In My Mother’s Footsteps by Forbes Arnone
Anela Alborn’s life is a lie. After growing up without the love of a father, her mother reveals his identity. Tragedy strikes and she sets off on an adventure that leads to more than she could ever imagine. Bumping into Christian Sivers distracts her from the real man of her dreams, her father. Will he live up to her dreams? And does she follow in her mother’s footsteps?
Here’s an excerpt:
I swung the door open and jumped into Christian’s arms, wrapping my legs around his waist and locking him in my embrace.
“Oomph! I take it you missed me?” he asked with a chuckle.
“Yeah,” I whispered into his neck.
I felt something poking my cheek as it rested against his shoulder and pulled back to see what it was. My mouth dropped open and I felt my eyes bulge out. Before I could think, I jumped down and stood back, just taking in the sight before me. I wouldn’t be surprised if I was drooling. My man — my handsome man — was dressed in his Class A’s and looking mighty fine, I might add. The uniform had a navy blue jacket with royal blue pants. He was delicious from the beret on his head to the shine on his shoes. My heart thumped through my breastbone and I struggled to breathe. I looked up, turning bright red because he was watching me with such amusement.
“You like?” he wondered with his crooked cocky smile.
I shook my head in the negative. “No, I love,” I said with a smile and reached out to run my fingers over the stripes on his sleeve. He had five stripes, three on the top and two on the bottom. “What’s the occasion?”
“Just wanted to send you off in style, angel.”

Haunted Raine
Distracted by the everyday routine of raising children, being a wife, and keeping a home, Lorraine Morrissey let life pass her by. Her wakeup call comes when she realizes that with their children gone, her husband Richard is rarely home, and she’s filling her solitary days with trivial tasks.

Author Bio:
Jennifer Garcia’s (aka Forbes Arnone) love of travel began when she traveled to the West Coast to visit her father at the age of three. Her home until she was sixteen was a small coastal town near Boston. She currently resides in Los Angeles with her husband, two sons, and two dogs.
Her lifelong love for reading and writing was put aside for many years while she made her way in the world and nurtured her young family. Even though she is older, and life never seems to settle, she’s finding her way while attending college full-time in pursuit of a B.A. in English Literature. She also runs a business, and is still caring for her family. Believing she can do it all, with the help of her family, she worked on her first novel during the late hours of the night while balancing the rest of her life during the day. Her hard work paid off, as her first novel, My Mr. Manny, will be published August 2013.
