Book Description

April 2002
Samantha Herrington is determined to prove to her father, the owner of a big city newspaper, that she can write more than laundry tips and sewing advice. She is a serious reporter and bets she will find her front page story in Amesville, Wyoming. Instead, she finds a cranky cowboy whose overbearing protection and passionate kisses keep her from that goal.

Honor is everything to Matthew Morgan. He owes Big John Herrington his life. To pay off the debt, he must watch over the man's only daughter for the space of one summer. It is a situation Matt regrets immediately.

Sam's search for a story brings mayhem and murder, but even worse, her innocence unravels the steel bands that have protected Matt's heart. Can Matt see her safely out of Amesville before he loses his heart? Or is love their true destiny?

Editorial Reviews

Review

"This is a very well written story. Why not read it and see why 'happy endings are a must.'" - Lee Darrow -- From the Lebanon Daily Record

About the Author

Nancy J. Parra believes in the power of a good story. A story well told could change the world and happy endings are a must.

Nancy holds a Bachelor's degree in Journalism from the University of Kansas, but turned to writing fiction when she discovered it was more fun to interview the people in her head. She lives in the Midwest with her wonderful husband, her two almost perfect children, and a mutt named George Bernard, who grew to unexpected proportions.

Saving Samantha is Nancy's first novel for Avalon.

More About the Author

Nancy J. Parra's love of story started early. Enthralled with Laura Ingalls Wilder's Little House books,she tried to talk her 5th grade best friend into writing a pioneer book with her. When that didn't work out, she wrote stories on her own, but soon discovered her short stories were growing longer and longer. She wrote her first full length novel before she was 21. In an attempt to be practical, she got a BS in Journalism, but discovered it was more fun to interview the people in her head and returned to writing novels on the side. Nancy sold her first novel in 2002, and is always writing something new.
With an MA in Writing Popular Fiction, Ms. Parra has written articles on writing, and has given workshops on writing techniques to various library and writers groups. She writes a weekly blog on the art and craft of writing, www.nancyjparra.blogspot.com. Visit her website at www.nancyjparra.com for more information, a list of her books and full reviews. She can also be found at www.facebook.com/nancyjparra and would love to add you as her friend.
