Nominated..TWICE! Yippee and yee-haw...most of all, thanks, God!

I'm thrilled, humbled and honored that two of my books, Faithful Danger and Sanctuary, are among the ten nominated in the Inspirational category of the 2011 CAPA Awards at the Romance Studio.

I think all of my books are books of the heart in some way, else I wouldn't bother to fill the pages, but these two are pretty land-mark for me. Faithful Danger is my first-ever suspense story. Caffey Matthews, a  young widow escapes to California's beautiful Santa Ynez valley to hide from enemies of her late husband, a white-collar criminal hang. She manages to hang on to her faith while danger lurks...and she finds herself drawn to a mysterious cowboy, Rhee Ryland, unbeknownst a high-priced P.I. hired to find her who's falling in love himself...

And Sanctuary is devoted to my husband, a testicular cancer survivor, and our dear family friend battling glioma. A love story full of heart and hope between Hooper Martin, foreman of the Hearts Crossing Ranch, and a beautiful wedding visitor, Mallie Cameron, will really make you feel at home at the ranch.

I have to admit, the last six weeks have been pretty heard about the homestead as one of my beloved family members struggles with a serious problem that kinda tainted our holiday spirit. so these nominations arriving two days before Christmas really reminded me, once again, Who's in charge.

Aw I wish had the trust in God that I give my characters...I think that better be my New Years Resolution.
Oh yeah I know this logo is from last year...when I was nominated for Favorite author. Wow, what a year it's been since then.

Merry Christmas..it might be the 28th but Christmas is still going on in my opinion, and happy new year to y'all.

Love from me to you! oxox
