I'm so excited! The upcoming third book my the 'Unbound Sea' trilogy, A Price Above Rubies, has just won the Legend Award Category of the Hearts Through History: Romance Through the Ages 2024 Contest! The Legend Award is given for the best character in a pre-publication historical romance, and was awarded for my lead character, Major Ashton DeWare!
This award means so much to me because I work so hard to create complex and memorable characters, and the judges for the Hearts Through History group in the Romance Writers of America are fellow authors and publishers.
