It’s that time of the years…vacation time. When the weather turns hot, I start thinking about someplace cool. Usually it’s outdoors in our pool, but this year, my husband and I went to our favorite vacation spot, Pagosa Springs, Colorado.

Pagosa is surrounded  by breathtaking mountains wherever you look.

This was taken on top of Wolf Creek Pass.

This is a natural canyon that runs close to the place where we stayed. You can see the river down below. There are ice caves up on top. We’ve hiked the path before. It’s difficult, but the view is worth it.

Aspen trees are everywhere. This photo was taken along Plumtaw Road. A scenic drive that has hundreds of old Aspen trees.

Taken on a four-wheel trip, this is an amazing view from on high.

While vacations are fun, they can be exhausting and it’s always good to be home again.

This month, I have a new Love Inspired Suspense out, entitled Standoff At Midnight Mountain that I’m happy to share with you. 

Blurb: Her brother is missing.
And she’s the next target.

After her CIA operative brother disappears, leaving behind only a cryptic message, armed men target former agent Rachel Simmons for information. But with help from her ex, Agent Alex Booth, Rachel eludes them, trekking into the mountains in search of her brother. Pursued through the wilderness by highly trained—and very familiar—men, can Alex and Rachel expose a conspiracy that goes deeper than they ever imagined?

So what about you? Do you have any vacation plans coming up?

All the best…
