More Books for Christmas Giving



The Santa Claus Machine is for old and young alike. It tells the story of how Santa is replaced by a machine that tells children to be greedy. Santa becomes disheartened and thinks he should cancel Christmas until someone else has a change of heart. The best part, the story the Santa Machine is reprogrammed to tell the world. This is a very Christian story.

The Reluctant Farmer of Whimsey Hill

by Bradford M. Smith, with Nancy Raven Smith and Lynn Raven

The Reluctant Farmer makes a great holiday gift for any of your friends who enjoyed Marley & Me: Life and Love with the World's Worst Dog by John Grogan and All Creatures Great and Small by James Herriot.

The story is a light-hearted memoir about Brad, a young urban, robotics engineer who marries a woman who wants to rescue horses, dogs, and cats. To please her, they move to a rural Virginia farm.

Brad’s a man who values order, logic, and cleanliness. The robots he works with suit him perfectly. When he programs them, they do what they’re supposed to. The robots never pee, poop, bite, kick, or drag him where he doesn’t want to go. Unfortunately his wife's animals do.

Land Sharks – A Swindle in Sumatra

by Nancy Raven Smith

An Amazon/Kindle Scout Selection Winner

Land Sharks is an adventure mystery in the same flavor as the movie, Romancing the Stone, and should make a wonderful gift for readers who like an added bit of romance in their stories. 

In Land Sharks, Lexi Winslow is a fraud investigator at a private Beverly Hills bank. As a favor to her boss, she’s sent to fetch home the daughter of the bank’s biggest client. So Lexi’s off to Sumatra where the wayward daughter and her latest boyfriend were last seen. She has the added complication of having to take the boss’ inexperienced son along for training.

Once Lexi arrives at an isolated resort carved out of the remote Sumatran jungle, Lexi discovers there are more deadly dangers inside the hotel than the crocodiles and head hunters outside. It is a hotel where women check in, but most don’t check out.

And of all the places in the world, Lexi runs into her ex-lover, who not only conned his way into her heart, but is always conning someone somewhere. Lexi is determined to find out what is going on and to get everyone out alive.

“Footprints in the Frost” by Jackie Taylor Zortman is a good Christmas gift for anyone who enjoys reading about the work and private life of a handsome homicide detective, including his romances.  

You can tag along to escape the stresses of the city to unwind in  his beautiful, remote Colorado mountain cabin.  Meet his friends and romp in the snow over the holidays or rub shoulders with the “beautiful people” at a famous nearby ski resort. 

 Christmas plays a major part in this first place award winning fiction novel, so find out what that is.

CHANUKAH GUILT could make a good  Christmas gift, but it might be more appropriate for … Chanukah!


My book that I know quite a few people have given as gifts is TALK DIRTY YIDDISH. It's inexpensive and small and makes a great stocking stuffer or secret Santa gift.

Need to Catch Up With My Blog Tour?

Remember, the person who comments on the most posts on my blog tour will win a copy of the three books that come before No Bells . No Sanctuary is the story of two ministers, two churches, two wives and one murder. Officer Stacey Wilbur and Detective Doug Milligan are a couple in this one despite Stacey's vow not to date anyone on the Rocky Bluff P.D. This is also where she begins her career as the vice officer for the department. An Axe To Grind is about a stalker who loses his head. When Detective Doug Milligan strikes out on his own to investigate a suspect, he disappears.  A distraught Stacey follows his trail. In Angel Lost as plans for her perfect wedding fill her mind, Officer Stacey Wilbur is sent out to trap a flasher. The new hire realizes Rocky Bluff P.D. is not the answer to his problem. Abel Navarro can’t concentrate on the job because of worry about his mother. Officer Gordon Butler has his usual upsets. The sudden appearance of an angel in the window of a fu

Meet Morgen Bailey from the UK

Like I do with many folks, I met Morgen through the Internet when I learned about the great interviews she does. I thought it would be fun to turn the tables on Morgen and find out something things about her, so here goes: Morgen, except for the fact that you do terrific interviews I know very little about you. So here goes with my battery of questions. First, tell me something about your background, including where you live. Thank you Marilyn. I live in Middle England really; Northampton. About as far away from water as you can get (3 hours) which I don’t quite understand as I love water; every picture (actually subconsciously until a friend pointed it out) in my house contains water. I’m one of two siblings, I have an older brother who’s an IT project Manager and lives in Zurich, Switzerland so I see him 2-3 times a year (birthdays, Christmas; the latter spent in my mum’s kitchen / diner with opposing laptops). My father died September 2011 so she potters while my brother an

Today is My Birthday!

I never thought I'd live this long! The last few years, birthday celebrations have usually been a nice dinner out in a restaurant. Hard to do these days. Sometimes cake and ice cream is how we celebrate. This year my granddaughter, Melissa, is doing something special. She's taking her grandpa and me to a place about 1 1/2 hours away for lunch, called The Secret Garden. I've not only never been there, but I've never heard of it. I took a peek on the Internet and it looks like a beautiful place to celebrate most anything. Yes, I'm excited. I'll take pictures and report on it when I get back. Melissa is special. Everyone loves here, young and old alike. I was in the delivery room when she was born--exciting and wonderous. I babysat her many times until her mom and dad moved to Central California. (We live there now. When she was a teen, she came with me when I took the women in my care home to church camp, and was an unbelievable help. I couldn&
