But Evie is struggling. With her dearest mother gone, Yorkshire with its cold, damp countryside and strict societal rules makes Evie feel suffocated and alone.<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />Her friendship with Sophie Bellingham, the gently reared daughter of a wealthy rail baron, is Evie’s only comfort. Until the arrival of local cotton mill owner, Alexander Lucas.<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />Newly returned from America, it is expected Alexander will marry and finally make England his home. And Sophie with her family connections and polite manners is the obvious choice.<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />But when Alexander meets Evie, a simmering passion ignites between them. Evie, with her rebellious spirit is like no other woman Alex has ever met, but to reject Sophie for Evie would cause a scandal and devastate everyone Evie loves.<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />Evie knows she must do her duty. But in doing so faces the unbearable future of being without the man she loves.</span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: 0cm;">Available now on Amazon: <a href="http://getbook.at/thesoldiersdaughter">http://getbook.at/thesoldiersdaughter</a></p></td></tr></tbody></table></td></tr></tbody></table></td></tr></tbody></table>AnneMarie Brearhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12913093174855808979noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2817979879375036465.post-47134721504234249042022-04-26T23:15:00.006+01:002022-04-26T23:15:39.508+01:002000 Reviews<p> </p><p>Over 2000 reviews in 3 months of release! <o:p></o:p></p>

Set in 1953, Liverpool. The year of the Queen's Coronation is also the year local accountant, Evie Kilgaren, is hoping her summer wedding to Danny Harris will go ahead. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Or will a new rival firm finally drive Danny's haulage business into the ground and destroy everything Evie and Danny have tirelessly worked for? </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Although, this is not the only cloud hanging over Reckoner's Row, A killer is at large in the dockside streets. Evie and her trainee hairstylist sister, Lucy, could be in terrible danger when Ada Harris gets alarming news from her estranged husband, Bert, who has damning news of Evie's mother's killer. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Bert has the evidence in a box, hidden for many years. But does Ada have the courage to open it when Bert breathes his last?

These diaries are brilliant when I’m writing a story set in colonial Australia and they give me an insight to how they lived and what was happening in the world around them at that time. From their personal entries, we can learn what was important to them, their daily routine, their views and opinions. They can also lift some of those myths we in the modern world tend to think as true.</p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; overflow-wrap: break-word; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">Below are some pages from a selected few of my diaries, which may show why I adore them so much.</p><p class="p1" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; overflow-wrap: break-word; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">This page is from The Letters of Rachel Henning.

I'm afraid this splash of September sunshine won't last too long, but I'm making the most of the "garden desk" while I can!</p><p style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue"; font-size: 16px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; min-height: 18px;"><br /></p><p style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue"; font-size: 16px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px;">I hope too, that you’ve read some amazing books from all the authors on this blog and have topped up your home libraries, kindles and e-devices with a great selection of books.</p><p style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue"; font-size: 16px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px;"><br /></p><p style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue"; font-size: 16px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px;">If you'd like to browse my books with <a href="https://www.amazon.co.uk/Carol-Rivers/e/B0034OZ23O/ref=dp_byline_cont_pop_ebooks_1">AMAZON</a> you'll find a selection of sagas from Victorian to the 1960's.</p><p style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue"; font-size: 16px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; min-height: 18px;"><br /></p><p style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue"; font-size: 16px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px;">I’ve just begun work on my new book, slower this time, hampered by a hand injury, but the outline is done and the working title at the moment is THE WAR WIDOW’S POSY. This may change over the next few months, but so far my heroine is the young and lovely orphan 17-year-old Kate Wilson, who is just about to be married to her sweetheart Harry, when - yes, you’ve guessed it - war breaks out and all healthy, able and willing young men are called to fight for their country. Harry is among the first volunteers but is certain the conflict will be over by Christmas 1914. However, as we all know, this was a very vain hope. True love, glory, grief, coping with monstrous disability - and courage - run side by side in this family saga and I’m really enjoying tackling some very difficult subjects. This book will be next year’s publication - if all goes to plan!</p><p style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue"; font-size: 16px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; min-height: 18px;"><br /></p><p style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue"; font-size: 16px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px;">Meanwhile, my book <a href="https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B08P52GZKR/ref=dbs_a_def_rwt_bibl_vppi_i0">GIRL WITH SECRETS</a> is at a fabulous discounted price of 99p with </p><p style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue"; font-size: 16px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px;"><b>Hello Books</b>, so follow this link if you’d like to download a bargain! </p><p style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue"; font-size: 16px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px;"><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><a href="https://oq832.infusion-links.com/api/v1/click/4661978856816640/5401666124120064">https://oq832.infusion-links.com/api/v1/click/4661978856816640/5401666124120064</a></span></p><p style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue"; font-size: 16px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px;"><br /></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://www.blogger.com/u/0/blog/post/edit/2817979879375036465/4721367292324720871?hl=en-GB#" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="628" data-original-width="1200" height="167" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-8tlfm5AI2mc/YTtGnuJKUdI/AAAAAAAAFu4/usFJAB_hAsEkafVAVrcsrSXpdDvckciigCLcBGAsYHQ/s320/HISTORICAL-FICTION-fb-ad%2B%252839%2529.png" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><i><span style="--tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); --tw-shadow: 0 0 rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); font-family: "Fauna One", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; text-align: start;">"<b>Hello Books</b></span><span style="--tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); --tw-shadow: 0 0 rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); font-family: "Fauna One", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; text-align: start;"> is a brand new service delivering curated weekly lists of free and discounted books to hungry readers all around the globe.

However, it took time and experience before Daisy was written into life. February 23rd sees the publication of<a href="https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B08P52GZKR/ref=dbs_a_def_rwt_bibl_vppi_i0"> Girl with Secrets</a>, lead actor, a 9-year-old precocious tomboy, who like Scout, adores her father and believes the world was made just for her. But life takes over and the perilous nature of world events leaves an indelible mark on Daisy and her family. Just as life does on all of us. Just as it does for the Scouts of this world, which is why I added an epigraph to this book. 17-year-old Patsie Duggan and his 13-year old sister Maureen, together with a team of other children and teenagers, saved many lives and lost some of their own during 1940/41 as they rescued the trapped and injured of London’s devastated East End. Better known as the “Dead End Kids” they truly were the unsung heroes of the London blitz. Just follow the link below if you’d like to know more about Patsie and his friends. And if you read my book,<a href="https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B08P52GZKR/ref=dbs_a_def_rwt_bibl_vppi_i0"> Girl with Secrets</a>, you’ll know where the inspiration for my characters come from; a small town in Alabama USA and the inferno of London’s burning buildings during World War 2.</p><div><a href="https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B08P52GZKR/ref=dbs_a_def_rwt_bibl_vppi_i0"> GIRL WITH SECRETS </a>Kindle publication 23rd February 2021</div><p><br /></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2817979879375036465.post-6891987800584232572020-12-04T13:41:00.001+00:002021-08-23T15:48:05.109+01:00<p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-VfLHk_i0m84/X8o7L-65X8I/AAAAAAAAP5k/n7pz0xi1shkXWjPBJGsp1pRms5mM0QT1wCPcBGAsYHg/s4160/IMG_20200901_180558.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4160" data-original-width="3120" height="269" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-VfLHk_i0m84/X8o7L-65X8I/AAAAAAAAP5k/n7pz0xi1shkXWjPBJGsp1pRms5mM0QT1wCPcBGAsYHg/w165-h269/IMG_20200901_180558.jpg" width="165" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-CNQ-vgQIAz0/X8o7hY1j6lI/AAAAAAAAP5s/n8wjj9rbL5EXAEGqlQbJXcyQ8Lnms6UEACPcBGAsYHg/s3630/IMG_20200828_170550.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3630" data-original-width="2504" height="247" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-CNQ-vgQIAz0/X8o7hY1j6lI/AAAAAAAAP5s/n8wjj9rbL5EXAEGqlQbJXcyQ8Lnms6UEACPcBGAsYHg/w156-h247/IMG_20200828_170550.jpg" width="156" /></a></div><br /></div><br /> <p></p>Sheila Rileyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01137327231344883846noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2817979879375036465.post-55702642702744595642020-11-19T23:36:00.003+00:002020-11-19T23:36:33.977+00:00New Release: The Tobacconist's Wife!<p> </p><p> <span style="background: white; color: #38444d; font-family: "Segoe UI",sans-serif; font-size: 10.5pt;">"The Tobacconist's Wife is a very engaging

The defining era of WWI is a fascination to me. I have researched this turbulent time for years and I'm always learning new things about it. One of my bucket list goals was to visit the battlefields of Belgium. Walking amongst the graves, the old trenches, visiting the water-filled bomb craters, going to museums, and spending time in beautiful Ypres was inspiring. How could you not be moved? My own ancestors fought and died in WWI. I had five great+ uncles all brothers from one family fight. Two died - Arthur and Alfred Ellis. They were the inspiration behind the Jackson brothers in my book The Woman from Beaumont Farm. My Ellis uncles live on in those pages.</span></p><div dir="auto" style="background-color: white; color: #050505; font-family: "Segoe UI Historic", "Segoe UI", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; white-space: pre-wrap;">The few books I've written set in WWI are homage to all those wonderful Allied men and women who served their countries for our freedom. </div><div dir="auto" style="background-color: white; color: #050505; font-family: "Segoe UI Historic", "Segoe UI", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; white-space: pre-wrap;">We must never forget their sacrifices.

Working on the family’s stall selling the fruit and vegetables grown in their own fields gives her a sense of purpose and is healthier than working in a dangerous cotton mill.</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px;">Although not thinking of marriage, when Beth meets Noah Jackson, a village miner, she is suddenly very aware of Noah as a man who could change her mind. The summer brings the two closer and their feelings deepen while Noah studies hard to fulfill his dreams of becoming a teacher and securing a better life than his parents endure.</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px;">But, a disaster at the coal mine changes lives forever.

Louis Melville, the wealthy son of a local gentry family, is acutely aware of Beth’s beauty and he wants her for himself. At first, he is willing to offer marriage, but when Beth turns him down in favour of Noah, Melville, furious to be denied, wreaks revenge with devastating consequences.</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px;">Will Beth and Noah find the happiness they wish for or will overwhelming events break them apart?</span></p>
