Monday Mentions: February 13, 2017
Valentine’s week brings two different love filled reads to Monday Mentions.
On Valentine’s Day you can look forward to Ari McKay’s second edition release of Letters from Cupid over at Dreamspinner Press. This flirtatious little read finds Derek being wooed by “Cupid” via love letters. But will Cupid have to reveal himself sooner than expected in order to spear his Valentine?
On February 15th Andrew Grey releases Poppy’s Secret. This story brings the promise of a happy ending as part of Dreamspinner Press’ Dreamspun Desires line. Separated during the birth of their daughter, due to cold feet on Edge’s part, nine years later Edge is back and determined to turn things around with Pat. Yet secrets might destroy them both.
We at the Banter would love to know if you have purchased any of our Monday Mentions and, if so, how well you liked them. Please feel free to comment below.
Make it a great week!
About Letters from Cupid
After breaking up with his partner, English professor Dr. Derek Chandler feels like a failure who will never win at romance. His aloof colleague, Dr. Macon Pinney, disagrees and pens an anonymous note of encouragement to Derek, which he signs “Cupid.” Thus begins an exchange of correspondence, a courtship through words where the two men find out they have a great deal in common. Meanwhile, Derek reaches out to Macon, not knowing Macon is his anonymous pen pal. Derek reveals through his letters that someone close by has piqued his interest. Could he mean Macon—or has Macon missed his opportunity and lost Derek to another man?
Perhaps the time has come for Cupid to put in an appearance, and when better to do so than Valentine’s Day?
First Edition published by Torquere Press, 2015.
About Poppy’s Secret
A second chance born of love.
Pat Corrigan and Edgerton “Edge” Winters were ready to start a family—or so Pat thought. At the last minute, Edge got cold feet and fled. Pat didn’t bother telling him the conception had already gone through and little Emma was on her way. He didn’t want a relationship based on obligation. He’d rather raise his daughter on his own.
Nine years later, Emma and her Poppy are doing fine. Edge isn’t. He realizes what he threw away by leaving, and he’s back to turn his life around and reclaim his family. It’ll take a lot to prove to Pat that he’s a new man, and even if Edge succeeds, the secret Pat has hidden for years might shatter their dreams all over again.
