I'm thrilled with this new book and hope readers like it as much as I enjoyed writing it. An Irish lass, fresh off the boat from Ireland, in far west Texas married to a retired military doctor determined to not love again.
Here's a short excerpt:
"Tad,
would you like to give the blessing this morning?"
"Do
I hav-ta?
"Yes,
son, you do."
He
folded his hands on the table and squeezed his eyes tight. "Thanks for Rosa's good cooking, Lord, and
for my Pa and Aunt Ruth and...Aileen." He forced one eyelid up,
stabbed Aileen with his stare, and expelled a deep sigh. "I don't want no step-mother...but since I gots one, I'll try to
be nice. Please watch over my Ma and baby sister up there in heaven. And if you
gots time, please send me a dog. Amen."
"Amen."
Sam's rumbling voice drowned out the two women's. "That was very nice,
Tad." His voice was steady, but he held in his laughter. "You're
wanting a dog, huh?"
Tad
wiped the milk mustache from his face with the sleeve of his shirt. "Yes,
sir, Pa. I'm big enough to take care of one."
"Hmm,
I'll give it some thought, " he said. "Aileen, your china looks right
at home there on the sideboard."
"Ach,
yes. I'm so pleased with it, I could bust."
A Touch of Texas Irish will be available on March 8, 2017. It is available for pre-order now. I hope you'll pick up a copy and leave me a short review when you finish. Your opinion means a great deal.
