Joe DeRozier
Joe DeRozier sits at a big table in his bakery. The sheeter's
over there. There are racks with trays of donuts. A police officer stops in.
His kids come by. Someone up front wants a particular pastry--does he have it?
His mother-in-law visits there. She's beautiful. Joe thinks a lot and writes it
down. Those thoughts draw portraits of his mother-in-law, the police officer,
and the town he loves. He says he just makes donuts, but he does more. Much
more. Welcome to DeRozier's. Enjoy the visit.
Joe's offering both of his books for $30 with $5 shipping.
Book One, Heck, I Don’t Know…I Just Make Donuts, alone would be $20,
Book Two, My Dog Pees When Company Arrives…I’m Glad I Don’t, alone is $10.
You can order off this form. He can mail it or you can pick up
at the bakery. He has both books there and you can often con him out of a donut
and some really good conversation. https://www.deroziers.com/book-order-form

For readers who love a good story
Book one -
Vex and Valor
Imagine two families from different sides of
the track living in the small railroading community of Brookston, Pennsylvania
in 1969.
Tim and Vee Crawford have a picture-perfect
life. They are parents to four children and are lifelong residents of a
reputable housing development and owners of a successful and popular bakery, Vee's Sweet Treats.
Georgia and Zeke Hayes struggle to make ends meet.
They move with four of their seven children from Tennessee after Zeke is
hired on the railroad. The family lands in a cul-de-sac for the railroad
personnel searching for a better life.
Then a marriage of their two youngest children
– Ella Crawford and Ben Hayes despite objection from both families.
They can barely support themselves driving Ben
to alcohol. Their children witness fighting between them.
When Ella is found unconscious and the
couples' two children are missing, the two families are forced to pull together
to find answers. Will the truth ever come out?
Book two -
Verdicts and Vows
It's 1994 with the two families more entangled
than ever.
An attack on Vee's Sweet Treats, the Crawford family bakery. Thugs
in masks torment those inside - including members of the Crawford and Hayes
families.
A steamy unexpected affair sparks friction.
Forced together again at the wedding of a
Crawford granddaughter to a Hayes grandson. When the two bloodlines were
introduced, in much the same way in Book One, the union ended in tragedy. Will
tragedy strike again?
More discovery comes to light about the unsolved
mystery of Ella.
The families twist and turn like a Juniper
tree. Readers will become more connected to each character as Book Three
begins. The climatic Verve and Virtue will be available soon.
Specially priced at $20 for both books and a Christmas
ornament, plus $10 if you wish to have them shipped. You can also buy a single
book for $10 and $5 shipping. Order and arrange for shipping or pickup from debra.myers922@yahoo.com or message

Nan Reinhardt
The Four Irish Brothers Winery is a romantic series from USA
Today bestselling author Nan Reinhardt and Tule Publishing. The
Flaherty brothers, Sean, Brendan, Conor, and Aidan have inherited their
family’s historic winery in River’s Edge, a small town on the banks of the Ohio
River that Nan modeled after Madison, Indiana, one of her favorite places. In
the two touching and romantic holiday stories from the series, single dad and
winemaker, Conor is waking from the grief of losing his wife, and rising star
Aidan is an actor on a hit TV series, but has grown tired of the LA glitz and
yearns to return to the stage. Maybe an old showboat can make that dream a
reality. If you love sweet small town Christmas romances, you will fall in love
with Books 1 and 3 of the Four Irish Brothers Winery series.
