Would You Only Help Someone if They Promised to Help You, Too?

If you’re anxious to travel, perhaps trekking all over Alaska in a bush plane is exactly what you need. Go searching for a missing sister, and find a friend’s killer, all while seeing the majestic Alaskan countryside. I don’t know about you, but I’m ready to head out right now!  WOOT! You’ll find all this and more in Shadows at Dusk.

Shadows at Dusk GoddardShadows at Dusk by Elizabeth Goddard

Montana Detective Trevor West is desperate to learn what happened to his sister, who went missing in Alaska over a year ago, leaving nothing but a few photographs as clues to her whereabouts. At the advice of Police Chief Autumn Long, Trevor enlists the help of an experienced bush pilot. If Carrie James can’t help him find the places in the photographs, no one can.

But Carrie has her own agenda. Grieving the death of her closest friend and the only person she could trust, Carrie will help Trevor find his sister on one condition–that he help her track down her friend’s killer.

As the two close in on the answers they crave, they’ll face dangers and connections they could not have imagined. They’ll have to learn to trust one another–and face the dark secrets of the past–if they are ever to discover the truth and bring a killer to justice.

Learn more about Elizabeth Goddard on her WEBSITE or at Missing in Alaska Series.

Episode 597: A Chat with Alison Treat
byChautona Havig

Nothing says Christmas novel like a second-chance romance unless maybe a historical Christmas romance WITH children. EEEP! Listen in as Alison Treat and I chat about her new release, When Sleigh Bells Ring.

note: links may be affiliate links that provide me with a small commission at no extra expense to you.

I loved chatting about Alison’s new book. I knew the minute we started talking that this was my kind of book. And yes, I will be reading it on my flight on Tuesday. EEEP!!!

Annie and Willie’s Prayer.

When Sleigh Bells Ring by Alison Treat

With the glitter of the Gilded Age and the timeless appeal of a second-chance, homespun romance, When Sleigh Bells Ring delights from the opening page. Tender, heartfelt, and beautifully nostalgic, it’s a reminder of what truly matters at Christmas and always. A delightful holiday escape. —Laura Frantz, Bestselling Author

It’s November of 1879, and New York socialite Maggie Lawrence has lost her beau to a wealthy heiress. When her parents leave to spend the entire Christmas season on a European tour, she takes refuge at Brook Haven, her aunt and uncle’s farm, where she summered as a child. She soon discovers that her old flame, Walter Jenkins, has lost his wife in childbirth. Walter’s eighteen-month-old twins find their way into Maggie’s heart. Perhaps there’s room for Walter there as well, if Maggie can rebuild her shattered dignity and accept the winding road that has brought them together again. Walter is finally rebuilding his life after becoming a widower. He’s taken over his father’s mercantile, and the twins are happy with their aunt caring for them while he works. At least, that’s what he tells himself. Nosy neighbors think he needs another wife, but there’s nobody in town he’d even think about marrying…until Maggie comes back to Brook Haven for Christmas. Still, he lost her once before. Should he risk his heart again?

Find out what happens in this second-chance historical romance.

Learn more on Alison’s WEBSITE and follow on GoodReads and BookBub.
