I’m delighted to welcome another of the “Ten Brides for Ten Heroes” authors to my blog today. Her name is Mona Risk and she is a wonderful writer with many titles to her credit that you can find here on Amazon. We were also collaborators with the Free Partay events and so some of you might recognize her name.
To be honest, I never thought that hazardous waste
analysis would lead me to write novels, but with a father who was a professor
in literature and published author, I grew up surrounded by books. When my
Ph.D. and work in chemistry landed me contracts to refurbish laboratories in
foreign countries, I traveled to more than fifty countries. To relax from my
hectic schedule, I avidly read romance and mentally plotted my own novels.
Eventually, I left a scientific career to share with readers the many stories
brewing in my head.

The Holiday Babies Series is the story of the Ramsay
family who lives in the heart of Kentucky and vacations in Florida. A family
with values and a strong sense of unity that comprises five daughters and their
partners, and numerous babies who create chaos and bring smiles.

thought that my boxed set Holiday Babies would consist of three novels:
the stories of the two oldest Ramsay sisters, Madelyn and Roxanne, and that of
their mother, Barbara.
