Another Book Monday. Usually I will be featuring books by other authors but this year I will let you know four times when one of my new offerings has been released.

First in Lyn Cote’s Newest Historical Saga

The Desires of Her Heart. Avon Inspire. (Texas: Star of Destiny, Bk. 1). Feb. 2009. c.320p. ISBN 978-0-06-137341-1. pap. $12.95.

“After gambling away his family’s estate, Kilbride decides to pack up and move the family to the new Texas territory, where land is free for the taking. But 25-year-old Dorritt knows her stepfather doesn’t have the sense or character to lead them there; instead, she relies on their wagon train’s rugged scout to guide them. Dorritt trusts Quinn until she discovers his prior business dealings with Kilbride. Dorritt, who wants to be free of her stepfather so she can live her own dreams, discovers, though, that her dreams may include a man after all. In her new series launch, the RITA Award–winning author (Blessed Assurance, “Women of Ivy Manor” series) demonstrates her skill at creating strong female protagonists in compelling stories that will captivate historical romance readers.” Library Journal

I was especially pleased to read the phrase, “…her skill at creating strong female protagonists in compelling stories….” That is what I try to do in all the stories I write.

Please drop by my website: www.LynCote.net to find out more and see the lovely cover art the book received. And as always, my books can be purchased from my website. If you can’t afford to buy it yourself, please ask your local librarian or church librarian to get it for you.
