Do I have regrets? No. Not at all. Zero of them. 

Anyway, keep your eyes peeled for the release of What Heals the Heart, formerly known as Waterfall, because it’s SO MUCH BETTER NOW. 

My goal is to re release by December 1. We’ll see how that goes.
Me: “allriiiight time to write this story about Me: “allriiiight time to write this story about my Edwardian Wallflower! I’ll probably start her kind of quiet and she’ll gain confidence later.”
Henrietta Blake: breaks a man’s nose in chapter two
Me: “well ok then” 

That sword photo was my OG character inspiration. Shoulda known.
This weekend I’m on a writer’s getaway with @s This weekend I’m on a writer’s getaway with @shopfoxburrow and as always I’m spending lots of time on Pinterest looking at the various gorgeous Edwardian fashion plates for inspiration. This lady caught my eye. I’m OBSESSED. 😍😍😍

Ravenna will definitely be wearing this for a scene 😅
Ravenna, Henrietta, and Alice. My three Edwardian Ravenna, Henrietta, and Alice. My three Edwardian heroines breaking stereotypes and living their lives in spite of society’s judgement. 

Ravenna, a widow with a secret life, sets out to save herself and her daughter from the clawing grasp of a man threatening to take everything she has - all while living a second life as one of England’s most admired mysterious singers. Taking her future into her own hands, she propositions the one man who might side with her in her fight to take back her life. But what will he say if he finds out who she really is? No one knows her identity… yet. The Widow’s Proposal will be first in this lineup of novels. 

Henrietta is a wallflower with horrible taste in clothes and hats, but it turns out the comical facade hides a deep desire to rule her own life. Tired of being perceived through the lens of what men desire and what her family has planned for her, she begins to challenge society’s expectations. When her reputation is put at stake, she learns in the end she can very well fight for herself. There may be a duel. Just sayin. The Wallflower’s Invitation is number two in the series. 

And finally, Alice, the daughter of a Duke, has led a very sheltered and charmed life enjoying balls and beautiful gowns, but at the heart of it she wants more. Pursuing her career as a novelist she stumbles upon a dead body - and the fact that the man she has been in love with since she first met him might be entangled in something dangerous. Casting her reputation aside, she saves his life - more than once - but can she save herself? The Writer’s Entanglement will be the third book of the series. 

I am having SO. MUCH. FUN. writing these. I can’t wait to finish so I can share them!
Most authors work on one manuscript at a time but Most authors work on one manuscript at a time but I’m working on three standalone but connected novels, focused on three friends who stand up for themselves in the face of everything society expects. I’m having SO much fun bringing these to life!

Meet Henrietta Blake. A wallflower determined to make her own way in life, and break free of the decisions everyone else makes for her. She’s witty, humorous, and finds herself through a journey of disregarding society’s expectations, discarding her family’s rules, and discovering her passions. Here’s a little peek at her novel! 

“”Henrietta!” Balthazar grabbed her arm and pulled her to a stop. Eyes turning to stone, she turned her head and glared at the fingers gripping her coat before her gaze slid up to his. “You cannot fight your own bloody duel!” he burst out. 

Shaking his hand off firmly, she hefted the rapier in her grasp. “Yes,” she shot back. “I bloody well can.” She stood eye-to-eye with him. “I have spent too much of my life relying on men to do the right thing; too many years letting my mother make my choices, my father guide my steps. And I’m tired of letting others control my future. It’s my honor, and I will be the one who fights for it.”

“But what if --” he started, and she interrupted him. 

“If he fells me, you will take up my sword and slit his throat, I’ll expect nothing less. But he won’t win. He’s a bumbling idiot with no grace who would trip over the air on a ballroom floor while standing still. I’ve danced with the man enough to know he possesses very little agility.” The corner of her lips quirked up, and Balthezar could not help but drop his gaze to the movement. 

She was magnificent. Just then, as she stood in the wide field with the mist rising around her, her hair wild about her shoulders and her legs encased in breeches, she was absolutely glorious. Balthazar did not think he had ever been more in love with her than he was in that moment. Slowly, he nodded and stepped back. Fear laced through him when she set her jaw and backed away, but he stayed his hand. 

Some things could not be held tightly. Henrietta Blake was meant to fly free. And so, because he loved her, he would let go. “
Oh hello, long time no post! And what am I doing, Oh hello, long time no post! And what am I doing, you might ask? Uhhhh… writing the third novel in a set of three standalone related romance novels. They’re all separate but the characters live in each others’ worlds. 
Anyway, read on if you want a peek at Alice’s story!

In less time than it took her to process what had happened, a dark figure launched itself directly into the doorway where she stood, and she was slammed against the door. An uncontrolled squawk left her throat when his elbow met her stomach, and her head hit the wood behind her hard. As the breath left her lungs, she saw stars, and felt rather than saw the man in the alleyway turn, grabbing her elbows to keep her from sagging to the ground. Large, warm hands tightened on her arms and she could feel the rasp of fabric that brushed against her chest. 

The man holding her swore under his breath. 

Blinking away the stars, Alice tilted her chin upward towards the sound, and as her vision cleared her jaw went slack and a blush worked its way from her cheeks to her neck all the way down her body. She knew this man. Worse, she had dreamt of this man. Late at night, her fingers stained with the ink of her writing, she had stared listlessly out the window engaging her mind in all sorts of fantasies involving herself, the man before her, and every romantic entanglement one might have. 

He was, quite literally, the man of her dreams. 

And he was glaring at her as if he would like nothing more than to murder her on the spot.

She THICK 😅 decided to print out The Devil of C She THICK 😅 decided to print out The Devil of Calhoun to read through (and just have) while I wait for query answers. I’ve already edited and rewritten and proofread and had someone else proof read but sometimes I just itch and think “what if I could make something better tho?” So here we are. 

50 agents queried, 2 full manuscript requests, 14 rejections. I think that’s a good start 🥰
