BLURB:
Mercy’s Rescue
Fighting for his life after an
ambush, Sheriff Josh Wellman awakes to find himself looking into the eyes of a
real-life angel of mercy. Despite his groggy condition, he knows his life has
changed the instant their hands touch. Devastating heartbreak has left Mercy
Smith's faith in tatters, her heart guarded against more loss. Her dedication
to the air evac trauma team she leads has insulated her from the realities of
the earth below, so now Josh faces the biggest challenge of his life. Can he
find a way around the walls that fortify her heart and convince this angel to
stay on the ground with him? Can Mercy open herself to life again and find a
way to restore her faith in God ... as well as love?
Love Beneath the Blue Texas Sky
J.D. Sterling shook the dirt of the
small Texas town from his boot heels a dozen years before. Now, he’s returned…
not as the poor country boy who left to follow his dream, but as country
music’s sexy superstar. He has everything he always wanted except for the girl
who holds his heart. Mandy.
Years come and go and people change.
Amanda Lawson has grown up. From heartbreak and struggling to survive to
becoming a successful businesswoman, she has taught herself to never look back.
Once before, she had survived the wild, green-eyed cowboy with only a guitar to
his name and a pocketful of dreams. Then he left her behind with nothing but
his hollow vows and a shattered heart.
Mandy was his muse. J.D. was her
dream. But tragedy and broken vows can be insurmountable obstacles. Can they
find their way home to each other again… or is it too late?
His Country Bride
"Sheriff's Department! Raise
your hands above your head and don't move."
She’s a runaway bride who left her
two-timing fiance at the altar. He’s a county sheriff determined to keep the
peace in his country and leave city girls alone after his own fiance left him
for the bright lights of the city. Neither of them planned on running straight
into each other...over a burning wedding dress.
Ellie and Lucas planned on never
trusting their hearts to love again. When danger follows her from the city, the
sheriff must do his duty to protect her. However, it isn’t long before he
discovers the real danger may be to his heart. Ellie just might teach him that
even a city girl can be a country girl at heart.

EXCERPT
Mercy’s
Rescue
She
ventured a quick look but didn’t see a wedding ring. That meant nothing—many
men didn’t wear rings. Her David would not have worn one either. He’d often
said a ring would only get lost when he removed it to do surgery. The dark
cloud of remembrance jolted her back to reality. Her job was done; she passed
her patient over to the trauma team. There was no need for her to stay. With a
last look at the man currently the focus of everyone’s attention, Mercy stepped
outside the room. Her steps faltered as she realized that she’d automatically
send a brief request on his behalf to whatever power the man might believe in;
a request that the trauma specialists behind her would be able to use their
combined expertise to keep him in this world for those who loved and needed
him.
“Three
minutes out. Descent begins in one.” The pilot’s voice crackled through the
headset as he tossed a look over his shoulder to Mercy, strapped into the jump
sear. She responded with a quick thumbs-up. “They’ve secured the scene,” he
added. “We’re in and out fast. There’s only one to transport.” A dull, leaden
weight sank to the pit of her stomach. Mercy Smith knew his words meant the
other injured person had died before their arrival. “We can’t save them all,
Mercy.” Paul Robards, the second medic onboard and seated across from her,
responded to the shadowed look that crossed her face. “Some things are out of
our control.”

AUTHOR Bio and Links:
Born and raised in the Lone
Star state of Texas, Debra grew up among horses, cowboys, wide open spaces, and
real Texas Rangers. Pride in her state
and ancestry knows no bounds and it is these heroes and heroines she loves to
write about the most. She also draws
upon a variety of life experiences including working with abused children,
caring for baby animals at a major zoo, and planning high-end weddings (ah,
romance!).
When she isn’t busy writing
about tall Texans and feisty heroines, she can be found cheering on her Texas
Tech Red Raiders, or heading off on another cruise adventure. She read her first romance...Janet Dailey's
Fiesta San Antonio, over thirty years ago and became hooked on the genre. Writing
contemporary romances, is both her passion and dream come true, and she hopes
her books will bring smiles...and sighs...to all who believe in
happily-ever-after’s.
