 "Fascinating information about the animals (yes, sea otters have pockets!) tucked into short, lively poems and bright, bold artwork make this collection perfect for National Poetry Month--or any day of the year. In honor of Poem in Your Pocket Day, a child imagines the poems animals might carry in their pockets, if they had pockets. What would a hummingbird write? A fox? A sea otter? These poems capture the essences of animals furry, feathery and finny, exploring what makes each unique. Ruby-Throated Hummingbird sings with its wings, Red Fox's poem is a fiery tail flashing in the dark, and Sea Otter's poem is its secret pocket. Which poem will capture the heart of the child narrator? A poem about loving animals, of course!"

Colonel Nathaniel Walker has been ravaged by the Civil War nearly as much as his country has. Now he seeks the sanctuary of home, hoping to find solace from the dreams that haunt him most nights. Instead, he finds an orphanage for war orphans has sprung up next door. Now, his guilt has faces – fourteen of them. And the woman who cares for them.

A rogue wave on the Great Lakes brings together two unlikely people who are each searching for more from life.
 

Even after her husband’s suicide, Corinne Woodward remains faithful to him while single-handedly manning the lighthouse on the lake. But the lonely young widow longs to be loved again and decides to join her deceased spouse to prove she is his love for all eternity. Her plan goes awry the night she must rescue the sole survivor of a shipwreck. A war between fidelity and attraction rages inside her, with her heart as the prize.
 

Stephen Thompson is living the perfect life, or so he thinks. He captains a Great Lakes ship, romancing a different girl in every port, but can never quite bring himself to stay the night with any one of them. A rogue wave capsizes his ship, taking his entire crew, and leaving him lost at sea in more ways than one. His saving angel comes in the guise of the widow who keeps him from drowning. Her fidelity to her late husband is touching, and reveals to him what is missing in his life. He’s finally found the one woman who can make him stay the night, every night. All he has to do is battle a ghost for her love.

Diana knew she lied to her best friend when she said she wanted to live it.  

Oh, how desperately she wanted to hide!  Hide from her husband’s betrayals, hide from the blame and guilt heaped on her by her younger daughter’s refusal to accept the divorce, hide from the pity, the questions, the snarky innuendos from her “friends.”  

Most of all, hide from herself and her failures.

Her family accepted her need to “find herself,” and this apartment in the south of France was perfect with its balcony and view of the sea and town. Low enough to be able to watch life happen below her, high enough to not participate in any of it.

Now if only the gentle people of Cassis would let her do that.

When not writing, Patricia spends time with her family

and grandchildren. Her greatest goal is to be the partner in crime granny and give her grandchildren LOTS of silly memories.

She also indulges her other passions – traveling when possible, reading voraciously, knitting and embroidery, practicing reiki, and her latest – attempting watercolor.

She lives in Western New York not far from the Honeymoon Capital of the World, so writing romance is pretty much a given.

She plans to continue writing both contemporary and historical romances and give her readers stories that will touch their hearts.

Because, in any time and in any place, love is all that matters.
