A holiday romance set in the world of the Purple Heart Ranch! Ariana Carol has the voice of a siren. But after an embarrassing incident on stage, she walked away with stage fright so severe that she barely speaks. So when she’s singing late one night to the crashing waves, she’s shocked to find that a handsome man hears her voice. Now that he’s back in his hometown and out of the service, all Eric Prince craves is silence and solitude on his house boat. After surviving a bomb attack in a combat zone, his PTSD has made him leery of loud noises and large crowds. But the sound of Ari’s voice brings him a peace he never thought he’d find again. Getting the shy woman to talk to him, much less sing for him, becomes this soldier’s new mission in life. When Prince learns that he’s the reason Ari went mute all those years ago, his toughest battle will be in front of him; the battle for Ari’s heart and her song. Ari can’t believe she’s falling for the boy who silenced her because he’s transformed into the man that makes her soul sing. But when she learns he’s hiding a painful secret, will their love be strong enough to heal both old and new wounds? His Grace Under Pressure is a holiday romance set in the world of the Purple Heart Ranch. This love story can be read at any point in the ongoing sweet western romance series. This book was previously published as Sweet Carol from the Indigo Bay Beach Romance series. It has been revised, updated, and transplanted into a midwestern lake town near your favorite rehabilitation ranch for Wounded Warriors.

Shanae Johnson was raised by Saturday Morning cartoons and Afterschool Specials. She still doesn’t understand why there isn’t a life lesson that ties the issues of the day together just before bedtime. While she’s still waiting for the meaning of it all, she writes stories to try and figure it all out. And by the way, the E elongates the A. So it’s pronounced Shan-aaaaaaaa. Perfect for a hero to call out across the moors, or up to a balcony. If you hear him calling her name, please send him her way!
