The Duke’s Lady by Brenda Jernigan
I had to buy The Duke’s Lady because I had the second in Brenda Jernigan’s (@bkj1608) Lady Series and I like to read a series in order. I’m glad I did. It was terrific with lots of my favorite elements: sea voyage, sea-captain, pirates, heroine who wears britches. It’s also got balls in England, the tonne, and dressing up for such. What sets it apart is the inclusion of Jean Lafitte, the pirate, andthe Battle of New Orleans. The English duke, Adam, has ties to both England and America. The he...

Appointments and meds and tests! Oh my!
The last three days have been filled with various doctor appointments, med changes and refills, and a cat scan. Most not for me. I’m the primary caregiver for my m-i-l who has dementia. Health care is so time consuming. Beyond the actual visits and such, there’s the paper work generated, the bills and insurance to organize, and meds to take or make sure are taken three times a day.
Bedtime pill comment (said nightly). “Just one?” Thank heaven that, although she grimaces with every pill she sw...

Researching Randolph’s Family History
Randolph Meryon, sadist and owner of the Whip Hand on Beta Tauwas born and raised on Tallav. He even tried his hand at being a Marshal of Tallav, but it didn’t work out. I’ve spent most of the week researching Irish medieval weapons, armor, and family coat’s of arms. I selected Randolph’s surname long before I began writing his book. So I wasn’t sure I couldmake Meryon fit into Irish ancestry. I managed it. And the means I used actually fits into the whole faux Irish thing that the founding m...

Kickass Heroines
A kick-assheroine doesn’t necessarily have tophysically take someone on. In fact, you can’t really take numbers and deal out justice without the proper frame of mind. You have to be mentally kick-assfirst.
I’m blessed to be able to associate with some of the truly kick-assactive duty women of the United States Air Force. They can take charge and make the guys hop, all while facing the same struggles that single women, wives, and mothers face every day. They deploy and miss their families. The...

Shane: Marshal of Tallav Cover Release and Prepub Sale
“Despite Adrianna’sagreement with Master Trey to give her trust gradually, Shane had an overpowering presence. He was a walking sex dream that had her nipples taut and her clit pulsing. The urge to kneel and offer herself to him suffused her. Idiot. She was already his. Your first. The thought of him. Over her. Filling her. Would he take her right away? Her insides went quivery. With her body a puddle of desire and her need to submit battering her, she was on the edge of losing herself.”
