The False Countess (Regency Historical)

Robert Carlisle, heir to the Dukedom of Dunsbury spent years traipsing through war-torn Europe , exiled by his father. Returning home to finally take up his duties, he finds marriage to a respectable woman of good birth at the top of his list. But then he meets the Russian Countess Alisa Borodinicha...

Catherine Purcell married for duty once. Now that she is a widow, she yearns for a bit more adventure in her life. Her Russian grandmother's court dress provides just the inspiration she needs to seek it.

And now for something completely different...

I've written ten romance novels. And I have loved the creation and publication of them (well, of nine of them...the first one will never see the light of day, I vow). And it's not that there aren't other couples knocking on my brain wanting their stories to be told, but the book I am currently working on is a big departure from the romance genre. It is a modern setting (shocking, I know) and while it deals with relationships, they are the relationships between mothers and daughters and their friends. It deals with some serious modern issues AND delves a bit into science-fiction realism. Yes, it's a lot, but so far it seems to be working. It is by far my most personal work and I am writing furiously to get these women's story out. Because in the end, just like with romance novels, what binds us all is LOVE.
