The year is 1864. The place β the Deep South. Thereβs typhoid in the town, soldiers at the door, and a dead husband in the springhouse. When gun smugglers come calling, Morgan Edgeworth has only one thing to barter β a deadly knowledge of bomb-making no woman should have. To escape a violent past and protect his brother, Liam Griffin crosses an ocean to America -- only to step off the boat into the middle of a deadly war. The Irishman is forced to join the North - as scout, tactician, and the gun guarding his brotherβs back. When Griffin steps into the Bleu Pig Tavern, heβs looking for information. What he finds is a woman β An elegant southern lady serving whiskey to thieves and deserters. Sheβs beautiful, well-spoken, and entirely out-of-place in a rowdy tavern. As she circles the room, pausing only for hurried conversations with men in Confederate uniforms, Griffin is forced to look beyond his interest in Morgan as a woman. Could she know something about the black powder making its way up the Mississippi? When Griffin rescues Morgan from a dangerous situation, he offers his protection in exchange for information. Can she survive on her own, or should she trust the charming Irishman to keep his word? Widow, Spy, & Lover is an action-packed romance that begins during the Civil War in Union-occupied Louisiana, and ends on the Texas frontier. Itβs about fresh starts. Love and Redemption. And the meaning of family. Thereβs adventure, humor, romance, and passion. Widow, Spy, & Lover placed second in the Laurie Award contest sponsored by the Smoky Mountain Chapter of RWA. Eden Carson also won second place in the Silken Sands Readers' Choice contest sponsored by the Gulf Coast Chapter of RWA and was a Quarterfinalist in the ABNA Romance Category for 2012 for her first novel, Untamed Journey.
