Well it’s MONDAY ☹. The start
of a new week. So much to do, not enough
time. With that being said, I thought I’d
bring to your attention Wrath & Mercy (Sins of the Virtuous Book 5) a new release by Faye Hall that I’m intrigued by.
EXCERPT
Elina went quiet,
watching Fin’s attention return to the papers on the desk. She knew now wasn’t
the best time to bring up her own concerns. Still, he needed to know.
“My father told me we
leave for Australia as soon as he has our affairs in order.”
Fin looked up at Elina.
“He told me before the funeral that he thought it best to take you as far away
from here as possible. He believes what is being said about Ewan, and he
doesn’t want those he dealt with finding their way back to you.”
Elina lowered her gaze
to her lap. “Will you be coming with us?”
Silence surrounded
them. Lifting her gaze to him and seeing his stern expression, she felt her
heart sink.
“Archie has instructed
me to stay here in England a while longer to finalize the last few shipments.
It will be at least a few months before I can get my own passage to Australia.”
His words stabbed at
her heart. “I don’t want to leave you,” she uttered, her voice laced with
tears.
Getting up from his
seat, he walked around the desk. His hands going to her, he helped her to
stand. “I’ll join you as soon as I’m able. I promise.”
Her gaze held his as
fear filled her. What if this was the last time she’d ever see him? The mere
thought pained her.
“This isn’t goodbye,”
he told her, his hand going to her face, his fingers stroking her cheek. “I
won’t allow it to be.”
ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Faye Hall
spent her early years listening to stories about the families – including her
own – who settled townships in and around her hometown in North Queensland,
Australia. The local townspeople,
including her own parents, told her stories of corruption and slavery, along
with family secrets and forbidden love.
Desperate
to remember what she’d been told, along with her already growing love of
writing, Faye began to write about the history of her local area. Never could she have imagined the history of
her small home town in Australia would become a growing list of published
books.
Faye’s
passionate stories combine controversial subjects and provocative encounters as
her characters struggle to survive the lifestyle in early rural townships
throughout Australia. She explores
slavery and abortion, drug addiction and murder, as well as forbidden love and
passionate affairs of the heart.
When
she’d not writing, Faye enjoys sharing a bottle of wine with her husband in
their ever-growing garden, and encouraging the varied interests of their
combined family of nine children.
