The third and final book of the SECRET'S OF THE BAYOUS TRILOGY is releasing January 25th!
I love this cover. It is EXACTLY as I pictured Rayna de la Roche in my mind. She wears that red dress in one of the scenes that drives Zach crazy. My characters have a tendency to write their own stories and most of them I love working with but Rayna was a challenge. She wasn't the typical heroine you'd find in a historical. All heroines are tough and smart or they wouldn't be heroines but Rayna was driven, demanding, and sometimes manipulating. But beneath her rugged exterior of all her touted experience was a vulnerable, love starved woman. Discovering that about her is what made her come alive in my mind and to words on the page.
His touch could destroy her…
Rayna de la Roche once lived a privileged life of a Spanish royal until her brother dragged her to America. In order to return to Spain, she must find a hidden treasure somewhere in New Orleans. She pairs up with a rugged American mercenary, whose mere touch unleashes her deepest desire.
Captain Zachary Nash has been accused of a murder he did no commit. On the run, he's hired to protect Rayna. As much as he wants her, Zach cannot hope to have her, for she sees him as a common criminal. But keeping his hands off of her while they hunt down the treasure my be his toughest task yet.
