Civil War Novel Receives 4 ½ Stars from Romantic Times

Joining the ranks of powerhouse romance writers such as P.C. Cast, Karen Weisner, Brenda Coulter, and Kate Donovan, Diane Wylie’s debut novel with Vintage Romance Publishing, Secrets and Sacrifices, recently received a coveted 4 ½ star review from Romantic Times, the premier magazine for romance readers.

In part, the Romantic Times reviewer had this to say about Diane’s Civil War romance, “This heartfelt drama delivers tension, passion, hope and fear. The heroine begins in the guise of a boy but grows into a passionate, caring woman who meets her soul mate after losing her husband. The research is meticulous, and a grand cast of characters leaps off the page. This is one for the keeper shelf.”

From the back cover copy of Secrets and Sacrifices which is available now from Vintage Romance Publishing: The slowly starving South, lack of medical supplies, and desperate runaway slaves motivate Charlie and Daniel to take risks beyond their wildest imaginations.

How could they possibly know that their paths would cross during the worst time in their lives and where that path would lead?
