One year ago today, Champagne Book Group published my time travel romance, Her Highlander Choice.
(Click for link to purchase on Amazon.)
Her Highlander Choice developed over many years and went through countless revisions. This book is now and always will be special to me because:
Her Highlander Choice is my first traditionally published book.
My critique group, The Southlake Writers Group, saw this novel take shape from its raw beginnings to its published form.
I won my first contest ever with this book--that win kept me going when I doubted my career, myself, and my work.
A sneak peek into the worlds of Taryn and Ranulf:
Will she do her duty to help save humanity, or will she shake her matriarchal world by listening to her heart?
Taryn Bain, a fertile woman from an infertile future, knows the mission for which she was born is critical to saving humanity—go to fifteenth century Scotland, find a genetically ‘perfect’ male, and return to the year 2352. Alone. And pregnant.
As the leader of the world’s inaugural quest for fresh DNA, she faces many challenges, but the biggest arrives in the form of handsome, infuriating Ranulf ‘Ran’ Urquhart.
Ranulf held the keys to the territory and title of Cromarty, until his father married and brought forth legitimate heirs. Bastard-born Ran’s ruined dreams of lands, legitimacy, and nobility reignite when hope appears in Taryn Bain’s fiery package. If he can win her hand, he could regain all he lost with the birth of his younger brother.
Taryn’s objective is clear, her target a genetically pure male. She shouldn’t care who donates the DNA. Nor should she care she’s deceiving Ran with hopes which can never come true.
After all, love was never part of her mission…
