Lowcountry Charm: Suspense, romance and ghosts, launching Oct. 25

If you read The Palm Court Trilogy, you know Nancy Parsons’ brand of Southern sass well. Lowcountry Charm: A Palm Court Suspense is a prequel to the trilogy, and it’s a standalone, so no need to read the trilogy beforehand. (But I hope you’ll read them all.)

Nancy becomes the sole caregiver to her five grandsons, following a fatal car accident involving her son and daughter-in-law. As unexplainable and frightening occurrences take place, Nancy works to identify who is responsible and a way to protect her family.

In the meantime, she reconnects with an ex-boyfriend and finds an heirloom charm bracelet with an otherworldly connection. Uncovering this romantic spark and the bracelet bring both happiness and complexities to Nancy’s life. Will she uncover who is wreaking havoc and put an end to the chaos before someone is hurt?

Get your copy of The Word Dancer: An Appalachian Tale!

The Word Dancer: An Appalachian Tale is out in the world now! You can order it at your favorite brick and mortar or online retailer.

This romantic suspense takes place in 1960s Appalachia and follows the story of Maribelle, a teacher who leaves her comfortable life in Nashville to teach deaf children in a rural mountain town.

As she teaches the children American Sign Language, she realizes that life in Sassafras Hollow is harder than expected. She doesn’t anticipate the townspeople’s skepticism of her methods, the harsh realties of mountain life, or the deadly fallout from an unrequited love.

Rescue pup inspires Mommy Says children’s book series

Ron and I adopted Shadow on June 30, 2018. Ever since, she has become so much more than a dog to us. She is our baby, companion and best friend. I wouldn’t have written my Isle of Palms Suspense series without her, and now, she has inspired a special children’s book series about our travels together. I love this sweet girl so much. Check out Shadow’s fun picture books — Mommy Says … We’re Going to the Beach and Mommy Says … We’re Going to the Mountains.

I hate it when my #ex shows up randomly, especially since he’s a ghost. His #haunting causes my family to spiral for a whole trilogy. #booktok #books #readingisfunclub #paranormal #read #spooky #mermaid #Lowcountry
