One woman will turn the tide of battle by risking everything for the man she loves. Taken from her village as a child, Ealasaid has lived under the iron rule of a Viking king for far too long. The only good to come out of her life is her son. As long as the king lives, their freedom and hope for the future seems dismal.

I’d like to thank Jessica for hosting me. Not only are we pub sisters at Liquid Silver Books, I’m a huge fan. One of the reasons I admire Jessica’s work is her ability to create worlds. In Tyburn , she swept us away to historic London. The reader feels and smells and tastes everything the characters do. World building is just as important in a contemporary romance, although it may not feel the same. After all, in the cases of contemporaries, the “world” or setting is one we recognize. It is generally the world in which we live, although it may feature more glamorous aspects. I am always conscious of making my readers feel they’ve entered a new world in my books, even if it is similar to one they’ve encountered. In my latest romance, The Stand-In , the world is modern-day Toronto, Canada … my home town. The action takes place at banquet halls, churches, pubs, strip joints and downtown office towers. These are places we know. The characters are ones you might encounter on the stree

Light Beyond the Darkness by Tami Lund Genre: Paranormal Release Date: April 27, 2015 Hosted by: Book Enthusiast Promotions  @BookEnthuPromo #Synopsis: In the third installment of the Lightbearer series, lightbearer Carley Santiago and shifter Reid Hennigan are running from their pasts.

Hi everybody, If the setting of the Southwark Saga feels a little unfamiliar to you (or if you just want more of it!), you can now experience it for yourself. Well, almost ! Six students from De Montfort University have made this incredible three minute animation of London before the Great Fire in 1666. The Southwark Saga begins in 1671, but most of London and Southwark would have still looked like this. Check it out to fly through the streets past churches, pubs, and even gallows, and notice the beautiful architecture that has long since been replaced. One of those tall houses with the projecting top floor could be Mark's! This is too awesome not to share. Enjoy!

Today is the feast day of Saint David, the patron Saint of Wales. It is a public holiday in Wales not unlike Saint Patrick's Day in Ireland, and is celebrated with parades, festivals, and other cultural events. It is a day to celebrate Wales and Welsh culture around the world, so I thought I would share some of what I love about Wales with you today. I was lucky enough to go to Swansea University for both of my degrees and I lived in Wales for seven years. There are so many things I love about Wales that it would be difficult to summarize in a single blog post, so I'm going to focus on one of my favorite things: the castles!  As I'm a historical romance author with a degree in Medieval History, it might not surprise you to hear that I love castles. If you like castles, too, you should know that Wales has more castles per square mile than any other country on earth, and they're all beautiful with dramatic locations and fascinating history. I got to visit many castles
