BE ON THE LOOKOUT FOR THIS GREAT READ COMING SOON FROM ONE OF MY NEW FAVORITE AUTHORS,
HOLLY BUSH
Coming this spring - a new historical romance
Cross the Ocean
The very proud Duke of Wexford was about to have his orderly
world blown apart. At the age of
nineteen Blake Sanders had wed a beautiful, dutiful wife and she had borne him
three children. But now as mid-life approached, the Duchess had the unheard of
temerity to leave him! Too mortified by her behavior to mix in ton company,
Blake sought companionship with his best friend and neighbor, Anthony Burroughs
and his wife Elizabeth. But Blake had
forgotten the Burrough’s were entertaining a house guest, Elizabeth’s distant
cousin, a spinsterish ‘Amazon from America’.
Gertrude Finch, a champion for women’s rights, had long ago
decided most men were useless other than Uncle Fred who’d raised her on his
horse ranch near Chicago. While
traveling with other Suffragettes, Gert lectured women on the perils of passion
and the value of independence but thought of neither when Blake kissed her.
While opposite in nearly every way, other than an attraction neither could
deny, their one night of passion would change her world, and send Gert
scurrying her way back home across the ocean.
When Blake discovered his heir had stowed away on Gert’s
ship, he set out on his own adventure to America, to bring the boy home and to
see Gert once again. Traversing America’s vast wilderness, Blake discovered
that this tall, loud Suffragette had changed his life. Whether riding the rails
or meeting common folk, Blake saw a whole new way of living but most of all, he
realized something about love. He found he was not immune, and his heart could
love, and love deeply.
