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.

Don't forget to enter the contest and feel free to share this post with your friends.

Thanks for stopping by and happy ready and writing!

Contest for a Edge of the Cedars T-shirt

My husband and I returned from vacation last week. He won a T-shirt when we took a boat cruise  with a light show. So, I decided I needed to buy one for me. Our last stop before heading home was Edge of the Cedars State Park.

If you like all things Native American you will love their museum. I wish we'd had longer so I could have learned more. So, if you get a chance to go, plan to have at least four hours to see everything.

The T-shirt I bought is marked an XL, but it fits more like a L. I tried it on but it was snugger than I prefer. Since I can't wear it, I thought it would be good to give it away to one lucky reader. It has never been worn, brand new. Along with the T-shirt I'll give away a copy of one of my Ebooks. You choice.

I'll also give the second person's name pulled from the hat their choice of one of my Ebooks.

Here's how the contest works. Go to my Amazon.com: Kindle Store: Linda LaRoque and read through the blurbs of my books until you find the one that includes a lot of Native American Lore.

Email me at Linda@LindaLaRoque.com with T-shirt contest in the subject line and your answer (Title of the Book) in the content of the email.

On October 1st, my husband will draw 2 winners from a hat. The first winner will receive the T-shirt and one of my Ebooks of their choice. The second name from the hat will win one of my Ebooks of their choice.

I hope you're interested and that I have lots of entries.
