Virginia Nelson Takes Us "Back In Time"



Thanks so much for having me here today!
I’m a huge history buff, loving nothing more than learning about strong characters from the past. This great love of what was led me to explore our local medieval faire with my ex-husband in full garb with our baby daughter. As a reasonably strong woman, it grated on my nerves to follow a few footsteps behind him since I was but a mere wench and he obviously a knight due to our choice (his choice) of costumes, but I could see the charm of chivalry. Knights stopped to give me posies, no slurs were allowed in my presence…
It offered a certain dignity while being frustrating which I didn’t expect in the least. The heroine of this story grew up in that world of make-believe. She is a strong and determined woman used to men who like to pretend to be knights and lords while she understand the true power of being a woman. I liked being in her headspace for a while and I hope readers enjoy her romantic escapades as much as I did writing them. So, friends, grab a tankard of mead, a leg of turkey and perhaps some freshly cooked cashews and join me at the joust. Together we’ll see if the one that got away can possibly work his way back into his lady-fair’s heart or if the past is better left in yesterday. It is time to fall…Back in Time!


 They pretended to be lords and ladies, but their love became all too real...

Blurb:
Lady Daffodil Davola grew up traveling Ren Faires with her family. She’s not ashamed of living life off the grid, content with her world and the bawdy band of misfits and wanderers who share it with her.  She doesn’t seek the approval of the outside world…not even from the one man who ever made her want something more.
Gregory Wilder grew up in a family obsessed with politics, determined to become movers and shakers. He remembers a fluke visit to a medieval faire and the girl he met once upon a time. After a messy divorce, he’s determined to find her and see what if…
Assigned to play King and Queen, they have to work together for Knight’s week, like it or not, because Daffy’s father insists. Can they make it through a week without killing each other, or will they end up falling Back In Time?


About the Author
Virginia Nelson believed them when they said, “Write what you know.” Small town girl writing small town romance, her characters are as full of flaws, misunderstandings, and flat out mistakes as Virginia herself. When she’s is not writing or plotting to take over the world, she likes to hang out with the greatest kids in history, play in the mud, drive far too fast, and scream at inanimate objects. Virginia likes knights in rusted and dinged up armor, heroes that snarl instead of croon, and heroines who can’t remember to say the right thing even with an author writing their dialogue. Her books are full of snark, sex, and random acts of ineptitude—not always in that order.

Editing New Work


I'm editing new work tonight and just exhausted, so I have to skip today's blog. But I will ask a favor of anyone who drops by. Does anyone know the name of this cover model? If so please leave it in the comment box. I'd love to know his name.

Also, take a good look and tell me if you think it's possible these two photos are the same man?


Thank you! Have a wonderful week.

I Got A New Book Contract!


Last Thursday I submitted a new paranormal romance to Fated Desires and a couple hours later they offered me a contract! I was thrilled. It was so fast I thought I was receiving a confirmation email not a contract. This was hands down my quickest turn around ever.


The Story is called "Hoodoo Blue" named for a hexed love potion the hero and heroine get tricked into sharing. The story is a romantic comedy and will be part of Fated Desires upcoming theme line "The Set-Up" as in set-up reluctant dates... We all know how awkward those can be, add a little enchantment, physical peril and a couple of loners trapped in close proximity to each other during a very trying time, and you get the set-up date from hell--that takes a heavenly turn. Hoodoo Blue has a happy ending for a curvy blonde Latina witch and a hunky lumberjack of a Lycan, I  promise.


(Inspiration for the Voodoo Hoodoo Cocktail Lounge)

Today I'm starting the final chapter of a Sci-fi adventure I plan to submit to Fated Desires as well. It's been one of those busy, high energy weeks. I hope my good vibe lasts until this next project is completed.

I'm so excited to be joining the Fated Desires family. I can't wait to share more soon.
