About Me

Marty Kindall is an author of historical romance, contemporary romance, and paranormal/urban fantasy. On the more 'serious' side, she has also published historical research, short non-fiction, and poetry. With four Vintage Roses published by The Wild Rose Press, she has switched gears to focus on a three-book urban fantasy series, and is indulging her interest in ancient history by writing a romance set in Rome. When not writing, Marty is a college administrator and history professor. She enjoys sports, the arts, and travel--and playing with her Scottie puppy, Stewie."Very few authors can suck me into a story so thoroughly or make me fall deeply in love with the hero, but Ms. Kindall has done it. There aren't enough words in the thesaurus to describe how wonderful an author Marty Kindall is. I've never been disappointed in a single thing she's written, and I don't believe I ever will." ~Margaret Marr, Reviewer, Nights & Weekends"Marty Kindall creates a fantastic read that breathes life with each page. Her unique characters really...make the story a complete joy to read." ~Linda L, Reviewer, Fallen Angel Reviews"Ms. Kindall's writing is smooth and full of vivid description. It was that good!" ~Marianne Arkins, Reviewer, The Long and the Short of It

When Philadelphian Elizabeth Temple arrives in a small, Southern town to teach first grade in 1948, she hopes to slide unnoticed into a spinster's existence, believing herself unfit for any companion. She doesn't count on falling for handsome Jake Ryan, a World War II veteran tainted by a scandalous divorce now struggling to raise his young son alone. Despite an undeniable chemistry, the road to romance is strewn with roadblocks and detours. Between the personal secret that has a devastating grip on Elizabeth, and Jake's temperamental, soon-to-be-ex-wife, what looks like a 'sure thing' could easily slip away. Buckle your seat-belt. Grace McAfee Currie is on a mission--to make up for lost time, and lost love. Hoping to escape her controlling family and rekindle a romance all at the same time, she sets in motion a chain of events that spiral out of her control. WWI veteran Aidan Palmer is jolted back into life when he reconnects with Grace, the one woman he can't resist. In order to be together, this socialite and would-be preacher must outwit her ambitious brother, out-maneuver competing bootleggers, and drive into an uncertain sunset in an exciting new world. Hometown sweethearts Eddie Colvert and Sarah Monroe face an uncertain future following the December 7, 1941 attack on Pearl Harbor. When Eddie joins the Army, Sarah reluctantly agrees to postpone their spring wedding and prepares to face the holidays without her steady. Unbeknownst to her, he's arranged the surprise of a lifetime with friends and family before he leaves for the war effort. When Ben Sheridan is released from prison in 1936, he returns to his hometown in the Blue Ridge Mountains with only one goal--to lead a simple life. Although he's paid his debt to society, he's never forgiven himself for the unthinkable act that forced him to take the life of his step-brother over a decade before. Small-town storekeeper, Heather O'Malley, has never played the victim, but to most she's still that "scarred" young woman, the past prey of a madman. Unconventional and independent, she seizes the opportunity to help Ben restart his life, in part to atone for her silence about the events that sent her rescuer to prison. Ben can't resist Heather's free-spirited approach to life, and she can't resist his reluctant charm. Neither intends to fall in love, but when dangers from their past threaten their fragile connection and another young girl turns up missing, they discover just how knotted together their lives are--and how fiercely they're willing to fight for each other and their future.
