TWELVE MEN. TWELVE BRIDES. TWELVE DAYS TO SAVE A TOWN!
What has been almost a year in the making finally
came to fruition this past week. Starting on December 1, the first of twelve
books by twelve talented authors in an unprecedented historical series was
released. The Twelve Days of Christmas Mail- Order Brides series was the
brainchild of historical author; Caroline Lee and it has been a journey that
has been one of the most productive and inspirational in my writing career.
My book is THE PIPER; the Eleventh Day. And it tells
the story of one of my favorite tropes—second chances.
Mrs. Genevieve Walters widowed at a young age by the
War between the States, had been in an arranged marriage to a man whose
mistress was the battlefield. Passion had not been part of their union.
Nonetheless, Genevieve remained faithful, writing each day to her husband.
Little did she know that the letters she wrote had been read aloud to her
husband by a young soldier serving as his captain’s aid. Nor did she realize
the impact her letters would have on the life of that young soldier…not until
the unthinkable happens and, keeping true to the promise made to his captain he
must deliver the news personally to his captain’s wife and return both the
letters and a watch she’d given her husband on their wedding day.
But what if the then, young soldier fell in love with the
woman, even before meeting her? What happens if the attraction between them would turn out to be so strong that they'd succumb to a passionate, but forbidden kiss? Only to part ways out of guilt.
It
will be a dozen years before they face each other again—but their circumstances,
their lives are now vastly different!

Genevieve has since moved to Denver where she
becomes involved in the Benevolent Order of Lost Lambs, a church affiliated group
started to help women in need, placing them through careful correspondence as
mail-order brides in the new frontier!
Little does she know that he matchmaking journey
will challenge her to examine her own happiness or that what fate has in store
in the crystal blue eyes of a stranger may give her a second chance at the passion
she once felt in the arms of a young soldier by the name of Christian Ezekiel Kinnison!
It is no coincidence that I've brought to my story a relative of the Kinnison Legacy stories in End of the Line, Montana! It's long been a dream of mine, to utilize the rough and tumble stories of the little historical Montana mining town and give further roots to the folks that live there!
To celebrate the union of history to the present, I am offering a FREE gift of my book featuring a young contemporary Kinnison Holiday story--
***ALL I WANT FOR CHRISTMAS from 12/11-12/15/2017***
