BOOK 1.0 – LOONS OF A FEATHER

A Delta Jane novel.

Shannon Burnett has a serious dilemma—she’s attracted to two men, who both seem to be a bit flawed. Given that she’s just ended her engagement to a four-time bigamist, her “chooser” seems to be badly broken. Should she choose Michael Tanner, who seems to be just another undependable cowboy? Or Jackson Miller, her over-bearing ex-boyfriend, who seems anxious to pick up where they left off twelve years before?

Maybe she should just forget both men and lock herself in a dark closet…or perhaps find a nice, clean room in the nearest convent.

There are two kinds of love matches in life—the kind humans make on their own, which succeed or fail depending on how much work they put into the relationship, and the “made in Heaven” kind that are especially blessed to last a lifetime and are facilitated by a highly trained fairy godmother. This is where Delta Jane comes in. As an FGM extraordinaire, Delta is as skilled as they come, but she has her hands full when she inherits a mess her brother made in his attempt to “fill in” while she was tied up on another assignment. Delta has never failed to make her love match, and she’s not about to start now—regardless of how badly Bubba Ray screwed things up.

But the clock is ticking, and the stakes are high. Shannon must grow beyond her past hurts to see these men for who they really are and make the right choice before the spirit of the child she is destined to have one day fades out of existence.

It’s going to take a freaking miracle to straighten out the mess Shannon’s making of her life—either that, or a fairy godmother. Unfortunately, Shannon’s fairy godmother has tattoos, rides a Harley, and seems a bit cranky. That doesn’t exactly give Shannon warm fuzzies.

Can Delta Jane fix the problem and help Shannon find her happily-ever-after? Or will this strange, grouchy FGM just add to her litany of problems?

BOOK 2.0 – ONE DOG TOO MANY

A Delta Jane novel.

Delta Jane doesn’t just wear cowboy boots, ride a Harley, and have hard-hitting tatts… She’s all cowgirl—one who just happens to be a fairy godmother.

But this quirky cowgirl ain’t your mama’s fairy godmother.

Normally, nothing ruffles Delta’s feathers. She’s been around a hell of a long time and she’s damn good at her job—making sure her assigned love matches don’t fall off the edge of a cliff. This isn’t so easy with the hard-headed Tanner clan, and Delta’s been tasked with reuniting Doris Tanner and Justin Blake—the man who abandoned a pregnant Doris thirty years ago.

Doris is stunned to find Justin standing in her front yard, for the first time in many years. Should she grab a broom or a rake and knock him upside the head? Doris would rather cut the man’s heart out with a popsicle stick than have him on her ranch.

Justin is floored by the sight of Doris, looking even more beautiful than she had all those years ago. But the fire in her eyes says she’s madder than a wet hen under a bucket. Why should she be angry when she was the one who dumped him for another man?

To complicate matters, Delta must make this match in record time, or the whole thing will blow sky-high. What’s the rush? HQ has sent her two love matches to make in the time it normally takes to make one. She will have to depend on her brother, Bubba Ray, to help, but his talent for screwing things up and his sudden fascination with a stupid toy gun has Delta’s stress level ratcheted up to DEFCON 1 levels.

Two dogs, two hard-headed ranchers with unresolved issues, a fairy godmother on the edge, an inept fairy godfather with a pink toy gun, and two love matches to make in half the required time. What the hell can go wrong with that?

Everything!
