I have always enjoyed history, so having some history included in a fictional book adds depth to the story. I just don't want the historical facts to overshadow the plot and characterization. (Cheryl Castings 11:37am June 17, 2015)
I do enjoy learning little tidbits about history and or facts about the Military... but for me it is the overall journey the characters take to find happiness that I focus on mostly in romances. (Colleen Conklin 2:42pm June 17, 2015)
Love me some stories about Seal's adventures and action. Always looking for new authors books for my library. (Sharon Rabner 7:03pm June 17, 2015)
Love historicals and understanding the military more from the novels I read. Setting is in the details. Because I've travel extensively, I want accuracy in my books to make it more realistic. But, truthfully, a good plot, pacing, believable characters, a quirky or interesting secondary character, and a good romance add to a good book. Thanks for letting me discover you.

Sure. (Marissa Yip-Young 5:54am June 18, 2015)
I love military books. I am new to your books. (Hillary Kaltenbach 7:59am June 18, 2015)
Yes, I enjoy learning about history and the background of the characters as it makes them more realistic. (Linda Harrison 8:38am June 18, 2015)
I LOVE historical-based books because I get to learn at the same time I am caught up in a new and original story. And a lot of times I check the facts to make sure that what's been incorporated into the "novel" is actually true. It's such a fun and painless way to learn. Your book sounds great. (Nancy Reynolds 10:02am June 18, 2015)
One of the reasons I found romance was because of my love of reading about people in history...I learned a lot about history along the way! I love learning and it would be a delight to learn about code talking in military, especially because my Dad was in Military Code School in WWII! (Lenna Hendershott 12:35pm June 18, 2015)
Happy Thursday (Emily Stemp 2:23pm June 18, 2015)
I like learning about history. (Laura Gullickson 7:04am June 20, 2015)
Yes I enjoy a little history, just like I enjoy researching for my 5 family trees. It's not always nice info that you find but it gives insight to the lives they lived. (Nancy Luebke 12:41pm June 20, 2015)
I like learning details from history in my romance, because many times it's important to know in order to understand the backstory of the characters. (Becky R 1:18pm June 20, 2015)
I enjoy learning interesting historical facts. In an historical romance they help to define the characters. (Irene Menge 7:28pm June 20, 2015)
I love to learn true historical facts, especially about the Navajo Code Talkers, as I worked for the Indian Health Service in clinics on the reservation, where both Western & traditional medicine were used in healing.It was fascinating. (Rachel Kerrinski 10:23pm June 20, 2015)
I love history in my reading books. It makes sense because I majored in history at college. It also makes the story more believable. (Melinda Marks 10:34pm June 20, 2015)
