About
My pen name is Sierra Rose under which I've published a full length paranormal romantic suspense novel, a short action novella, a poetry collection and a cookbook of family recipes.
I live in Eastern rural Ohio with my family, three spoiled cats and a semi-fierce Beagle. I've been writing since High School which has been longer than I like to recall.
Until I began my Celtic Evil series, my main writing genre has always been action/adventure. The Celtic Evil series is my first foray into the paranormal romantic suspense arena.
Roarke's tale, the first book, is available on Amazon.com in paperback and also Kindle. I have an e-book version on Smashwords as well and also through my storefront on Lulu.com.
More on my books, these fascinating characters and more can be found on my website.
Description
<p><span style="color:rgb(15,17,17);font-family:'Amazon Ember', Arial, sans-serif;font-size:14px;">Richard II found himself under siege not once, but twice in his minority. Crowned king at age ten, he was only fourteen when the Peasants' Revolt terrorized London. But he proved himself every bit the Plantagenet successor, facing Wat Tyler and the rebels when all seemed lost. Alas, his triumph was short-lived, and for the next ten years he struggled to assert himself against his uncles and increasingly hostile nobles. Just like in the days of his great-grandfather Edward II, vengeful magnates strove to separate him from his friends and advisors, and even threatened to depose him if he refused to do their bidding. The Lords Appellant, as they came to be known, purged the royal household with the help of the Merciless Parliament. They murdered his closest allies, leaving the King alone and defenseless. He would never forget his humiliation at the hands of his subjects. Richard's inability to protect his adherents would haunt him for the rest of his life, and he vowed that next time, retribution would be his.</span><br /><span class="a-text-bold" style="color:rgb(15,17,17);font-family:'Amazon Ember', Arial, sans-serif;font-size:14px;font-weight:700;">B.R.A.G.

Story Behind The Book
A short story that came to mind as I was planning new characters. Nick's an interesting guy before the events that introduce him and I certainly hope to explore of him and his friends.
