Reunion at Mossy Creek
by Carolyn McSparren, Sharon Sala, Sandra Chastain, Deborah Smith, Virginia Ellis

Welcome back to Mossy Creek! The warm-hearted but stubborn residents of the small town whose motto is "Ain't Going No Where—And Don't want To" are once again sorting out the joys, sorrows, and everyday mysteries of life.

This time around they've got the added drama of the big town reunion commemorating the twenty-year-old mystery of the late, great Mossy Creek High School, which burned to the ground amid quirky rumors and dark secrets. Are the villains who caused the fire at the grand old school finally ready to come forward?

In the meantime, sassy 100-year-old Creekite Eula Mae Whit is convinced Willard Scott has put a death curse on her, and Mossy Creek Police Chief Amos Royden is still fighting his reputation as the town's most eligible bachelor. Then there's the new bad girl in town, Jasmine, and more adventures from the old bad girl in town, Mayor Ida Hamilton. And last but not least, Bob the flying Chihuahua finds himself stalked by an amorous lady poodle.

All this and more—including the introduction of Mossy Creek's new recipe section, courtesy of Creekite Chef Bubba Rice—is waiting for readers in the second novel of the Mossy Creek series.



Carolyn McSparren's Bio

Carolyn McSparren's first Harlequin Superromance, The Only Child, published in January 1997, was a 1996 finalist in the Romance Writers of America Gold Heart Awards, a finalist in Romantic Times magazine's Best First Novel and Best Superromance categories, and a RITA finalist for Best First Book as well.

She has won two Maggie Awards from the Georgia Romance Writers, and has been a Golden Heart finalist twice. She was 1997 president of the River City Romance Writers, the Memphis chapter of Romance Writers of America, and is the found and first president of Malice in Memphis, the Memphis Chapter of Sisters in Crime, the national organization for mystery writers.

Her fourth Superromance, Fathers & Sons, was a March 1999 release, and her fifth, Mr. Miracle, a stand- alone follow-up to If Wishes Were Horses, is a September 1999 release.

Carolyn has lived in Germany, France, Italy and "too many cities in the U.S. to count." She now lives in the country outside of Memphis, Tennessee in an old house with two dogs, two cats, two horses and one husband -- "not necessarily in order of importance." At the moment, Carolyn is working on her next Superromance, tentatively titled Bless The Beasts And The Children, as well as a historical murder mystery set during the yellow fever epidemic of 1878.
