I can scarcely believe my last post was at Christmas.

No, that’s a lie. I can believe it–it’s just a tad embarrassing. But life has a habit of wedging its way into the best made plans. Still, I would be remiss if I didn’t share the news of my upcoming release.

The Midwife, the second book in the Pocket Watch Chronicles is available for pre-order on Amazon and will be released in a week on March 1, 2016.  It is a full-length, stand alone novel. It’s only relationship to The Pocket Watch is…well…thirteenth century Scotland, Gertrude and the pocket watch.

Can a twenty-first century independent woman find her true destiny, in thirteenth century Scotland?

At his father’s bidding, Cade MacKenzie begs a favor from Laird Macrae—Lady MacKenzie desperately needs the renowned Macrae midwife. Laird Macrae has no intention of sending his clan’s best, instead he passes off Elsie, a young woman with little experience, as the midwife they seek.

But fate—in the form of a mysterious older woman and an extraordinary pocket watch—steps in.

Elizabeth Quinn, a disillusioned obstetrician, is transported to the thirteenth century. She switched souls with Elsie as the old woman said she would but other things don’t go quite as expected. Perhaps most unexpected was falling in love.

Please note, The Midwife is a romance novel. It contains a mildly explicit description of a wedding night–think two shades rather than fifty. If you prefer either more or less steam you might be disappointed.
