My Pirate at Midnight by Jocelyn Vonne

Genre Historical Romance

Book heat level (based on movie ratings): Steamy

She’s an heiress celebrating her betrothal! He’s the most feared pirate on the seas! Settle in, destiny will take it from here…

Her ideal life is about to begin….

Julienne is a vivacious young heiress whose engagement is the talk of society. With the anticipation of entering into the enchanted world of matrimony, she is the envy of her social circle. She has meticulously planned out her blissful future, from the paintings that will grace the walls of her new home to the names of her two, soon to be acquired, puppies.

One situation she could never have planned for was abduction by the notorious pirate, Captain Austin, ruler of the seas!

Even more distressing than finding herself onboard a pirate ship, is the realization that the Captain is the same dashing “nobleman” she recently encountered at a social engagement.

And the same scoundrel who left her standing dazed in the moonlight after a passionate kiss!

As the winds of passion and fate whirl them into adventure, you can hear whispered wisdom, “The most valuable treasure of all….is a stolen heart.”

Yes!

Yes, Book Two – My Pirate’s Embrace will be out in January,

Lots and lots of sleep, mostly because I was so wrapped up in story I didn’t notice I was writing through the night. I wrote this book when I was 17. I am now 61 and just publishing it.

In later years I did research. Once there were computers! Yes, I wrote this originally with pencil and paper, and the first draft was over 1000 pages.

No. I mean, I took Spanish and French in high school. I can count to ten in three languages.

you grew up where you live now?

I live two roads over from the house I grew up in. The basement for my family home was dug the day I was born. I lived there until I met the guy down the road at 17 years old. We ended up buying his parent’s house and have lived here for the last 43 years. He is also my husband no longer just a guy down the road.

I grew up having a comprehension problem. I was diagnosed much later with adult ADD, which I image was the problem back then. But no I never liked to read because I would daydream throughout and have no idea what I just read.

I am always late. Always have been. Always will be, Read into it what you will.
