A sneak peak at Tule Publishing’s Most Anticipated Releases of 2021:
Remember Me at Willoughby Close by Kate Hewitt – 1/19
Return to the magic of Willoughby Close once more in the fourth installment in the series. Follow along with Laura and James as they find their much-deserved HEA. We recommend keeping a box of tissues nearby—for both happy and sad tears!
Texas Forged by Eve Gaddy – 3/4
Things are heating up quickly in the first of Gaddy’s new Texas True series, when a sexy metal artist falls for his high school crush. Their casual friendship quickly combusts into an intensely hot affair with an unexpected surprise…a pregnancy. Chantel’s been hurt before…can Gabe convince her he’s the one?
She Gets What She Wants by Denise N. Wheatley – 3/9
Have you ever dreamed of getting on a plane to start your new life? Well Devon Jacobs has, and that’s exactly what she does in Wheatley’s new Fearless Fairytale series. Join Devon as she overcomes her insecurities, gains confidence, and conquers Hollywood. Who ever said nice girls can’t win?
Montana Cowboy Daddy by Jane Porter – 4/1
Jane Porter is back with the third book in her Wyatt Brothers of Montana series, and this time there’s a baby! When a woman he’s never seen before shows up with a baby she claims is his, professional rodeo cowboy Billy Wyatt’s world is turned inside out. Billy never thought he wanted to be a father, but looking into the eyes of the baby who is supposedly his—and whose blue eyes mirror his own—he’s hooked. But he’s hooked on the woman who’s holding the baby too…
An Acquired Taste by Kelly Cain – 6/8
May the best chef win in the first of Cain’s Everheart Brothers of Texas series! Rowan Townsend’s farm-to-table collard greens have long been bringing everyone to the yard, but limits on the restaurant’s size have led to long waits. Looking to expand the restaurant, she enters a televised chef competition. The problem? Her infuriatingly-talented nemesis from culinary school also enters. Their rivalry soon sparks fireworks in the kitchen and, as the competition heats up, so does Rowan’s attraction to Knox.

Montana Cowboy Christmas by Jane Porter. I love her stories. Also The Christmas Wish.
irishpax
I love Eve Gaddy and her’s snapped out at me. I’m also a big Jane Porter fan so the name popped as a must. Finally I’ve been into “chefs” lately so Ms. Cain’s work stuck out. Though I have to say I think of all those featured above Texas Forged is the book I want to snuggle up with first.

RE: Manuscript Critique Day 4
I’ve been writing since I was 12. I started with poetry then moved to short stories. I wrote two children’s stories along with the Romances. They are about tiny dogs who want to be heroes.
Pammie R.
The two with cowboys and babies caught my eye. I am partial to both tropes.
