Great news for my readers, friends, and many fans of The Dogfather Series! Old Dog New Tricks, book nine, is NOW AVAILABLE in digital and print at all retailers! This is Daniel's story, the man who started it all, and I promise great love, good laughs, and more than a few (happy, mostly) tears. Here's the very first review that appeared on Goodreads:

"Get ready for a beautifully written, deeply emotional, often humorous, and always heartwarming story of two characters who, after devastating loss, relearn the joy of opening hearts to life, to love, and to the possibility of a second happily ever after...a heart-tugging, life-affirming, deeply romantic journey between two characters who may have snow on the roof, but still hold plenty of fire in their souls. Lots of happy tears, especially in the final chapters. Keep the tissues handy. :)" -- Goodreads Reader and Book Blogger PJ

Also big news: I'm running a VERY LIMITED TIME sale for a fan-favorite book in the series, Bad to the Bone. It's only $0.99 for a short time, so if you haven't read this emotional and treasured title, it's a good time to grab it! All of the books in the series stand entirely on their own -- no cliffhangers, no compelling reason to read them in order. (Although it's fun to watch the family grow and change with each book!) The book will return to full price shortly, so get it while it's less than a buck!

Remember I donate a portion of sales from every book in the series to Alaqua Animal Refuge, where every cover in the series was shot (with rescue dogs on every cover and local dog lovers as models). By sharing a percentage of first month's sales plus being able to augment that periodically when sales are super strong, we've donated more than $10,000 so far and fully expect that number to go up, up, up. All because of my wonderful, supportive readers. I thank you, Alaqua thanks you, and the precious rescue animals who find their forever home are wagging their tails with love. (I adopted a precious pup named Rosie from Alaqua late last year and she not only changed my life, she really helped me write Old Dog New Tricks. There's a reader letter in the end that explains how she did that!)

If you love the series, love dogs, love my books, or just love to connect with other like-minded readers, please join my private Dogfather Fans facebook page! I share snippets right from my manuscript in progress, have weekly (sometimes daily) giveaways, and talk openly about my process, my characters, and my life. It's a page where we celebrate "tails and tales" and all readers are welcome!
