2015 RONE Finalist - In'D Tales Magazine.  

Jocelyn Dunkirk is not your typical Victorian lady. She dresses in leather, wears goggles and is not afraid to get a little grease under her fingernails. Gentlemen avoid her like a dirty rivet.

Richard Windsor, the Prince of Wales, travels through time to claim Jocelyn's heart, but if it isn't one challenge, it's another. He determines to be a constant, steady presence in her life, hoping to prove he'd make a worthy husband.

Jocelyn's facing a bucket full of problems. The Prime Minister wants her to assist in ending a coal strike before it cripples the nation while her father attempts to recover from a serious injury. Will Jocelyn's dedication to her country and family ruin the one chance she has at love?  

BOOK TRAILER For Book 1, Victorian Scoundrel: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7IUYj2d7ZeY

ENJOY THIS EXCERPT: 

She swatted her hand next to her head like she was swatting a fly. Love could flitter away from her heart like a hummingbird for all she cared. Who needed it? Love hurt.

A knock rapped on the door, but before she could voice a reply, Richard walked in. He crossed the room, raw concern splayed over his face and he knelt before her. "What's wrong?"

"Nothing.""You look annoyed."

"A lady never cusses," she replied.

His lips tipped in amusement. "What else does a lady never do?"

"They never wear the same dress twice."

He pulled up a chair and sat in front of her. "I believe that." 

"And a lady never lies," she said.

He slid his hand over hers and laced their fingers together. A sweet jolt pulsed up her arm and she smiled despite herself. 

"So what's bothering you?" he asked.*****

About this excerpt:  The conversation continues...

ENJOY THIS SNIPPET: 

Richard pursed his lips. "One should never be punished for falling in love."

"No, but love is complicated."

"Are you talking about us?" he asked.

She frowned. "There is no us. I told you, I won't leave my father." 

He stood and placed his hands on his hips, his blue eyes darkening to a deep sapphire. "I would do anything for you."

BLURB: 

Jocelyn Dunkirk is not your typical Victorian lady. She dresses in leather, wears goggles and is not afraid to get a little grease under her fingernails. Gentlemen avoid her like a dirty rivet.

Richard Windsor, the Prince of Wales, travels through time to claim Jocelyn's heart, but if it isn't one challenge, it's another. He determines to be a constant, steady presence in her life, hoping to prove he'd make a worthy husband.

About this excerpt:  Richard and Jocelyn continue their conversation about family.

ENJOY THIS SNIPPET: 

"I have a family I never realized existed. I always wanted there to be more in my family than just my father and I, but I didn't want to meet them under these circumstances."

"I suppose every family has a secret or two, in a closet."

"But there didn't have to be a secret. What did my aunt do wrong? Fall in love? For that my grandfather disowned her. That's ridiculous and it caused a rift between her and my father that didn't need to be there."

BLURB: 

Jocelyn Dunkirk is not your typical Victorian lady. She dresses in leather, wears goggles and is not afraid to get a little grease under her fingernails. Gentlemen avoid her like a dirty rivet.

About this excerpt:  Richard gets to the heart of what's bothering Jocelyn.

ENJOY THIS SNIPPET: 

 She turned to face Richard and drew in a breath.

"My father's lawyer is traveling to Nottingham. He's probably already there. He's supposed to find my cousin, a man I had no idea existed, named Augustus Darling to advise him he's the heir to my father's title and ancestral estates."

"How can that be?" Surprise resonated in his voice.

Jocelyn explained to Richard what her father had told her about how the title and land had to pass to a male heir.

"I'm sorry," Richard said. 

BLURB: 

Jocelyn Dunkirk is not your typical Victorian lady. She dresses in leather, wears goggles and is not afraid to get a little grease under her fingernails. Gentlemen avoid her like a dirty rivet.

Hi all, I'm participating in the Weekend Warriors Snippet Sunday. This month, I'll be taking snippets from my steampunk romance, A Lady Never Lies. You can find the Weekend Warriors Snippet Sunday list at:

About this excerpt:  Richard tries to get to the "heart" of the matter. Picks up right after where last week left off.

ENJOY THIS SNIPPET: 

He slid his hand over hers and laced their fingers together. A sweet jolt pulsed up her arm and she smiled despite herself.

"So what's bothering you?" he asked.

She sighed and glanced toward the window, her heart at war. To his credit, he remained quiet, waiting for her.

Jocelyn appreciated his patience and his quiet support in this moment. She needed to talk to someone and Richard had always been a good listener. She recalled the previous occasions with him in Lincoln, just talking and it infused her soul with a confidence and hope she hadn't felt in days. 

BLURB:

MEET MY CHARACTER BLOG TOUR @KMNbooks

I owe many thanks to fabulous writer Karen Michelle Nutt for including me in this fun blog tour. 
First I’d like to introduce you lovely readers to Karen then will move on to my character Jocelyn.

Her bio reads: 

Karen Michelle Nutt resides in California with her husband, three fascinating children, and houseful of demanding pets. Jack, her Chorkie, is her writing buddy and sits long hours with her at the computer.

When she’s not time traveling, fighting outlaws, or otherworldly creatures, she creates pre-made book covers to order at Gillian’s Book Covers, “Judge Your Book By Its Cover”. You can also check out her published cover art designs at Western Trail Blazer and Rebecca J. Vickery Publishing.

Whether your reading fancy is paranormal, historical or time travel, all her stories capture the rich array of emotions that accompany the most fabulous human phenomena—falling in love.

Please visit Karen at her blog at: http://kmnbooks.blogspot.com

Now let's meet the Character from my A Lady Never Lies, Jocelyn Dunkirk.

What is the name of your character? Is he/she fictional or a historic person?
Jocelyn is Lady Jocelyn Ridgecroft. Her family name is Dunkirk.  She is a fictional person.

Nina Dobrev inspiration for Jocelyn

When and where is the story set?
The story is set in 1855 England. 

What should we know about him/her?
She's an inventor. She'd rather work with dirty rivets than knit.  She scoffs at the ton. 

What messes up his/her life?

Richard Windsor. He steps into her life from the future and gives her a ring.  Unfortunately, the ring explodes when her father is hurt and he is gravely injuried.

What is the main conflict? 

Jocelyn is torn. Should she follow her heart and Richard to the future or stay in the past with her father.  She really is needed in the past.

 

What is the personal goal of the character? 

To help others and her country.  She wants to build a better world where coal dust doesn't make people sick. She wants other people to be treated fairly and ultimately agrees to broker a mediation between the coal mine owners and workers.
