Mountain Climbing Anyone? ~ Jean C. Gordon

Anyone here climbed a mountain? Some years ago, my husband and I attempted to climb Mt. Marcy, the highest peak in New York--5,344 feet. It's in the Adirondack Mountains. However, we started too late in the morning and by late afternoon had gotten only about half way to the peak. Then, we got spooked by some paw prints we were afraid were bear prints and turned around. By the time we got back to the base, we were sure the prints were probably from a dog. 😌

Josh Lewis, the hero in my new No Brides Club book No Time for Adventure, is a much more experienced mountain climber. He's climbed mountains, scaled cliffs, and is a certified skydiving instructor. If it's an extreme sport, he's done it and probably offers it through his No Limits Adventure Tours. My heroine Victoria Hambersby isn't nearly as adventuresome. Or is she?

Released Today ~ August 7

The No Brides Club: A group of women friends makes a pact not to let love interfere with their careers. Could meeting the right man at the wrong time cause them to break their vows? A New Release the 1st Friday of each month through 2020 (All books can be read as standalones.)

Mental health nurse practitioner Victoria Hambersby is on the verge of completing her career dream to create a VA program that will help vets with physical and mental challenges stretch their abilities. Needless to say, Vic is completely blindsided when she is informed that she must combine her program with that of Joshua Lewis, the owner of “No Limits” extreme adventure company. 

Since two of his sisters are also members of the No Brides Club, Josh is aware of the no romance before career goals motto. So while he finds Vic attractive, the focus needs to stay on finding a way to blend their proposal ideas. Which won’t be easy, as they both have baggage from the past coloring their viewpoints.

To get a better idea of what Josh’s company has to offer, Vic agrees to a weekend adventure, which despite herself, stirs her inner thrill-seeker. Surprisingly they may have more in common than they believe, but can they overcome their defensive barriers to let go of the past and reach for the future?

An "Engaging" Post ~ Jean C. Gordon

LETCHWORTH STATE PARK (NY)

With Valentine's Day coming up fast, I was reminiscing about young love--specifically ours--and our engagement. It didn't happen in February but March (close enough). My then-college-boyfriend asked me if I wanted to take a Sunday drive to Letchworth State Park--the Grand Canyon of the East--which was a nice ride from our parents' houses.

I got a little suspicious, though, when he asked me to wear a particular outfit. My husband is not a fashionista by any stretch of the imagination. He asked to wear my wool plaid mini-skirt culottes (who remembers those?) and a navy blue sweater which matched the blue in the plaid. When we got to Letchworth, we hiked to a particular rock outcropping he knew of. He got down on one knee and did the deed. Obviously, I said "yes."

But that's not the end of the day. When he drove me home, he came in to talk to my dad. Yes, ask for my hand. The next part, I got second hand from him. Apparently, when he told Dad we were getting married, Dad said "oh." My husband thought he said "no" and didn't know what to do since he was only asking because he thought Dad would like that. Then Dad smiled and shook his hand and gave him a hug to welcome him to the family.

A Fun New Release from Jean C. Gordon

What do you get when six friends make a pact not to let love get in the way of their careers? The No Brides Club—and the question: Could meeting the right man at the wrong time cause them to break their vows to each other?

My No Brides Club book, No Time for Apologies, releases tomorrow, February 1. These fun romances centered around six career women in New York City can be read individually or as a series--in any order.

Kate Lewis left her family's dairy farm and fell in love with everything about New York City's especially the high-powered, fast-paced world of finance. Once content to lie in the grass and watch clouds float across the sky, her biggest dream now is to work her way to the top of Wall Street.

Jon Smith is so much more than his plain name implies. He's also a rising star in the world of finance, on a mission to save his grandfather's cattle farm, and Kate's former high school admirer.

When a shocking twist of fate puts these two in direct competition for a job they both covet, the last thing they need is any new sparks of attraction. Too bad fate isn't done with them yet.

Will they give in to their attraction, or is their newfound rivalry too intense to put aside? Find out in this sweet big city twist on the classic second chance romance theme.
