Happy almost Valentine’s Day!

Even though I’m a romance writer, my hubby is the romantic one in our marriage. He tends to send me sweet texts throughout the day and often comes home with a special treat for me.

The other day he sent this mug to me:

See? Sweet 🙂 I’m lucky to have him in my life.

Do you or your spouse do anything special to mark the occasion?

A few years ago, I wrote a fun rom-com for Valentine’s and named my hero, you guessed it, Valentine. I have his story on sale for the holiday- enjoy.

Valentine: A Hearts and Kisses Romance by Jacquie Biggar

Take two humans who pretend they can’t stand each other and one matchmaking canine; the fun is nonstop!

Val Hodgins is on the road to success. His architecture firm handles some of the biggest contracts along the western seaboard. He doesn’t have time to babysit his aunt’s aging house or her pain-in-the-butt dog, but he drops everything to go to her aid when she falls ill with pneumonia.

Sierra Johnson’s dreams of owning a catering company go up in smoke thanks to a bad choice in boyfriends. Now, she’s stuck working for a tyrannical boss, caretaking an aging townhouse, and being tormented by the owner’s aggravating, caustic, way-too-attractive nephew.

Will these two get over their prejudices in time to realize love comes without a price tag?

Excerpt from Valentine: A Hearts & Kisses Romance

Val stepped closer to the crazy woman guarding her virtue with a kitchen utensil. He’d been enjoying the view for the past five minutes as she swayed to the music, her back to him while she worked at his sister’s kitchen sink. Even though she wore the required hair net, he could see she was a fiery redhead, her body slim and compact beneath the wraparound apron. He should have announced himself sooner, but he hadn’t expected to freak her out so badly. Normally, Sam’s kitchen was a hub of activity; he was surprised to find it empty except for the pint-sized warrior.

“You can put down the weapon.” He hid his amusement behind a placating smile. “I’m harmless, though my sister might be tempted to disagree. Is Sam here?”

When the woman stared at him like he was the creature from the black lagoon, Val waved a hand in front of her eyes and grinned at the resultant snap of temper. He was right, she was a feisty one. “Sorry, I’m in a bit of a hurry. Is there a chance I could get you to answer me any time soon?”

She glared at him, threw the rubber spatula unto the counter, and swept the net from her hair, allowing the coiled layers to flow down her back. “You have a bad habit of sneaking up on people,” she snapped, reddened fingers moving to untie her apron.

What was she…?

Oh.

He snapped his fingers and pointed at her. “You. The klutz that destroyed my dinner the other night. What are you doing here? Don’t tell me my sister was foolish enough to hire someone who can’t even hold onto a pot without it becoming a catastrophe.”

Her eyes narrowed and she stared past him to the big block of knives sitting on the stainless-steel countertop. Val hurried to block her view. “Uh, uh, uh, temper, temper. You don’t really want to stab me, just think of the mess.” He wasn’t reassured by the fiendish delight that filled her expression.

Enemies-to-lovers is one of my favorite romance tropes and these two have enough sparks to light up a city. I love when you can laugh as you fall in love with a character.

Take care of each other and cherish the time you have ❤

  3. That is one special mug. He’s a keeper for sure!! Hubby always gives me a nice card, flowers or chocolates. May the romance continue for both of us with romantic guys. I loved Valentine, such a fun read. 💖💖

  5. What a wonderful and thoughtful gift, Jacquie. I love it. My hubby brought me flowers yesterday and explained that they were for Valentine’s Day. Any day is perfect for me. ❤️

  6. Jacqui, your husband is a sweetheart! What a wonderful gift ❤️

    We will celebrate by dining out, although the weather has us snowed in today, and tomorrow it’s supposed to be windy, which means lots of drifting. Hopefully, we’ll be able to follow through with our plans. If not, I have champagne on hand, LOL.

    Enemies to lovers is also one of my favorite romance tropes. What a perfect spotlight for the holiday!

  9. What a great idea for Valentine’s Day! And how sweet that your husband is the romantic (though I think, in that case, the description applies to both of you). I have two of your romance paperbacks to read first. Happy Valentine’s Day, my friend.

  10. Hi Jacquie, a lovely mug, what a kind gesture. My husband doesn’t like Valentine’s day so we don’t do anything to mark the occasion. Your book sounds lovely. I enjoyed your Christmas short story a while back, you do make special occasions even more special.
