About this ebook
July 4th 2005, Maggie Mae's wedding day was the happiest day of her life, the most painful day of her life, and the day she died three times.
Now, years later, Maggie is a recluse who shuns the world. When her life is turned upside down, she is thrown into the path of the only man who can save her. Elk Bend Chief of Police Michael Rogers helps her pick up the pieces of her shattered existence. There is something haunting about the beautiful, lonely Maggie that draws Michael like no other woman.
But someone—or something—lurks in the shadows. There is another who wants Maggie for his own. Someone willing to destroy her rather than see her in the arms of anyone else.
****A steamy contemporary romance with a ghostly paranormal twist****
The depths of love as well as sorrow are explored in the story of Maggie Mae as you experience the horror of her husband’s death, the joy and laughter of friendships, and, most of all, the wonder when love transcends death.
"Sandy Wolters is a genius at finding the perfect blend of drama and comedy in her books. This book will have you crying, laughing and when it's over, I promise you will have a smile on your face." - Abouchard

I’ve been an avid reader for years. To my husband’s dismay, I have bookshelves full of books, rooms full of books, boxes full of books. My cars have books in them. I just can’t seem to get rid of them after I read them. You just never know when you will want to read it again, right?About two years ago, my husband gave me the dream gift, a Kindle. It was love at first sight and my first foray into the world of ebooks. To say the least, I am a technologically challenged person but when a reader, such as I, is told that you can have the book you want to read in seconds, I’m going to do whatever it takes to learn how to use it as quickly as possible.While I still have books everywhere, I no longer take ten or twelve books with me when I go on vacation. The only thing I need is my Kindle. It never leaves my purse.My genre of choice is romance with a paranormal twist. My authors of choice are Diana Palmer, Iris Johansen, Catherine Coulter, Jill Gregory and of course, the queen, Nora Roberts. I am also very partial to Michael Connelly, who is not a romance author but damn that man can write!In my life prior to becoming an author, I was Legal Assistant/Office Manager for a wonderful local estate planning attorney (no criminals that I know of). Prior to that, I also worked my way up the ladder in a large corporation, from payroll clerk to supervising nine employees in operational accounting.When my children, Shandelle and Pilar, were small, I took a few years off to be a full-time mom and help my husband with his accounting work for his auto repair shop.After, Michael, my husband, sold his business, he changed professions and started working for a national construction company.Michael and I raised two beautiful, strong women so that’s who I write about. The women in my books are strong individuals that have moments of weakness and frailty to work through.

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Please be aware that this review is my opinion. This is not a paid review. This digital book was a gift and does not reflect or influence my review of the book. To form your own opinions please support the author and acquire your own legal copy of the book.
I will admit that the title of this book did not grab my attention. However, that did not stop me from reading and getting mad when I was reading because I had to stop when I was at work. I read a lot at work during either my lunch break or when I have some downtime and bored. I know it is not ethically correct to read while I am suppose to be working but sometimes my day is so easy and boring I will fall asleep just sitting in the chair. I just need something to keep my mind occupied.
This book starts out so sad it almost makes the read want to cry and stop reading but you cannot do that because it has grabbed your attention and will not let go. The first paragraph or two is not sad. It is a happy joyous event, but then it turns out to be very sad.
No I will try and not give any details about this book for that information you will have to read the book sorry I just know that whatever I end up typing it will be a spoiler and I am trying to keep from writing spoilers in my reviews.
I love the strong character Maggie in this book. She has gone through everything that a person should not have to go through and still has come out a stronger person because of everything.
Maggie then loses more of the stuff from her past. It is like how can this keep happening to her and she not just give up. All of us know that when bad things keep happening in our life we finally get to a point that we just give up we refuse to go on any more. That is the best part about reading a book, the author will make the character strong and allows the reader to remember that no matter what is happening to not give up, keep going, stay strong, and just let go of everything. Cry, weep, scream, yell, get angry and throw stuff but never, ever give up.
After Maggie has lost everything that, she thought was her life she found out that there is more to life than the possessions she had. Maggie learns to love again, and finds that she enjoys having that love. - Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Rating: 4 ½ stars July 4, 2010Maggie Mae Dixon is seen on the beach ready to marry the man she loves. James David Carson is the man who filled the empty spot in her life. But it’s all a dream. Her husband died five years ago.She’s come to visit with Amanda and says hello to her dad, Rafferty. Rafferty was Jimmy’s best friend and business partner. He also has a secret. He wants to tell Maggie but the time has never been right. Sandy gives us a glimpse of what Raff and Maggie had in the past. She will have you laughing when she tells you the story of Maggie on the slopes and how Raff is there to save the day.We see Michael Rogers telling his officer, Michelle Dooley, about an incident at the local middle school. It will have you going eww. Sandy’s writing makes the scene very believable and laughable at the same time. Michael then gets an interesting call on his cell phone.We find that it’s Maggie’s brother, Marc, on the other end and he’s in a panic. You would think the world was coming to an end or World War III was just around the corner. Meanwhile, Maggie is recalling an incident between her and Raff’s mother. Can we say woman from hell?Michael then gets to meet Maggie and she surprises him. As you read the scene, she will surprise you as well. There seems to be a connection that neither of them can explain. We see her start as a caterpillar and then turn into a butterfly.Maggie then has to go to her friend Carley’s house. Carley has been trying to set her up for a while now. Maggie gets very creative in getting rid of her blind dates. It’s just one more scene where Sandy has you laughing.Maggie’s first sexual experience, since her husband passed away, is very hot. And at the end of the scene it’s one more time that Sandy has you laughing. Then she turns around and turns up the heat. But always in the back of your mind you wonder what became of Raff. And then Michael and Raff meet – can we say roosters? I had never heard of Sandy before. Then I was asked to do a review of this book. I was very happy that I was asked. She has a way of spinning a story that has you falling in love with the main characters. Her female character is a woman who takes no prisoners and laughing at her at the same time. If you haven’t read “Maggie Mae” before you need to read it or at the very least have it on your TBR list.
