Broken Hero coming soon


I just received the release date for my World War II romance, Broken Hero.
Ebook will be out 29th Feb 08 and the paperback 25th April 08.

Very happy about that!

I really enjoyed writing a different period and Audrey and Jake were excellent characters to love. LOL

Blurb

Audrey Pearson’s life changed dramatically when WWII broke out and her large home, Twelve Pines on the East Yorkshire coast, became a convalescence home for wounded soldiers. Her life is no longer lavish with entertainment, beautiful clothes and surrounded by a loving family. Soldiers, physically and mentally wounded now fill her home. The smell of disinfectant replaces her mother’s perfume and gone are the friends and acquaintances - instead nurses roam the hallways.

Captain Jake Harding, a doctor training in psychiatry arrives at Twelve Pines. Audrey immediately finds herself attracted to the Captain, but he is remote towards her. Puzzled by his cold behaviour, Audrey tries to learn more about the handsome Captain. He reveals that he’s lost a wife and baby in childbirth and refuses to ever remarry. However, despite this, Audrey believes she can change his mind and make him aware he doesn’t have to spend his life alone. The ice around Jake’s heart begins to melt. For years he has rejected the possibility of finding love again because of the pain it caused him before, but the beautiful Audrey shows him her love and she needs someone to love her in return.

Could he honestly walk away from her, from the love that could be his?

Ebook Feb 29th

Being offered the privilege of reviewing this book for Anne, I simply wanted to say how much I enjoyed Broken Hero. Her portrayal of wartime England was very authentic and she deals with a sensitive subject many authors dare not venture into - those whose battle wound weren't visible.
Bravo Anne, and may Audrey and Jake appear one day in another story

Best Seller!

  So happy to see The Winter Widow a best seller in Amazon Australia Kindle!
