TRUSTING DELILAH

Roman Aiza is the second born son of the Aiza clan. He also owns and operates a private security company and has an ongoing contract with one of Florida's most influential residents. He is patrolling at a party when he encounters a woman who will haunt him. A woman who at their first meeting, manages to walk right out of his hands when he follows her for trespassing. She manages to do this without giving Roman a single reason why she is in the depths of the house he is protecting. When he does finally locate her days later, his goal is to prove that his instincts are wrong. She is not the woman that all of his senses are clamoring for.

Yet when the daughter of Roman's largest and closest account is kidnapped and held for ransom, will they be able to build a trust between them? Or will their own secrets keep them apart?

Trusting Delilah kept my attention from first word to last. This is a story that grabs all the emotions and the senses.
Judith Rochelle, Author of Cutter's Law and Redemption.


A TRUST EARNED

Selene Aiza is a very compassionate woman by nature, and fiercely protective of those she cares for. A renowned doctor with gentle patient skills, she prefers the wild country of western Oregon and the secluded hospital where she can help the people who truly need her assistance. And in the depths of those wooded wilds she can keep her secrets well hidden.

She is safe until the man she encounters by pure chance becomes the hospital's first choice as co-administrator. Her secrets and her very life fall into jeopardy, and only he can save her. He could also destroy her.

Linda Mooney

Annie Mayall was a young bride, brought to Montana in 1940 by her new husband to start their new life together...as soon as he struck it rich in the promised silver mines.

Abandoned for three long, desperate, and lonely years, Annie was forced to survive by herself in the wilds of the mountains. Until one stormy night brought a severely wounded stranger to her tiny one-room cabin. A stranger both mystical and fascinating. A stranger who not only brought her happiness, but a kind of love she never knew existed.

Cyber picnic with the pals!

Hey all,

I'm going to be hanging out with Stella and the gang at Shadow Heights today--well after I get my morning errands done I will be.

There's going to be all kinds of fun stuff, authors having giveaways, excerpts, fun stuff about up-coming books and in general just a day of mayhem.

Let me give you an idea of who else will be around. Watch out for the volleyball net, it's still going up.

Participating authors:
Casandra Curtis
Alexandra Ivy
Samantha Sommersby
Kayleigh Jamison
Selena Illyria
Katrina Strauss
Diana Castilleja
Marie Force

And many more!

Now I know it's a big town and a little hard to get around, so let me give you directions. You won't even need a pencil to write them down. LOL

To play, you do have to register, but tell the guy at the gate you're there for the picnic and he'll let you through. Once you're in Shadow Heights, head down to the West End. It's a block after the Business district, then check out the Town Square Park. See the Jumpy for the kids? Yep, that's us. We'll have burgers and 'dogs--the kind that go on buns and probably the kind that eat them too. If you have a woof, bring him! We're an animal friendly group.

Like I said, I'll be there a little later this morning, probably about noon, but I should be there until I'm too red to sit on my own petard. LOL!!! So the only address you really need is this one right here  *flashing neon sign* >>   http://www.shadowheights.com/forum/index.php

Hope you'll come hang out with us. I heard someone was bringing a margarita machine and a shaved ice trailer for the kids. Don't want to miss those!

A generous review for A Trust Earned!

4.5 books!!

From Fennel @ LASR:


Ms. Castilleja portrays her characters with sensitivity and precision, and the reader happily follows as she leads them through their trials to the HEA. Her secondary characters enhance her hero and heroine and yet have their place in this series.

That I missed the opening book has not detracted from my enjoyment and involvement with Bram, Selene and the rest of her cast. All it had achieved is my desire to find and read Diana's first book.
