My holiday romantic suspense is on Kindle Unlimited KU
"Former Army medic, Trinity Jones, returns to Maple Valley, Ohio, to run her family's Christmas tree farm, only to find her ex-boyfriend, Sheriff James Wilson, investigating a series of arsons threatening local businesses – including hers."
Love, Lies, and Local News.
When a foreign correspondent, Elizabeth Nelson, returns to her hometown, she finds herself caught between a rising politician's charm and her ex-lover's dangerous truth.
Thank you for the shout-out!!
Thank you!
Thank you, David!
Okay but I hope that PRH follows up on this by not selling its catalogue to AI dealers and by not trying to replace its editors with AI.
The printing on the page is free but it is also legally meaningless.
Love, Lies, and Local News is available for pre-order!
