Hey Reader,

I hope you had a great weekend and are having a great week! My thanks to everyone who stopped by the Celebrating Our Heroes event last week. Wasn't that FUN?

Posts are still there, of course, if you want to go visit now in Lynne Lanning's Facebook group, BookTalk!

I didn't get a chance to stop in on Saturday because...

Last weekend I got to be at a writers conference on the campus of the Colorado Christian University, which was the first in-person writers conference I had been to since the pandemic shut everything down. What an inspiring time being among other writers!

I met so many people. And I got to teach two workshops: one on marketing for authors and the other an introduction to screenwriting. Both workshops were very well received which is just so gratifying and encouraging to me.

But I have NEWS! It's a... <drummmmm rolllll>

​

​New Cover Reveal!​

​Rule #5 Dads Love Diamonds, Too in A Clean Rules For Dating A Single Dad Romance series is coming June 5th! To be honest, I'm still writing this one! So I've got to create a lot of words to get it done on time.

But the story is available for pre-order now here.

This is a brand new series of stand-alone stories written by different authors. These books can be read in any order. The series starts releasing June 1st. You can find the whole series here.​

Here's an inside secret: both this story and Rule #5 You're Also Dating Her Family in the Single Moms series introduce characters and locations -- a flower shop and a jewelry story -- that I hope to write more about in the future! Just have to find (or MAKE) the time in my schedule... Here's more about this story:

Keith Murphy adopted his niece, Madalyn, eleven years ago and, since then, he always pushed romance away to focus on raising her and his construction business. Now that she’s about to be a teenager, it’s the right time to give her the diamond that belonged to his mother. Diamonds are a girl’s best friend, right?
​
But when Madalyn sees a poster for a Mother/Daughter softball tournament, all she wants for her thirteenth birthday is to play. Unfortunately, to make the team, she must have a mother.
​
​Raelene Roberts owns the local spirit store where all the teams get their uniforms and pro-team garb. She loves running her own business so much she never found time for romance, fearing it might slow her down and mean she’d have to sell out. But never marrying also meant no daughters. So, she coaches the local Mother/Daughter softball team so that everyone else can play in the tournament, leaving her on the sidelines. All Rae ever really wanted was to play.
​
When Keith approaches that lady he saw at the Sparkles Jewelry Store about a fake engagement that would qualify Madalyn to play, Rae jumps at the chance…if Keith will take her place as the coach.
​
When the team girls and parents start asking questions about Rae’s sudden engagement, can Keith, Madelyn, and Rae keep their secrets? Or will the truth be exposed and disqualify their entire team?
​
And when the tournament is over and the fake engagement ends, will Keith and Rae find love on the softball diamond?

New Release in the Historical Romance series Mountain Men - Longing Hearts In The Wilderness​

My book in this series is Theo's Specter which released on April 29th. Well, the newest book in this wonderful series releases TODAY! Meet Samuel, author Kandice E. Geddes' hunky cover guy in Samuel's Search.

​

Forbidden love, revenge, and struggling to survive…​
​Nothing will stop Samuel from finding the woman he loves.

For Samuel Cartwright, living the life of a mountain man is full of strenuous days and even lonelier nights, with danger oftentimes lurking around every bend. But no matter the unpredictability he faces, trapping and trading provide a certain rhythm he’s grown accustomed to.

All of that changes, however, one dark and stormy night—his entire world flipped upside down—when a beautiful Shoshone woman wanders into his camp with no memory and frozen with fright. Her sad, dark eyes beckon to him, and he quickly finds that no matter the risk, he’ll do anything to help her, even if that means disrupting the good relations he has with the local tribes.

After a tragic event ravages Samuel’s home, the woman who is quickly filling every piece of his lonely heart goes missing. Desperate and struggling with injuries, nothing will stop him until he finds her, even if that means facing the forces seeking to destroy them both.

Get Samuel's Search by Kandice D. Geddes TODAY, here!
