Win-A-Book Wednesday with...Veronica Scott


Veronica Scott
Best Selling Science Fiction and Paranormal Romance author Veronica Scott grew up in a house with a library full of books as its heart, and when she ran out of things to read, she started writing her own stories.  Always more stories to tell, new adventures to experience—Veronica’s personal motto is, “Never boring.”

MISC FACTS ABOUT VERONICA
Received a 2013 SFR Galaxy Award for her novel WRECK OF THE NEBULA DREAM.

Proud recipient of the NASA Exceptional Service  Medal but must hasten to add the honor was not for her romantic fiction!

Happy to be a member of the Science Fiction Romance Brigade writers’ group and the Here Be Magic authors…

Elvis Presley’s best friend once serenaded Veronica on a local TV telethon…now that could be a novel…
I selected Best Selling WARRIOR OF THE NILE for my giveaway today because there's a great deal of Ancient Egyptian magic going on here, with the goddess Nephthys (sister to Isis). And because RT Book Review Magazine said "4 Stars HOT…you’re in for the most romantic desert story since Elizabeth Taylor’s Cleopatra…”
Plus, good looking cover from Carina Press!

Egypt, 1500 BCE
Lady Tiya is bound to the service of the goddess Nephthys, who plans to sacrifice Tiya’s body to protect Egypt from an ancient terror. She embarks to meet her grim fate alone but for the hardened warrior Khenet, who is fated to die at her side. Tiya’s dreams of love and family now seem impossible, and Khenet, who is the last of his line, knows his culture will die with him. Struggling with the high cost of Nephthys’s demands, both resolve to remain loyal.
Neither expects the passion that flowers when Tiya’s quiet courage and ethereal beauty meet Khenet’s firm strength and resolve. On a boat down the Nile, their two lonely souls find in each other a reason to live. But time is short and trust elusive.
Without the willing sacrifice of Tiya and Khenet, a great evil will return to Egypt. How could the gods demand their deaths when they’ve only just begun to live?

  1. I don't know much about Egyptian mythology; so this is quite fascinating.
