Happy Christmas in July! Welcome to the 9th blog in this Christmas in July Reader Giveaway, which runs July 12-23, 2021.
At the bottom of each author's blog post, you will find the secret words. Write them all down and provide the entire answer on this Google form. To start at the beginning with blog #1, go here
NOTE: You must grab all the secret words from every author in the Christmas in July Reader Giveaway to be eligible to win a $400 Amazon gift card. At the end of this blog post is a link to the next blog, and so on, to the final blog post. At each stop, the author will also give away a copy or copies of their featured Christmas book.
Isn't this a fun way of celebrating Christmas in July? I don't know about you but I'm ready for December. The weather here in the Pacific Northwest has been unusually hot. We're headed into fire season and I'm hoping it won't be a bad year. Last year, all across the country, fires ravaged our forests and tree farms. Tree farms just like the one my heroine in Murder Under the Mistletoe owns and operates. I enjoyed learning about Christmas tree farming while writing this book almost as much as I enjoy visiting Christmas tree farms to pick out the perfect tree, drink some hot chocolate and maybe, if there's snow, have a snowball fight.
Tell me a Christmas Tradition you enjoy in the comments.
I'll be giving away a copy of Murder Under the Mistletoe!
AGENT UNDERCOVER
DEA agent Tyler Griffin must stop a drug cartel that's using an Idaho Christmas tree farm to smuggle narcotics across the Canadian border. But to do his job, Tyler needs the cooperation of farm owner and widowed mother Heather Larson-Randall—whose informant brother died on Tyler's watch. Tyler knows a crucial piece of evidence is hidden somewhere on the property. But getting the protective mother to trust him is the hardest part of his mission. As threats against Heather mount, he vows to keep her and her child safe…and clear the farm of danger before Christmas.
This is part of my series: Northern Border Patrol: Keeping the US-Canadian border safe...
Danger at the Border
Joint Investigation
Murder Under the Mistletoe

I love to find a cozy spot to read. A pillow, a candle and a nice cup of yummy makes the experience so nice. But honestly, I can read no matter where I am. How about you?

Sunday February 14th! Happy Valentine's Day!
For a chance to win this prize package put your answer to the question below in the comments. On Tuesday February 16th, I'll pick a random winner.
What is your favorite thing about Valentine's Day?
When I was a child I loved to give out Valentine cards. I did this until high school when it was no longer cool. LOL
I still love to give cards to my favorite people.
I love the cover of this upcoming release!! The art department did a fabulous job.
Sent to find a wedding party that disappeared during a hike, Alaskan state trooper Hunter McCord and his K-9 partner, Juneau, discover bridesmaid Ariel Potter hanging from a cliff. But this was no accident--she was pushed--and her hiking companions are missing. Now its up to Hunter and Juneau to find them... and make sure whoever wants Ariel dead doesn't finish the job.
I'm so excited about this upcoming release. This is the first book in a new continuity series from Love Inspired Suspense. There will be eight books and two novellas for you to enjoy.
I've been remiss in not posting since the new year began. Life has been a rollercoaster ride. But even amidst the chaos, I choose to be grateful. I turned in a book last week, I have a book coming out in April, my family is healthy and God is good.
