Available for Pre-Order!

For release on June 17, Highland Warrior is now available for pre-order. I'm so excited!

 In the wild Scottish Highlands, blood feuds rule the land…and love may cost everything.

Warrior Dougal MacDougall has seen too much death. Haunted after slaying his former friend in battle, he believes nothing good could ever come from the endless war between the clans—until he discovers a beautiful young woman alone among the carnage.

She remembers nothing.
Not her name.
Not her past.
Only the fierce Highland warrior who carries her to safety.

Calling her Kate, Dougal vows to protect the mysterious woman who has captured his heart. As peace negotiations begin between the warring clans, Dougal dreams of leaving violence behind to build a future with the woman he loves. But danger still lurks within the castle walls.

Jealousy, betrayal, and secrets threaten to destroy the fragile peace—and when Kate is struck down by a deadly poison on the very night of their wedding celebration, Dougal must risk everything to save her life.

As old enemies circle and the shadows of Kate’s forgotten past remain hidden, one thing becomes clear:

A Highland warrior will stop at nothing to protect the woman he loves.

From Ellie Lynn comes a sweeping tale of passion, loyalty, and unforgettable Highland love.

Coming Soon!

 Oh my, it's been a minute, hasn't it? But while I was navigating life, work, and other modern day monstrocities, I was quietly putting together a new story. 

After the success of Beyond the Moors, I got a little excited about the prospect of creating another Highland story. But don't worry! My love of the western romance has not died. I've got something in the works there too.  However, if you read Beyond the Moors, you may have wondered about Dougal, Richard's second in command and another rather sexy highland warrior. Doesn't he deserve his own happy ending? 

Well let me tell you.... 

Isn't he dreamy? Oh my, Kate is the luckiest woman! And I cannna wait to share their story with ye! 

New Release! A Cowboy's Promise

 

I am so excited to share A Cowboy's Promise, which is now available and working its way through the online stores as we speak! I've really struggled in the last few months, what with work and stuff. Finding the time has been my biggest issue, but once things started moving again, it moved fast! So coming VERY soon, to a store near you. I'll update the book page with buy links once I've got them all. 

Here's the blurb:

Sarah has been struggling to maintain her ranch on her own since the death of her husband. Despite her fierce determination, she's overwhelmed with the daily tasks necessary to keep the ranch running smoothly. Enter Casey Reed, a tall and rugged cowboy with a mysterious past. At first, Sarah is wary of him, but as they work side by side, a deep friendship develops. Sarah finds solace in opening up to Casey about her struggles, and he proves to be a loyal companion.

Casey himself is guarded, but as he spends more time with Sarah, he begins to let his guard down. They share stories of their pasts and their dreams for the future. As they grow closer, they begin to feel something more than friendship.

However, running a ranch is no easy feat. While Casey deals with the demons from his past, Sarah struggles to keep her ranch out of the hands of a ruthless landowner.   Just when they think they're finally clear of all their obstacles, a lawman from Texas shows up looking for Casey. Will their love be torn apart or will they find a way to keep it together once and for all?

New Work In Progress!

So, you probably might have noticed, but I haven't written anything new in a while. Quite a while. It's been tough, what with the pandemic going on, etc. I'm a nurse in my other life so I got really burned out. Sitting in front of a computer was the last thing I wanted to do when I got home. 

Now that COVID is essentially behind us (yes, I know it's never going to be completely gone, but let me have my delusion), I've had a chance to take care of ME for a change. I'm eating better, getting more sleep, and getting a wee bit more exercise too! This summer, I'm spending more time in the garden, and playing with my pooches. And then it happened.

In the last few weeks, my eyes have been drawn to some of my old research books, notes and photos. That itch, that spark that had faded into what I thought was oblivion, has reignited. 

I am excited to report that I've written 8 chapters of my next historical western romance and I'm still going strong! It's set in Wyoming, and tentatively called A Cowboy's Promise. I even have artwork ready to go. I'm really very pleased and excited. 

If all goes well, I'll have it finished in the next month, and ready for release by fall. 

I'll keep you posted!

Until next time, 

Ellie 

Western Romances Rule!

Since beginning work on Under A Calico Moon, which is the sequel/companion book to New Prints in Old Calico, I've really re-discovered my love of the era. Now I realize that what I'm writing is a bit more of a 'romanticized' version of reality, but heck, isn't that what I'm supposed to do? Manly men who love and protect their womanfolk with every breath in their bodies, and women who love their men just as much. And what's wrong with a handsome cowboy rushing to the rescue anyway? Not a darn thing.

The other night an old western came on, that I hadn't seen in years. Pale Rider, which stars Clint Eastwood. Granted, it's not your typical western romance, but it sure has a lot of action! I ended up staying up until 2 am to finish it, which is completely unlike me. I'm an 'in bed, lights out by 11:30' kinda gal. If I even make it to 11:30! So while I was watching the movie, an idea for another novella came to me, and I quickly plotted it out, using the beginnings of an old story I found on an old computer of mine. It's not a long story, should come in around 20k or so for word count, but I like it so far.

I'm calling it Wyoming Wild. I was hoping to have it finished by March 19, because I've got a great Bookbub promotion started that day for New Prints in Old Calico, but unfortunately, it's very doubtful it will be ready on time. It won't be long though. I haven't written the tagline or blurb yet, but it's going to sound something like: "After Cora's husband abandons her and their infant child in the wilds of Wyoming, she wonders if she'll be able to cope, much less ever find love again."

That's all I have so far, and I kind of like it. I think I might keep it.
