Did
you ever get to see the television series History's Mysteries? They provided fun
and food for thought on a plethora of things. From the mysteries of Easter
Island, the Bloody Tower of London, the Ghost Plane of the Desert, to Ghost Ships
and everything in between. I loved that series and mourned when it ended. I
guess it's because I have a love of world history and find the events that have
never been solved fascinating. I also happen to love the paranormal—ghosts,
vampires, werewolves, and romance. Did I mention the romance?
I
suppose then it should come as no surprise that I have a tendency to combine some
of these elements in the stories I write. In my first paranormal romance published by The Wild Rose Press, "Spirit
of the Rebellion," I combined the ghost of a murdered Civil War captain,
framed for treason, and a Norse historian. I sent the couple on a quest to
clear his name and during the journey, they find their own happily-ever-after.

Now,
in "Spirit of the Revolution," Mathias McGregor, Revolutionary War Ranger and
spy meets his demise at the hands of the English redcoats before he can deliver
a secret message to General George Washington. This doesn't set well and for
over two centuries he and his companions brood over the failure. But then fate
steps in. Jolena Michaelsson, the lovely
master violinist and latest resident to invade his home, just happens to hold
the key to his final mission...
Want the Blurb?
Only
divine intervention could have guided Jolena Leigh Michaelsson to the doorstep
of a ramshackle manor in Pennsylvania, bringing her face-to-face with the man
she has waited her whole life to find. There is just one problem. Mathias
McGregor died two centuries ago…
Mathias,
Revolutionary War ranger and spy, battles his conscience and his heart when he
finds himself falling for the beautiful violinist invading his home. Jolena is
mortal and deserves far more than what he as a spirit can offer her.
When
Jolena’s family motto leads them to unearth a valuable coded message—the very
message Mathias died trying to deliver to General Washington—Jolena vows to
unravel the mystery surrounding the cryptic document. But someone else wants
the message, and he’ll stop at nothing to get it, not even murder.
Divine
intervention brought them together—will it also allow them to find forever?
I
invite you to come along on my Excerpt Tour, where you will find little
snippets taken from the book! I'll be giving away a custom made replica of Jolena's necklace, as well as an E copy of my book, "Shadow of the Witte Wieven." I hope you'll join us!

I never watched History's Mysteries. It sounds fascinating. I have not read too many ghost stories. I think I would enjoy yours.
