16 years I have not moved my father's bible book mark. And 16 years later, I am releasing the books I wrote after his death. There is a special feel over these releases, a sense of completion and joy.
I've got that nervous feeling you get right before you hit release and it's fantastic. I've waited 16 years for Varian Deverell to come to life on the page and tomorrow he does. I don't know if readers will embrace a historical romance from me. A good friend, who reads all my books, says it's very different, like I have dual personalities when I write. Maybe because it was written during a difficult time in my life: after my father died. I couldn't write after his death. It took me a very long time to find my voice again. Then, my mother sent me his bible. He read the new testament every night and the book marker was clipped on 1 Corinthians 13. But I could write again after I got the bible. So, there is a 1 Corinthians theme woven through all three books: When the Perfect Comes, Face to Face, Love's Patient Fury.
