#Medieval Monday Welcomes Cathy MacRae
Welcome to Medieval Monday and the summer of getting to know some of our wonderful, Medieval Monday authors and why they enjoy writing Medieval romances--be it paranormal, time travel, or sweeping romances. The lovely, Cathy MacRae is in the Tavern answering the question, "Why I love Medieval writing?"
Romance in a Kilt
Welcome to my world of Medieval Romance! I have always been drawn to historical romance, and love re-reading some of the first books that welcomed me to that special time and place. Books by Kathleen Woodiwiss and Judith McNaught still hold much-loved places on my bookshelves right alongside more current favorites. They are a whirlwind of drama, passion, and promise, where trust is everything, and sometimes love develops in the most unusual places.
I am intrigued by history. The what-ifs and whys; the research into the actions of a few people who set the course for many. You will find often gritty history coloring the background of all of my stories.
My books in the Medieval Era are a blend of high drama and romance set against a backdrop of treachery, hardship and duty. And in a time when women were stronger than history tells us, and marriage was rarely for sigh-worthy reasons, I find it fascinating to relate stories of relationships that blossom into love.
