Springtime brings thoughts of love to people all over the
world, and Creekites are no exception. Although love to
Creekites isn t necessarily romantic. Take, for example,
how they feel about their pets. Dogs, cats, birds, and
fish take center stage as we once again see how the
Southern half lives. Your favorites are back and in just
as much trouble as ever. Amos and Ida are still circling
each other s wagons. Sandy Crane has a little Faith. Jayne
Reynolds emerges from widowhood to take a long lingering
look at Mossy Creek s Bubba Rice. Ed Bailey and his
beloved dog Possum, Lil Ida Hamilton, Peggy Caldwell and
others will make you laugh and cry at human and animal
antics. Cat heists. Fish ponds. Bird nappings. Don t miss
the fun with Critters of Mossy Creek! Welcome To Mossy
Creek!The funny, heart-warming Georgia mountain town whose
slogan is Ain t goin nowhere, and don t want to. A few
years ago, BelleBooks partners Debra Dixon, Deborah Smith,
Sandra Chastain, Virginia Ellis, Donna Ball and Martha
Crockett veteran authors with more than 100 romance and
women s fiction books to their credit at major publishers
decided to create a collective novel about a whimsical
Appalachian town. Each author picked several characters to
shepherd through the stories, and voila! A collaborative
book was born. The series launched with MOSSY CREEK,
followed by REUNION IN MOSSY CREEK, SUMMER IN MOSSY CREEK,
BLESSINGS OF MESSY CREEK, A DAY IN MOSSY CREEK, AT HOME IN
MOSSY CREEK, and now, in September 2009, CRITTERS OF MOSSY
CREEK. Each book features the regulars plus a sterling
group of outside authors. Mossy Creek contributors include
bestselling novelists Sabrina Jeffries, Anne Bishop,
Sharon Sala, Patti Callahan Henry and many more. The
series has garnered glowing reviews, book club, large
print and mass market sales, and a devoted fan base who
eagerly await the next book. In November 2009 veteran
Mossy Creek author Carolyn McSparren begins a spin-off
Mossy Creek mystery series: THE MERRY ABBOT CARRIAGE
DRIVING SERIES, with Book One: CART BEFORE THE CORPSE.
