Book News and a Sale That Ends Tonight

If you’ve been around lately, you’ll know how busy I’ve been writing and editing.

But what you might not know is I have two new releases and a sale that include romance for just about everyone!

It’s been a long time since I last wrote something non-spicy—not since All Good Stories, in fact.

So if you like wholesome love stories, you’ll enjoy my story in the new Romance Cafe anthology Snowed In With You.

“Lost and Found,” is a sweet, loose retelling of Beauty and the Beast.

Chevonne is hiking on a deserted trail when the snowstorm hits. Her dog runs off when she twists her ankle and falls, and without a phone signal to call her best friend, she’s sunk. Or so she thinks.

Brevin is minutes away from leaving his cabin when he’s approached by a St. Bernard. It convinces him to follow it …

Chevonne is stunned when her high school crush shows up to rescue her. Maybe, just maybe, this will make up for Brevin standing her up years ago. If he even remembers.

Perfect for readers who crave romance with a dose of forced proximity, crackling fireplaces, and cozy winter settings, the Snowed In With You anthology will warm your heart even on the coldest of nights.

If you enjoy medium-spicy romance, my romcom Saddled is on sale today for 99¢.

Saddled is a quirky, slow-burn, forbidden romance between an office manager (Sandra) and the new temp (Michael) who also works as a cowboy stripper on Saturday nights.

Going to the office just got a lot more exciting.

On sale today.

And finally, for the really spicy romance, my why-choose vampire first book in the series, Her Bloody Betrayal, is also on sale today for 99¢. In this MMFM book you can expect:

💔Enemies to lovers

💕They fall first

🧛Battle against evil

🧱Forced proximity

⚔️Swords Cross

You can read more about the entire trilogy at https://lghillbooks.com

And that’s all my news! Thanks for reading. 🥰

Weekended Update

Not to be confused with SNL’s more famous “Weekend Update” sketch.

In book publishing news …

I’m almost finished the edit of Book One of my new vampire series, now entitled “Of Crimson Descent.” Because it’s a reverse harem/why choose romance (one heroine, multiple heroes), I’m planning to release it under the pen name L.G. Hill, just to keep it separate from my other titles. I’m still trying to figure out what I need to do for the new pen name. New social media accounts, maybe? A new website? It’s not as though I’m keeping it a secret or anything, so I’m not sure. That will be something to think about this week.

Anyhoo, I plan to start my proofread a week from tomorrow, to give me time to work on getting Book Two ready for my editor next weekend. And my cover artist is doing an AMAZING job with the mock-ups of the covers. More to come soon.

In weather news …

Snow. And more snow.

Maybe more than we’ve had since I moved here. I was used to it when I lived in the Ottawa area, so it’s kinda nice to see, at least from the other side of the window.

In other story news …

You can now read my short, steamy romantic comedy “Fired Up” in the Just Add Love anthology for free with your Kindle Unlimited subscription. Or you can buy it for $3.99. All proceeds go to The Breast Cancer Research Foundation. I haven’t read the other fifteen stories in the collection yet, but the reviews look great. Check it out!

And that’s it for this Weekended Update. I may keep this as a regular Sunday thing for everyone one to link to. Keep an eye out!
