Susan May Warren strikes again!

           Book Info 
 
About Duchess: Book Three in the Daughters of Fortune series.
When her country needs her, will she have the courage to surrender her glittering world and her one true love?
The golden age of Hollywood is in the business of creating stars. Rosie Worth, now starlet Roxy Price, has found everything she's wanted in the glamour of the silver screen. With adoring fans and a studio-mogul husband, she's finally silenced the voices-and grief-of the past. Her future shines bright...until the fated Black Friday when it all comes crashing down. When Roxy loses everything, she finds herself disgraced and penniless. Her only hope is to join forces with Belgian duke Rolfe Van Horne, a longtime film investor. But Rolfe is not who he seems, and he has other plans for Roxy and her movies-plans to support a growing unrest in Europe, plans that could break her heart and endanger her life. Find out more about the series by clicking on these links. Heiress. Baroness.

MY REVIEW: I love love love this entire series. They keep getting better as they go on. I've always loved family saga type historicals, where the family line/heritage continues as the story progresses. You stay so connected to the characters, and if it's a book by Susie, these characters are going to live on in your head long after "The End" anyway ;)
 
Susan May Warren is one of those rare finds that seems to rock any genre she attempts, and her historicals live up to the hype. You won't be disappointed! :)

           Book Info 

About The Heiress of Winterwood: Pride goes before the fall . . . but what comes after?
Darbury, England, 1814
Amelia Barrett gave her word. Keeping it could cost her everything.
Amelia Barrett, heiress to an estate nestled in the English moors, defies family expectations and promises to raise her dying friend's baby. She'll risk everything to keep her word-even to the point of proposing to the child's father-a sea captain she's never met.
When the child vanishes with little more than an ominous ransom note hinting at her whereabouts, Amelia and Graham are driven to test the boundaries of their love for this little one.
Amelia's detailed plans would normally see her through any trial, but now, desperate and shaken, she's forced to examine her soul and face her one weakness: pride.
Graham's strength and self-control have served him well and earned him much respect, but chasing perfection has kept him a prisoner of his own discipline. And away from the family he has sworn to love and protect.
Both must learn to have faith and relinquish control so they can embrace the future ahead of them.

    Official Announcement!

    Hello friends!

    I'm officially taking a hiatus from this blog for a while, to concentrate on my other blogs that right now, have my heart.

    I'll be likely posting book reviews here from time to time still, though I hope to focus my book reviews eventually at www.writergetsreal.blogspot.com.

    SO! That means...

    You can find me 5 days a week at: www.writergetsreal.blogspot.com
    You can find me every Wednesday at www.scribblechicks.blogspot.com
    You can find me the 10th and the 24th at www.girlsgodgoodlife.blogspot.com

    And you can find me the first Saturday of every month at Nicole O'Dell's CHOOSE NOW ministry, where I write a monthly column "On Good Girls". http://nicoleodell.com/2013/04/on-good-girls-get-out-of-way-already/  (most recent article)

    Also, look for my frequent articles at www.ibelieve.com  (a division of Crosswalk)
