MY NEW RELEASE: THE CAPTAIN'S LADY

I'm so excited to announce that The Captain's Lady will be released March 16!! This is my first book set outside the United States, so it's a landmark for me. Come with me to 1776 LONDON, where American Patriot James Templeton is torn between love and duty and must deny his heart to help win his country's freedom.
Captain James Templeton's orders from General Washington are clear. His target: Lord Bennington, a member of George III's Privy Council. The assignment: find Bennington's war plans. The risks: the future of the East Florida Colony, Jamie's life...and his heart. In spite of the dangers of their hopeless situation, he's fallen in love with Lady Marianne Moberly, Lord Bennington's daughter. Desperate to protect his country, Jamie carries out his orders with a heavy heart. But Marianne's persistence is a challenge he never expected. With love and faith, they must navigate troubled waters to win their future together.

I had so much fun writing this book, and I was also inspired by what I learned in my research. It's amazing to me that those brave American patriots gave up so much so they could establish a new country with a new form of government never before tried. Today, we don't have any idea what that was like, but I do know I'm grateful to live in a free society. I hope my readers will catch a glimpse of all that our forefathers and foremothers were willing to give up so we can breathe the air of freedom.
The Captain's Lady is published by Harlequin's Steeple Hill Love Inspired Historical imprint. It can be ordered from cbd.com, amazon.com, and Barnesandnoble.com, or purchased at your local bookstore or even Walmart! Here's the ISBN: 13-978-0-373-82832-6.

Also, this contest is limited to residents of the United States and Canada.

Wyn,
When I'm doing research, I visit historical sites and libraries, plus obtaining research books about my era. I also consult experts in various fields and use the Internet to track little details to bring my story to life. I hope this answers your question. If not, let me know. Louise

Sounds like a fun book and one that would take a lot of research. I write articles for a historical magazine and I know it requires a lot of time and effort. Please sign me up.

Hello, Louise! The story line for
"The Captain's Lady" sounds wonderful. How traumatic to be torn between love of country and the love of your life. We take so much for granted with our modern conveniences and freedoms, but they were hard-won and sometimes carry a heavy cost. The heart of a patriot is true and devout!
