Millionaire Daddy, 99c. Even better with clothes on!
The Millionaire Daddy Project… a fairy tale? Let’s see.
Kingdom? Check. Bachelor Dane Bergman’s restaurant business is definitely his kingdom.
Prince? Check, that’s Dane, though he just thinks he’s rich and powerful.
Princess in jeopardy: Dani, Dane’s unexpected, unknown-until-now preschool daughter. A tough nut, this one. Just like her daddy.
White knight: that would be Pamela Atwater, who’s also manager extraordinaire, devoted pinch-hitting nanny, loyal friend and – surprise! – a sweet, sexy seductress as well. She’s the only one who can bring father and daughter together.
Battle scenes? Sure, but they are more face-to-face and emotional than army-to-army with halitosis and maggots. (FYI, my characters all have excellent oral hygiene and since it’s my fantasy, there is no need for bugs, ever. Period.)
Happy ending? You know it. Though you may shed a tear or two as well. Rights are wronged, truth comes out, people discover untapped potential and love conquers all.

The Secrets of Cherry Lake
Last night, I got together with my co-creators to celebrate the launch of this new contemporary Montana romance series. Authors Joan Kilby, Paula Altenburg, Jeannie Watt and I had so much fun with our readers. Talk about a party. Bad dates, first kisses, questionable personal habits, it seems nothing was off limits.
Since our series is about secrets, we did a bit of sharing. Now, if you’ve read my blog before, especially some of my earlier stuff about yoga, nakedness, kids, marriage, etc. you’ll know that I’m a pretty open book. You’ll also know I’m a little… scattered. As evidenced by the thing that slipped my mind entirely last night: I have a whopper of a secret to share.
(Thanks to the invention of time travel, er, virtual reality, you can view our launch party for yourself. You can even, if you act quickly, still enter to win some pretty great prizes.)
- SMALL TOWN SECRETS kicks off the series, with a “yesteryear” snapshot of Cherry Lake founder and patriarch Nathan Jackson – who has a big, big secret to carry. Then our series moves on to Nate’s grandchildren. The sins of the father, it seems, really are visited upon the children.
… a beautiful, nostalgic way to begin a new series…
- In my Cherry Lake novel HER SECRET PROTECTOR, town photographer Carrie Logan has a huge secret: she used to earn a living taking boudoir photos. And even took some pretty saucy shots of herself, too. Not exactly what the school board wants on class photo day, Carrie discovers.
Can you guess my secret? That’s right. I had some sassy pictures taken of myself once, too. They weren’t the nearly-naked “Goddess photos” that Carrie specialized in, but they definitely displayed… attitude. (And no, I’m not sharing!) It was tremendous fun doing something so outside my comfort zone. That’s what Carrie’s clients find out, too. Her family, however, isn’t quite as thrilled.
- In Joan’s book, THE SECRET SON, available now, there’s an even bigger secret. (Hint: who is that sexy new cherry picker?) Watching the effect of this on her characters is simply wonderful. Early reviewers love it and I know you will too.
Awesome read… great beginning to a new series.
- Paula Altenburg’s HER SECRET LOVE features Carrie’s wild cousin Jessica, back in the town she swore she was done with. I just love Jess…
- Jeannie Watt’s THE SECRET BRIDE is also chock full of goodness. Horses, kids, a drool-worthy Jackson cowboy. Yummy!
I adore all these stories. Can you tell? Come visit Cherry Lake with us. Share some secrets. We promise, we won’t tell.
The Secrets of Cherry Lake
Next week, Tule Publishing launches a new series, called The Secrets of Cherry Lake. I’m delighted to be part of it, along with authors Joan Kilby, Paula Altenburg and Jeannie Watt. We’ve had a great time creating this little world and we hope readers will love it, too.
