Indian Territory 1892
Newspaper editor Star McNamara would like nothing better than to see all non-Indian "intruders" ejected from the territory.
Lawman Jason Hillhouse is every bit as independent and proud of his heritage as Star, but he believes women belong at home and that the future of the Choctaw Nation lies in obtaining United States citizenship. Although at odds since childhood, Star can't deny the sizzling attraction that pulls them together, but will Jason take her heart or break it?
A life long resident of Pittsburgh, PA, I've been a fan of romantic/historical/paranormal/horror/ dark fantasy books, movies and television ever since I can remember. My first "professional" (paid for) piece of writing was a vampire short story in a small press 'zine called Dead of Night.
I did more short stories along with book reviews and soon realized that each piece, whether it featured ghosts, vampires or aliens always had a romance or romantic elements included.
I've sold a Timeless Wish (time travel) and Silver Rain (reincarnation) to Jove, a short contemporary to e-publisher Book-On-Disc.com and I have an historical Bittersweet Surrender which was released March 2001 from Avid Press. Bittersweet Surrender is the book that "inspired" Timeless Wish and I'm thrilled that it's now in print.
