Author Pamela S. Thibodeaux is here to talk about her choice for Fall #RomanticTravel and her Tempered Series Bundle. I had no idea Bandera was so beautiful.

It’s no secret I love Bandera, Texas so when my author friends decided to do this #FallRomanticTravel idea, it was a no brainer that Bandera would be on my list.

What makes this town so special and romantic?

Besides the fact that it is known as the “Cowboy Capital of the World” (I mean, what’s more romantic than cowboys, right?) – Bandera is seated in the heart of the Texas Hill Country.

I don’t know about you, but there’s not much that is more romantic than sitting by a campfire beneath a start studded sky, or watching a beautiful sunset paint the clouds glorious hues of peach, gold and purple.

Then of course, there is sitting on a bench on top of a hill or having your morning coffee as the sun rises over those same hills.

If you ever want to get away, visit Bandera, Texas and the Silver Spur Guest Ranch, where there’s plenty of opportunities for romance.

Blurb:

Now all 4 titles in the Tempered Series by Pamela S Thibodeaux are combined into a single book along with a bonus short story and a sneak peek into #5 in the series Tempered Truth (coming sometime in the near future)!

Contains: Tempered Hearts, Tempered Dreams, Tempered Fire, Tempered Joy, & Lori’s Redemption

Start at the beginning and follow these beloved characters throughout the years as love crosses the lines of age and strengthens the bonds of friendship.

Author Tina Gayle is here to kick off our Fall #RomanticTravel blog exchange with Las Vegas, the Grand Canyon, and an excerpt from her novel, CEO’s Widow.

Grand Canyon from helicopter, c. Tina Gayle

One of my favorite romantic trips is to Vegas. We had plenty of time to shop, people watch and visit the sites. Also what topped the trip off was taking a helicopter ride over the Grand Canyon. Having never been up in a helicopter before this alone was a treat. The trip to the canyon and back was awesome too.

CEO’s Widow
Book 4 of the Executives’ Wives’ Club series

Genre: Contemporary Romance with strong women’s fiction elements

Four women…
One fatal car wreck…
Everyone’s lives changed…

Blurb:

After surviving the grief from her husband’s death, Marianne Clark has built a new life with the help of the other Executive Wives. She plans to enjoy grandchildren and friends until her doctor tells her he found a lump in her breast. Her world turned upside down. She re-evaluates her priorities and decides she will grab hold of life with both hands.

Knox Turner lost his first wife to cancer. He’s determined not to let Marianne face this challenge alone.

Can this couple face the trials ahead and build a future together?

Excerpt:

Incapable of resisting, Marianne set a hand on his chest and absorbed the pleasure of being in this man’s arms again. Too bad the bliss couldn’t last longer. He needed to get back to work. She had errands to run. “Knox, you’re making it harder and harder to resist you.”

“Then don’t. We’ve both had more than enough time to know what we want. Jack and Betty both died almost two years ago. We needed to move on.” He caressed a hand along her back, easing her body even closer to the hard line of his.

Marianne smiled. She’d known him for years as her husband’s boss and respected for all he’d accomplished in the business world. Her hang-up over their age difference grew less and less important as more time passed. “Shouldn’t we at least date a few other people first? Test the water. Make sure we’re not making a mistake by latching onto the first person we’re attracted to.”

“Good, so you admit you find me attractive?” He lowered his head and nuzzled the side of her neck, playfully nipping at her ear.

She sighed. His tantalizing touch and the deep rumble of his voice tempted her into sliding her hand along the back of his neck. Her fingers slid through his silky hair, and she marveled at sensual thrill of being so close to him. For months now, she’d convinced herself her life was full enough with just her kids and grandkids.

Could she be wrong?
