I'm so happy to announce the release of my new novel, The Magic of Moonlight. This story is set in Regency England, but my heroine, Miss Charlotte Purcell, is not looking for a rich husband, although, being penniless, she could certainly use the security a match like that would offer. More than anything in the world, Charlotte wants to become a famous artist.
So when an old gypsy predicts that The Magic of Moonlight will unleash it's power on her at midnight, and Charlotte will see the face of her future husband in a mirror at midnight, Charlotte is unimpressed. Even when she sees the dashing Lord Knollton's face reflected next to hers, she doesn't believe in Magic. She believes in perseverance and hard work.
But The Magic of Moonlight believes in Charlotte, and she finds herself attracted to the handsome earl. Still, her passion to paint never wavers. Fighting her attraction to Lord Knollton, and against all odds, she sets out to pursue her goals. Moonlight, for Charlotte forgets that the second part of the Gypsy's prediction, which warns of terrible danger.
But dangers exist.
Why did I put these paranormal elements into a Regency set novel?
Okay, let me say right here that this is definitely not a paranormal story. It just has a few paranormal elements. But I put them in because I think life definitely has some paranormal aspects. Why do I believe that? I've had some things happen to me that were quite unexplainable.
A friend of mine predicted that I would marry a tall, fair-haired man who would be slightly younger than I was. Three months later, my husband asked me out. And yes, he is tall, with light hair, blue eyes, and he is two years younger than I.
I also had two very strange experiences, which I won't go into now, when I visited Scotland and England.
I don't think everything in life has a rational explanation.
Anyway, I hope you'll check out The Magic of Moonlight at www.fionaneal.com.
