"Romances for the Shy Girl in All of Us"

I'm a romance author of contemporaries and paranormals with a historical twist. Some of my favorite romances tend to involve time travel, so that's probably where I'm heading. My first book, "Love of My Heart," was published by The Wild Rose Press in June 2007. "A Sigh of Love" is due out in September 2007 with TWRP and "Caribbean Dreams of Love" has been contracted by TWRP. One of my dreams has always been to write and I'm living that dream now. In my past lives, I've been a substitute teacher, mental health therapist, a medical transcriptionist, a school bus driver, a U.S. Air Force noncomissioned officer, a college student, and a wayward and unruly teenager. I've lived in Montana, Idaho, Washington, Wyoming, California, Maryland, Washington, D.C., Alaska, Arizona, Belgium, Guam, Turkey, Venezuela and Aruba. I'm a gypsy by birth and can't seem to stop moving...always wondering what's just around

    Finally! My first contracted book is coming out in digital release from The Wild Rose Press at www.thewildrosepress.com and Fictionwise at www.fictionwise.com tomorrow, 2/2/08. In honor of the release, I'm holding a contest as follows!

    CONTEST: What Does the Handsome Native Alaskan Man Say in “A Sigh of Love?”

    To celebrate the digital release of my new contemporary romance set in Alaska, “A Sigh of Love,” I’m holding a contest! To enter, all you have to do is watch the book trailer for “A Sigh of Love” on my web site at www.bessmcbride.com and e-mail me at bessmcbride@gmail.com to tell me what the handsome Native Alaskan man says to the woman he meets on the airplane. The deadline is March 8, 2008. I’ll draw names, and two winners get a free download of the book. I hope you enjoy!

    As always, I look forward to hearing from you!

  • "On A Warm Sea of Love" is Contracted!!

    I'm pleased to announce that "On A Warm Sea of Love" has been contracted by The Wild Rose Press. This is the second novel I wrote and features a young widow and her happily married sister who embark on a Caribbean cruise. As they meet several handsome men-a romantic Scots ship's officer and a debonair Dutch entrepeneur, her sister tries to
    make a match, but our heroine balks at men--especially men who go out
    to sea as her husband was lost off an Alaskan fishing trawler many
    years before. She also has to contend with the fact that her dearly
    departed young husband, who hasn't yet managed to actually "depart,"
    has decided to accompany her on the cruise. While he provdes running
    commentary on the men, he struggles to let her go and makes it that
    much more difficult for our heroine to find new love with a real live man.

  • "A Train through Time" is contracted!

    "A Train through Time," the time travel I submitted was accepted by The Wild Rose Press. It will be part of their Vintage line, stories from the twentieth century. Yeah!!! I was sweating it. You never know. Like everyone else, I've had my fair share of rejections, even after I was published, so...like I said...you never know.

    I'm still plugging along on my romantic suspense. It's going well, but slow. I'm not sure why. I've never actually written a book in the town I currently live in, so maybe I'm hexing myself. Perhaps I should put it aside and wait till I'm off on my new summer adventure (wherever that is) before I write it.

    However, I'll continue plugging along to see how it works out!

    Good talking to you all. Keep in touch!
