Relive the birth of a new country as three women battle to know who they can entrust their hearts. Raelene is all alone, but is there peace in following the wishes of her dead father?

More About the Author

Amber Stockton began her publishing career as Amber Miller, using her middle and maiden names. Now, she publishes under her married name. Her first is Tiffany, and most people call her Tiff. She married the love of her life in July 2007 and lives in beautiful Colorado with her husband, their daughter born April 2009 and their Australian Shepherd/Flat-haired Retriever mix, Roxie.

Her first book, Promises, Promises, released in February 2008. It's part of a series set in Delaware during the Colonial period. They were repackaged for a state set entitled Liberty's Promise (March 2010). She has also sold another series set in historical Michigan during the Industrial Revolution. Those released in 2009 and will be repackaged as Michigan Brides (December 2010).

She firmly believes a good book can take you away from your present reality into a world you've never seen. With a passion for history, her books take you back to the worlds that once were and give you a slice of life amidst the adventures of her characters.

She got involved with web design in 1997, when she was asked to take over running the official web site for the television series Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman. That eventually led to a series of negotiations where she was offered the job of running world-renowned actress Jane Seymour's official fan site. Now, with over 50 clients, she and her husband run the design and consulting business of Eagle Designs!

Some other tidbits: she was once the only living female Miller in her family; she is related to former President Woodrow Wilson through her great-grandfather's sister; she's traveled to 41 of the 50 U.S. states and collects playing cards from all of her travels; and she once recorded a CD with a 100+ member choir.

She loves to hear from her readers. Feel free to begin a discussion below or check out her author site and leave feedback there.

5.0 out of 5 stars Three-In-ONe Collection reflects early American history, May 11, 2010
This review is from: Liberty's Promise (Romancing America: Delaware) (Paperback)
This three-in-one collection captures the flavor of our American heritage. Set in the 1700's, it follows the lives of three generations of women during an era when a woman had little right to express an opinion about the political issues of the times.

The first story, Promises, Promises, takes place in 1739 and features Raelene who, left alone after her parents' tragic death, struggles to trust God again. She resents Gustav, the man her father assigned to help her, fearful that his assistance is offered out of obligation rather than love. Raelene seeks a marriage partner to satisfy the terms of her father's will. Only after she sets her pride aside does Raelene truly learn of God's plan for her life.

Next is Quills and Promises, with Raelene's daughter, Elanna, as the heroine. She is attracted to a Major during the French and Indian War. While he is away fighting, Elanna prays for his safety and awaits his letters. Her feelings for him are tested when she hears disturbing reports of possible unethical behavior on his part.

Deceptive Promises completes the collection. Elanna's daughter, Margaret, is attracted to a British soldier during America's fight for independence. The question of which side he is on is in question as the colonies rebel, and Margaret finds herself wondering whether his declaration of love is trustworthy or deceptive.

The author presents strong, goal-directed characters whose stories take the reader on a journey through some of the most dangerous and tumultuous times in American history. The presentation of historical facts adds depth and substance to theses three novels.

If you enjoy realistic American history fiction, you will love Liberty's Promise.
