at, he's got a beautiful smile too.

If you want to check out the official blurb on No Greater Love, here is the link to check it out:

Have a great week:)

Sometimes we need something pretty to look at...

Hey Y'all:)

While I've been working hard on my current WIP, I'm still waiting to see if they liked Kissed by Death or not. I'll be checking my email constantly until I hear something. I hope I don't drive myself crazy in the meantime. LOL!

I also need to let y'all know that blogger is not allowing me to comment on my blog or other people's blogs. I've been to the 'help' department and apparently it's been happening to more people than myself. I'm trying to figure out what's going on, so in the meantime, please know that I'm reading all of my friends blogs and the comments you make on mine. Thank you for your comments. I really appreciate them.

I came across this picture and knew immediately that we all needed some delicious eye candy to gaze upon today. I hope you enjoy him...I sure have!

Have a great day!

A few updates and a much needed Vacation

It's been a great week so far. Saturday my first book in print, Men of Charlestown Volume One was released and I'm still super excited about it! I've also completed the first round of edits for my third book in the Men of Charlestown series, Daniel's Dream. I figure the second round of edits will arrive in my inbox any time now. I'm ready to get them done and for Daniel's Dream to be released on June 18th. I really enjoyed writing more about Nick, Josh and Daniel. They are some of my favorite characters and it was fun revisiting them for a while.



I've had several people write and ask me how many books will be in the Men in Charlestown series. As of right now, there will be around eight of them with the last book being Daniel's. I figure since he started it all with his Christmas wish, he deserves his happy ending too!

I'm currently doing last minute pre-edits for No Greater Love (due to released in January) and my current work in process, Angel's Redemption, is going going fast and smooth. I love it when that happens:)

My husband is off of work this week. He's taking a well-deserved vacation and we've been hanging out around the house, catching up on movies we've missed and we plan on having one day where we just get in the car and see where it takes us. I think we'll probably go into Oklahoma and maybe hit a casino or two. :)

So, if you don't see me around very much this week, you know why. (It's my husband's fault) Y'all have a great week!

Tea Parties and Gorgeous Cover Art:)

Hey y'all:)

For the past two days my husband and I have been visiting my family in Little Rock. Of course, we had at least a thousand tea parties with my niece complete with lots of snuggles and kisses from her too!

When we arrived home, the amazing cover artist, Reese Dante, had this little jewel waiting for me in my inbox! Here is the official cover for my next book, Men of Charlestown 3: Daniel's Dream. It's going to be released Father's Day weekend and I can't wait!

My goal this week is to finish No Greater Love and get a lot written on Angel's Redemption, will be the 4th book in the MIC series.

I hope y'all have a great weekend:)

Spring Forward

Can you believe it's already time to spring our clocks forward? I don't know about y'all, but I've been ready for Spring for months! I've missed the colorful flowers and lush green leaves on the trees. I'm ready to break out some of my cute sandals and put away my clunky winter shoes! Woo Hoo!

It's been a busy week this week. My mother, Ashley and Snow White came over and spent a couple of days with us. It's amazing how fast my niece is growing! It was great having some quality time with them and as usual, time flies when we're all together. Lucky for us we'll be seeing them this coming Friday. We're all meeting at my Grandmother's house and spending the day with her. That will be a fun filled day for sure!

Unfortunately now, my husband Chris is sick. He's running a temperature and has a bad head cold. It must be going around because Ashley said that Snow White is sick, my mother-in-law is sick and I've read that Shayne is sick. I'm keeping my fingers crossed for everyone to have a speedy recovery really soon!




I haven't had any time to write this week. Staring tomorrow (hopefully) I'll be working on my two projects. I'm continuing to work on Angel's Redemption which is Jack and Riley's story and I'm starting a new book tomorrow. I'm planning on submitting at least two Blue Collared themed books to Amber Quill Press within the next couple of months. I've been brainstorming the storyline with my sister and Jack and I think I've got a good handle on what I'm going to write.

Now all I have to do is get it written and submitted. Whew! I'm already tired!



I will have to take time out to read Shawn Lane's newest book, Only in his Dreams, tomorrow. This is the first book in her highly anticipated "Only" series and I can't wait to read it! It's going to be great!

I hope y'all have a great weekend!
