Amelia by Felicia Rogers
The measure of a man is not what he’s worth, but rather what is in his heart…
Amelia Beaumont would like to capture Charles’ attention – and his affection. She’s fairly certain he returns her feelings. But for some reason he seems distant and uninterested, and even more so after he delivers a kiss she won’t soon forget.
Far from being indifferent to her, Charles yearns for Amelia in every way. But he’s hiding a secret, one that, should she discover it, will prove to her once and for all they can never be together. Because to his mind, love isn’t enough if he can’t provide for her the way she deserves.
Can Amelia reach through Charles’ barriers to show him that love is, indeed, all they need? And if she can’t, whatever will she do?

About the author:

She won the Celebrate the Season Contest by Solstice Publishing in Sept. 2010 allowing her first novella, “The Holiday Truce” to be published. Since then she has published more than fifteen novels and novellas.
What inspired you to write your book?
I was inspired to write this book after visiting several plantations in Louisiana. The opulence, the romance, and the history enthralled me.
Here is a short sample from the book:
Victor was slow to release her hand. Amelia hitched her skirts and hastened to the lit patio. No one enjoyed the night air, leaving her in peace. She leaned over the railing, closed her eyes, and took large gulps of air. Still, her heart beat rapidly against her chest, her hands shook, her stomach felt queasy, and her head pained.
Assured she was alone, she stomped the length of the patio and spoke aloud. “How dare he? Simple minded, indeed. I don’t know who he is used to dealing with but when I get a chance, I’m going to–”
“Enjoying your evening?” asked Charles.
The sudden interruption made her heart skip a beat. She twirled on her heel. Charles leaned against the stone railing, his legs crossed at the ankles, looking more handsome than ever.
She tried to rehash what she’d said, but her mind failed to work. Standing straighter, she tried to act calm. “I was.”
“Don’t tell me, my uncle opened his mouth and ruined everything.”
Amelia sighed and played with the folds of her gown.
“You know I didn’t get to tell you what I thought of your dress.”
She lifted her chin and looked at him. “No, you didn’t.”
“Would you like to know?”
“Yes,” she whispered, breathlessly.
As he spoke, he rose from his position and closed the gap between them. “Your dress reminds me of a spider web on a foggy morning. When the sun’s light hits the dew drops the gossamer shimmers like a pale rainbow.”
Amelia smiled.
“Combine that natural loveliness with your own, and nothing, and no one on earth can compare.”

Thrones of Desire is a place where lust and legend abound, and adventure, passion and danger entwine. Think mystical lands and creatures, kings and queens, knights and renegades, heroes and villains, warlords, maidens and princesses. Think battles and danger, honor and dishonor, good and evil. Most of all, think hearts filled with passion and secret desire. This is a place where romantic chivalry is alive and well, but so too is romantic wickedness. This is a place where the good do not always win, and the bad are often more captivating and desirable than their altruistic counterparts. In these lush and timeless landscapes, the battle for flesh can be as important as the battle for power. Intrigue, sorcery, revenge, lawlessness, dark secrets and mysterious elixirs; entanglements with supernatural beings — everything is possible in these magical mythical landscapes. Inspired by Game of Thrones these imaginative steamy tales transport the reader to fantastical realms. Featuring a special foreword from legendary fantasy author Piers Anthony.
