My author copies arrived!

I was thrilled to find my author copies on my porch Monday. I ripped open the box and held my fourth book in my hands for the first time. And that means I'm able to mail out autographed copies to winners of the book.

.

Love Inspired Historicals have gone to a matte finish cover and a narrower stripe across the top. Let me know how you like the new look.
.
Wanted: A Family releases March 8 so be on the lookout for it in the Walmart, K-Mart or bookstore near you! It's also available online at eharlequin.com and Amazon.com on March 8.

Shelter of Hope

The ramshackle Victorian house is all that widowed mother-to-be Callie Mitchell has left. But she’s going to make that house into a true home—a home where she and her baby will be safe and happy…and where women in need can find refuge. And if that means trusting stranger Jacob Smith to help with the repairs, then so be it.

Jacob came to town with a handful of old postcards and one goal in mind—to find the mother who’d abandoned him years before. He never planned to stay…and he certainly never planned to care for Callie. Yet as they rebuild the house together, Jacob and Callie also build the family they’ve always wanted.

I have a title!

I'm very excited to have a title for my upcoming Steeple Hill Love Inspired Historical!!

Wanted: A Family

Pregnant widow Callie Mitchell and falsely accused ex-con Jacob “Jake” Smith, a bitter orphan searching for his birth mother, stand against the disapproving town when Callie turns her house into a home for unwed mothers.

The story will release March 15, 2011. I'll keep you posted as soon as I have a cover.

Blessings, Janet
