New Release Alert: Resisting the Royal Bodyguard

Happy August! I don’t know where the summer is going, but it’s sure slipping by fast. We spent the last weekend of July visiting family – which means lots of food, laughs, and one amazing sunset by the lake.

I’m working away on new historical fiction, but I’m still releasing a few romances in the meantime. On August 1, my novella RESISTING THE ROYAL BODYGUARD went live at Amazon for just 99 cents. It’s a novella in my Princes of Marazur series – a happy ending for Marco, who is now head of palace security. It’s a royalty-adjacent romance with a non-royal at the center. But readers (and this author!) have always had a soft spot for the bodyguard who was driving the car the night the crown princess was killed many years ago (and more on that storyline and the Navarro princes in the other two stories in the series!). Marco has so much survivor’s guilt, and he has a knack of seeing beneath the surface to the pain in others. That’s why when Hayley Walters returns to Marazur to make amends with her sister, Princess Rose, he believes that she genuinely is looking to repair their relationship and start again.

Until…

There’s always an until, isn’t there? And for the royal family, that means another scandal with Hayley at the center. And Marco must choose between his duty and his heart.

I hope you’ll enjoy this one – it’s a sweet little summer read, perfect for the beach or relaxing in the shade with something cool to drink. Or perhaps inside on a rainy day, curled up with a book to pass the time. You can grab it only on amazon at https://amzn.to/3OGAorz.

Enjoy. 🙂

 

Romance Alert: Free book until June 20

In addition to writing historical fiction, I also have had a fab career in the Romance genre! One of my books is on for FREE at Amazon until June 20. Check out SUMMER ON LOVERS’ ISLAND in my Jewell Cove series! Grab it here: https://amzn.to/3qObb4Y

A summer in Jewell Cove leads ER doctor Lizzie Howard to discover there’s more to life than living up to expectations in this small town romance by New York Times Bestselling Author, Donna Alward.

When Lizzie Howard’s best friend asks if she will cover her maternity leave in a small-town medical practice, Lizzie almost refuses. But with her career as a top ER doc in jeopardy and a failed relationship in her rear-view mirror, maybe a change of pace is exactly what she needs. It doesn’t matter how hot her boss is—Lizzie vows she’ll never date a co-worker again.
Josh Collins returned to Jewell Cove after his wife was killed on deployment. Now he runs the town’s medical clinic and puts up with his family’s meddling in his love life. The sexy new doctor is a complication, but she has no plans to stick around. That’s fine. If Josh falls in love again, he’ll do it at his own pace and on his own terms.

Then a trip to Lovers’ Island on a summer afternoon changes their relationship from summer fling to something deeper. But Josh doesn’t trust Lizzie to stay, and Lizzie can’t let go of her dream to return to her life-in-progress. When an opportunity arrives in the form of her old boss and lover, will she take it and leave Jewell Cove—and Josh—behind?
