I’ve guest blogged on Sweethearts before, but since I’m new as
a member of the group, I’d like to introduce myself today. Born in San Francisco
and raised in Minnesota, I’ve lived in Texas for close to three decades, along
with my husband and an ever changing brood of cats. I’m a former fashion
illustrator and art instructor, but I began writing years ago as a hobby. This
hobby grew into an enduring love of historical research and the crafting of
passionate love stories based on that research.
In late 2010, I self-published DARLIN' DRUID, book one in my
Texas Druids trilogy, and a year later book two, DASHING DRUID. I’m currently
working on the third book, due to be released in early 2013. Now, you’re
probably wondering how Druids could possibly be in the Old West, right? It’s
simple really. I’ve love western romances and stories set in Ireland or among
Irish Americans. Combining the two was a no brainer. Eventually, when seeking to
add a paranormal element to my stories about a trio of siblings – children of
Irish immigrants – I decided to make them descendants of Irish Druids, each with
a different psychic gift. I don’t think this combination has been tried before.
Here’s part of what reviewer Todd Fonseca had to say about
Darlin’ Druid:
“I'll admit I was completely thrown by the title of this book. If for
some reason you are as well, "fuhgeddaboudit"! This is an engaging, page
turning, can't put it down, don't know where the time went, read. In fact, when
I received Horner's book I had already started Steig Larsson's "The Girl Who
Kicked the Hornet's Nest"; having finished the first two books in Larsson's
series I was anxious to complete the third. But I picked up Horner's book and
frankly the pace was so much faster and the book more engaging that I put best
selling Hornet aside in favor of finishing Horner's book.”
Did that make my day? You know it!
In addition to my novels, I’ve published a novella titled WHITE
WITCH – a prequel to the trilogy – and a memoir, SIX CATS IN MY KITCHEN.
