Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sparkling Regency Romance from a Captivating New Voice Lady Miranda Hawthorne acts every inch the lady, but inside she longs to be bold and carefree. Entering her fourth Season and approaching spinsterhood in the eyes of society, she pours her innermost feelings out not in a diary but in letters to her brother's old school friend, a duke--with no intention of ever sending these private thoughts to a man she's heard stories about but never met. Meanwhile, she also finds herself intrigued by Marlow, her brother's new valet, and although she may wish to break free of the strictures that bind her, falling in love with a servant is more of a rebellion than she planned. When Marlow accidentally discovers and mails one of the letters to her unwitting confidant, Miranda is beyond mortified. And even more shocked when the duke returns her note with one of his own that initiates a courtship-by-mail. Insecurity about her lack of suitors shifts into confusion at her growing feelings for two men--one she's never met but whose words deeply resonate with her heart, and one she has come to depend on but whose behavior is more and more suspicious. When it becomes apparent state secrets are at risk and Marlow is right in the thick of the conflict, one thing is certain: Miranda's heart is far from all that's at risk for the Hawthornes and those they love.

Wayfarers gives evidence of the epic miles one may travel when morality transcends the dead-end of mindless dogma and becomes, instead, a conduit to personal happiness. John Johnson, linguist A Scribendi critique Hello Mr. Cook, I read your engaging novel and thoroughly enjoyed it. I found it difficult to put away in the evenings. It was a pleasure to read with its vivid details presented in wonderfully lush descriptive passages. By focusing specifically on a handful of characters, you manage to ensure that the story is not too bogged down in historical details, which could be distracting. The book is well-organized and obviously well thought out. The plot, which is excellent, flows organically from one event to the next, toward the natural conclusion. It's especially interesting how Daniel and Jerry's lives parallel each other throughout the book. The dialogue is so well done. You do an excellent job of capturing the nuances of the characters' speech and their accents. Additionally, you do well at making the dialogue realistic to the characters. For the most part, it seems that each character would naturally say whatever it is you have written for them. Very nicely done! Mr. Cook: I'm the person at WritersLiterary responsible for reviewing your manuscript. I just finished -- and feel compelled to tell you that I think you have a SUPERB writing style, and I love your prose. Russell (Brooklyn, NY)
