I'm thrilled to announce my fabulous agent has sold my darling Roman in a two book deal to Kate Seaver at Berkley Heat!
The books are scheduled for release in 2011.
Here's the scoop from Publisher's Marketplace:
And here's a slightly longer blurb!
As
Rome conquers Cymru, Centurion Maximus falls under the spell of
ethereal Druid princess, Carys. Charged by his Emperor to eliminate all
cursed Druids before they rise up against their new masters, Maximus is
unaware of her heritage and is determined to possess her and discover
where she and her kin are hiding from the might of the Eagle.
Despite
knowing he's the enemy of her people, Carys is fascinated by this
commanding foreign invader, a barbarian who displays unexpected honor,
and willingly meets him in secret to satisfy her desire for sexual
pleasures. But when Maximus captures her heart her loyalties are
twisted and freedom from Rome is no longer her single-minded obsession.
As
the summer solstice approaches Aeron, the High Druid and ex-lover of
Carys, gathers the dark gods to crush the enemy into oblivion, the
Druids into submission and Carys to his will. Maximus and Carys must
defeat the encroaching devastation, overcome the prejudice of their
warring gods and opposing cultures and find a way for their love to
survive.
Now I just have to write book two!!!
