I've mentioned before how it thrills me to bring to you a never-before-featured author into our spotlight.
Rohn Federbush is multi-published with a dozen or more books, and today she shares her latest novel, St. Joan's Architect with us!
A fledgling architect, Catherine Marksteiner's graduation trip to Mont- Saint-Michel includes a visit from St. Joan's ghost. Catherine is not sure who is rendering the intricate drawings but she's fallen in love with the island and wants to marry the artist who sketches her. He's already engaged, but his smitten cousin Romee is ready to offer his father's shipping fortune and Vatican connections as well as his hand in marriage.
Excerpt: Catherine’s Dream
Catherine looked closely at the gigantic
pink diamond ring on her left hand. Inside its intricate facets she could see
hanging gardens, festooned arches and blue butterflies floating within its
boundaries. Catherine settled softly down with a few of the butterflies to the
grassy floor of the dreamscape, where a young girl picked flowers for wreaths
and garlands to hang on the branches of a sacred beech tree. Sweet orisons
wafted through the air. Catherine recognized the gentle maid who became the
champion of France.
“Joan of Arc,” she called.
