TCM Reviews says "...sheer brilliance."

Reviews for BEYOND THE MAZE have just been getting better and better all the time! Here's a snippet from TCM Reviews' Robyn Ashford:

Beyond the Maze is one of the best stories I’ve read in a while. The author brings the romance of the 19th century to the modern woman and adds in a touch of magical destiny. I thought that writing the first part of the story from Aubrianna’s perspective and then writing the ending from Lord Keane’s perspective was sheer brilliance. I love (look) forward to more stories by Canice Brown-Porter.

WoooHooo! 4 Cups from Coffee Time Romance!

I am really psyched about this review!

Excerpt from Ms. Barry's email to me:
I hope you enjoy reading my review as much as I enjoyed your book. ... Tonja B.

Excerpt from Ms. Barry's review of Beyond the Maze :
Beyond The Maze is a wonderful book. I felt like I had traveled back in time with Aubiranna. This is a tantalizing and passionate read. The characters and setting are well described and very realistic. I can't wait for Ms. Brown-Porter's next book.

Great Things Are Happening!

I am now officially a member of Romance Writers of America! This was one of the goals I had set for myself for 2006.

Yesterday, Freya's Bowers' Managing Editor, Marci, announced that submissions of novel length or greater would be offered in print beginning this fall. What a wonderful surprise! I have my 5-book contemporary series, Yesterday's Innocence that I have always wanted to get into print. While LSB (Liquid Silver Books) had wanted me to resubmit after adding a few more sensual and/or love scenes, it would have been ebook format. With encouragement from Marci and Faith, I have submitted the first book - The Learning Curve - of the series to Freya's Bower for possible publishing! IN PRINT FORMAT! How great can that be?!

Freya's Bower is making waves in the world of epublishing and quickly rising to the top of the long list of epublishers in their own right. And now to announce moving into print! That's just fantastic! Way to go, FB! You make the authors proud to be a part of your expanding growth!

WOOHOOO! Great news from Freya's Bower!

Freya's Bower, and its parent site Wild Child Publishing, will be launching a print line (yes, as in paperbacks) this fall. Only certain works - novel length or longer - will be available in this medium. Our first two titles will be:

The Perfect Man by Sarah Dobbs

Conspiracy of Angels by Zinnia Hope (Release date in late August/early September)

Another Freya's Bower Release! Only difference...


I designed this cover art!
The Perfect Man by Sarah Dobbs
Harriet is on a mission to get a life – and she's only got 28 days to do it. Her ex fiancé is getting married and Harriet is invited to the wedding - but under no circumstances will she go alone. If that's not bad enough, her recently deceased mother just won't stop meddling in her love life. Until now, Harriet's 'love life' has been a distant dream, but men are like buses: none for ages, and then three turn up. Who will Harriet choose? Sensitive Nicholas, sexy Frenchman Julian, or Salesman John, the man she can't get out of her head (or her bed)!
