Happy New Year!

AJ Renee Sweet and Sinfully Ever After St. Fleur

Hi everyone! Happy New Year!

I hope you all had a wonderful holiday season! We were able to share the first Christmas in about six years with our loved ones in Florida. The hard part of military life is not always going home when you want to. The trip took us longer than we had planned thanks to the alternator dying (even though it was just replaced this last September.) Luckily, we were able to make it to our families safely albeit very slowly.

New Years Eve, my husband and I were super excited to watch our NFL teams play. I’m a Saints fan and he’s a Buccaneers fan. We lost, but it was a fun game and the crowd was pretty great.

We got home with little problems if you didn’t include a frozen kitchen pipe(that finally thawed within twenty-four hours of being reported) and now our area is under a boil order. This cold weather is no joke! We didn’t even deal with water main breaks in Upstate NY and it was colder there.

Anywho…now I’m back to work and trying to catch up. I’m working on finalizing things for the next story in the St. Fleur series, No Going Back, and then back to working on my paranormal romance.

I joined the Books + Main bites website. You can find my profile here. I’m hoping to post some more clips once I get myself settled into a routine. For now there are about eight bites for you to enjoy.

Hope to see you around! Back to work! 😉

Happy New Year!

Winter's Surprise AJ Renee Holiday Romance

Love doesn’t come easy for everyone. Sometimes it never shows, and for others it’s stolen from their lives.

Michelle Harper quit trying to find love after a string of failed dates. Sure, her life hadn’t turned out quite like she expected, but she was done trying to fit a square peg in a round hole. She was perfectly happy filling her life with her love of cooking.

Weeks before Christmas, a chance encounter brings Jake Smith into her life. The spell of the season weaves around her, and she’s quickly caught under some mistletoe with the handsome stranger. When Michelle can’t keep Jake off her mind, she realizes she’s gone too far.

With her heart on the line, she can only wait and see if the magic of the holiday season will bring her the best gift of all… love.

Halloween, October, AJ Renee

October…

Hey guys! I love October… No really I do! It’s the beginning of the season for me. Halloween then Thanksgiving, Christmas, and finally New Years.

My decorations are mostly up. I have a few more decorations to add this year. I wish my house was set up a bit differently so I could have the strobe light going with the bloody hand prints and all. I have kids but trust me, even they know the decorations are Mami’s thing.

Since I love this time of the year so much, my first newsletter will release this month. Stay tuned and if you haven’t already signed-up I suggest you do. I have a treat going to one of my newsletter readers. Click HERE to sign-up.

Last week had some bumps in the road that felt like craters but I am breathing better. Stress has a way of suffocating us all. I hope you have someone to lean on or talk to because I have no idea how I would get through the hard moments without my amazing circle. My hubby is most definitely on the forefront. Seriously, I couldn’t get through it all without him.

So tell me, who loves October? Halloween? What’s your costume this year?

Father's day Love Thanks

Happy Father’s Day!

I’m a day late, I know. I was running around yesterday trying to make my girl’s daddy, and my happily ever after, have a special day.

Here I am now! Happy Father’s Day! To all the men who have done right by their kids, the ones who have stepped in and loved them regardless of the DNA factor and to all the women juggling both roles. I truly hope you had a great day!

I think a lot of men get nagged quite a bit for a variety of reasons. No one is perfect, I’m surely far from being perfect. I got one thing right, my man. Sure he’s not perfect, there are moments he can frustrate me but the man has the fatherhood thing DOWN. I think he’s the better parent. He thinks I’m too hard on myself but truly, he’s great with our three girls. He’s very hands on and pitches in with everything. Thank you to my love for every little and big thing he does.

There are plenty of examples of all the wrong things a man can be or do when it comes to being a father. Look to your baby daddy and recognize him for his hard work. We are quick to criticize and they need to know they haven’t screwed it all up either. None of us are perfect and it takes a village to raise our babies.

If the person sharing your child’s other half of their DNA has refused to step up or even recognize your child… well that’s on THEM. Make sure those kids know there is nothing wrong with them. If their families step up and love that child let them. Not all men who do this awful thing were raised to be that way. It’s shocking and heartbreaking to the families to see. Your kids are loved and they will know their value. Your love will be their strength and if it’s right for your family one day a man will steal your heart and love those babies like he was the one to create them.

CHEERS to all those Daddy’s and Mommy’s doing it right! Love your baby’s, teach them right from wrong and raise them to be strong and compassionate members of society. We need more loving, kind, respectful, intelligent, and overall good human’s in our society.

Keep up the good work!

Memorial Day American soldiers return Coffin Flag Sent home

Memorial Day

As you all prepare your food and roll out your grills take a moment this weekend to remember all those who cannot celebrate with their families. They have sacrificed their lives for the price of freedom. They had not meant to. Who means to fight for their country and not return home to their loved ones?

Their watch has ended.

What didn’t end is the numbing pain their families have to endure with the loss of their loved one. Fathers, mothers, sons, daughters, wives, children, and friends laid to rest in a coffin. The American flag draped over it, tears and heartache on display, throats constricted with emotion.

As I type this I can’t help the tears running down my own cheeks. The possibility of losing my husband or any of our friends and family currently serving is… horrifying.

So enjoy yourselves this weekend. Stay safe. Remember those that have helped keep us safe. If you choose to drink, do it responsibly and make a toast for those who paid the ultimate sacrifice.

Thank you to those past and present for your service. Thank you to the many loved ones who have done their own sacrifices to support their Soldier/Airman/Sailor/Marine.

Mother's day

~*~HAPPY MOTHER’S DAY!~*~

I want to take a moment out and wish all the mom’s out there a Happy Mother’s Day! I also want to give a shout out to the dad’s who have stepped up to the plate.

I hope you have a wonderful day relaxing and reading your favorite book while you get pampered(or left alone to use the bathroom in peace.)

Today I will spend it with my own kids and husband while we prepare to have my lovely mother in law come visit.

Wishing you all the very best, AJ
