Feb 24, 2022 | Blog, Cover Reveal, Eliza Knight, February 2022




After a fight to the death to secure a vital military secret, Scottish lord Malcolm Gordon, codename Raven, races from Edinburgh to deliver the news to his superior in London. But before he arrives, he crosses paths with a lady’s bullet.
Miss Olivia Aston is horrified that she’s shot a man while hunting. Fortunately, he’s still alive. But what to do with the gravely wounded Highlander? Her father despises the Scotsโdespite his half-Scottish bloodโand will likely turn him out once he’s discovered. With this latest blunder, there is also the very real possibility that her father will permanently remove her from society as he did her sister. But she can’t simply leave him to die. Nor can she risk getting caught.
Malcolm awakens to discover that the information he carried has been stolen, and there’s no evidence of the culprit, other than a memory of her soft voice and bonny face. Time is running out. Despite his wound (mysteriously stitched), he must now hurry to get to the duke. By the time he reaches London, Malcolm learns the secrets he carried have already been compromised. Malcolm is charged with ferreting out the traitor amidst Edinburgh society. Begrudgingly, Malcolm is thrust into one soiree after another, only to come face to face with his beautiful, charming female assailant.
Will she shoot him again? Though he has no solid evidence against Lady Olivia, she is most certainly linked to the traitors. He could drag her from the ballroom, present her to the powers that be as a possible suspect, but instead, he takes the dangerous flirtation to the next level. There is something utterly alluring about a woman who holds a weapon as well as she dances. Malcolm’s determined to make Olivia swoon until she confesses everything–that is, until someone makes an attempt on both their lives. What started as a game of cat and mouse turns into a deadly adventure, revealing startling intelligence neither of them saw coming.

Jan 1, 2022 | 52 Week Reading Challenge, Blog, January 2022
Happy New Year.
May this new year be one filled with good health, kindess, laughter, and a tribe that you can lean on. Many of you have had a hard time the past year or so, while others are moving along at full speed. Whatever pace your driving, whatever path you’ve taken, hopefully our roads will intersect somewhere along the way.
As we being 2022 I’m curious to know what your traditions are? Do you set goals for yourself? Do you make resolutions? Do you just say, “this year I will…” and let it be so? This year, for the first time I didn’t come up with a word or a resolution. I also didn’t need to set a goal to lose weight or be healthy as I conquered that a few months ago. Instead, I plan to continue my wellness journey so I can maintain the thirty plus pounds that lost, and hope to never see again. I will continue to do my best to add more hours of sleep, move daily, and focus on self care more than just a few times a week.
If you’re one of many looking to live healthier and need a cheerleader, please add me to your team. I know how difficult it is to focus on wellness, and will be there to support you in whatever challenges you set out so you can achieve them however long it takes.ย Should you find it difficult to set a goal or challenge, there is plenty of time to organize and begin. I hope that whatever road you take we meet along the way through books and things that bring joy to your life.
If reading more is one of your goals or challenges, you’re in luck! I’m bringing back my 52 Week Reading Challenge and plan to post weekly in The Book Baristas facebook group. If you joined us a few years ago, consider taking the challenge again and sharing your book adventures along the way. This year there are no pre-selected weekly books so make your lists and get ready to read all the books! Everything you need is in this post. There are fifty two boxes to check off in whatever order you wish. I plan to post over in my facebook group The Book Baristas what I’m reading this week, so be on the lookout for that.
