The War between the States is raging and Angelina Stone's world is falling apart. Her beloved father lies rotting in a Union prison and when her Georgia home is invaded by Yankee officers, Angelina knows she will never be the same again. Will Angelina be able to overcome her fears, lay prejudice aside, and learn to trust? When the stakes are high, will she risk losing everything? Only by doing so can she face the demons of her past and win the battle that rages in her own heart - a heart that is eternally tethered to . . . the enemy. "Angel and the Enemy" is an historical romance set against the backdrop of the Civil War where loves were lost and lives were changed. It was an era where men fought for freedom, independence, and unity. Yet, when the dust settled and the war was over the real battle raged on within the hearts of individuals. "Angel and the Enemy" captures the strength of the human spirit in overcoming adversity in a sweeping tale of love, honor, and betrayal. "Marnie Pehrson has a true gift for infusing her books with honor, hope, and love in all its world-altering glory. 'Angel and the Enemy' is a Southern charmer, a delectable novel not only for those who love romance and history, but for anyone who loves to read!" - Kerry Blair, author of "Ghost of a Chance" and "This Just In"

Marnie has been writing books since 1994, but she didn't branch into fiction until 2003. Largely influenced by her friend and colleague, Marcia Lynn McClure, Marnie took her first attempt at fiction with a story about one of her favorite ancestors. She pitched the idea for "The Patriot Wore Petticoats" to her distributor in June of 2003, and had the novel virtually finished by September. A labor of love, the story of Marnie's 4th Great Grandmother, Dicey Langston, came in flashes of inspiration that flowed into a story that is now required reading at Langston Charter Middle School in Greenville, SC.
Once Marnie dipped her toe into fiction, she never wanted to leave. Other Southern novels followed including "Waltzing with the Light," "Rebecca's Reveries," "Beyond the Waterfall," "Angel and the Enemy," "In Love We Trust / Second Sight," "An Uncertain Justice" and two titles in the Granite LoveNotes series, "Hannah's Heart" and "Savannah Nights."
Marnie is an avid enthusiast of family history. She integrates elements of the places, people and events of her Southern family and heritage into her historical fiction novels. Marnie's life is steeped in Southern history from the little town of Daisy that she grew up in (the setting for "Waltzing with the Light") to the 24 acres bordering the famous Chickamauga Battlefield upon which her family resides. The Chickamauga Battlefield inspired "Rebecca's Reveries," "In Love We Trust" and Marnie's BarnesAndNoble.com best-seller "Angel and the Enemy" (December 2006).
Marnie continues to write non-fiction inspirational as well - focusing on helping people live true to themselves and their divine purposes on this planet. Her latest nonfiction, "Trust Your Heart: Transform Your Ideas Into Income" became a #1 Amazon Mover and Shaker.
