Here's the back blurb from The Bride's Basket:

Time was running out for Nora Elliott. Fear rides her every moment. She must complete the first circle, before the new one begins and the two circles can join…. She must believe….
Dan, the man who loves and waits, dreams of Nora carrying her bride’s basket to him. How much longer will he wait? Uniquely bound to two women, each strengthening her, and with Dan’s love, Nora should be happy. Yet pieces of Nora’s heart drift just outside her desperate grasp: one son who hates her and another son is missing.

Nora lifts a ribbon to the midnight wind, beckoning her missing sons: Blood of my blood, come to me. One son heeds her call; he comes full circle to help her—back to the small Ozarks town and those he’s wronged. Another son is out there somewhere and she aches for him. To marry Dan, her heart must be whole. She must complete the circle. She must believe…
~~~
Here's what Andrea, a reviewer has to say:

"This is a story of Nora. It is also a type of dance. Woven into it are tears, release, gathering, weakness, strength and hope. Metaphors abound throughout. It is a book that will make you laugh and cry...sometimes at the same time. It is lush in a fairly spartan way, wistful and active, smoothing and resetting within and without. London has written a lyrical story you'll return to again. I highly recommend this work."

Book Cover Design


I'm lining up promotions, etc. for THE BRIDE'S BASKET, on Sale November 1. It is the 3rd of the series and I suggest reading them in order. You'll be seeing this graphic a lot. :) An author can do much of their own pointers when working with a book designer, or doing their own work, which I sometimes do, too.

I am extremely proud of these covers as I helped choose the stockphotos, layouts and those are my baskets on the cover and spine of the paperbacks, THE BASKET MAKER'S WIFE (Free for a limited time) and THE EGG BASKET now 2.99 for a limited time. One of the best things you can do to help an author is to leave those reviews and to share the love with your friends. Do leave reviews, please? Thank you.

>>THE BASKET MAKER'S WIFE (BOOK 1): KINDLE/UK/iBOOKS/KOBO/NOOK
>>THE EGG BASKET: AMAZON/iBOOKS/KOBO/NOOK

My Basket Series has had to wait, and I am so pleased with it, typically labeled romantic women's fiction.  

ABOUT cover design. I use many of my own ideas, whether a designer does the covers or I do. So I have a lot of stuff, including those baskets.

Also many things reside in my garage, including this handmade walnut cradle. I'm dying to use it on The Cowboy and the Cradle's new cover. (Remember THE TALLCHIEF SERIES, 9 or 11 of them? Very popular.) I hunted all over stockphotos, just as I did when looking for the right baskets for the book designer. (Thank you, NajQamberDesigns.com.) I've got the cowboy picked out. I used lemon oil polish and the cradle polished right up. I may put a quilt in it or--

Wait a minute! Why don't you send ideas of what to put in this cradle? CLICK HERE.

AND be sure to subscribe to my ENEWSLETTER? I've got lots of giveaways and contests coming up, plus what I'm doing--and my daughters know that I am really a busy, busy person. :)

Meanwhile, here's a brand new cover for MIDNIGHT RIDER. 

KINDLE/KOBO/NOOK/more soon!

BLURB:
Hannah Ferguson is back in Jasmine, Wyoming, and rancher Dan Blaylock is so ready. She’s ruined him for other women and now she and her ranch are under Dan's financial thumb. But Hannah isn’t the teenage girl who once wanted him, an older man. She’s a contrary, sexy redhead, and determined to stand on her own feet, despite the odds stacked against her. 
     While Dan’s set to have his fire-woman, she’s not that easy, set on her own path—desperate to find answers from the past. 

Yet neither can deny the fire between them....

Meaning of Fall Season

To me, the meaning of fall season translates to color, Thank You Lord for cooler weather, and doing the things I like best.

I'll be out, driving around in the fall color, taking lots of fall season pictures. Fall in the Ozarks should be gorgeous this year, with all the rain. The oak trees turn to a bright yellow orange.

This shot is of persimmons. There is a persimmon tree in my neighborhood and the deer love them--so do skunks. :)

Inside the fleshy pulp (some people harvest these for jam or pies) is a seed. When split, this seed reveals the coming winter, mild or hard. If the image inside the seed is of a fork, the winter will be mild. If it is a spoon, the winter will be hard--I guess this signifies hard shoveling? :)

According to my neighbor who read this somewhere, this seed is 85% correct in predictions. This year, the seeds are spoons. So a hard winter.

To celebrate Fall season colors, I just designed a new personal Facebook Banner, but hope you check out my CAIT LONDON BOOKS page and LIKE it? I'm planning promo now, including giveaways and contests and hopefully--parties. My ENEWSLETTER will have MORE.


I am so looking forward to the launch of The Bride's Basket in November. All of this Basket Series contains my life's elements: children, friends, crocheting, etc.
But today, it's all about The Bride's Basket. I hope you've read the first two in the series.
