GREAT BOOK CLUB EVENT

Potential Book Signings for Your Book Club … If you have a book club meeting coming up this summer, consider inviting me or one of our other Founding Authors to a book signing and in-person discussion. Arrange a schedule through Art Williams at artwilliamswrites@gmail.com

Georgia Book Club Meeting: Recently, I had a great opportunity to meet with a book club in Peachtree City, Georgia. My connection to the out-of-state club was through my dear sister-in-law who attends a monthly book club which gathers to review and discuss chosen titles. The lead up to the January meeting began way back in 2025 around August and resulted in a meeting with the group of ladies pictured below.

  

 

 

 

 

 

In addition to recalling specific scenes and favorite characters in the current novel, we talked about the sequel (working title: Holding On) that is underway. In fact, I asked two of the members to read different versions of the opening chapter of the sequel. I was impressed by how well they read the pages without a rehearsal. The group’s feedback about the opening chapters will be a help as I fine-tune the story.

If you know of a book club in your area, please let me know who to contact via email: artwilliamswrites@gmail.com

My novel, Turning Points, is getting high 5-star ratings and great reviews. The book is a blend of historical fiction, romance, and western genres, with plenty of action, as determined pioneer men, women, and children head west along the Oregon Trail in a wagon train. The hero, Captain Andrew Greene, seeks a new destiny after surviving wars and tragedies. Will he survive the dangerous journey, find love, and a rewarding future?

 Like a Mystery?

Following is a blurb about the new, just released novel, plus links to learn more and to order the eBook and/or paperback versions.

          Murder crashes the pet products trade show…

  “The Pet Palace booth is the undisputed crown jewel of the pet products trade show, and its owners, two retired pro football players, bring their own brand of star power to the sale of high-end, luxury gear.     

When one of them dies at the show, however, he leaves behind jealous competitors, angry suppliers, a line of women he pumped and dumped, and a fiancée he may not even have known about. Heather McNeil’s job as assistant to the director of the D.C. Market and Commerce Center is mostly about keeping events running smoothly, dealing with disputes, accidents, and conflict. She never signed on for solving murders, but sometimes it’s part of the job, too.
Amidst the plethora of cozy canine couture, upscale pet feeding stations, slick kitty litter boxes, and unmentionable lizard foods, Heather has to sort through the human emotions at play and follow the clues to a killer, all while dealing with her own personal heartbreak.”

NEW NOVEL RELEASE – Steamy Romance

The Scarlett Rose Prophecy by one of our Founding Authors, DK McLaughlin

The Scarlett Rose Prophecy : A Billionaire Forbidden Love Romance (Psychic Flames Series Book 1) Kindle Edition

About The Scarlett Rose Prophecy …

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Book 1 of 1: Psychic Flames Series

The girl nobody wanted became the heiress everyone desires —

Scarlett: On opening day of my new bookstore, Finnegan Kincaid struts in and purchases a rare collectible title. When I reach for his black credit card, my hand brushes his and a strange shiver zings through me. Our eyes meet and I gasp. Aquamarine eyes, the exact color my psychic friend predicted. Will her other predictions also come true?

Stranger yet, a woman walks into my bookstore claiming she’s my aunt and that I’m not who I think I am. Is this British woman behind the $1 million check that allowed me to purchase this bookstore?

She’s his obsession. He will cross oceans, defy royalty, and go to war with the mafia to make Scarlett his —

Finnegan: Burned by my last serious relationship, I’m over love. My needs are met by women who understand the rules—there is no chance of a second date. My focus is on my investments and expanding my net worth.

However, everything changes when I walk into a small corner bookstore—Scarlett Rose. I shouldn’t want her, but I will stop at nothing to have her.

The Scarlett Rose Prophecy is a full-length, spicy, billionaire romance with a morally gray hero who falls first, and a guaranteed happily ever after. It’s the first book in the Psychic Flames romance series, but can be read as a standalone.
