810 AD - Alba (Ancient Scotland) - Queen at last, Pressine brings
victory to her beloved Elinas and prosperity to their growing kingdom.
But she has to contend with the intrigues of Charlemagne's bishops,
spurred by her Christian stepson. She also fears the curse that could
bring her downfall. For the love of Elinas, she will tempt fate and
become with child. But when her indomitable passion challenges the wrath
of the Goddess Herself... can she win that battle?
Although this is a complete story in itself, it features the same hero
and heroine as in Book One, PRINCESS OF BRETAGNE, and also takes place
in ancient Scotland, only a few years later. So if you are like me and
you prefer to read series in chronological order, you may want to read
Princess of Bretagne before Pagan Queen. Happy reading! The books in
this series so far are:
Book 1 - PRINCESS OF BRETAGNE
Book 2 - PAGAN QUEEN
Book 3 - SEDUCING SIGEFROI
Book 4 - LADY OF LUXEMBOURG
Book 5 - CHATELAINE OF FOREZ (coming in early 2014)
5-star review from Roberta at Manic Readers:
"Schartz is an
accomplished writer, whose pacing, conflicts, and goals are always
complex and whose good characters are always likeable, and whose
villains are evil incarnate. You have to like her villains as much as
the good guys! Mattacks is a magnificent example of this!"
HAPPY HOLIDAYS

Yep, I wrote THE END on the last page of the manuscript of CHATELAINE OF FOREZ, Book Five in the CURSE OF THE LOST ISLE series.
I'm going to polish it to a shine during the holidays, and send it to the publisher as soon as they reopen in January. Publication date will depend upon how long it takes the editors (some of them in England), and BWL's talented cover artists, to put it together. I predict it will probably be in late February or early March.
Anyhoo... I'm very excited and celebrating right now. Although this is my... let me count... Twenty-third title (I had to go to Amazon to check how many I had already published), the thrill of finishing a book never gets old.
CHATELAINE OF FOREZ follows Melusine (after Lady of Luxembourg) on a new adventure (still based upon the authentic legends, this time in the independent province of Forez (France), where I had a great time researching the local archives a few years ago.
Here is the short blurb:
Still afflicted by the ondine curse, Melusine seeks the reincarnated soul of her lost beloved in the young Artaud of Forez, who reigns over the verdant hills south of Burgundy, on the road of pilgrims, troubadours and merchants. But this dark and brooding Pagan lord is not at all what she hoped. He knows nothing of their past love, her Fae nature, or her secret curse. Must Melusine seduce and betroth this cold stranger to satisfy the Goddess and redeem her curse?
The gold in the rivers instills greed in the powerful, and many envy the rich Lord of Forez, including his most trusted vassals... even the Archbishop of Lyon. When a mythological creature is sighted in the swamps, initiating a holy hunt, will Melusine find redemption from the curse, or will she and Artaud burn at the stake?
