The books range on length from novels (60-130,000 words) to novellas (20-40,000 words). My books do have sex between consenting adults. The novellas are mostly ♥♥♥. Novels are ♥♥♥♥. There is some violence and mild profanity.

------holding hands, perhaps a gentle kiss
♥♥ ---- more kisses but no tongue-- no foreplay
♥♥♥ ---kissing, tongue, caressing, foreplay & pillow talk
♥♥♥♥ --all of above, full sexual experience including climax
♥♥♥♥♥ -all of above including coarser language and sex more frequent

Free Days

Hidden Pearl, which is a romantic suspense, has a free day Thursday, April 19. Follow the link under its image if you have not already read it. Always be sure Amazon has the promotion set up right and the book is free.

Some wonder why anybody would do free days. I can't answer for others but it's my way to resurrect a book which might be disappearing on Amazon. For those who do not know, dollars dictate how visible your Kindle book will be. If there are no sales, it soon goes further and further from being seen. At that point, only someone with a lot of time to kill would ever find it if they hadn't already heard of it elsewhere.

Free days don't help with moving a book into better ratings. But they do bring in readers who might then give another of the books by that author a try.

Hidden Pearl has had three covers to date. I liked them all. Readers evidently didn't find them equally of interest. They all revolved around water because at one point, when S.T. and Christine are trying to undo a mystery, they hole up in a friend's second home on the Umpqua River. It is an important time for their relationship. So I went through various ideas until I came up with this cover. For more about the book, check it out on the link alongside here and be sure, if you want it free, that you click on it before midnight when it turns back into a pumpkin.
