The Indigo Blade

By Linda Winstead Jones

Despite the fact that they had been married only for a short time, Penelope Seton was already chafing under the restraints of life with her husband, the rich and handsome Maximillian Broderick. He was a wonderful man, and she loved him, but Penelope wanted more.... Her chance for excitement came in the form of a bold invitation from a former suitor--an invitation to hunt down and capture the infamous Indigo Blade. Penelope accepted the offer, hoping that the thrill of an encounter with the incognito rogue would cure her boredom and invigorate her body and soul. But Maximillian knows more than she supposes--will Penelope's secret destroy her marriage and her reputation as a gentlewoman?

Linda Winstead Jones

The first clue Linda had that she might like to write for a living came when she took a community education class in creative writing at the local high school. Taking classes was her hobby at the time, and creative writing came between yoga and French, or maybe between cake decorating and Chinese cooking. It was her first experience of meeting and working with other writers. She had always loved to read, and soon found that she loved writing. For years writing was just a hobby, one she sometimes attacked with a vengeance and then set aside for months at a time. When the time came to give completing a book a serious try, she was ready. Guardian Angel, a Western historical romance, was written at her kitchen table. Not long after she mailed it to a publisher, she discovered the local RWA chapter, Heart of Dixie, and joined. She knew right away that these were her people, and she hasn't wandered far since. Apparently unable to say no, she has served as conference chairman, president, luncheon chairman, and vice president. Easily bored, she soon deviated from historical romance into time travel, fairy-tale romance, and romantic suspense. When she's not writing, Linda can be found at hockey games (where she's a season ticket holder for the local team), a meeting of writers (a necessity and a joy that she will never give up), or doing the family thing with an ever-growing and wonderful family.
