Enough action for a man. Enough passion for a woman. Enough intrigue for everyone. Dunnottar Castle, Scotland, the domain of the Clan Keith, close consorts of the royal family for many generations. The whole country is at war with itself: Scotland against England. William Keith, the patriarch, is the wealthiest man in Scotland, but he desires only to be known as the kindest; John, his younger brother, is eager to fight for his country, even if his motives are a little questionable; and Robert, Williams oldest son, is off to battle, but his mothers only hope is that he finds a wife in the process. Even the most seemingly righteous families have some deep, dark hidden secrets. The Keith clan is no exception; some of them so deep and dark even the other Keith's don't know they exist. But they are privy to secrets of King Charles II himself.
Janet Elaine Smith has been a successful, well-known magazine writer for over 30 years. She now has 21 successful books published, in 6 genres, which all reveal her delightful sense of humor. She also has e non-fiction books available: Promo Paks (marketing tips for authors), Rebel With a Cause her memoirs), and The Flood of the Millennium (her role in the devastating flood in Grand Forks ND in 1997).
After losing her husband, Ivan, of 42 years, she moved to Northeast Wisconsin, where she is pursuing not only her writing, but has become a popular inspirational speaker throughout the area.
On of the most fun things she has discovered is that John Grisham seems to be writing her life in his books, as she details on her website.
She travels the world in her novels, and you can find almost anything in them--romance, intrigue, mystery, adventure, humor--but you will never find one that doesn't have a happily-ever-after ending.
Janet admits that her favorite book is A Christmas Dream, which she says "Makes you feel warm and fuzzy--from the inside out." Her favorite characters are Patrick and Grace, from their own mystery series.
She loves hearing from her readers, but they keep asking for her minor characters to have a book of their own. There are only so many hours in a day! But hey, a gal's gotta do what a gal's gotta do, so she's working on them! If you have a favorite minor character of your own from one of her books, please let her know who it is.
She has at least another 100 books in her head, so don't worry--there's more to come!
