How can he love a wife he doesn’t remember?
Kingston West put his military service behind him much
easier than most of the men he served with during the final war. As far as he
was concerned, the cyborg who was Kingston 691 no longer existed. And the Cyber
Husband program? He viewed it like he viewed having been a prisoner of war.
Both were just service related memories he didn’t plan on recalling. The future
was all he needed.
At least he felt that way until he discovered one wife’s
file had been totally erased from his Cyber Husband records. Only her name
remained in data storage, though her family swore they’d had a loving
relationship. To put the past completely behind him, King must first find the
missing Seetha Harrington. Before he can enjoy his new beginning, he needs to
find out why Norton took those seven years together away from both of them.
Donna McDonald is an Amazon bestselling author in
Contemporary Romance and Humor, and lately has been climbing the Paranormal
Romance lists as well.
Paranormal reviewers are calling McDonald “a literary
alchemist effortlessly blending science fiction and romance”. Contemporary and
humor reviewers often write to tell her that the books keep them up reading and
laughing all night. She likes both compliments and hopes they stay true
forever.
Her idea of success is to be sitting next to someone on a
plane and find out they are laughing at something in one of her books. She
sincerely hopes that will be you.
My story of writing romances
As a life-long romance reader, I have always been drawn to
stories containing strong heroes and heroines who know their minds and live
their truths. When I got the urge to write about older women and men, I did so
with full knowledge some readers might not be interested in reading about
mature characters in love. I knew there was a possibility the stories might not
sell, but in typical Baby Boomer rebellious fashion, I said “screw it, I’m not
making the characters younger, they need to be older”.
Why did I do this? Because my youngest child is
twenty-eight, not eighteen. Because I’ve had two, long term relationships where
I continue to happily express my sexuality. The first one lasted for
twenty-three years. I personally know people of many ages who are still falling
in love as if they were a teenager and new at it. Being older–or so it seems to
me–just means you just get to the profound, meaningful sex part quicker, and
there’s so much less fumbling in the dark. Thank heaven for experience.
What has my writing brought me? Mostly the pleasure of
knowing readers like my work. Your many emails and messages remind me daily why
you are the reason I wanted to write so badly in the first place. I want to
make you laugh and make you see that significant other person in life with new
and more appreciate eyes. I want to inspire you to keep looking for the good
things in life, including your pleasure in living. I want everyone I come into
contact with to know that love, sex, and romance are great at any age.
Thank you for buying my books and helping make my dreams
come true. I hope I can return the favor in some small way with my books.
Much love and happiness,
~ Donna McDonald
PS: I really do believe that it’s never too late for romance
and love.
