Fantasy Romance for the Modern Girl
SHAPE OF HER HEART is an amazing story. Alicia Maddox brings this adventure to vivid life. I love the way the Peers were based on Regency times with its rigid structure, with the Clans being totally segregated. We have Quoi, a man brought up in a carefree manner and determined to help his friend. Then we have Jeroen, a woman very different from others of her class, but one who knows her duty to her family and determines to fulfill it. The villain in the story is a man truly easy to hate, taking advantage of his wealth and status to get whatever he wants—regardless of how many lives he ruins to get it. The world building in this story is excellent and I felt as if I was there with Quoi and Jeroen as they ran for their lives. This is a fantastic read and I hope Alicia Maddox plans another visit to this world. I highly recommend it.

I am also writing the sequel to "The Shape of Her Heart" which will be hopefully be titled "The Shape of Her Soul". I am so excited about this new plot line I'm working on. It's a goal of mine to always write a book with a twist that's interesting and new - striving to come up with something I haven't seen before. Which is a challenge because I have read a LOT of books. I'm very proud of this one and hope it will be
coming out in a year or so!

As I stated on the front page, I wrote a song! I was thinking about some of the things my books evoke in me and why I write them, and this is the result. It's just a demo with the unmistakable sound of my husband banging dishes around in the kitchen. :) Nevertheless, please check it out on the "Only You" Song and Lyrics page and let me know what you think!
