It seems this author has a new collection! I wasn't actually planning it at first,
but like a lot of ideas, it grew.It started with December Promise in 2011. That led to September Morning and Hot August Comes in 2015, July Heat in 2021, Once in October in 2024, and The First of February in 2025. That looks like a By The Month collection to me!
Stories in this collection can be stand alone stories or part of another collection as indicated. Will I ever get all twelve months into a title? I don't know. I won't promise. I'll just have to see where it goes!
