Hello Friends! Linda Weaver Clarke is sharing about her books today and I hope that if you haven't read her books that you will definitely give them a try! They are sweet, clean and wonderful!
I believe it’s
never too late to accomplish one’s dreams. Some people have a bucket list that
has daring things to do or something they longed to do for years. It is never
too late and you are never too old to do something you have longed to do.
After raising six daughters and believing it is never too late to dream, I decided to go back to college. It was a scary thing to do and I don’t know why I was so worried. At the age of 50, I graduated from college with a Theatre and Arts Degree. After that, I performed for a concert series. It was unbelievably fun and enjoyable until I got reflux and lost my voice. Feeling discouraged, I didn’t know what to do with my life. But . . . when one door is closed, God opens another door for you to walk through. And that was exactly what He did for me.
An interest in writing engulfed me. So I went to the library and studied every book available about writing. I wanted to write family friendly stories for all ages. So I sat down and wrote a few books until I was brave enough to send one to a publisher. At the age of 56, I became a published author and won an award for my first book, which surprised and delighted me. After writing five historical romances, I wrote 12 cozy mysteries and then wrote three swashbuckling romances. Since I was a fan of Robin Hood, Zorro, and the Scarlet Pimpernel, I couldn’t help it. I even wrote some non-fiction and a children’s book. Being an author has been an interesting path to travel. The most recent series that I just completed is a historical mystery romance series set in the 1830s. It is called A Willow Valley Historical Romance. Each romance has a mystery to solve.
One Last Dance is the first book in this series, which
will keep you guessing until the end of the book. When Felicity meets their
charming new neighbor, she soon discovers that he is hiding his true identity.
Nicholas Adams is on a quest. When she finds out that someone is after a
valuable heirloom, a precious treasure found in her attic, her life takes a new
turn.
Book trailer:
Angel’s Serenade is the second book in this series. Each day as Emmeline practices the piano, she doesn’t know the new doctor in town secretly sits on his porch to listen to her music. As Emmeline gets to know the charming doctor, they become intrigued by her neighbor’s mysterious behavior. Will they discover his secret? And who is the leader of the River Pirates, who is causing so much havoc?
“This
book contains six short stories of different holidays celebrated in the 1840
time period. These are enjoyable stories to read any time of year, not just in
holiday times. The characters and the book carry Christian values, which I
love. These are very entertaining stories!”

I soon realized
that writing short stories was a pleasure and quite fun. So I decided to try it
once again. So I wrote the fifth and last book in this series called Tales of Willow Valley. It is a collection
of five “Love Stories.”
“If you are in the mood for some sweet, clean, historical, romantic short stories then look no further. I enjoyed each story and how the women are not sitting back waiting on a man, but are take-charge women that start their own businesses, aren’t afraid to face ruffians, and encourage women to fight for their rights. It is amazing what you can learn when an author does research into events in the past to make sure their works are as authentic as possible.” –Story Book Reviews
