    About this ebook

    An Arranged Marriage Romantasy

     

    Emperor Jahn of Columbyana needs a bride. Six suitable women are called to the capital city so he can make his choice, and the contest is underway. Unfortunately, someone doesn't want the candidates to reach the palace.

    Mourning the upcoming loss of his treasured freedom, Jahn disguises himself as a sentinel and sets out to collect one of the nearby bridal candidates. He finds himself escorting Morgana Ramsden, who steadfastly refuses to be paraded before the emperor for consideration.

    Morgana has secrets of her own; deep, dark secrets that if revealed could destroy her, as well as all those she loves.

    Linda Winstead Jones

    The first clue Linda had that she might like to write for a living came when she took a community education class in creative writing at the local high school. Taking classes was her hobby at the time, and creative writing came between yoga and French, or maybe between cake decorating and Chinese cooking. It was her first experience of meeting and working with other writers. She had always loved to read, and soon found that she loved writing. For years writing was just a hobby, one she sometimes attacked with a vengeance and then set aside for months at a time. When the time came to give completing a book a serious try, she was ready. Guardian Angel, a Western historical romance, was written at her kitchen table. Not long after she mailed it to a publisher, she discovered the local RWA chapter, Heart of Dixie, and joined. She knew right away that these were her people, and she hasn't wandered far since. Apparently unable to say no, she has served as conference chairman, president, luncheon chairman, and vice president. Easily bored, she soon deviated from historical romance into time travel, fairy-tale romance, and romantic suspense. When she's not writing, Linda can be found at hockey games (where she's a season ticket holder for the local team), a meeting of writers (a necessity and a joy that she will never give up), or doing the family thing with an ever-growing and wonderful family.
