Stephany Tullis: Baby Boomer Bash
TAG LINE: Baby Boomers ONLY! No family allowed.
High
school friends Sherry Mattison and Maddy Meriweather refuse to allow their
adult children to ruin their love of Christmas and the family based traditions
that are so near and dear to their hearts. Unlike Ebenezer Scrooge and the
Grinch, they don't decide to cancel this year's Christmas, nor do their hearts
harden. Instead of presenting their annual plea for an extended family
Christmas like those of the good old days, the baby boomers greet their
families on Thanksgiving Day with a new attitude and a feisty festive spirit
that includes a non-traditional Thanksgiving dinner: pot luck!
Their
daughters are shocked but pleased when Christmas plans are not discussed as the
family watches the Thanksgiving Day parade. Everyone is relieved that football
half time focuses on another round of desserts and no mention of drawing names
for the family Christmas gift exchange.
Sherry
and Maddy kick off their plans for their Baby Boomer Christmas celebration with
a Black Friday shopping spree. And then the thirty-day count-down begins!
Will the
boomers' plans implode when someone blows the whistle on their European beach
vacation?

By his own choice, Sam's the most elusive bachelor in town, his walls of
defense firmly in place. But when the feisty little brunette he dated in high
school and college moves back, Sam needs to step up his game, stiffening those
walls to concrete. True love? A forever union? What kind of idiot believes in
that?
No matter which way Sam and Jess turn in their little home town, they run into
each other. And stumbling under the mistletoe isn't what either one needs.

PJ Fiala:
Writing has been a desire my whole life. Once I found the courage to write, life
changed for me in the most profound way. Bringing stories to readers that I'd
enjoy reading and creating characters that are flawed, but lovable is such a
joy.
When not writing, I'm with my family doing
something fun. My husband, Gene, and I
are bikers and enjoy riding to new locations, meeting new people and generally
enjoying this fabulous country we live in.
I come from a family of veterans. My grandfather,
father, brother, two sons, and one daughter-in-law are all veterans. Needless
to say, I am proud to be an American and proud of the service my amazing family
has given.

Cherime MacFarlane:
Meet
Award-Winning, Best-Selling Author Cherime MacFarlane. A prolific multi-genre
author, she has a broad range of interests that reflect her been there-done
that life. Romance, Historical Fiction, Fantasy, Paranormal, all sorts of
characters and plots evolve from a vivid imagination.
I came to Alaska kicking and screaming in 1975, and I never want to leave. I
cut firewood on shares for money to get through the winter. I swore I would not
live above the Alaska Range because it was too cold there and wound up in the
Copper River Basin where it got just a cold as Fairbanks.
My second husband, a Scot from Glasgow, was the love of my life. When I write
Scots dialect, I experienced hearing it from my in-laws. Each time my husband
got on the phone to Scotland after five seconds, I could hardly understand a
word. I was my second husband's chief mechanic's helper and roadie.
I live in a cabin which is slowly being surrounded by the city and wish I were
further out. My two cats and Husky-Collie mix dog are happy in our little slice
of heaven called Alaska. In the silence of winter dreams of people and places
provide a rich pool of ideas to explore.

Nicole Sorrell:
My first love was reading. From the age of ten I read
everything I could get my hands on. I was seventeen the first time I closed a
book and thought, I want to do that. Write a story that good. It took a
few years, but I finally published my first novel, joining the ranks of
contemporary fiction authors. I included everything I love in a book. It's
a romance story, has suspense and surprise, and with book two, became a women's
fiction series.
I'm still a voracious reader, currently residing in a rural area of the
mid-west. After living in various parts of the U.S. and traveling abroad, I
recently moved into the very same home where I grew up. I enjoy country living:
ours is a small community, and everyone knows everybody. The culture of the
city also draws me in: the shopping, dining, and the opera and ballet.
I
love traveling, especially to other countries, and I speak Spanish. I earned a
Bachelor of Arts in Hispanic Literature, and a Bachelor of Science in Fashion
Merchandising. Home decorating is one of my favorite things. Of course I love
to read, and I'm a published poet. I like baking pies and drinking ale.
Oh, and I like playing cornhole, and I spend way more time than I should
playing computer games.
My sidekick is a tiny Yorkshire terrier named Georgie Doodlebug. I call her
GiGi. She's my fur baby.

you’ll find Sybil Shae most days. She loses track of time and reality as she

it, breathes it, and has built her world around it. Love is at the center of
