I love the start of a new year, and all the possibilities that lie ahead. Against my better judgment I made a few resolutions this year. So far, so good. Except for the one about exercising more. But let’s not talk about that. Not when there are more exciting things to discuss, including the debut of a new series. And…today’s release of Absolutely, Positively, the third book in the popular Lucy Valentine series.  

“Exposed” by a Boston Herald reporter, Lucy is suddenly the talk of the town. Long back-story short: Even though the rest of her Valentine ancestors were blessed by Cupid with psychic abilities, Lucy’s only special power lies in her ability to find things. This skill has proven quite a blessing for those who come to her matchmaking agency in search of finding their long-lost loves. Now that Lucy’s secret is out, she has more new clients than she knows what to do with. But soon a certain man of mystery steals Lucy’s spotlight…  

No, it’s not Sean Donahue, the sexy fireman-turned-private-eye who’s stolen Lucy’s heart. It’s a masked man in a cowboy hat, dubbed “The Lone Ranger,” who’s been throwing handfuls of cash across the Common. Now all of Beantown’s abuzz. Can Lucy unmask the mysterious money man, track down all her clients’ old flames, and turn up the heat on her love life? Absolutely, positively…  

Early reviews are in:  

“Webber’s characters, each unique and likable, even the ones in jail, are tied together and sorted out by the persistence of Lucy, who believes in luck, love, and logic. The entire book is a delightful read from page one to that last page that readers hope won’t come. Sadly, it does, but gives incentive to those who have not yet read Webber’s other books, Truly, Madly, and Deeply, Desperately.  The author seems to have as much fun writing these books as her enthralled readers will have reading them.” -www.readertoreader.com

  “Another excellent installment of the Lucy Valentine series, ABSOLUTELY, POSITIVELY definitely doesn't disappoint! A perfect mix of mystery with a pinch of paranormal, this heartwarming book offers a little something for everyone. Lucy Valentine is an extremely genuine character, unable to let a case go even when it looks as though she's hit a dead end. Each brilliant character adds a little something extra to the story, and readers will fall in love with the Valentine crew. A truly charming story and exciting mystery.” -www.romancereviewstoday.com

E-News:

I’ve dipped my toes in the e-reading world.

*A Hoe Lot of Trouble

Nina Quinn (I miss Nina!) is back in e-print! It’s now available on Kindle and Nook.

Taken by Surprise, Nina Quinn’s landscaping firm specializing in surprise garden makeovers, is the only thing in her life that seems to be thriving. Her marriage to adulterous police detective Kevin Quinn has wilted. Her antisocial stepson Riley is spreading trouble like pungent manure. Even her gardening tools are disappearing, including a rather valuable set of hoes. Worst of all, the delightful old man who first introduced her to the joys of horticulture is dead—and not by natural causes. Something evil has taken root in Nina’s small Ohio town, and the local police—including dearly unbeloved Kev—are baffled. But it’s amazing what a resourceful gardener can dig up when she puts her mind to it—though, by sticking her hands too deeply into this fetid, fertile soil, Nina might well end up planted beneath her own petunias.

  *I’ve also released The Cinderella Plan, a short contemporary romance. Three years ago, Prince Charming left town without his princess. Now he’s back to win her heart...if she’ll let him.
