Leigh Landry

*** Here's a first look at the opening scene of Rim Shot Rebound , the third novella of the Cajun Two-Step  series , releasing in July 2018! ***  RIM SHOT REBOUND by Leigh Landry Chapter 1 Don’t puke. Kelsey had been giving her body that one little command ever since she drove onto Robin’s property. Unfortunately, her stomach was completely ignoring her and currently staging a mutiny. She wasn’t usually sick this late in the day, especially if she’d eaten a decent dinner. Her little pep talk had been working all through the long drive down country roads to Robin’s adorable house out in the middle of Nowhere, Louisiana. Kelsey shouldn’t have had any problem keeping her stomach in check through their weekly rehearsal. But then she’d heard that familiar knock—their old college drum cadence—on Robin’s kitchen door. “Eric!” Robin, their accordion player and band ring leader, pulled his tall, lanky-but-solid frame in for a hug. She was a full head and a half shorter...

Phew! It's been a wild ride so far this year. I've really busy finalizing and publishing my second novella, Six String Sass , which released last week (yay!), and I'm finally getting a chance to breathe and enjoy the excitement and satisfaction that come with putting a new book out in the world. I loved working on that book so much, and I'm looking forward to finishing up the series after I take a week or so off to work on a couple of other (SECRET, for now) projects. In other news, we have new houseguests ... Meet Mama Pasta, Noodle, and Linguine! Last week (yes, in the midst of release week chaos) we took in a nursing cat and her three-day-old kittens. We've never fostered such tiny kitties before, so we're kind of learning on the fly. Basically we're giving Mama Pasta lots of love and support so she can take care of her littles. We have a whole room set up for her (where we keep all of our fosters), but so far she can't roam fo...

November started out pretty quiet, fell into chaos with a book release and 3/4 people down with the flu, then kicked into high gear on the rescue cat front. We took in two bottle babies in September, and after two months of sweet, sweet snuggles, Pumpkin and Spice went back to the shelter and are now available for adoption. These cuties were hard to let go. There were lots of echoes of "Can't we keep them both?" from all members of the household. But if we keep these, we won't have room for the next batch of kittens in need. I've had to remind everyone of that a lot over the past couple weeks! Pumpkin & Spice We also took in this sweet lady for a little while. We've been looking for a snuggly cat to give our youngest some extra love, and we thought this girl might be The One. Sadly, she was pretty stressed about sharing a house with our resident cat, so she's still waiting for her perfect people. Ila  So . . . That leads us to the end ...

It's pretty fitting that this little novella about fighting for your dreams became my debut. May you be the first of many. 💛 Available Now on Amazon
