Bleeding Heart- Amber Stokes- Giveaway


Amber Stokes is hosting a tour for her new novel, Bleeding Heart.


17927845Description:  Summer 1886

Sally Clay’s livelihood has been snatched away, but in its place arises an opportunity to escape from her sordid past and an unrelenting, unwanted suitor. Boarding a train with a heartsick rancher and an enigmatic miner, she leaves Virginia City behind and heads to Northern California, waiting for the chance to make right what went wrong three long years before.

But the road to revenge is far from smooth. Sally soon learns that the jagged pieces of a broken heart can far too easily wound the hearts of others – and hers isn’t the only heart that’s broken. Tragedy and fear dog her steps as she flees from the redwood forests to the high desert and back again. Will her bleeding heart ever find a way and a place to heal?

A desperate soiled dove. Three men who come to care for her. One man determined to claim her.

All on a journey that will show them what true love really involves.

My Rating: 4 Stars

My Thoughts: I really liked the theme of bleeding hearts, in the flowers and in the broken mirrors. The relationships were far more realistic than in many other novels, portraying emotions that are rarely touched upon. However, I wish that there had been a little more description of the settings. It was very minimalistic.

After her brief time at college in Oregon, she is now back home among the redwoods of Northern California, living life one day at a time and pursuing her passion via freelance editing and self-publishing her debut novel, Bleeding Heart.
