Book Description
I have a husband, we have two children and we own our house. I am in good health and so are they, our lives are good; we have everything we need. Sometimes I look at them and wait, in vain, to be moved, as a mother should when watching her own family. Why do I no longer feel anything? Julia is thirty-six years old. At first sight she has it all, but actually she feels miserable. Trapped in the monotony of daily family life and fed up with her passionless marriage, Julia wants out. Escape. For once not to be a good mother, a good wife, a good daughter. For the first time in her life she does something completely irresponsible: she leaves her family behind and heads off into the sun. When Julia finally meets someone who makes her realize what she's been missing all her life, she is forced to reconcile with her past and confront the crucial question: does she dare to go home?

Book Description
Three things happened simultaneously. The lioness charged, Alistair fled across the parched savannah and his wife screamed for him to run faster. Stuffed deep inside his tattered rucksack was a guidebook containing advice on what to do in wildlife emergencies, which he planned to read if he survived the next thirty seconds. Future plans to climb Kilimanjaro, teach English in the Amazon and live in Australia were temporarily forgotten as he turned to face the pouncing lioness, thinking back to the words of advice from his mother-in-law. “Don’t do anything silly, and look after Francine.” From deep underground in a remote Bolivian mine to the scorched Australian outback, Round the Bend is an adventure travel story. It explores the turbulence of redundancy, the excitement of travel, the anguish of leaving home and the challenges of starting a new life in Australia.

Book Description
Mary Beth is the kind of woman who wishes she had a five-second delay on her mouth. The swath of verbal destruction she leaves is why she goes west to start over. But any resolve to hold her tongue is lost immediately when she meets Jacob, a Lakota cowboy who says next to nothing – especially about the black leather mask that covers half his face. Jacob’s silence is his armor in a white man’s world, but even that isn’t enough to protect him – or the mute girl he guards – from forces he can’t control. Fascinated by the masked cowboy and drawn to defend the girl, Mary Beth finds herself in the middle of a decades-old power struggle that only she could talk her way out of. Note: This book was previously published as Masked Cowboy in 2013 “4 1/2 stars TOP PICK! Ms. Anderson writes with an entertaining and intelligent style… I thoroughly enjoyed this smart, complex and fascinating story.”–Night Owl Reviews “4 stars–The second Men of the White Sandy series combines a sizzling romance with a genuinely intriguing tale of a small town’s secrets, histories and sins. Her scarred hero’s story is absorbing, but Anderson wisely examines her heroine’s past with similar care, making this a story of two fully realized characters who challenge and fulfill each other. The mystery adds a spark to the plot, driving the action and ratcheting up the tension to create a novel that fans and new readers alike will enjoy.”–RT Book Reviews “4 1/2 stars TOP PICK: This is a sexy, slightly angsty tale between an emotionally and physically scarred man and a ball buster heroine. It made me laugh, made me swoon and made me mad; any book that elicits all those emotions has got to be a reread.”–Scorching Reviews “4 stars/Grade B. I recently read my first Sarah Anderson book (from a different series) and really liked her voice. When I found out this hero was scarred and a bit tortured, I had to try it. I’m happy to say, I enjoyed this one.”–SmexyBooks “4 1/2 stars. What can I say about Jacob Plenty Holes? He is just fascinating…The ending was extremely dramatic and the aftermath really sweet. It got me all emotional.”–A Pleasant Journey “4.5 Stars! The story catches you from the start as Ms. Anderson weaves a tale of mystery and Indian lore that surrounds the reservation. I am excited to see where this story is going; I love the White Sandy area and those that live there.”–Ramblings From a Chaotic Mind “4 Stars! This is a couple who don’t have an easy path to love but it is a love you know will last as it is built on mutual respect and need plus a good dose of friendship… I really enjoyed it. I’m ready for more in the series especially… Nobody!!!”–Book-a-Holic Anon “4 Stars! Masked Cowboy is a perfect addition to the series. I love Sarah M. Anderson’s style and the unique characters she creates.”–Swept Away by Romance “4 Stars! MASKED COWBOY is one exceptional book! I was so impressed with Sarah M. Anderson’s writing talent. How she crafted such a deeply emotional, high impact story is very impressive. Jacob and Mary Beth are characters you quickly fall in love with, the secondary characters of Kip and Robin make this book outstanding reading experience.”–Mystic Reviews “4 Stars! Once again, Sarah M. Anderson delivers a lovely contemporary, one that is both sweet and sexy, fun and a little bit mysterious. With Masked Cowboy she gives a twist on the usual “cowboy” story, and I thoroughly enjoyed it!”–The Book Queen “MASKED COWBOY is one exceptional book! I was so impressed with Sarah M. Anderson’s writing talent. How she crafted such a deeply emotional, high impact story is very impressive. Jacob and Mary Beth are characters you quickly fall in love with, the secondary characters of Kip and Robin make this book an outstanding reading experience.”–Romance Junkies

Book Description
“This volume is a broad mixture of subjects, in lyrical, thoughtful and humorous moods. From a feeling, [ not from the news ] like a surf wave, powerful or gentle, I flow through the work If it’s a strong feeling, writing is fast. Most times it’s slow, laborious editing. I sometimes make notes. I don’t appreciate modern poetry. This is my own work. I copy no one. I love writing! Several poems are short stories. They contain a variety of windows into the imagination and fantasy. The thoughtful ones may arouse talking points.”
