March is Marching Closer

Here in Raleigh, NC the weather has improved, but much of the northern Midwest and New England is suffering through the aftermath of ice and snow. Is there anything more inconsistent than the weather?

My phone, the television, and the radio keep me up-to-date but the real hint of spring is felt the moment I walk outside. (At this writing, our doors are open and the birds are singing, while the squirrels are chasing each other.)

For me, just a few weeks after cataract surgery, I am getting back into writing. On Wednesday last I finished editing and formatting my next book, The Rogue's Ring. It is the third full-length book in my Treasure Tales series and follows The Earl's Treasure and The Duke's Diamond. Here is the plot in a nutshell (yep, still thinking about those darn squirrels.)

Heading out on his horse, Ghost, into the snowy Highlands of Scotland in January 1817 was not sane, but Bryce Ketteridge would never let down his friends. If a duke, an earl, and a former spy felt finding the owners of nobleman’s rings was important, he would do his share. Coming across masked bandits, and shooting one, turned his life on end. What follows was not in his plans. 

The last thing Cat Douglas wished to do was steal coins from the handsome stranger she meets at a tavern. When he later shoots her while she threatened a nobleman’s coach, she suspected he had no idea it was her. Kidnapped boys, pirate threats, and murder propel them to save a boy named Blake. He was, after all, special to them both.

My next challenge is creating a book cover that does the story justice AND reminds readers of Books #1 and #2. I have already chosen the couple who will grace the cover, but I still need a background. Should I use an ocean scene? A pirate ship? His horse? The cave she lived in? Lots to decide. Once I have a cover, I will upload the ebook information to Amazon and others, which will give me a chance to let my readers know that the book will be released on May 12th.

While you wait for my new book, make sure to read Books #1 and #2. Each will take you on a fantastic treasure hunt while my three brooding men find love in the Highlands of Scotland.
