Oh, I love that question! I write historical novels, and our family has some great mysteries in the past that would make terrific plots for novels. One mystery I'd love to solve, by way of a novel, would be the one about the wagon train that disappeared on its way to Oregon. My grandmother told me about this story. Apparently there was a long dry spell, and the leaders disagreed about the best route to find water. The wagon train split in half with my relatives taking the northern route. Those who took the southern route disappeared and never made it to Oregon. I write romance, so we'd have to have the hero go one way and the heroine go the other, and then find a way to solve the mystery and be reunited because I always give my readers a happy ending. . . that will take some more thought. Back to writing!

Hi Carrie, I have chatted with you about the Mississippi Readers event in July, but I haven't had the pleasure of reading any of your books yet. I am drawn to No Ocean too Wide and a Token of Love, but several of your titles are appealing! What do you recommend I start with? Thank you, Erin
