BobbieHazelton
Bobbie Hazelton was born and raised in a very small town in the northwestern corner of Arkansas. In later years, she spent time with friends in Louisiana and, there, she was fortunate to experience the cultures of the southern people. After many visits to the French Quarter in New Orleans, Lafayette, Baton Rouge, and Natchez, Mississippi, she became more familiar with their way of life. In this book, she tried to capture the true voice of the south: the way they talk, act, and think; their moods, clipped words, and most of all, just how important family is to them. She found that family was, and still is, the most important thing to the people of the south.
Romance & Family: A Southern Love Story
Author’s fondness of Louisiana becomes the background of this beautiful story of love and fighting for love
Loves that are worth fighting for. That’s what true love and family means to the people of the South. In this absorbing novel by author Bobbie Hazelton, readers will follow the romance and the brewing trouble of these lovers in Coffee, Sweet Tea or Lemonade & Me. Readers will meet three cousins who go to New Orleans to fill a New Year’s resolution, where the youngest cousin will end up falling head over heels in love with a young Lafayette rancher.
It is New Year’s Eve in Natchez, Mississippi. Mattie and her two cousins, Anne and Abby, are trying to decide on their New Year’s resolutions. Their final decision: attend the Mardi Gras in New Orleans, Louisiana. However, while attending one of the zany Mardi Gras parades, they become separated. As prearranged, Mattie goes to one of the more popular pubs to wait for the cousins to show up. There, she meets Marc LaBlanc, a handsome rancher from Lafayette. A short time lapses and the “I Do’s” between Marc and Mattie are said; thus begins this love story: one with happiness, caring and sharing.
Then, along comes trouble. After Lilly Sue, the ex-wife of Mattie’s younger brother and a well-known stripper at Billy Rocket’s Club for Southern Gentlemen, sees Marc at a Fourth of July barbecue, she decides she wants Marc for her own. There’s going to be trouble in paradise; however, Mattie isn’t ready to give Marc up just yet… not without a fight.
This book is available online and can be purchased at online bookstores.

I have two corgis that I would love to tell you about! Their names are Link & Gannon, like from Legend of Zelda. Link is a small boy, feisty, and full of character! Gannon is the sweetest, most gentle dog I’ve ever met who loves cuddles and belly pets!
WAYNE & Mad Max
My office mate is Mad Max: Defender of the Realm, Scourge of Lizards, and Most Manly of Poodles. Sadly, our family dog, Jasmine, died a few years ago – but she was a wonderful animal, always friendly and loving. Other dog lovers were enchanted by her, in part because of her distinctive look and shape. She was a shepherd/ corgi mix, and she had the long body and short legs of a corgi, but the head and tail of a shepherd. Truly a unique dog!
Sage is really my daughter’s cat, but I love her too. She is the most perfect of cats. Sage often tells me when it’s time for me to go to bed so that she can lay on the bed with me. Sometimes, she falls asleep, and we end up sharing the same pillow with her acting as a living head warmer.

TRACY & Banksy Carrie & Frenemy
Attaching the picture. My cat, Banksy, was spray-painted as a kitten. Really sad. He wasn’t doing well, so I fostered him for the shelter. I ended up adopting him myself. And named him Banksy after the graffiti artist! He’s 6. Frenemy is my little cat buddy. She used to live in a cat-colony with 15 other black and white cats. At that time, she hung around our house, trying to steal food from our other cat. When we moved to a new neighborhood, I put her in a carrier and took her with us. She has Stockholm Syndrome.
