Beverly Jenkins novel Rebel is Book One in the 'Women Who Dare' series, book two just came out in Feb 2021! This book features Valinda Lacey our heroine, and Drake LeVeq an AMAZING hero, in Reconstruction era New Orleans. Beverly Jenkins is a MASTER and you need to come and hear why. One hint, she does what she calls 'edutainment' which she describes as teaching while entertaining. You become immersed in the different cultures of New Orleans in this time period so vividly that you won't realize you are learning, you will just see the Quarter, the electric energy of the city, while watching the two characters fall in love. Drake is an incredible hero... romantic, a bit of a pirate, he speaks with a French accent... not much more needs to be said! Article mentioned in the podcast:https://www.abc.net.au/news/2021-02-14/bridgerton-series-netflix-diversity-in-historical-romance-novels/13116184Heidi discovered the book Through the Storm is Raimond LeVeq's book (she mentioned that she thought he must have his own)Support the show (https://paypal.me/romancebookreviewpod)
