 But first of all, let me tell you about one of my favourite romance novels:

 Through the Fire by the mega talented Beth Trissel!


Blurb:
Will love inflame these two natural born enemies in fiery destruction?
At the height of the French and Indian War, a young English widow ventures into the colonial frontier in search of a fresh start. She never expects to find it in the arms of the half-Shawnee, half-French warrior who makes her his prisoner in the raging battle to possess a continent--or to be aided by a mysterious white wolf and a holy man.
~~~

 I loved the atmosphere the author creates in this novel. The mix of Frontier settlers and Natives always makes for an intriguing read, especially with a paranormal element added, and Beth Trissel knows how to create gripping, moving plots.

The beautiful description of the dramatic landscape makes you feel like you're there. You can sense the danger lurking. And the author's attention to historical detail is brilliant.

Shoka is the half-Shawnee warrior hero, and I was in love. A deep, fascinating man with an edge. Not surprising, really, that Rebecca fell for him - in the end. As dark forces gather around them, they have to face their challenges together. Will they find their happy end? Find out for yourself!
~~~

Right, so check out this fabulous read and let me know what you think! Don't forget...a PDF copy of Highland Arm is up for grabs for one lucky commenter here ;-)

Welcome N. Gemini Sasson, historical fiction author!

Today, I welcome historical fiction author N. Gemini Sasson , whose latest release, The King Must Die , the sequel to Isabeau , is out now. As part of the Goddessfish blog tour, she is also giving away a $25 Amazon gift voucher to one random commenter on the tour! But first, to find out more about her, I've asked her some questions. I hope you'll enjoy the excerpt below, too. Here goes... Welcome to my blog. What inspired you to write about this particular period? Jean Plaidy’s books, which I devoured during my teenage years, introduced me to the Plantagenet kings of England. She and other writers like Sir Walter Scott and Alexandre Dumas were definitely early influences, but the story that inspired me to explore the 14 th century and eventually write about it was the film Braveheart. I know, I know, there’s a lot of fiction to it, but it was a very dramatic and moving story. After seeing it, I knew I wanted to write something epic like that. I started out writing a

Welcome romance author D'Ann Lindun

Image
Today, I'm hosting fellow romance author, D'Ann Lindun . If you - like me - love cowboys, you're in for a treat! ;-) Falling in love with romance novels the summer before sixth grade, D’Ann Lindun never thought about writing one until many years later when she took a how-to class at her local college. She was hooked! She began writing and never looked back. Romance appeals to her because there's just something so satisfying about writing a book guaranteed to have a happy ending. D’Ann’s particular favorites usually feature cowboys and the women who love them. This is probably because she draws inspiration from the area where she lives, Western Colorado, her husband of twenty-nine years and their daughter. Composites of their small farm, herd of horses, five Australian shepherds, a Queensland heeler, eight ducks and cats of every shape and color often show up in her stories!  So, to discover more about D'Ann, I've asked her a few questions. 1.  Wha
