The Fine Art of Keeping Quiet ~ Charity Tahmaseb

Sometimes staying silent is the biggest lie of all

The Mapmaker’s Wife ~ Kathy L Wheeler

In the midst of his worn-torn country, love posed the greater danger.

A flippant proposal and an attack on her person finds one young woman married to the mapmaker who only needs someone to take control of his ungovernable child. Feelings quickly shift into something less platonic and when the enemy gains vital secrets, her suspicions land her in jail.

EXCERPT

from The Mapmaker’s Wife ~ Kathy L Wheeler


“Miss Ruthers?”

“Yes. It’s me, Mr. Williams.”

“Good heavens, you’ll catch your death.” He leaned over the edge, gripping the wood rail. She thought she caught concern, however fleeting. “You haven’t a coat.”

“No, Mr. Williams. I didn’t have much time, I’m afraid.”

“You’d best come in.” At his grim tone, she cast a glance to the bank of trees behind. “Now, Miss Ruthers. It’s freezing out.”

Clutching her torn shirt tighter with one hand, Elizabeth lifted her skirts with the other and trod up the wood stairs, head held high. Dignity was her only salvation. With a confidence she didn’t feel, she marched past him and into a kitchen a bit larger than the one she’d fled.

Dishes filled the sink and the floor needed a good sweeping. His limp seemed more pronounced as he filed in and hung the lantern on a hook next to the door. He shut it softly, staring at her all the while, arms folded over a broad chest.

The heat in the kitchen, after the cold night, seemed stifling and overwarm. His eyes moved over her, pausing at her throat where her frozen hand secured her shirt in a fist, rising back up to her damp hair, dripping puddles on the floor. She was so warm, she felt faint.

After a long pause, he asked, “Is there something you wish to tell me, Miss Ruthers?”

“I-I accept your proposal.”

    1. Jolanda, the short answer for me is one day I realized I could actually write down all the stories that filled my head. Before then, it was just something I did to entertain myself.

    2. Jolanda, I found that I was adding new plots and twists to the stories I had read. These were all in my imagination and it grew to imagining new stories. The next step was writing them down.

    3. I started young, really about the age of 4. I loved weaving stories. They didn't make much sense then, but now I think I'm getting better at it :) Why? That is a good question and I'll ponder it.
      Hugs, L.A.

    1. Esther, too many to name! In terms of classics, a couple of my favorites include Jane Austen, F. Scott Fitzgerald, and a lesser known author from Minnesota, Maud Hart Lovelace.

    2. You know, I don't think so. But as a reader of Romance, I started with Georgette Heyer. My tastes have changed, but the bug started with those books. Thanks for asking.
      Hugs, L.A.
