I'm still alive! :o)

Hello my fellow readers. I know you may fear that I have left permanently...moved away...or fell off the face of the Earth all together. Well, have no fear, other than being SO SO busy, I am alive and well and still writing!!

I am currently homeschooling my oldest daughter, teaching piano, working as an editor at the fabulous Wild Rose Press and finishing work on my full novels A MADNESS MOST SWEET, SOUTHERN FLAMES, PASSION'S DESTINY and A CINDERELLA LASS. You can read sections from all of them at my website www.kellyrenea.zoomshare.com

So I will leave you now my fellow readers with this final thought for the day....

Carpe Diem! Seize the day. Learn from the past, prepare for the future, BUT always live in the present for we are never promised a tomorrow.

Shelby’s First Day of School


Current mood: anxious
Category: Life

Shelby had her first day of Kindergarten yesterday. It went better for her than it did for me. She was happy and ready to stay and I didn't want to leave. She's at a new school and a new grade - I guess I'm just nervous. But she's not, thank goodness.

Fun at the Museum


Current mood: relaxed

Today proved to be a memorable day. I took the girls to the Macon Museum of Arts and Sciences to see the Dinosaur exhibit. They were excited and couldn't wait to go until we arrived and they heard all the noise coming from the robotic creatures. Both screamed and swore they would never enter. I finally persuaded my two youngest to see the robots, but the oldest firmly refused and stayed outside, telling them hi from a distance. Kids can be so funny.

In Memory Of A Great Lady

On Monday Morning, 12 am, my grandmother passed away. She was my biggest fan, and the only member of my family who has read my published novel all the way through. She was always my biggest fan. I dedicate this page in her memory. I will love you always, Granny 'R'.

A Day from the Old West

I got some more movies from Blockbuster today. I just love the Young Riders. It has been almost two decades since last I saw the show, but it never ceases to be good. Also, doing research on Pompeii today for my novel Passion's Desire. I just hope I will do the time period justice.Kelly

Another Full Day


I have been busy trying to recuporate from my sinus infection. The medicine is making me almost sicker than I was before I got it. I watched the American Idol - Idol gives back tonight. It was so emotional. I hate seeing children in situations like that. My Grandma is still ill - and losing her mind more by the day. Hopefully things will start looking up in the days to come.

Finally Back


I am so embarrassed. I claimed to be back about three months ago and then I just fell off again - my family got sick so much, especially the baby. It is amazing how busy ones life can be when she has three VERY active little girls. But I wouldn't change it for anything. I finally got the book to Harlequin and I hope they like it and will forgive the delay. Talk again later.

I'm back!

It has been a long, busy last couple of months. My baby has kept me so busy with one sickness or another. Finally, everyone is getting better. I have received a request from Harlequin for my novel A MADNESS MOST DISCREET. I will be sending it off tomorrow. Wish me luck. After tomorrow I will be on the web frequently again - as long as my girls stay healthy.
Smile!

My life in FAST FORWARD

My life has been so crazy lately. My little girl was born June 11, six weeks early, and ever since then my days have been one rollercoaster ride after another. I hope everything will be calming down soon though. But with one in school bringing home one sickness after another - and a 2 1/2 month old getting every single one of those bugs, I feel ready to pull all my hair out!! I did get some good news! My book was nominated for a reader choice award by Encarta Romance and I got another review which I am pasting below ...

Trusting a Dark Stranger

Aggie, an English lady and daughter of a duke, is trapped in a loveless engagement and is trying her best to find a way to get to America. She’s been promised to the loathsome and oily Viscount Hastings to help secure a higher social position for her family, but she longs only for freedom. When Aggie is accosted by an American cowboy in the street, she is torn between attraction and outrage.

Colt, a Texas sheriff, has just been dealt a blow that would have felled a lesser man. He found his errant wife, who’d been missing for a year, dead of consumption in a bed paid for by her titled lover. He swears revenge on the man who bedded his wife, and barges in on the titled pig of a man, his family, and his daughter’s intended, and proceeds to unveil all of his secrets, landing him in a cell....until Colt is rescued by the last person he expected to see. And she’s wanting to make him a deal.

Trusting a Dark Stranger is a madcap, rip-roaring ride! Author Kelly Renea spins a humorous and action-packed tale of betrayal, desire and a host of hilarious scrapes. Aggie is a woman bound by her upbringing who yearns to live the life she’s dreamed of; Colt is a man with a vow to avenge the insult done to him and he becomes unwillingly embroiled with the daughter of his nemesis. Neither of them want the passion that flares between them. He’s a bit of a Neanderthal and must overcome his distrust of women; she’s completely unconventional and has an odd habit of invoking barnyard animals in her cursing. It’s fun to watch these two circle around each other and their growing feelings for each other. All in all, Trusting a Dark Stranger is a very entertaining read.

HI

Hello All! Sorry I have been quiet for a while but I am about to deliver our third little girl any day now. We just have to make sure it is not too earlier - since she has been fitting to come for weeks now and I am currently only 32 weeks. But we are hoping for 2 weeks, praying for three, and would be shocked but grateful for more. Anyway, I will be in and out over the next few weeks until this is done. I will be checking in occasionally though. I also have good news and will post my second review of TRUSTING A DARK STRANGER.

Aggie, daughter of Lord Wentworth faces a decision. She either has to marry a very undesirable male or be banished to a convent. She sees one way out. An American she has met earlier could help her to escape and make her dream come true, to live as a cowgirl in America. Colt has only one thing on his mind, to avenge the death of his wife who had been Lord Wentworth’s mistress and he sees his chance through Aggie. They can’t deny the power of attraction between them and when Colt is called back home she gets aboard the ship he is travelling on. After many adventures, set backs and finally a reunion, Colt still is being stubborn. Will the man who Aggie was supposed to marry come between them? Can Colt put away his hatred of Aggie’s father? Can they reconcile and find true love?

This reviewer loved Aggie. She is forced to become a woman of her time, but inside she is much more adventurous. She can ride a horse, shoot a gun better than any man and speaks her mind. Colt is also a dream. They are perfect for each other. The interaction between the two makes the reader smile and sometimes want to slap them both over the head. This is a debut from Kelly Renea and it’s a powerful start to what is sure to be a great writing career. Ms Renea leads her reader through Victorian London, then over to America and each setting will have the reader thinking she is really there. This is a sensual read with lots of sexual tension between the hero and the heroine. There is also plenty of action and adventure that will keep the reader turning those pages. Thanks Ms Renea for a wonderful read.

My first review!

I got back my first review from www.ecataromance.com!
4.5 out of 5 stars!!!

Colt returns to London to search for his wife who disappeared a year ago. Unfortunately he finds her set up with a protector but dead from consumption. Upset, Colt leaves unsure what to do next. What he does not want to do is run over the young woman standing in the middle of the street. What he finally decides he does want to do is get revenge on the man who was his wife's protector. When he discovers who it is, he goes to the house. Startled to find the young woman there, he is overpowered and locked up in the cellar awaiting the magistrate. His rescue comes from an unlikely source, Agatha Wentworth, the young woman he met earlier and the daughter of his enemy. Aggie wants to escape an arranged marriage and goes to Colt with a proposition. She will help him escape if he will take her to America. Aggie has always wanted to go to America. She has spent her whole life preparing for the trip. She can rope, ride and shoot as well as the best. Now if she can just convince Colt to take her along. Deciding to trick her, Colt ties her up and escapes. The only problem is Aggie follows and circumstances force them to remain together through a series of unfortunate events. Colt is not sure what to think of Aggie. He alternately wants her for revenge and for himself. He needs to decide quickly or he may lose Aggie forever.

You can't help but fall in love with Aggie. In a time when women are still limited, Aggie lives her life as she sees fit. Definitely marching to her own drummer, Aggie is full of life and passion. Colt is a man betrayed, a man who could use some loyalty with his loving. Aggie is the one to give it to him but Colt has to be ready to accept it. Trusting a Dark Stranger unfolds beautifully with fun, poignancy and finally love. This is my first story by Kelly Renea, and I know it will not be my last. For anyone loves a feisty heroine, tender love and fun, Trusting a Dark Stranger is for you. Fantastic job for Kelly Renea. Reviewed by Elise
