"Castle Mountain"
by Kathy Matthews
Still, it was kind of sad the night of the primary, when Rainey kept falling asleep as the results trickled in. This photo was plastered all over the news and was in the next morning's paper.
Clyde Rainey's opponent, Rachel Madlow, was ecstatic over the way things turned out ... except for the fact that she lost the election by 1000 votes. Furious, she vows to destroy "sleepyhead's" life. How low will she go? Read this fun book about small town politics, and get caught up with the interesting characters that live there. (148)
Thanks, Lynn from Present Letters for this photo! I'd love to hear the real story behind it.

Tough Choices
by Kathy Matthews
Wee Willy Laser was the new small-dog model for Companion Wear, and he loved his new job. It offered on-site photo shoots in locations he had never before dreamed existed. From summer lakes modeling life jackets in Georgia; to snowshoeing wearing special footwear in Bend, Oregon, this was the life.
His mama, Cara Laser, was grateful for Willy's job too. It paid well, and gave her opportunities for some extra-curricular fun. Cara was currently in love with Companion Wear President, Jason Fry.
The only issue was that Jason was extremely jealous of Willy. Cara needed to choose. Would she give up her dog-child and lose the income or give into the love of her life? Jason was insisting that Wee Willy be gone. He was offering her marriage and baby, but what if he became jealous of their child also?
When Willy turns up missing, Cara is devastated.
Help! (149)

Complications galore, Kathy, from narcolepsy to pet jealousy in these two blurbs. If I had to choose between buying one book or the other, I'd have to buy the first one, because the thought of dognapping is just too stressful.
Good work!

Your political angle is a good one and very timely! I believe you have a good reader snatching book here.
Loved your blurbs, especially the one about the sleepy politician. We probably need more of them, They do less damage asleep. You have such a fertile mind.
Adored the video and laughed at the rabbit truffles. Sadly, those are Mighty's favorites.
Ha Kathy, that was great - "sleepyhead" politician. Totally unique angle.
In the first blurb, you had me hooked with the the narcoleptic politician. All I could think about was the movie "Rat Race" and the narcoleptic played by Rowan Atkinson. So funny. Love this concept.
Your blurb with McGee is terrific, too. I'm hoping that Jason turns out to be a good guy who ends up loving the pooch. I always prefer a happy ending. :)
Fun is right. I loved your take on both of them!
