Book Three of Georgia Gold Series Debuts at Corner Bookstore

Regional Author Brings Book Three of
Georgia Gold Series to Winder

From
Watkinsville author Denise Weimer and Canterbury House Publishing, The
Crimson Bloom, Book Three of The Georgia Gold Series, debuts in local
bookstores this spring. Building on the mid-1800s action, romance and mystery
of Books One and Two of the series released in 2013, Sautee Shadows and The
Gray Divide, The Crimson Bloom transports readers to the coast and
mountains of Civil War-era Georgia. Readers can pick up their copy of what
James A. Cox, Editor-in-Chief of Midwest Reviews calls "a riveting
interpersonal drama" at The Corner Bookstore.

With
her husband Devereaux Rousseau now a captain commanding Savannah's elite
Oglethorpe Light Infantry on the Civil War battlefields of Virginia, Carolyn
Calhoun Rousseau must prove her own backbone as she operates the family's last
functioning farm in the hills of Habersham County. She draws on the support of
her best friend, Mahala Franklin, half-Cherokee granddaughter of a local inn
owner. Mahala battles her own frustrations with Jack Randall, rival hotel owner
and coastal shipping magnate. Jack's continued reluctance to commit threatens
to drive Mahala into the arms of her Cherokee childhood sweetheart, Clay
Fraser. Then, tragedy brings Mahala and Carolyn to Savannah just as
Sherman advances on the city -- and forces everyone to confront their true
feelings. Will Jack abandon his ship and its profits to the Yankees in
Wilmington Harbor in order to guide them on a perilous wagon journey across
Georgia, or will he abandon the woman he claims to love, but whom he now knows
also has feelings for another? And even if Mahala reaches safety, could her discovery
about her father's long-ago murder and missing gold prove far more dangerous
than the war?

The
Georgia Gold Series was inspired by the family letters and diaries of beloved
regional artist John Kollock, who passed away this March. His artwork designed
exclusively for the series graces the covers of all four novels. The cover of The
Crimson Bloom depicts Factor's Row and the Savannah riverfront. Book Four, Bright
as Gold, which will release September 1, 2014, will feature Pomona Hall of
Clarkesville.
