Hi
Peeps,
Please
join me in wishing ROUGH DIAMOND a happy Book Birthday. Just over one year ago, the first in
the Diamond Series was released. Part of Decadent Publishing’s Western
Escape, ROUGH DIAMOND features the tale of Alice Reynolds, saloon owner, and
Rupert Llewellyn, Englishman...or is he?
I
had so much fun with these characters and with the challenge of writing a
western. I hadn’t ever thought of writing a story set in America’s Old West,
but when my editor on TEACH ME suggested I give it a try, I jumped right in. A picture
formed of a lady saloon owner who creates a monthly theater Spectacular and
dreams of the stages of Paris and a canny Welshman employed by a coal company
who pretends to be English buffon in order to disarm those he engages in
business. Phew, that sounds a bit complex but it all makes sense, trust me!
Alice, of course, sees right through Rupert’s prattle and knows there’s more to
this man that what he wants her to believe. Rupert, for his part, is fascinated
that he can’t fool her. The rest is history!
ROUGH DIAMOND is currently on sale at all the Amazons including US
($2.99) and UK
(£1.98). Also, if you like
the sound of ROUGH DIAMOND, the second in the Diamond Series, FOOL’S GOLD, is available as well.
Thanks
for hanging with me, peeps.
Owner of the Diamond Saloon and Theater, Alice Reynolds is
astounded when a fancy Englishman offers to buy her saloon. She won’t be
selling her saloon to anyone, let alone a man with a pretty, empty-headed
grin…but then, she reckons that grin just might be a lie, and a man of
intelligence and cunning resides beneath.
Rupert
Llewellyn has another purpose for offering to buy the pretty widow’s saloon—the
coal buried deep in land she owns. However, he never banked on her knowing eyes
making him weak at the knees, or how his deception would burn upon his soul.
Each
determined to outwit the other, they tantalize and tease until passion
explodes. But can their desire bridge the lies told and trust broken?
Available NOW
Cassandra grew up daydreaming, inventing fantastical worlds and
marvelous adventures. Once she learned to read (First phrase – To the Beach.
True story), she was never without a book, reading of other people’s
fantastical worlds and marvelous adventures.
Fairy tales, Famous
Fives, fantasies and fancies; horror stories, gumshoe detectives, science
fiction; Cassandra read it all. Then she discovered Romance and a true passion
was born.
So, once upon a time,
after making a slight detour into the world of finance, Cassandra tried her
hand at writing. After a brief foray into horror, she couldn’t discount her true
passion. She started to write Romance and fell head over heels.
The love affair
exists to this very day.
Cassandra lives in
Adelaide, South Australia.
