Katie Walsh
by Colleen L. Donnelly
Genre: Historical Romance
Synopsis
Katie Walsh expects to write a love story someday. The hero resembles her father, and the heroine the deceased mother she never knew but imagines from the longing on her father’s face.
Katie doesn’t expect her father to be murdered, or his will to leave their farm to Guy Knowles, the man she hoped to marry, and order her to another state. Betrayed by the men she trusted, what should have become a love like no other withers and dies.
Until Ted Howard, who doesn’t fit the hole Guy left in her heart. Instead, he fits himself into what she needs—someone who will stay, protect her, and break his own heart for her if needed.

Enjoy this peek inside:
“I don’t know who hit him. The car never slowed or stopped. They’re looking for it. And the driver.”
But they wouldn’t find either. Mr. Alexandar’s angst told me as much. Whoever did this didn’t plan simply to kill my father, they also planned to escape. The same way my father planned for this moment and afterward. I stared at the envelope that held Papa’s will I couldn’t believe he had.
“I’m sorry.” Clifton Alexandar truly was sorry. He didn’t like the task of verbally removing Papa from my life. He probably didn’t realize he had taken my mother as well. The one person I longed to know but never did. Papa, my sole source of information about the woman he loved, was suddenly gone.
Mr. Alexandar stared through the screen while I suffered a vast implosion of my soul. No Papa. No more tidbits about my mother. I became an orphan in a moment. A seventeen-year-old girl with a house, this farm…and Guy. He had never asked for my hand, but he would. Especially now.

What era is this set in? The genre says Historical Romance, but in the excerpt a car is mentioned.
This occurs in the 1920s and 1930s in the US. Just as an aside, I wanted Katie to have a Model A pickup, so choosing the time and setting for her story hinged on that.
Thank you so much for featuring KATIE WALSH today!
I enjoy historical romance. This one sounds good.
Thank you! Like happens to many of us, romance had to slip through Katie’s fingers before she understood what it really meant.
Loving the sound of this incredible story! I so hoe to win and grab a copy!
Thank you, Melissa! The saying “Write what you know” is especially true for this book. Like Katie, the story I carried inside became muddled when life turned upside down, and it took time to recover it. The day I wrote “The End” was the end of a long quest for Katie and I both.
Sounds like a good read.
Thank you, Rita! It will appeal to those who have had to face the unimaginable and come out a better person at the end.
This sounds really good. Thank you for the giveaway!
Thank you, Deborah, and you are very welcome!
sounds like a great book
Thank you, “lightnorthwinds” … what a fantastic handle! I hope you write books with a name like that!
I love reading books with my name as the main character!
Thank you for sharing “Katie Walsh” on your site. You have some great followers, like your own little cyber coffee shop where readers meet. Well done and I am pleased to be a part of it!
This sounds like an interesting book and I also like the cover.
Thank you, Ann! Covers are fun, yet a challenge. I try to use objects to pose a question on them, so that a person wonders who, what, or why. Then my publisher turns my suggestions into something far more attractive than I could ever manage!
this sounds really good, best wishes with the book
Thank you, Wendy!
looks like a fun one
Hope it does well!
