Whew! Well today is the release of the third and final book in my Shades of Hope series.Bayou Blue hit the ether and the shelves and I am so excited!
Here is the blurb:
Caught between revenge
and redemption...
Sheriff Jake Ayers wants
his parish to heal from the tragic bombing that left his town in mourning, but
with Riley Drake back in town, that’s not going to happen. Jake cares for the
beautiful, determined reporter, but Riley is causing no end of trouble. Most of
the people want her dead. Emotions run deep in the bayou, and Jake’s are no
exception. Keeping a level head and an indifferent heart is going to be as
difficult as keeping Riley alive.
With her family shamed,
and her faith shaken, Riley carries a heavy burden. She returns to Bayou La
Foudre Parish to clear her brother’s name, but her mission is difficult. The
people of the town are convinced of his guilt, and her only ally is Jake Ayers.
Both frustrated and fascinated by the parish’s brooding sheriff, Riley hopes
she's found someone to trust with her burden…and her heart.
Gotta say, it was so fun to try out those alligator hush puppies and crawfish gumbo as research. Surprisingly good, people! So my journey through the mysterious waterways of the bayou was so fun.
I have been super busy with the preparations for this release and now that its finally here I think I might need a bubble bath or something.
I'm busy at work on my new series though, so I won't be resting for long. So excited to share this special day with all of you!
Blessings,
Raquel
