“A Beauty So Rare” Book Review...

Jan 19, 2015 by

Welcome back to Rachel’s Back Talk! I’m so glad you could join me again. Today I am reviewing book 2 from Tamera Alexanders’s Belmont Mansion series, A Beauty So Rare. I adore reading the Belmont Mansion series and the second book was just as wonderful as the first! And I am looking forward with great anticipation to the third!   As is my custom, if I could ask Tamera one question about A Beauty So Rare, it would be — “Why did you make Eleanor hate the color pink?” 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, on to Rachel’s Back Talk!     From the Back Cover: Plain, practical Eleanor Braddock knows she...

Was it easier or harder?” 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, on to Rachel’s Back Talk!     From the Back Cover: Who can work in a house...

So without further ado, on to Rachel’s Back Talk – Special Edition!  Interview: RR: Hi Denise! It is so wonderful to have you here at Rachel’s Back Talk. To begin, let’s talk about when you knew that you wanted to be a writer. DH: In my early 20s I started toying with the idea of writing a book. But I was in college, and then I started having kids, and life got busy. It wasn’t until my late twenties when my grandfather passed away that I realized life was too short to back-burner my dreams. RR: So how would you describe your writing process? Are you more of...
