Good News Post

Welcome to this week's Good News!


COVERS & BLURBS


Jess Anastasi
Heart of the Warlord gets a cover....castles and spaceships, oh my! Scheduled for release 16th April.



Blurb:


On the planet Kanaan, Jiovahnie Dorrian, the Marques of Gryffin, walks a fine line between keeping his place in society amongst the Ruling Families, and his ancestral legacy of being a warlord. Though he'd rather stay camped in the Borderlands with his men, when his cousin, the Duque of Harkin is to be married, it’s the event of the season. One he can't miss. After all, the duque expects him to be the best man. But Vahn doesn't anticipate his best man duties to include fetching his cousin's bride when an enemy attempts to abduct her.


Lady Gwynevive Tyne isn't the wilting Miss society expects her to be. And when mercenaries attack her traveling party on the way to her intended husband's home, she does what any self-respecting girl should — tries to steal the enemy's ship to escape. But before she can get away with the reckless plan, a warrior turns up claiming to be sent by her fiancé. He dresses like a mercenary and his silvery, metal-gray eyes make her heart beat a little too fast.

For both Vahn and Gwyn, a forbidden attraction flames to life between them almost instantly. Both know there's no way they can be together. Yet neither of them can stay away from one another. An enemy is intent on preventing Gwyn's marriage, and at every turn, Vahn finds himself protecting Gwyn from danger. He needs to keep her safe and then hand her over to his cousin to wed. And when the time comes, they have to find some way to let each other go… Or risk starting a war that could tear apart the Ruling Families.



COMPETITIONS

New member, Carolyn is a finalist in the Emerald's Category session (Romance Writers of Australia). Woohoo!





REVIEWS

Kylie Griffin
Vengeance Born gets a 4 heart review from Riverina Romantics. Here's a snippet:

"Annika and Kalan were a match made in fantasy heaven. A sweet yet tortured heroine and Kalan was the hero that conquered her demons and showed her what love truly meant. The connection between the two is felt early on but you are left simmering for a while until they finally get their act together. "
