Jean Adams' A PLACE OF HEALING has been contracted with The Wild Rose Press. Set on a New Zealand beach, it tells the story of a policewoman with a tortured soul and a sexy psychologist determined to help her. Congratulations, Jean!

Anne Whitfield's short story from The Wild Rose Press, "To Love Again," received a lovely review from Joyfully Reviewed. "'To Love Again' has caught exactly the longing for and the fear of beginning a new relationship. Anne Whitfield’s book is well written, and the heroine is well rounded enough to be able to laugh at herself."

Blurb: Ellen is running late to catch a train to catch a plane. But as she packs, she wonders if she's doing the right thing. Harry is there at the airport, waiting for her. She also knows he's waiting for much more. He's hoping this holiday together will cement their relationship. Does she want it to? Does she need it? Can she start another chapter of her life, which includes a man again?
