Bio for Regina Scott:
Regina Scott started writing novels in the third grade. Thankfully for literature as we know it, she didn’t actually sell her first novel until she had learned a bit more about writing. Since her first book was published in 1998, her stories have traveled the globe, with translations in many languages including Dutch, German, Italian, and Portuguese. She and her husband of over 20 years reside in southeast Washington State.
Blurb to The Irresistible Earl:
If Chase Dearborn, the powerful Earl of Allyndale, found Meredee Price’s family in Scarborough, surely he’d continue his quest to challenge Meredee’s stepbrother to a duel. Meredee is determined to avoid the earl at all costs. But saving a drowning young lady thwarts Meredee’s plans when her act of heroism nets her the attention of the lady’s brother and guardian — none other than Chase himself.
Meredee’s gentle ways and tranquil beauty touch Chase’s guarded heart from the moment he meets her. He’s waited a lifetime for a worthy companion — someone he can trust with his deepest secrets. But then he discovers that Meredee has harbored a secret of her own — one that love may not overcome.
Bio for Cynthia Hickey:
Cynthia Hickey has been making up stories since she was a child. How fortunate that she finally found an outlet for her, uh, fictional tellings. She lives in Arizona with her husband and two of their seven children plus a dog, two cats, two birds, and a snake named Flash.
Blurb for Fudge-Laced Felonies:
While transplanting the rosebush her church’s handsome greeter, Ethan Banning, inadvertently killed, Summer and Ethan discover a hidden stash of diamonds, a rusty can full of cash, and a bloody gardening glove. This discovery sets Summer and her candy-making aunt on a search for a killer.
As Summer gets closer to the truth—not only of the theft but of her true feelings for Ethan—the diamond thief hatches a plan to hush the feisty sleuth.
Ethan’s love for Summer stays buried beneath his teasing, especially when she appears to be attracted to someone else. Summer’s quirky and daring resolve to crack the case has him acting heavy-handedly in order to protect her—but will it push her away for good?
Bio for Marybeth Whalen:
Marybeth Whalen is the wife of Curt and mom of six children. The family lives outside Charlotte, NC. Marybeth is a member of the Proverbs 31 Ministries writing team and a regular contributor to their daily devotions. Her first novel,*The Mailbox* was released in June 2010.
