Love's Destiny
Book 1
Elizabeth Meyette
Publisher: Crimson Romance
Genre: Historical
About the Book:
The simmering rebellion in the American colonies is the backdrop for this smoldering romance. When Jonathon Brentwood, captain of the Destiny and committed patriot, comes into the life of Emily Wentworth, a young English woman, divided loyalties and desire to honor a father’s dying wish cannot hold their passion at bay. But their pasts and the future of a young country stand in the way of their destiny.
Love’s Destiny is a compelling read. The characters are clearly drawn and complex, and the journey we’re taken on is rich in history, as well as insight. Pain, delight, understanding or lack thereof, attraction, sorrow, deceit, passion, evil, and of course, abiding love – it’s all there and wonderfully portrayed. Elizabeth Meyette did a terrific job painting an era and its stresses, while bringing together two people the reader comes to care about deeply. Well done.
About the Book:
As the Revolutionary War breaks out the story of Jonathon and Emily continues. Both face danger: Jonathon from the British who want to hang him for treason, and Emily from the woman whose love for Jonathon has driven her mad. While the impending birth of their baby is cause for celebration, threats from the British and from evil lurking at Brentwood Manor present obstacles to their love.

Our Review:
The heartwarming love story that began with Love’s Destiny continues its rich historical narrative in Love’s Spirit. Emily and Jonathan are a beautifully matched pair, and the tenderness they share is compelling . . . but can they overcome danger, conspiracy and evil at every turn?? This story is by turns soft and sweet, then heartbreakingly dangerous and fast-paced. It has something (quite a lot actually) for everyone, and shouldn’t be missed. Well done.

About the Author:
Poet, blogger and believer in dreams-come-true, Elizabeth Meyette’s journey has taken her through a career in education to a career in writing. Elizabeth put her first novel, Love’s Destiny on the shelf for 30 years while she taught English, Journalism and Library Science/Technology.
Upon retiring from teaching, she dusted off Love’s Destiny, polished it and submitted it to Crimson Romance, who published it in June 2012. Unlike her first novel, the sequel, Love’s Spirit took only seven months from inception to submission, and was published in April 2013.To coin a friend’s phrase, she didn’t retire, she “refired” and loves her second career as a writer. Her latest novel, The Cavanaugh House, is a mystery. She has also published poems and freelance articles. Elizabeth’s current projects include a play, a chapbook of poetry and children’s books.
Elizabeth and her husband Richard live in the Great Lakes Bay area of Michigan. They made an agreement that she cannot cook on writing days after he endured burnt broccoli and overcooked chicken. Fortunately, Richard is an excellent cook. Elizabeth becomes so absorbed in her writing, crying at the sorrows of her characters, rejoicing in their triumphs, that she laughingly describes herself as a “snapdragon” at interruptions, “not like the pretty flower, but like a dragon that snaps.”
