She entered the world of writing with a submission to the Warriors Wanted! blitz and was thrilled when her story was selected. Spending time writing allows her to escape to the ancient worlds of her protagonists, journeying with them as they battle the external forces that strive to keep them apart, and their own personal barriers to falling in love, until they find their happy-ever-after. Becoming a published author has been a dream come true--Roxy can't wait to write more stories for Harlequin Historical and very much hopes her readers will enjoy them! \u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Harlequin Special Releases","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51298631024914,"sku":"9781335540171","price":5.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0831\/4771\/8930\/files\/img_cda93537-dc12-4bb7-b915-d1c4afe9d37c.jpg?v=1747830529","url":"https:\/\/surprise-castle.myshopify.com\/products\/the-vikings-royal-temptation-9781335540171","provider":"Surprise Castle","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
