“Sybil and Nancy leaned over to catch a glimpse of the sun sparkling on the muddy waters of the River Plate. The skyscrapers stood proudly in clumps and Sybil assumed that the patches of green were parks. In no time the plane was screeching to a halt and they had arrived in Buenos Aires.”

Greetings, Phyllis! Thanks for contacting me. Congratulations on your books, good luck with future ones! Happy reading, writing, and everything else. I hope you're having a good week and month. Blessings!Best wishes from Majenta
Thank you for your friend invite, Phyllis. I'm actually English by birth, born in the town of Walsall on the edge of the Black Country, but have lived in Wales for nearly 11 years. My husband is Welsh by birth but his mother moved to the Midlands when he was only one year old. He has taught me the correct pronunciation for lots of Welsh words and can easily pronounce Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch !!
I read almost exclusively historical romances with the exception of J. R. Ward's Black Dagger Brotherhood series (paranormal romance) which a friend on Goodreads recommended to me some years ago. Reluctantly, I read the first book and became totally addicted to the series!
