However, today I discovered I'm a Number 1 best selling author on Amazon UK in two categories - with my dual-time novel, The Highland Lass! I'm excited, surprised and delighted as this has always been the 'book of my heart' and it has been steadily gaining great 5 star reviews before today. My publisher, Crooked Cat, has been so supportive and you can read more about the publishers through Sally Quillford's interview with Crooked Cat on the RNA blog.
As I'm enjoying it while I can, I thought I'd post the blurb on here today as it's still on the special promotion of 99p on Amazon UK and 99c (or around that) on Amazon US for a very limited time!
The Highland Lass
Eilidh Campbell returns to her Scottish roots from
America with one main aim: to discover the identity of her real father. But her
mother’s past in Inverclyde is a mystery with family secrets, a book of Robert
Burns’ poems with a hidden letter and a photograph link to the Holy Loch at
Dunoon when the American Navy were in residence.
Staying with her childhood friend, Kirsty, while
searching for answers, Eilidh begins to fall in love with handsome Scot Lewis
Grant, but just how free is he? Together they trace the story of Highland Mary
and Robert Burns, with its echoes to her mother’s story. In short alternate
chapters, Highland Mary tells her own story from 1785-6. From Dunoon, to
Ayrshire and culminating in Greenock, Eilidh finds the past is closer than she
realises.

Huge congratulations, Rosemary! I love the sound of your book and will have to buy it right now. x
Congratulations, Rosemary! That's a great achievement.
How lovely, Debs - thank you very much!
Thanks, Patsy - it may well be a one-off occurrence!
Well done, Rosemary. How was Edinburgh? Chilly, I bet.
Thanks, Julia. Edinburgh was lovely as always but unbelievably, it was raining and it wasn't at home! We're more used to that in the west of the country, but it wasn't too cold.
Well deserved Rosemary!
That's wonderful, Rosemary. Very well done.
Thank you, Maria - that's kind of you!
Many thanks, Frances - as I said, it doesn't last!
Congratulations, Rosemary. It's been on My Kindle a few weeks now . . . I REALLY must get to it soon! :)
Wow! Number 1 in two categories! Well done and well deserved.
Great news, Rosemary! You must be thrilled. Well done. x
Thanks so much for buying it, Helen! Don't worry, my TBR list is huge.
Many thanks, Wendy!
Thanks, Joanne - I certainly am but it's a fleeting boost!
