Hello Again,
June is a month filled with love and weddings. I often wondered why is it that so many people get married in June. Of course, I had to look it up. The month is named for the goddess Juno, the protector of women in all aspects of life, especially marriage and child bearing. My personal theory, the weather is spectacular. The cool rainy days of spring are behind us the hot muggy days of summer are ahead so June weather is usually JUST right.
Oh, and I was a June bride, our wedding anniversary was on the 9th. When did you tie the knot?
I found this fun little anecdote when I was doing a bit of research…
Married when the year is new, he’ll be loving, kind and true.
When February birds do mate, you wed not dread your fate.
If you wed when March winds blow, joy and sorrow both you’ll know.
Marry in April when you can, joy for Maiden and for Man.
Marry in the month of May, and you’ll surely rue the day.
Marry when June roses grow, over land and sea you’ll go.
Those who in July do wed, must labor for their daily bread.
Whoever wed in August be, many a change is sure to see.
Marry in September’s shrine, your living will be rich and fine.
If in October you do marry, love will come but riches tarry.
If you wed in bleak November, only joys will come, remember.
When December snows fall fast, marry and true love will last.

Now onto the love of books. So many of the Romance Gems have been writing and releasing new books. Yours truly included. I’ll be releasing two Christmas themed books this fall as well as Blush in August, Vintage in October and Bouquet in January. I hope you’ve been able to pick up Blends or Breathe and start reading about the Price family.
Oh, and I did a thing… my first full length book, Lost and Found is now PermaFree on e-book retailers and ALL my books are now on Google Play. So, it has been a busy June so far with much more to come.
Until next time,
Stay healthy, happy and in love.
Lucinda

ReplyDeleteCongrats! You've accomplished a lot this year. Thanks for the free book!
ReplyDeleteThat poem is kinda scary! Like you, I'm a June bride, so I think we're safe! Congrats on all your releases! I don't know how many of you are so prolific! I can only manage to get a couple books out a year, and I'm retired!!!
ReplyDeleteI'd hope to marry in June but my future groom had guards duty that month. But we married a couple of years later. Congrats, Lucinda, on all those releases.
