Book Description

Avalon Career Romance June 2002
With the whir of her camera shutter blending with the sound of her heart beating, Brooke focused on her most enigmatic subject to date. Marshall Anthony stood as regal and proud as the beautiful peregrine on his arm and his amazing greem eyes seemed to pierce her camera lens. She was certain she had found the perfect subject for award-winning photographs, but she was less certain about the man and his imperfections.

After an anxious search for his wayward falcon and a romantic sunset flight in his two-seater plane, Brooke found herself seeing the heart behind the rough exterior. There was something about the trust and compassion he held for his falcon that kept pulling her into his presence. Complicating matters, though, is her childhood buddy, Jeremy. Will she have to sacrifice her longest and closest friendship to find true love with Marshall? If she doesn't work something out soon, she may lose them both.

Rebecca K. O'Connor is an exotic animal trainer with a degree in creative writing. A falconer with a lifelong passion for birds and writing, she finds her inspiration hunting in the Southern California hills with a red-tailed hawk. She shares her home with an unruly collection of animals that she refuses to train and gets her best advice from Ty, an African gray parrot who insists he's a chicken hawk.

Falcon's Return is Rebecca's first novel for Avalon.

More About the Author

It would be safe to say that Rebecca enjoys animals. Although she no longer works at free flight bird shows, her three small parrots, Brittany, falcon and flock of pigeons keep her training skills honed and keep her entertained.

Living a life dedicated to "birds and words", Rebecca currently works as a Director of Development for Ducks Unlimited, where she raises awareness and funds for wetlands conservation. Her spare time is dedicated to falconry, parrots and book projects.

Rebecca's newest book is a falconry memoir, LIFT, a book about the first season with her first peregrine falcon, Anakin and their adventures hunting near the Salton Sea. It's a book about finding oneself and making amends with the past while seeking freedom in the shadow of a peregrine.

Rebecca hopes that her life's work will somehow help people understand their connection to animals and the earth and to relish it.

My parents being falocners, I could totally relate to this book! It brought back some of my better childhood memories, and was also a wonderfully romantic escape from my hectic life. Well writen, well thought out, and a delight to read!

5.0 out of 5 stars Falcon's Return by Rebecca K. O'Conner, July 9, 2002
By 
This review is from: Falcon's Return (Avalon Career Romance) (Hardcover)
If anyone is looking for a fabulous book read, I would suggest Falcon's Return. I fell in love with the character of Marshall and Brooke. Ms. O'Conner left me wishing that I could jump into the book and meet these characters. It was touching and you not only felt when they experienced sadness but when they were elated with joy. From the first page to the last, I didn't want to put the book down. Even the birds made the whole story a must read. I find myself still thinking of the characters even days after reading this fantastic book. I give it a five stars and two thumbs up. Believe me, read it, you will enjoy it.
