Shotgun Wedding
 
A Christmas Novel by Karen Wiesner
 
Trevor and Eden were married right out of high school. She'd believed she was pregnant, but that hadn't been her sole motivation. Wildly in love with Trevor Johnson, she'd worried he was becoming disenchanted with her, his attention consumed by the needy and seductive Delaney Foster who came to Amethyst every year with her family. In the years Eden and Trever have been married, she's never felt quite secure in the belief that he married her by choice, in love.
 
During the Christmas season, plagued by unspoken guilt and doubts, she finds herself again competing with a soon-to-be divorced, distraught, and disgustingly gorgeous Delaney. Eden is obsessively aware she's no longer as young, thin, or sexy as she'd been before she had three sons.
 
To top off her growing stress, Eden has discovered she and Trevor's oldest son and his girlfriend, in their senior year of high school, are sexually active. The last thing they need is another shotgun wedding and the potential that a marriage undertaken for the sake of a baby isn't necessarily one of choice or love.
 
Available in paperback or ebook! Also available in the Adventures in Amethyst Trio of Holiday Romances--three interconnected holiday stories (Halloween, Thanksgiving, and Christmas) in one volume!

Adventures in Amethyst Trio of Holiday Romances by Karen Wiesner
 
Just in time for Christmas--and it's never too late to enjoy Halloween and Thanksgiving stories!
 
Three holiday stories in one volume!
 
Writers Exchange E-Publishing (https://www.facebook.com/Writers.Exchange)
 
(3 in 1 volume) including:
 
Halloween: NEVER A BRIDE, Book 11: Once upon a time, Ben Johnson believed he had forever sewn up with Layla. But fairy tales rarely come true in reality. Long before her nephew was in a hunting accident and she blamed Ben for not preventing it, the two of them had broken up, citing irreconcilable differences. Layla hadn't wanted his family to know the truth. Following the accident, she walked out--for good, he assumed.
 
Charlize Seagrave never fit in anywhere, drawn to danger, darkness, and drugs. For years, she was the guitarist and songwriter for a death-metal band and involved with the frontman who only encouraged her deadly addictions. In order to hide from Freyr, Charlize checked herself rehab. Later, clean--another first in her life--she attended her new friend's wedding and met Ben. Despite their instant connection, he was supposedly in a committed relationship and she had no interest whatsoever in commitment. If only Ben wasn't so unlike every other person she's ever known. If only she didn't feel like he alone understands and gets her.
 
When Charlize returns to Amethyst at Halloween, Ben knows loneliness has nothing to do with his feelings for her. His attraction to her the last time she was in Amethyst wasn't something he was comfortable with, despite that he and Layla had broken up even before his family learned of the fact. But now Layla is implying she's had a change of heart. Ben wonders if this is all getting too complicated...or if the solution is as simple as a kiss.
 
Thanksgiving: UNLUCKY IN LOVE, Book 12: Layla Dupriest's father was killed in a hunting accident when she was a child so, when the man who was once the love of her life, Benji Johnson, encourages her nephew to go hunting and he's hurt, she blames Ben. Months later, she can see she wasn't fair.
 
Adam Schaefer has loved Tally Johnson, Benji's sister, since he was a teenager, but his love of flying and freedom surpassed anything that might clip his wings like a wife, monogamy, marriage, and settling down. The last thing he expected was for her to fall for his best friend--and to have that man's baby.
 
Unlucky in love and unable to count their blessings during the Thanksgiving holiday, Layla and Adam find themselves jilted at the same time. Heartbroken, snowed in, and forced to share the only available cabin in town, they have no choice but to re-evaluate everything they've ever wanted in life...and love.
 
Christmas: SHOTGUN WEDDING, Book 13: Trevor and Eden were married right out of high school. She'd believed she was pregnant, but that hadn't been her sole motivation. Wildly in love with Trevor Johnson, she'd worried he was becoming disenchanted with her, his attention consumed by the needy and seductive Delaney Foster who came to Amethyst every year with her family. In the years Eden and Trever have been married, she's never felt quite secure in the belief that he married her by choice, in love.
 
During the Christmas season, plagued by unspoken guilt and doubts, she finds herself again competing with a soon-to-be divorced, distraught, and disgustingly gorgeous Delaney. Eden is obsessively aware she's no longer as young, thin, or sexy as she'd been before she had three sons.
 
To top off her growing stress, Eden has discovered she and Trevor's oldest son and his girlfriend, in their senior year of high school, are sexually active. The last thing they need is another shotgun wedding and the potential that a marriage undertaken for the sake of a baby isn't necessarily one of choice or love.

Final three offerings in the Adventures in Amethyst Series available now!

The final three offerings in the Adventures in Amethyst Series are available now in paperback and ebook formats!
 
ADVENTURES IN AMETHYST TRIO OF HOLIDAY ROMANCES
 
This trio of stories is what I intend to be the final offering in a long series, where I came to know and love whole families, lifers in my small, made-up town of Amethyst, Wisconsin: the Roses, the Masons, the Maraseks, the Wootens, and the Johnsons, not to mention Scott Romero, his cousin Sheila Mason and her adorable son Dev, Jeb Duncan and the mess of kids he and Sheila have together, Quinn Rutledge and Summer Rosales, Briar Sankey, and Donnie Garner.
              
Now that I've gotten to the point of finishing this trio of interconnected stories that flow into one another, moving in a linear way through the holidays Halloween, Thanksgiving, and Christmas, I'm not sure I want to say goodbye to any of these characters I've lived with for so many years as if they were real-life friends or even family. There are so many other stories I could tell in this rich landscape. Who knows? Maybe another story idea for the series will come to me in the future. Jo and Madd (Joelle and Maddox) Johnson? Calvin and Kenzie Johnson? Cobi Johnson and Ree? Aberle? Apple and Clay's insane parents? Any one of the interesting "ancillary" people and families introduced over the course of the series? Maybe. But right now the series feels complete. I can't wait for fans to read this potentially final offering. I hope everyone who does will fall in love with the town of Amethyst, Wisconsin, and the unforgettable people who live there the way I have over the course of writing the Adventures in Amethyst Series.
 
Amethyst, WI is a small, peaceful town on a pristine lake with an active tourist season in summer. When the air turns chill, the area is transformed into a ghost town with only a handful of lifers who stay. Populated with colorful characters, Amethyst is bursting with mystery, romance, and jealousy. Come and visit a place where anything is possible all-year-round.
 
NEVER A BRIDE, Book 11 (Halloween novel)
 
Once upon a time, Ben Johnson believed he had forever sewn up with Layla. But fairy tales rarely come true in reality. Long before her nephew was in a hunting accident and she blamed Ben for not preventing it, the two of them had broken up, citing irreconcilable differences. Layla hadn't wanted his family to know the truth. Following the accident, she walked out--for good, he assumed.
              
Charlize Seagrave never fit in anywhere, drawn to danger, darkness, and drugs. For years, she was the guitarist and songwriter for a death-metal band and involved with the frontman who only encouraged her deadly addictions. In order to hide from Freyr, Charlize checked herself into rehab. Later, clean--another first in her life--she attended her new friend's wedding and met Ben. Despite their instant connection, he was supposedly in a committed relationship and she had no interest whatsoever in commitment. If only Ben wasn't so unlike every other person she's ever known. If only she didn't feel like he alone understands and gets her.
              
When Charlize returns to Amethyst at Halloween, Ben knows loneliness has nothing to do with his feelings for her. His attraction to her the last time she was in Amethyst wasn't something he was comfortable with, despite that he and Layla had broken up even before his family learned of the fact. But now Layla is implying she's had a change of heart. Ben wonders if this is all getting too complicated…or if the solution is as simple as a kiss.
 
UNLUCKY IN LOVE, Book 12 (Thanksgiving novel)
 
Layla Dupriest's father was killed in a hunting accident when she was a child and, though her family is made up of avid hunters, she can't get over the loss her mother suffered. The once-upon-a-time love of Layla's life, Benji Johnson, encourages her nephew Jack to go hunting and he's hurt in an accident that so easily could have proved fatal. Distraught and reeling, Layla blames Benji and walks out.
 
By the time she comes to grips with reality, months have passed. She's changed, and she can see in hindsight she wasn't fair to Benji. They'd broken up long before the accident yet she'd asked him not to tell his family, who'd become as close as her own. Despite that she can't seem to escape the sense she and Ben aren't meant to be, she's found it nearly impossible to let go of the dreams they'd built for a future together.
              
Adam Schaefer has loved Tally Johnson, Benji's sister, since he was a teenager, but his love of flying and freedom surpassed anything that might clip his wings--like a wife, monogamy, marriage, and settling down. The last thing he expected was for her to fall in love with his best friend--and to have that man's baby. 
              
Unlucky in love and unable to count their blessings during the Thanksgiving holiday, Layla and Adam find themselves jilted at the same time by a person they assumed was their soulmate. Heartbroken, snowed in, and forced to share the only available cabin in town, they have no choice but to re-evaluate everything they've ever wanted in life…and love.
 
SHOTGUN WEDDING, Book 13 (Christmas story)
 
Trevor and Eden were married right out of high school. She'd believed she was pregnant, but that hadn't been her sole motivation. Wildly in love with Trevor Johnson, she'd worried he was becoming disenchanted with her, his attention consumed by the needy and seductive Delaney Foster who came to Amethyst every year with her family. In the years Eden and Trever have been married, she's never felt quite secure in the belief that he married her by choice, in love.
              
During the Christmas season, plagued by unspoken guilt and doubts, she finds herself again competing with a soon-to-be divorced, distraught, and disgustingly gorgeous Delaney. Eden is obsessively aware she's no longer as young, thin, or sexy as she'd been before she had three sons.
              
To top off her growing stress, Eden has discovered she and Trevor's oldest son and his girlfriend, in their senior year of high school, are sexually active. The last thing they need is another shotgun wedding and the potential that a marriage undertaken for the sake of a baby isn't necessarily one of choice or love.

ADVENTURES IN AMETHYST TRIO OF HOLIDAY ROMANCES (3-in-1 collection) including NEVER A BRIDE, Book 11; UNLUCKY IN LOVE, Book 12; and SHOTGUN WEDDING, Book 13
