Brand SPANKING New!

 

Brand SPANKING New!

Two new releases are full of characters that really need a spanking! 

Dive into Dirty Lies and Dirty Windows by me, Dawn Kunda, and discover the Dirty Love nest built in each story.

In Dirty Lies Brooke wants normal. Brooke wants love. Nestled in the Kettle Moraine Forest, her attempt to start a new life is shot to pieces as her ex-husband lurks around every corner of change. 

Sinking herself into her art of stained glass, Scott Marshall, a local landscaper, finds her work and her caring nature attractive.  Scott offers her more than a work agreement. To contract her heart is his ultimate goal. 

Her plans are shattered when someone wants her dead.  

Falsified evidence and twisted statements infiltrate the courtroom as the case of attempted murder multiplies its victims.  Brooke's psychic friend furtively supplies clues to the detectives as they work against a corrupt police force.  

Brooke's conscious filters the evidence as she attempts to clarify her relationship with Scott Marshall and the possible manipulations of her ex-husband.

Both men have motive and opportunity.  But who wants her dead and who wants her love? 

Dirty Windows brings Brook and her psychic friend in touch with another horrific criminality.

  Intricately plotted and edgy, Dirty Windows reveals a blizzard of lies, murders, and deceit.

Eva arrives in Ashland, Wisconsin with a broken heart and a full-proof plan to swear off men. They’re not on her agenda.

Nick’s move to Wisconsin changes his profession.  Away from death and pain.  No responsibility for the life of a woman here.

That’s until Nick finds Eva and her car buried in the snow.  Something about her won’t let him stay away.     

 A message from his former boss feels like a kick in the gut.

Nick needs to keep Eva at a distance as he’s assigned by the US Marshals to apprehend fugitives.  Eva doesn’t understand his dismissal and puts herself in danger by befriending the hunted.

Falling snow, baby kidnapping, dead bodies, hidden identities, and flying bullets create a slippery landscape, yet Nick hopes his skilled hands won’t let him down.

The Great Shoe Hunt of 2018

         Hello, gentle readers!

I am on the hunt for a new pair of shoes for the day job (and for an upcoming conference). I know that doesn’t sound difficult, but it’s proving to be so. Why? Well…there are certain criteria these shoes have to meet.

From the time I was one year old until I was fifteen, I had to wear corrective shoes. They were ugly as sin, not to mention uncomfortable. No saddles shoes or Keds or Penny Loafers for me, although I desperately wanted to be able to wear those. I swore, when I was old enough and didn’t have to wear those ugly corrective shoes anymore, I would only wear what appealed to me. And what’s that, you might ask?

Dainty, strappy little sandals.

Preferrably black (because, you know, black shoes go with just about anything!). It’s okay if they have a little bling on them, as long as they remain dainty and…well…pretty. I used to be able to strut around in three to five inch heels….those days are long gone so now, I prefer a kitten heel….one inch, maybe two.

I’d like it if they were on sale (because spending a whole lot of money on shoes that aren’t going to last me that long somehow just sticks in my craw…I’m hard on my shoes…I walk very fast and very heavy, at least that’s what the DH says).

Above all, they must be comfortable. I spent upwards of ten hours a day in them, so they can’t hurt my feet (and believe me, the older I get, the more impossible this is becoming).

Not so hard to find, right?     

So, being the optimist I am (my glass is always half full), I took myself shopping this past weekend. If I tell you that I came home with three books and no shoes, would that tell you how I did (and that was after hitting seven different stores)?

Have you seen what’s out there in regard to footwear? Ugh! What apprentice to torture designed these things?

Yes, I found dainty and strappy like I wanted, but none in black….every other color of the rainbow (including a pair that were clear, which were rather cool looking, especially when I tried them on, but alas, they were not comfortable at all and had three toes on my right foot numb within minutes) and none of those came with a heel lower than three inches. I did find shoes with shorter heels, however, they were bulky and thick and so the opposite of dainty, I just…couldn’t.

Remember Fred Flintstone? Yeah, wearing those lower heeled shoes made me look like I had Fred Flintstone feet (for the record, I normally take a six or six and half).

Still, I am determined! There is a pair of perfect shoes out there for me so it’s another trip to the shoe store.

        Wish me luck!

Until next time, remember to spread kindness wherever you go.

A beastly good read

It's getting closer to when goblins and ghosts make their appearance. So how about reading a classic tale with a twist?

Check out M.J. Haag's Beastly Tales.

Depravity

Beastly Tales, Part 1

**ADULT ROMANCE**
A classic fairy tale with a new twist, the Beauty and the Beast saga begins with Depravity…

Sixteen year old Benella is concerned with two things–avoiding the two village boys who torment her and scrounging for food to help feed her family. Unfortunately, the best wild fruit and vegetables are near the walls of the estate, a dark misty place inhabited by an unforgiving beast.

When her tormentors lock her behind the massive gates, Benella knows her fate is sealed. Yet, the fate isn’t one she expects. Her encounter with the beast starts a bizarre cycle of bargaining for her freedom, a freedom the beast seems determined to see her lose.

Intended for mature readers due to sexual situations, violence (attempted rape), and moderate language.

WEDDING AT POKER FLAT (Poker Flat #5) is available for Preorder

Wedding at Poker Flat (Poker Flat #5) is available for preorder!

Wade Johnson wants to make their wedding perfect for his bride-to-be. The problem is, “perfect” doesn’t exist at Poker Flat.

Kendra Lowe, former professional poker player and current sole owner of Poker Flat Nudist Resort, is more than ready to marry her almost perfect cowboy, but when her mother arrives a week early, she’s unprepared for the emotions and baggage that come with her—from her mom’s blunt ways, to old memories, to her parents' coming divorce.

Wade has finally convinced his fiancé to tie the knot. Unfortunately, there are more knots that need to be untied first. Luckily, the misfit band of employees at Poker Flat are determined to help him get her to the altar…one way or another.

Gun-shy after her first beautiful wedding ended in a demoralizing marriage and harsh divorce, Kendra’s hoping this one will be anything but perfect. As hard as it is for her to accept, some things are simply out of her control. It’s very clear that this wedding will depend more on her family, friends, and if love truly can conquer all. If it can, it’s even stronger than she is.
