C.D. Hersh New Release!

Posted March 23, 2017 By Linda

 

I’d like to welcome C.D. Hersh who are celebrating the release of Can’t Stop the Music, part of The Soul Mate Tree Collection! Congratulations! 

Meet C.D. Hersh ~ Two hearts creating everlasting love stories.

Putting words and stories on paper is second nature to co-authors C.D. Hersh. They’ve written separately since they were teenagers and discovered their unique, collaborative abilities in the mid-90s. As high school sweethearts and husband and wife, Catherine and Donald believe in true love and happily ever after.

The books of their paranormal romance series entitled The Turning Stone Chronicles are available on Amazon. They also have a short Christmas story, Kissing Santa, in a Christmas anthology titled Sizzle in the Snow: Soul Mate Christmas Collection, with seven other authors.

They are looking forward to many years of co-authoring and book sales, and a lifetime of happily-ever-after endings on the page and in real life.

 

The Soul Mate Tree legend:

I am old, I am ancient, my purpose is clear

To give those who are needy a treasure so dear.

They who come to my roots, touch my bark, stroke my leaves

Find the soul of their lives if they but believe.

When I call and you listen, your prize will be great

If your heart remains open and you don’t hesitate.

Do you yearn? Be you lonely? Is your time yet at hand?

Reach for me and I’ll give to you. I’m yours to command.

For your trust, for your faith, keep my secrets untold

And I’ll gift you forever, to have and to hold.

An ancient legend spanning eras, continents, and worlds. To some, it’s nothing more than a dream. To others, a pretty fairy tale handed down through the generations.

For those in critical need of their own happy ending, a gift.

 

Can’t Stop the Music (The Soul Mate Tree)

For college senior and hippie wannabe Rosemary—Rose for short—a teaching job is within her grasp, but she wants more. She wants love, the kind of love that has bound her parents for so many years. When she’s dumped by her current boyfriend because her morals can’t bring her to give in to free love, she finds herself at Woodstock in the middle of the biggest free-love, music festival of the Sixties. Alone, again. Until a magical tree grants her wish and she finds the man of her dreams—and loses him before she really knows who he is.

 

Dakota meets the girl of his dreams at Woodstock, but a jealous wannabe girlfriend drives them apart before he can discover Rose’s last name and where she comes from. After he sees a disappearing tree that promises him true love, a frantic search to find Rose comes up empty-handed.

Magic and music brings them together at Woodstock in 1969. Misunderstandings tear them apart. Will two flower children find one another again, or live with missed opportunities?

Perfectly ChristmasPerfectly Christmas (Book 5, The Perfectly Series)

On the first day of Christmas, his true love said to him, “Sorry, I have to work.”

That’s the life of a surgeon, and Dr. Madison Hayes wouldn’t have it any other way.

Dr. Quinn Malone has another priority. In the countdown to Christmas, he needs to convince his old flame that there’s more to life – and love – than the job itself.

This time, his heart is in it for the long haul. Really.

Romantic and . . . complicated – it’s Perfectly Christmas!

 

 

A Perfectly Unpredictable Moment

Posted March 9, 2017 By Linda

I was at the train station yesterday, and I started chatting to a woman who was traveling to Montreal. She was flying to Paris and then taking a connecting flight to Nice. I asked her if she was attending the International Forum of Neuroscience. She said …. no. 😀

 

Perfectly Unpredictable 

Kalia Beck always dreamed of starting a family, living in a house with a white picket fence, and finding her soul mate. Just not in that order. Kalia is coping with an unplanned pregnancy when she learns the father has passed away. She soon finds out that single parenthood isn’t easy, especially when the only thing that soothes the baby is the guitar-playing of a reluctant and reclusive next-door neighbor.

Mack Challen, lead guitarist in a rock and roll band, knows it takes a village to raise a child. He just doesn’t think there’s a village big enough to help “gay momma” and her screaming baby.

Kalia and Mack aren’t looking for love and aren’t ready for each other, but when the future unfolds, it’s … Perfectly Unpredictable.

I’m sharing my inspiration for Perfectly Together on author and screenwriter Leslie Ann Sartor’s Indie Adventure Blogspot. Join me HERE!

 

Perfectly Together ~ Perfectly Series, Book 6

Newly graduated naturopathic doctor Jayden Locke has a dream – start a practice in small-town Emerson and never move again. She’s found the perfect office building to buy. It passes an inspection, design plans are drawn up, and the bank okays the loan. Only one problem.

Dr. Cole Cameron scoops it before she has a chance to submit an offer. What?

It’s a good investment. Cole isn’t interested in settling down. He works three jobs in three different towns and would just as soon keep moving. But something about Jayden’s defiant eyes and sexy smile makes him pause and reconsider.

What are the chances that a heart filled with wanderlust and a soul longing for a home fit Perfectly Together?

Perfectly Together Fun Fact #3

Posted February 13, 2017 By Linda

The release day for Perfectly Together has been set for February 14!! It will be a Valentine’s treat. 😀

In the meantime, I thought I’d share some Perfectly Together fun facts.

Having a cover designed is one of the best parts of the publishing process. It’s when the vision of my book and characters really come alive. I thought I’d share the evolution of the covers. The design on the left was the first iteration by graphic designer Rae Monet, and the design on the right is the final. I thought the red font of the title was too busy, and I asked if the background behind the couple could be white to match the other books in the series. It’s a little plainer but I like the simplicity. I thought the chalet vector in the lower left captured the essence of the building that Jayden loves. The two hearts with stethoscopes represent the two doctors in the story.

 

 

 

The e-version of the book only shows a front cover, but I also get print copies so I need a back cover as well. The original design of the back cover featured the Home Sweet Home sentiment which fit the story, but was a little too homey. Graphic designer Karen Duvall found 2 other cool graphics – one of a set of skis and the other, a ski hill. The ski hill was my vision of the panoramic view Jayden has when she looks out her window. And it’s blue so it matches the Interlock Publishing logo!

 

 

Decisions made – the covers are at the printer and I should have print copies in a couple of weeks. Very exciting!
