A Valentine's Gift: New Books

My new reads for Valentine's Day are not romance novels!

There are two nonfiction books: Literary Rogues and a memoir, Once Upon a Gypsy Moon, as well as the historical novel, Seven Locks. A contemporary mystery, A Cold and Lonely Place, is by the award winning writer, Sara J. Henry.





Click on the covers for details about the books. I won A Cold and Lonely Place from the author through a contest by Poe's Deadly Daughters.

What are you reading on Valentine's Day?

  1. I am reading a manuscript on this Valentine's Day :) I love, love the cover for "Seven Locks", one of the best I have ever seen I think.

    I have to read more about these books, because I do not know anything about any of them. Thank you so much for putting these books on my radar.

  2. Guy over at His Futile Preoccupations just reviews Literary Rouges. It sounds fantastic and hilarious. I look forward to your thought on it!

  3. It seems as though you've hit the jackpot this Valentines Day! Those are some really nice books. Today I'm reading Blackberry Winter (and pretending V-day is not really here!) lol

  5. These look great, especially Seven Locks. I am reading A White Wind Blew in paper, and in audio, I just started Indiscretion. They aren't romantic reads, but they are good ones!!

    Happy Valentine's Day to you!

  8. I'm reworking a manuscript: "The Nightingale's Song"....12 poems about a 17th century Japanese couple...an old samurai and his much younger wife!

    Lady Nyo...Happy Valentine's Day
