“Counterfeit Courtship” ~ Book Review...

Jul 18, 2016 by

Welcome back to Rachel’s Back Talk! I’m so glad you could join me again. Today I am reviewing Christina Miller’s book, Counterfeit Courtship.   As is my custom, if I could ask Christina one question about Counterfeit Courtship it would be — “What gave you (or Ellie) the idea to come up with a counterfeit courtship?” And if you want to know why I asked that question, I guess you’ll just have to read the book to find out!   And without further ado, onto Rachel’s Back Talk! From the Back Cover: Returning home, Confederate hero Colonel Graham Talbot faces his toughest battle yet—avoiding the marriage-minded young ladies in town vying for his attentions. With a stepmother and orphaned niece to support, the penniless soldier has no intention of marrying. Neither does the woman...

Elizabeth Camden ~ Author Interview 2...

Jul 15, 2016 by

Welcome back to Rachel’s Back Talk! Time for another Friday interview! Today’s interview is with Elizabeth Camden. This past Monday, I had the opportunity to review her book  From This Moment. So without further ado, on to Rachel’s Back Talk – Special Edition!  RR: Hi Elizabeth! It is great to have your here at Rachel’s Back Talk today. How did you come up with the idea for From This Moment? EC: I knew that this book was going to have a perma-free novella to introduce it, so I had to design a story big enough to encompass two separate releases. Promotional novellas almost always focus on secondary characters from the main novel while providing a sneak peek at the future lead character. I asked my editor if I could try something a little different. I’ve always been intrigued...

Karen Witemeyer ~ Author Interview & Giveaway...

Jul 1, 2016 by

Welcome back to Rachel’s Back Talk! Another Friday interview! Today’s interview is with Karen Witemeyer.  I had the opportunity to review her newest book  No Other Will Do. So without further ado, on to Rachel’s Back Talk – Special Edition!   RR: Hi Karen! It’s so great to have you here with us today. With nearly a dozen published books and novellas under your belt now, is it challenging to find new story ideas that feel fresh in a genre as popular as historical romance? KW: Yes, it is very challenging. In fact, I don’t think of myself as a naturally creative person. Many authors I talk to have drawers full of ideas that they’ve filed away for future stories. Me – well, I deal with one idea at a time. Often my inspiration comes from books...
