Tamera Alexander: Remembered
Today it’s my pleasure to introduce Tamera Alexander and her new book, Remembered, to readers of Write Thinking. Tamera is a dear friend of mine, but there is no prejudice involved when I tell you she is one of the best writers of historical romance publishing today. To confirm that, here is what the Library Journal had to say in their starred review:
This follow-up to Rekindled and Revealed is a rich historical romance by possibly the best new writer in this sub-genre … Descriptive prose and memorable characters set within an engrossing love story make [Remembered] an essential read for those who like 19th-century Western romances with faith subtly interwoven throughout.
About Tamera:

About Remembered:
Though loss is often marked in a single moment, letting go of someone you love can take a lifetime…
The threat of war—and a final request—send Véronique Girard from France to a distant and uninviting country. In the Colorado Territory, she searches for the man who has held her heart since childhood—her father. Pierre Girard left Paris for the Americas to seek his fortune in fur trading, vowing to send for his wife and daughter. But twenty-five years have passed and his vow remains unfulfilled. Sifting through shards of broken promises, Véronique embarks on a dangerous search for a man she scarcely remembers.
His grief finally healed, Jack Brennan is moving on with life. After years of guiding families west, he is now working as a freighter to the mining towns surrounding Willow Springs. What he doesn’t count on is an unexpected traveling companion on his trips up into the mountains, and how one woman’s search will cause havoc with his plans… and his life.
