How I Bring Frontier Romance to Life: Tons of Research

Picture One of the reasons I love historical novels is they transport the reader to another world in a way no contemporary story can—no matter how compelling. Reading a good historical romance is like going back in time. The period adds a lush, delicious layer to the escapism we all love to get from a captivating romance book.
There’s another side to writing historicals. A side that is less dreamy and mor Read more of this blog post »

It is my pleasure. Enjoy your week!

Hi Johanna,

Yes, I did send one about a month ago when I saw your name as a potential beta reader. Not sure my genre is completely what you're used to. It is a western historical romance series. Four books focusing on four brothers in the Arizona territory of the 1870s-1880s. Let me know if you have any interest. Book one will go into final line edits next week. Or, I would greatly appreciate it if you would let me know of other beta readers who might be interested.

Thanks for getting back to me!
Shirleen


Johanna Shirleen, did you send me a message here on Goodreads? I thought I saw one but now I cannot find it.

Sorry to bother you!
