So before I get lost to that world, let me tell you about another of my favorites -- SONG OF MY HEART, which came out with Samhain Publishing and is still available in both print and ebook.
Since I’m a product of
‘women’s lib’, I love independent, strong heroines. What I didn’t realize until
Abigail O’Brien kept quoting them in SONG OF MY HEART was how many women from
the nineteenth century were just as vocal about their rights as we were in the
1970s. Mary Wollstonecraft, Susan B. Anthony and Kate
Nye-Starr were a few of Abby’s favorites and I really enjoyed the part they
played in Abby and Max’s story.
Abby and Max -- two stubborn, independent people who found love hard to
resist – after several shootings, high stakes poker games, robberies, and
incidents where Max had to rescue Abby from trouble.
Of course, Maxwell Grant isn’t the easiest
man to get along with, either, because he constantly changes disguises and Abby isn’t sure who she likes more – Donal O’Flagherty, a rogue Irishman who flirts
outrageously; Reverend Jonas Fishbone, who although very considerate is far too
pious; or Jeffery Markham, the suave southern gentleman and expert poker
player.
Max and Abby’s story begins at a Harvey
House restaurant in Topeka , Kansas
and sweeps westward aboard the transcontinental railroad, through Denver
and on to San Francisco . The ride is full of mysterious characters, intrigue and romance.
