DeleteHere are my three historical romance picks:
ReplyDelete1. Summer on Sunset Ridge
by Sharlene MacLaren
Releases January 10th 2017
melodybissonnette AT gmail DOT com
2. My Heart Belongs in Fort Bliss, Texas: Priscilla’s Reveille
ReplyDeleteby Erica Vetsch
Releases January 1st 2017
melodybissonnette AT gmail DOT com
3. The Mark of the King
ReplyDeleteby Jocelyn Green
Releases January 3rd 2017
melodybissonnette AT gmail DOT com
Oh wow -- I was just thinking about Sharlene MacLaren the other day. I read a depression era series by her that I just loved and I was thinking I needed to hunt down more by her and here you are telling me she has a new release coming out. And does it ever sound good. Underground railroad is a real interest to me. Good luck, Melody.
DeleteA Note Yet Unsung by Tamera Alexander sounds wonderful! Releases in Feb 2017.

DeleteElly, I was counting on you to add Melanie Dickerson's newest to the list! Surprised she wasn't mentioned before now. I'm looking forward to that one too. Just got my own copy of Songbird and will be reading it soon. Good luck!
DeleteFor some reason I was thinking Melanie's book was out after the mentioned dates! I saw it too but didn't pay attention to the release date I guess :-) I have her first one "A Spy's Devotion" so the second one is definitely on my purchase list!
DeleteThere are so many good historical romance books coming in early 2017; it's hard to choose just three, but I'll try.
