Jencey's Corner

Thank you to St. Martin’s Press for a copy of The Fortune Hunter by Daisy Goodwin.   This novel is her second.   The first is The American Heiress .     The author opens with a letter about her fascination with Sisi or Elizabeth the Empress of Austria which the author makes comparisons to Princess Diana.   There are also other characters such as Charlotte Baird, her brother Fred and his fiancée Augusta Crewe, and Bay Middleton.   What is a fortune hunter? Synopsis:   Charlotte Baird is busy developing her pictures.   She is a photographer much to the chagrin of her brother Fred.   She is also an heiress of her mother’s Lennox Fortune.   But why is this so important?   It might be because of who she might meet.   Bay Middleton is a friend of Fred Baird.   He has just been brushed aside by his most recent lover.   Bay is also asked to be the pilot for the deposed queen of Naples.   He refuses but he might get another offer that he can’t refuse from the Empress of Austria

Welcome to this week's In My Mailbox post which I share the news of Writer's Corner.  Yesterday I got to visit with Susan Palmieri while she shared about The Witch of Belladonna Bay.   I was very excited to discuss publishing and learning more about what she writes.  I have to admit she makes it look easy.  I hope that she will come back and discuss more on Writer's Corner.   I am counting down the days this week to end of the week because two weeks from now I will be writing you once again from Myrtle Beach!  I hope to share some fun discoveries there as well! Let's get to the mail!  Dont' forget the  Kindle HDX giveaway currently ongoing.  The Prayer Box by Lisa Wingate From Phoebe Fox the Breakup Doctor Beach House Memories by Mary Alice Monroe We'll Always Have Paris by Jennifer Coburn The Witch of Belladonna Bay by Susan Palmieri The Girls of August by Anne R
