HISTORY IS ABOUT TO
COME ALIVE FOR LILLY CHARLES.
BUT WILL HER HEART AWAKEN … IN TIME?
A doctoral candidate in history, Lilly Charles lives in a modern-day treasure trove of 1920s architecture—Manhattan’s St. Jean Apartments. The former hotel was once in the center of New York City’s jazz scene, and holds secrets Lilly is only beginning to discover.
A musical star in his own time, Brandon Crowley lived in an age of prohibition and gangsters, surrounded by the glamour of old Hollywood and the comfort of true friendships. As co-owner of the notorious speakeasy, The Blue Lute, he poured his life and love into his business—as a storm fueled by passion, liquor, murder and money was unleashed. And in the midst of it all, Brandon simply … disappeared.
When Lilly sees Brandon in a nearly 80-year-old photograph from the basement of the St. Jean, her reality comes undone. Could he be the same man she just saw arrested for breaking into the building? As Lilly is drawn deeper into the mysteries of Brandon’s life, a new storm of desire and danger begins to brew. Beneath the silvery moon and glitter of Times Square, an epic love story across the decades is about to unfold.

I want to say a special thank you to my accidental cousin, Christina Tetreault, for helping me tame this beast. And I don’t mean beast lightly at all. Before Christina read it this book was just about 800 pages long. It included a full scene of Brandon, our hero’s first day and a whole subplot involving a twisted cop who Lilly pays off to let Brandon out of jail. It was epic! But nothing in that story worked. The chemistry was off, the dialogue so over winded and scenes that never went anywhere. Thanks to Christina, she gave her time away from her own book and her family to help create the riveting story that you can pick up today. You’re the best accidental cousin ever! And once again…. AHHH!!!! Go read The Blue Lute – You won’t be disappointed!

ReplyDeleteI would want to visit in the 1800's but not live there. I like modern life too much to do without .

ReplyDeleteI've always been a big reader of historical romances, so if I could time travel it would probably be medieval or Edwardian period. But that's the beauty of reading--you can go to them all!
