Ever since I participated in the box set, Much Ado About Love, I got the itch to join another collaborative effort. So, Angela Breidenbach, Pamela Meyers, and I joined with Jessica Ferguson, our idea lady, and created The Bucket List Dare.

I got an idea for my novella almost as soon as Jess told me about her concept. This was the easiest thing I’ve ever written, and the most fun. I can’t wait to share it with you!

Here’s the back cover copy:

Four best friends—Texas A&M grads—challenge each other to revisit the bucket list they made in college and tackle one daring item before they turn thirty. Living in different parts of the country and with birthdays on the horizon, the Aggie girls choose their adventure and work toward making it happen . . . with wonderful, unexpected results.

Arabel, recently unemployed and with a new genealogical certification to her name, takes off for Scotland to discover the answer to a mysterious hole in her ancestral tree.

Annie, a wedding photographer whose reputation is her pride and her job is her life, crashes the most extravagant wedding in the country.

Kat, an army veteran and amputee, has always dreamed of climbing the most challenging mountain she could find. Now that her life and body have been drastically altered—does she dare?

Jojo is a country veterinarian who has never jumped out of anything higher than a hayloft, much less an airplane. How did that get on her bucket list?

The young professionals, facing unknown dangers and risks, call on their strong faith and Aggie spirit, and walk away with love.

What did I tell ya? Fun, right? Read it, love it, write a review for us, okay?

Wednesday, I’ll give you the opening scene to my novella in the collection: Skydiving to Love.
