Delia Parr writes historical romance. Her previous novel, Hearts Awakening, was a Romantic Times Top Pick. I am sure that this novel will find its way there also. I am relatively new at reading this type of novel and it was fun; a nice break from the other stuff I usually read.

Well, it is almost the end of the year. What a journey I have had! To think that in January my book was just in the editing stage and now I have books coming to me. Such an awesome experience.

If you looked at it just so, it would almost be like I was giving birth to a child. Months of it getting better and better with fine tuning. Being covered…
