A
Clue for Adrianna, recently released by Annie Acorn Publishing
LLC, is the first novel in the contemporary romantic woman’s fiction series
Captain’s Point Stories that I am writing in collaboration with writer and
publisher, Annie Acorn under our pseudonym Charlotte Kent. The pseudonym celebrates our efforts and sets
them apart from our individual work as Juliette Hill and Annie Acorn. Our
collaboration has been smooth, exciting and rewarding, as well as lots and lots
of fun!
It all began back in January when Annie and I were
discussing upcoming WIPs for the year. She offered me the opportunity to work
with her on a romance series that she had been thinking about writing for years,
but was still fluid in her mind. I
always intended to start a series of my own at some point. Who would have imagined that, in approximately
90 days, we would have written, edited and published our first full-length
novel?
The process was amazing, as we’ve truly experienced two
creative minds being better than one, melding our similar writing styles, voices,
and visions. Our individual ideas about setting, characters and plot
development wove seamlessly together, creating a romantic, suspenseful,
contemporary, often humorous, women’s fiction novel. It’s our belief that readers will find
themselves falling in love again as they follow our main character’s journey of
personal growth and discovery of true love!
The fictitious town of Captain’s Point on Maryland’s Eastern
Shore is the setting of our series.
Living in Maryland as we do, Annie and I both have a soft place in our
hearts for the Eastern Shore with the area’s deep roots in history, its
picturesque towns and scenery, friendly residents and, of course, the close
proximity of both the Atlantic Ocean and the Chesapeake Bay. The commerce and lifestyle of the area blend
with our storylines, enhancing their beautiful imagery and larger than life
characters.
A strong cast of characters, who will grow and change
depending upon whatever curve balls life throws at them, are introduced within
the first book. Adrianna Montgomery, the
series’ central character, is a modern young woman who meets a number of
challenges that life throws at her. Doors
close, and she embraces others as they open.
As her character exploded onto the pages, Adrianna guided us through the
episodes of her journey, dictating and influencing our approach to her
interactions with the other main players.
The series, as it’s developing, proudly embraces our
characters’ pasts and heritage while dealing with present day situations and
issues. Storylines highlight Adrianna’s
development of friendships and relationships with the residence of Captain’s
Point and beyond. Serious writing has
already been completed on the next three novels, within which the series merges
our characters business lives with fun, romance, courtship, marriage, children,
friendships, human failures and flaws as well as personal triumphs and
successes.
A Man for Susan, the second novel in the series will be
available August 1, 2013. The future for
our readers is bright indeed as we explore the wonders of Captain’s Point
together!

A case of mistaken identity brought me here. Thought this book was by another author, but so glad I made an error. A Clue For Adrianna looks like my kind of read.
ReplyDeleteI am certainly glad to hear that your initial error was rewarding, J.P. Lane. Do you believe in fate? Always glad to hear from you, Joan, error or not.
