BLOG TOUR and GIVEAWAY: Take My Heart Marie Higgins

Tour Schedule
Take My Heart by Marie Higgins

Mercedes Maxwell’s sister’s last wish was for Mercedes to find evidence against Kat’s husband, William Braxton, and have him hung as a traitor to the crown. Mercedes isn’t naïve when it comes to capturing traitors, because her own deceased husband had once been an agent for the King when they lived in England.

When she meets William Braxton for the first time, all is not as it seems. Portraying her twin, Mercedes knows this is the only way to get close enough to William to discover his secrets. What she finds along the way are little surprises she hadn’t counted on, especially when she begins to give her heart to a man who may be a spy against the crown.

REVIEW

Oh, my goodness. I started reading Take My Heart and I couldn't put it down until I finished it.  With enough twists and turns and breathtaking moments to satisfy even the most discerning of readers, the book provides quite a ride. I really enjoyed reading about William and Mercedes as they struggled with their personal beliefs and the lies and deception that lay between them. And I liked the historical parts as well, I've always found the colonial era fascinating. I admire characters who put themselves on the line for what they believe in.  William and Mercedes are very much like that themselves. I highly recommend this for those who enjoy historical romantic suspense.

A little later in life, after she’d married and had children, Marie wrote Church roadshows that were judged as Funniest and Best Written. From there, she branched out to write full-length novels based on her dreams. (Yes, she says, her dreams really are that silly)

Marie has been married for twenty-six years to a wonderful man. Together, they have three loving daughters and several beautiful grandchildren. Marie works full time for the state of Utah, where she has lived her entire life. Marie plans to keep writing, because the characters in her head won’t shut up.
