The Off Season: First Kiss at Christmas by Lee Tobin McClain

3 hours ago

Kayla, the heroine of First Kiss at Christmas, goes to a grown-up community party and is promptly conscripted--by her rival--to spend the evening babysitting the little ones rather than dancing with the hero. I wanted to yell at her for saying okay! Fortunately, she has a good friend who takes her place in the childcare room and another who encourages her to hit the dance floor. The evening ends... romantically. ❤ Out in six days! Preorder to make sure it arrives on your physical or virtual doorstep next Tuesday. ... See MoreSee Less

Hi Lee!

Thank you!

I love that you included scoliosis since I have it and had surgery for it in 1972.

Love that you included scoliosis. And the mean girl drama

Cant wait to get it. I grab a bunch of christmas books to read. I'm a fan if holiday books year round.

Cinnamon roll hero is popular, too. Love opposites attract trope.

Oh my goodness you are an amazing author found you last year and am working my way through them.

I like ordering directly from Harlequin.

Do any of your titles make it to the final stage?

I love your books! Will be finishing this one and reviewing shortly! (It was forwarded = late start)😁

Hi - I love Chesapeake Bay romances!

Love Christmas books!

I need to go book shopping!

I can’t wait to get to read this book! I know a guy……

I married one LOL

Yay for Christmas 💕🎄☃️❄️

Love your books

I live Christmas books !!

Love reading Christmas books

Love getting to know authors!

Love the setting...

Hi Lee, love the cover

Hey yes want the book

Sounds great!

I absolutely love all your books because you write all clean stories, and I don't have to worry about inappropriate language and scenes. I am over 80 years old, and like to think that I grew up in a kinder, gentler world, and I avoid all books that use language and explicit love scenes that I find totally unnecessary and frankly, embarrassing. I was married and have two living adult children, so I know what marriages involve - I just don't want to read those physical details.

How long do you stay in the area the setting takes place in order to learn the culture and to be able to describe so vividly?

Do you have a hard time getting into writing a Christmas book, in a different season?

What are the first 4 books in the series. I love your books but have not had a lot a luck finding them here in VT.

I’m so sorry but have a doctors appointment, so won’t be available. Have a good time everyone.

How do you pick a cover for a new book?

Do you pick the covers or does the publisher?

Do you always visit an area to set the scene for the story?

How do you keep coming up with new stories!? :)

I read one of those “three easy ways to decorate for autumn” articles and as suggested, put some gourds in a bowl. They just look silly! What am I doing wrong? (In case you can’t tell, crafts and home decor are not my strengths 😂). ... See MoreSee Less

I very seldom had any gourds at home, but always had gourds in a basket and Indian corn hanging in my classroom. I even used green, yellow, and green/ yellow leaves to teach Venn diagrams.

Girl, never decorate for anything but Christmas. And just one room and nothing outdoors for that!

I’m no help. I have the same broken crafty gene🤣. I feel like it’s Zelma saying something like: you don’t decorate with them, you eat them!!

Stand the long neck gourds up; arrange the longer ones to stand up too. Put the small round gourd in the middle

My husband started that way.... then he bought 3 ears of that Indian Corn, and that spruced it up a bit. He also transferred them to a basket we had laying around vs a bowl....

Maybe add a small branch, or leaves (just a few,) or a pine cone. They look cool!

You need different sizes...

These are not my forte either 😂🤣

well... the bowls aren't appropriately decorated and the gourds have to be arranged, not thrown in haphazard...

I like the one on the right

Lol...you have to decide a area to follow, Tuscany, new England, canada, midwest farm, and follow that feeling, its colors, textures, smells, native plant life- foods, ...you are from new England think shore blues greens dirty whites, lobster reds, deep barn reds, rich browns, eggplants, mustards, burnt orange, deep sands, bark striped whites and deep chocolates, blacks, ...decide to be crisp or relaxed. Think of your decor as setting a story. You do that everyday. Set your story, show off your flavor of your environment, trees, flowers, woods, stones, try again. That book was probably for fancy apartment houses in a huge city ...a cultural smaller town has flavor. Go out ant shop in your town, a few linens here, candles- light or color light there, find textures woods, stones, metals, shapes, unusual objects with either rounded edges or sharp corners. Focus on big useful things that have meaning to you. And that you find and that you might just change. Like wrapping twigs, or painting stones, or dipping candles. Be you. Find you. Your home us from your area it should be decorated by its environment your city, state, its flavor. Bring that out.

Here’s mine
