Welcome Lizzi
Tremayne, author of Hills
of Gold Unchanging, a new Romantic Suspense novel.About Lizzi Tremayne
Lizzi grew up riding wild in the Santa Cruz Mountain
redwoods, became an equine veterinarian at UC Davis and practiced in the
California Pony Express and Gold Country before emigrating to New Zealand. When
she’s not writing historical romantic suspense, veterinary nonfiction and
fiction (pending), Lizzi practices equine medicine, teaches, farms, rides and
drives horses, swings rapiers and shoots bows in medieval garb.With her first novel, Lizzi was awarded: Finalist 2013 RWNZ
Great Beginnings, Winner 2014 RWNZ Pacific Hearts Award, Winner 2015 RWNZ Koru
Award for Best First Novel plus third in Koru Long Novel section, and finalist
in the 2015 Best Indie Book Award.Why did you write
this book?Actually, I hadn’t intended to write it at all! I’d
completed A Long Trail Rolling, the first book in The Long Trails Series, and
was nearly finished writing A Sea of Green Unchanging, then the second book in
the series, during NaNoWriMo when two of my beta readers told me there was
another story to be written between the end of Book One and its epilogue.“No, there isn’t,” I said, with uncertainty.“Oh, yes, there is,” they both said.“Okay,” I finally agreed, thinking I’d simply
write a novella and get it out of the way…and them off my back.Kate and Matt, thank you. You were right and I was wrong.
The Hills of Gold Unchanging needed to be written, and so this short, stopgap
novel became the 170,000 words saga it is now.What is your favorite
genre to read?Historical Romantic Suspense. I was hooked on the genre
early on when I read my first Mary Stewart novel, Airs Above the Ground.Who is your favorite
character from fiction (not including your own)?That would have to be Vanessa March, the heroine in Airs
Above the Ground. She is a classy, feisty veterinarian with real heart. I seem
to see her in most of my heroines!What are you working
on at the moment, and will see from you in coming months?I am finally getting to finish A Sea of Green Unfolding! In
the story, tragedy strikes in Aleksandra and Xavier’s newly-found paradise on
their California Rancho de las Pulgas. Von Tempsky invites them on a journey to
a new life in peaceful New Zealand, but change is in the wind. When they reach
Aotearoa, they disembark into a turbulent wilderness—where the wars between the
European settlers and the local Māori have only just begun. It will be released
1 May 2017 and is available for preorder on the regular
sites.Please tell us about
your latest book.In this sequel to A Long Trail Rolling, Aleksandra and
Xavier’s saga continues over the Utah Pony Express Trail, through the mining
camps of 1860’s Nevada and California, the Sacramento floods and Old San Fran
to Xavier’s family hacienda, the Californio Rancho de las Pulgas. As the Civil
War rages, secessionists menace California. Embroiled in the Confederates’
fight to drag the new state from the Union and make it their own, can Aleks and
Xavier survive? The secessionists mean business. No one will stand in their
way—and live.About the BookTitle A Sea

Her First Knight @liviaquinn #RLFblog #military #romance
What if everything you worked for and the lives of countless
veterans could be affected by one night of folly…Ridge Romano is a billionaire inventor, military contractor
and the CEO of two multi-billion dollar companies. And he’s on a mission for
vets. With a laser focus on his priorities, how did he wind up on a stage
between two cover models with a hundred women crying, “Tucker, take it off”?
He’d pay for this… somehow.Buffy’s face and body were recognizable worldwide but what
she was searching for was the face of her franchise. She’d come to D.C. to find
that face, interviewing cover models from around the world, and finally she’d
found her man. Tucker – the late arrival – had that je ne sais quoi that would make her talent agency and photography
studio an immediate success. She had to have him.There was just one problem. He wasn’t a cover model and he said
he had more important priorities – veterans. Who was she to argue with such a
noble cause? The trouble was the Calloways always knew what they wanted and
Buffy wanted Tucker. Could this be the first time a Calloway was wrong?Buy Her First Knight

Once upon a time, Kristina Knight spent her days running
from car crash to fire to meetings with local police–no, she wasn’t a
troublemaker, she was a journalist. Her career took her all over the United
States, writing about everything from a serial killer’s capture to the National
Finals Rodeo. Along the way she found her very own Knight in Shining Cowboy
Boots and an abiding love for romance novels. Kristina writes contemporary
romance with a smattering of sass, sex and (of course) drama, and she loves
hearing from readers. And just like the characters from her favorite books, she’s
living her own happily ever after.Website http://www.kristinaknightauthor.com
