My latest book, Love Without End, had a release date of 11/18/14 all this year. I knew that the book started arriving in stores around the first of this month because readers told me they’d found it and bought it. But Amazon and B&N and iBooks were still showing the release date of the 18th. Then on this Tuesday morning, that changed. Suddenly the release date was 11/11/14, and ebooks started arriving on readers.
Love Without End has garnered great reviews from Publishers Weekly, CBA Retailers, and RT Book Reviews, and I couldn’t be more excited about this first book in the Kings Meadow Romance series. I fell in love with Kings Meadow, the setting of my stand-alone novel, A Promise Kept. I loved it so much I wasn’t willing to let go of it, which is why I decided to write a contemporary romance series there. What’s not to love about a small town in the mountains of Idaho with cowboys and horses?
Chet Leonard, owner of a quarter horse ranch, had a role in A Promise Kept. As the creator, I gave him a lot of grief to deal with, and he most definitely didn’t “get the girl” or the happy ending in that novel. I felt like I owed him a second chance at love. It was a good choice. Readers are loving him as the hero of Love Without End, just as I do.
I have completed the writing and revising of the second book in the series, Whenever You Come Around (May 2015), and I’m currently revising a novella in the Year of Weddings series which is also set in Kings Meadow, I Hope You Dance (July 2015). I got really tickled when I saw the editor’s notes on the novella manuscript. Lots and lots of hearts and smiley faces. I truly believe readers are going to feel the same way.
Soon I’ll begin writing the final novel in the series which will release in early 2016. I say that with great reluctance. I already dread leaving this setting and these characters behind. They have captured my heart completely.
I hope you’ll come along for the ride.

I look forward to your new book. I’ve read many of your works. My heart looks forward to being warmed again my your pen. I’m so thankful for Christian writers. I want to focus on what is good, what is right, what is noble, pure & lovely, and your words do just that.
Blessings to you,
Cindy
Cindy, what a sweet and encouraging comment. Bless you, friend.
Yippee! Congratulations on your release, Robin. I’ll spread the word on social media!
Thanks so much, Becky. Appreciate you.
Oh, Robin — I’m so excited — guess what I’m reading right now???? I laid it out on my nightstand last night all ready to start reading today but I had to take a sneak peak and didn’t turn the lights out until midnight! It’s stunning. Your words just grabbed hold of me and didn’t want to let go. And then I dreamed about horses. I guess my subconscious didn’t want to let go either. And I love that the other books in the series are being released close together. Anticipation is so much fun!
Oh, Kav. You really made me smile. Thanks!
