How CHARM ME AGAIN began:
For several months a Scottish Highland Ghost has haunted Daylan, in his personal life, his professional life and at his forge. Yet, being a talented warlock, he is no closer to discovering what the ghost wants or why he chose Daylan. A trip to his estranged sister’s home in Colorado may have unforeseen consequences especially when family history leads him to a shocking discovery.

Daylan’s world spirals out of control as he searches for Josie. Can he break the age old curse to save her and their future, or will she be lost to him forever?
A peek between the pages of CHARM ME AGAIN:
She swallowed hard and blinked.
Out of the mist, in full Scottish regalia, a ghost stood, his transparent red and green belted plaid blowing in the breeze.
She shook her head, closed her eyes, scrubbed her hands over her eyes, and blinked them open. “What the hell?” burst from her lips before she could control herself. “It’s some kind of bad dream. Right?” She rubbed her eyes again opening only one this time. “Shit, you’re all still here.” She dropped her arms to her sides and glared at Daylan then Summer. “Someone better tell me what’s going on—right now.” Her hands fisted and unfisted at her sides.
Daylan returned her scathing look. “Later.”
“We meet again Shay.” The ghost said. “What kind of attire are ye wearing?”
“Never mind. Ye are the cause of the problem, Daylan.” The leader glared at the ghost.
“Oh, no—not this time,” the ghost said.
Daylan stood straight. “No way. I’m not taking the blame for this.”
Shay grinned. “Oh, now things are falling in place.” He pointed a finger at Daylan. “You are his namesake and that is why Khellan has returned.” He flicked a finger at the ghost. “And you have attached to your namesake hoping he or his twin can break the curse. What a tangle.” Shifting his gaze to her, he continued. “This young lass is caught in the middle with naught power to protect herself.”
“For god sakes. She’s mortal. How can she be caught in the middle?” Daylan shouted. “She shouldn’t even be able to see what’s happening.”
“Yet she does. Something to think about.” Shay shrugged one shoulder. “She is besotted with you, as you are with her. The lass’s blood may be diluted, but it’s there. The cycle begins again.”

Charm Me Again MFRWhooks
This week. #MFRWhooks is the award winning Charm Me Again, set in Colorado. It doesn’t get much better than that! Breaking the curse is only the first step to forever.
So pull up a chair and get comfy, grab a drink of your choice from the cooler, a Chocolate Chip or Peanut Butter cookie from the plate, and let’s find out a little about Charm Me Again!
A scene in this book takes place at Hanging Lake in Glenwood Canyon, Colorado. A magical place. that inspired Charm Me Again. The scene came from my personal experience of hiking up the Hanging Lake trail in the pouring rain. You’ve never lived until you climb over large rain slickened rocks on an uphill trail gaining 1,000 feet in elevation over the mile climb. But oh my the view of a lake on the side of a mountain is breath-taking!

A little more about Charm Me Again! A Feel good tale where two families long divided brought together through magic, love, understanding & and adventure of a lifetime.
People ran for cover screaming. The hard-frozen ice balls changed to slush pellets then switched to large storybook snowflakes. The howling wind died down and the sun returned to a cloudless sky in a matter of fifteen minutes.
“Wow. I’ve never seen—Wow.” She leaned over and scooped up a mixture of soft snow and hard ice balls just before it all disappeared. “Colorado is known for its changeable weather, but…” she shook her head.
“Crazy weather you have here.” He glanced around bemused.
“No…No…this isn’t normal.” She turned on her heel in a circle. “How…”
He reached for her, catching the arm of her jacket. “Someone pissed off mother nature. Come on let’s get going.” He couldn’t explain it, but there’d been a serious rift in the magic continuum, and it wasn’t good.
“Well on the bright side, the rocks won’t be wet from whatever weather phenomenon caused the storm.. It’ll make hiking down much easier than slipping and sliding on icy snow, hail, sleet, rain—and wind during whatever.”
“Yeah. Guess so.” He was amazed at the nonchalant attitude she demonstrated. But, she didn’t know.

Please have a seat, grab an iced tea or lemonade out of the cooler. Be sure and try a chocolate chip or peanut butter cookie. Lets get started with books set in my city or state.
Wow, after last week’s topic, this one is a slam dunk. LOL I’ll start with my own books that are set in Colorado.
CFor several months a Scottish Highland Ghost has haunted Daylan, in his personal life, his professional life and at his forge. Yet, being a talented warlock, he is no closer to discovering what the ghost wants or why he chose Daylan. A trip to his estranged sister’s home in Colorado may have unforeseen consequences especially when family history leads him to a shocking discovery and an attraction that brings a devastating curse comes to light.
A scene in this book takes place at Hanging Lake in Glenwood Canyon, Colorado. A scene in the book came from my personal experience of hiking up the Hanging Lake trail in the pouring rain. You’ve never lived until you climb over large rain slickened rocks on an uphill trail gaining 1,000 feet in elevation over the mile climb. But oh my the view of a lake on the side of a mountain is breath-taking!
A fun and flirty Candy Hearts Romance set in Divide, Colorado. Summer Dawn Rylie’s an extraordinary elemental witch with a troubled past. Devlin, a former Navy SEAL has secrets of his own. His magic signature is strong, but he’s no warlock.
An Angel’s Unintentional Entanglement –
The story came about one summer when hubby and I were driving over Independence Pass. It’s one of our favorite drives in Colorado. A beautiful drive if you don’t mind the shear drop-offs. Abandoned cabins (dating back to 1880-1890) dot the landscape near the top of Independence Pass at over 12,000 feet in elevation. As I rounded the back of one of those cabins a complete scene unfolded among the spectacular views. I rushed to the truck and jotted down an outline and An Angel’s Unintentional Entanglement was born.
Fallen warrior angel, Caden Silverwind, lives alone in Colorado’s rugged Rockies, healing from physical wounds as well as the mental anguish suffered during battles with dark demons. Bureau of Indian Affairs Agent, Mystic Rayne’s personal dilemma and assignment nearly gets her killed.
Their quest to uncover her attacker takes them from the pristine mountains in Colorado to the wilds of Wyoming. Along the way, they find answers which may place them in more danger
Then we have Coming Home to Crimson by another Colorado Author, Michelle Major who has a whole series set in Crimson, Colorado. Though it’s set in a fictional town it’s still in Colorado.
Can’t complete this list without one from Nora Roberts, Night Smoke is set in Denver, Colorado. Arson investigator Ryan Piasecki was a man who got the job done no matter what the obstacle…or how beautiful she was. Ambitious executive Natalie Fletcher’s new business was going up in smoke, literally, and she needed Ryan’s help to catch the arsonist.
Last but not least, “Murder at the Brown Palace” By Dick Krek
The Brown Palace is an icon in Denver, and this book explores the true story of one of the most notorious murders in Denver history. The murder, which took place in Denver’s most beloved and grand hotel, eventually lead to two of the most fascinating trials in Colorado history. The story centers around Denver socialite Isabel Springer, who had been courting two different gentlemen who were unaware of the other’s intentions.
So there you have it, a few of the many books set in my city or state. I’d love to hear from you. Please share your thoughts on what books are set in your city or state. Please list them in the comments below.
Alas, I must return to my writing cave where deadlines loom with edits on my upcoming release HIDDEN GYPSY MAGIC and on a new WIP sixth book in A Demon’s Witch Series(very exciting and coming along very well) so let’s see what other authors list as books set in their city or state. L&SR
Pssst… While you’re here, don’t forget to check out my paranormal romance/mysteries click here.
Now lets talk for a moment about a fun weekend read spinning around magic, time travel, a family mystery, and gypsies. Mystic Maples. When Mercy discovers the truth, Silvanus’ well-ordered life unravels and they’re catapulted into the past to right a wrong.
Earth/Fire witch Mercy Rose’s insatiable curiosity always gets her in trouble. After a break-in at her Colorado flower shop, and a court battle that comes to a screeching halt in her favor, she arrives at Deerbourne Inn for a much-needed getaway. Looking for peace and quiet, she finds just the opposite in a startling handsome but mysterious man and his dog.
Silvanus Forrest’s gypsy/fae heritage is a double-edged sword. The land he inherited from his parents is rumored to be enchanted. But when Mercy discovers the truth, his well-ordered life unravels, and they’re catapulted into the past to right a wrong. Along the way their lives intertwine, and they discover the true meaning of family and love. Will they change the past in time to save their future?
