Review for The Gentle Wind's Caress.

Lovely review on Amazon for The Gentle Wind's Caress: Anne Brear writes authentic Victorian sagas which draw you into Victorian Yorkshire life. I didn't want to put this one down. Isabelle Gibson is buffeted by fate after her father leaves the family and her mother dies. She is left with a younger brother to care for. The private workhouse proves a lifeline, until the matron's son makes unwanted advances. The suggestion of an arranged marriage is welcome and Isabelle grabs it. But her husband…See More

"Hi Anne, I don't think it matters all that much, as you say: What's in a Name? When published before (no names no pack-drill 1990s) I not only penned historical and contemporary erotica, I      penned romantic mainstream…"

What's in a name?

Last year, my historical novel, The House of Women was released under the name of Anne Whitfield, like all of my previous books since I was first published in 2006.However, due to life changes, I've decided to use a new pen name for my novels. Some of my older works will remain under the Whitfield name, mainly my short stories and modern romances. But my historical novels will be released, or re-released, under the name of Anne Brear.A re-release is The House of Women, now under the name of…See More

About me
I write under two pen names, Anne Brear and Anne Whitfield.
I've been writing since 1997 and have been an avid reader for a lot longer.
A love of reading fiction started at an early age.
While researching for my hobby, genealogy, I began to write my first novel, a historical and the stories that had been company in my head for years, suddenly became real on the page.
I'm a writer of two genres - historical women's fiction and modern romance.
I consider myself a storyteller. If I can entertain readers for any length of time then I'm happy.
I'm also active within the writing and reader community. I'm a member of Romance Writers Australia and Romance Novelists Association UK.
And I'm always happy to hear from readers.

The House of Women

 It's just one more month until my new historical, The House of Women, is released!

Blurb

Leeds. 1870. Lonely and brokenhearted, Grace Woodruff fights for her sisters’ rights to happiness while sacrificing any chance for her own.

 The eldest of seven daughters, Grace is the core of strength around which the unhappy members of the Woodruff family revolve. As her disenchanted mother withdraws to her rooms, Grace must act as a buffer between her violent, ambitious father and the sisters who depend upon her. Rejected by her first love and facing a spinster’s future, she struggles to hold the broken family together through her father’s infidelity, one sister’s alcoholism, and another’s out-of-wedlock pregnancy by an unsuitable match.

 Caring for an illegitimate half-brother affords Grace an escape, though short-lived. Forced home by illness and burdened with dwindling finances, Grace faces fresh anguish –and murder– when her first love returns to wreck havoc in her life.  All is not lost, however. In the midst of tragedy, the fires of her heart are rekindled by another. Will the possibility of true love lead Grace to relinquish her responsibilities in the house of women and embrace her own right to happiness?

 

Available for pre order from Amazon UK

Hiya, lovely to see you here Anne. Ah I see you put the blurb on your own page rather than the 'New Books' one. I'll see if I can change that.  I've been keeping an eye on KR too!
