In
keeping with Halloween, and the Blog Hop, Things That Go Bump, I’ve not seen any good suspense movies lately. Nor have I read any good suspense novels.
So,
I’ll discuss the suspense in my own
novels. Masquerade Marriage is a
Scottish historical set in 1746. The heroine flees from an awful arranged
marriage to a sadistic duke. But she has nowhere to hide where the duke can’t
find her. He wants her fortune and her ability to bear him a son. Her only way
out is to get married. She chooses a name from a secret list of Highland
warriors with a price on their heads. The hero seeks only to protect his mother
and younger sister from the soldiers who seek their death. When he marries the
heroine she gives him the protection of her identity, her wealth, and her
castle. In their suspenseful race
against death, the unlikely pair discover unexpected love.
A Texas
Christmas Mystery
finds the hero framed for murder. Sparks fly as the lady coastguardsman seeks
to arrest the oil rig troubleshooter. She needs to solve her first case, but
the handsome Cajun suspect makes her heart race and her toes tingle. He’s
worked all his life for his high-paying adventurous job. When the past
threatens his future, will he endanger the woman he loves to save himself? This
book is filled with suspense.
In
Marriage By Arrangement, why does a
handsome, powerful noble of the highest rank in England stoop to marry a mere
Lady of Lowland Scotland?
Are
the whispered stories about him true? With his shadowy past and strange
behavior, what awful secret does he
hide? Can the lady keep her vow to make her marriage happy, unlike that of her
parents, or to save her unborn child and her own life, must she arrange for the
duke’s death?
Which
book do you think contains the most suspense?
Leave a comment to enter for a chance to win an autographed copy of all three
books.
ANNE

novel, a Scottish historical, Masquerade Marriage, won the New
England Reader Choice award, the Laurel Wreath Award, and the Heart of
Excellence Award. The sequel Marriage By
