Briar, a young mother, and a military widow, struggles to cope with the loss of her husband. No man can ever measure up to him, the hero who had given his life for his country. Briar bravely puts on a smile and a princess dress to entertain children for work so she can support her son, alone. The party is filled with rich snobs that give her a hard time, but she meets her prince charming.
Andrew Stern is an eccentric billionaire who does not take a no for an answer. Tired of dating among snobs and women only interested in him for his money, he will use any means possible to get to Briar. Will this be just another gig for Briar, or will it be her happily ever after.

About the author-

I am usually the one behind the camera, so you won’t find too many images of me. It’s always the shy ones you have to watch out for. Many of my readers know of my battles with autoimmune disease and when I look at images of myself, I see the telltale lupus rash and am reminded that I’m actually sick. Yeah, I could probably go for one of the glamour shots where they do something with my unruly hair and put some makeup on me, but I’m too much of a tomboy. I’d rather be out somewhere on an adventure than spend my time trying to look a certain way. Not a girly girl, sorry.

I take pictures of other people, butterflies, and anything that delights me like my two crazy Chinese Crested perpetual puppies. Like me, they will be eternally little and goofy, and I just love them to bits, the bacon kind. They run through a bag so fast I can’t blink, but I’ve taught them some tricks, so they get rewarded for their efforts. It helps keep them focused and since they aren’t huge eaters (same flavor kibble everyday) they aren’t chubby and get a thumbs up from the vet at every visit.

Even unruly Mooshu tries his best doing tricks which says a lot. He’s dealing with an incurable bleeding disorder which makes me travel with Chinese medicine just in case I need to plink a pill down his throat in a hurry, and having been born a swimmer puppy, his joints are kind of a hot mess. I guess he found the right home with us, because we’re all kind of a hot mess here but an abundance of love to share.

Delight is where you find it and for me that’s my family (Including the crazy Cresteds) and silly things like playing the DDR, having some sunset beach time or one day adventures. My hands are always busy with a project, everything from sewing to metal work, so lots of the goodies I give out at author events are something I made personally. I just love personal touches 😉

Since the hubby was diagnosed with diabetes and steroids have upped my blood sugars, I’ve taken a break from baking and switched to meal prepping which still includes the oven but it’s savory instead of sweet. I’m not strictly Keto, since the amount of veggies I eat puts me over carbs for keto and under the fat requirements (macros) but I’m trying to get those micronutrients in, so… OCD is my superpower and both hubby and I are now in the 5.6 A1c range, prediabetes as opposed the A1c 10.0 he was and the 8.0 I was which is a huge victory. He’s lost about 60-70 pounds and goes to the gym five days a week or more. I’ve lost about 50 with diet while still eating my dark chocolate and playing DDR on the wii. I avoid the gym and get my steps in with the dogs. Two different approaches that work, so if you’re in the same situation and can’t do the gym because of germs, there are plenty of ways to get your exercise. Even if you just walk during your lunch break and start eating less processed food, it’s something. I still go out to eat with the imps and can find something on the menu just about anywhere I go. If not, I ask for something special. I don’t do dairy, artificial sweetner, or soy, but most sit-down places have grilled chicken or fish and some kind of vegetables. Though the imps like fast food, I don’t miss it.

Now, onto the cocktail!

Pink Pony Cocktail

What you’ll need:

A large glass with ice

Blender if you want to make it a frozen drink, shaker if you want it shaken with ice-both are fabulous

Measuring cup

3 oz. Pink grapefruit Juice

1 1/2 oz vodka (Omit if you’re not imbibing)

1/2 oz Cointreau (you know it’s one of my favorites, but you can switch it out for the same amount of orange juice if you’re not imbibing)

Fruit to garnish

Optional: splash of cranberry juice for an extra pink color or grapefruit flavored seltzer for a little bubbles

What to do:

1. Mix your grapefruit juice, vodka, and Cointreau. if you want the alcohol-free version, replace the vodka with seltzer for a little kick and the Cointreau with orange juice and you have a brilliant mocktail.
2. If you want a frozen drink, add liquids and ice to a blender and blend until smoothie like consistency, otherwise add to shaker with ice and shake vigorously until mixed.
3. Serve in a tall or hurricane glass and garnish with fresh fruit.

NOTE: As with any adult beverages, drink responsibly and don’t operate a vehicle or heavy machinery. The life you save may be your own.

Hope you enjoy and don’t forget that free download on Amazon!
