These books are not in the category of formula romances. They are what I like to call Historical Dramas. You will find romance, but you will also find a story about relationships between people. The stories are about forgiveness, redemption, loyalty, and the power of love. Each character has good points, but they are also flawed human beings that make mistakes and fall hard, and at some point struggle through the adversity, dust themselves off and move on. So the sugary sweet romances they are not. Just thought I would add a little more light to the genre.Rita Gerlachhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04348571506318182955noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8713519582170578996.post-46444199630005636282012-01-30T14:52:42.272-05:002012-01-30T14:52:42.272-05:00This comment has been removed by the author.Rita Gerlachhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04348571506318182955noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8713519582170578996.post-91247792411617640332012-01-29T21:29:08.325-05:002012-01-29T21:29:08.325-05:00a great posting...would love to read rita's la...a great posting...would love to read rita's latest novel...thanks for the chance<br /><br />karenk<br />kmkuka at yahoo dot comkarenkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01059861255253991778noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8713519582170578996.post-31850121691261180902012-01-29T19:57:59.196-05:002012-01-29T19:57:59.196-05:00I am waiting to watch Downton Abby as well!

Check out her new series everyone.<br /><br />Anne, so true about indentured servants. Wait until you read book 3, Beyond the Valley. It is Sarah's story and how she came to be an indentured servant.<br /><br />Diana, you are a sweetheart. I think I should send you a bulk pack of tissues for causing you to cry. Paul, my husband, started reading the ARC for Beside Two Rivers, Darcy's story in book 2. I just went downstairs and found him still in the recliner reading it... and he had tears in his eyes. <br /><br />Sarah and Sandi, thanks for posting and stopping by. It means so much to me, and to Carrie too.Rita Gerlachhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04348571506318182955noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8713519582170578996.post-12399362734443307582012-01-29T18:51:36.973-05:002012-01-29T18:51:36.973-05:00I would love to win a copy of one of Rita Gerlach&...I would love to win a copy of one of Rita Gerlach's books.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16372681107144844291noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8713519582170578996.post-16750321228160052092012-01-29T18:00:52.600-05:002012-01-29T18:00:52.600-05:00What a lovely interview!

Rita, I am so sorry for your loss, and thankful for the comforting scripture the Lord has given you during this most difficult time. Having just lost my mom around the same time as Carrie lost hers, I, too, take alot of comfort in knowing that the loss of our loved ones is only temporary, and there WILL come a day when all of our tears will be wiped away and we WILL be reunited with our loved ones who have gone on before!<br /><br />I just can't say enough about Before the Scarlet Dawn. I know I will read alot of books this year, but it will definitely be at the top of my 2012 list of favorites in Dec! I still can't forget Eliza...poor, dear Eliza. What a wonderful heroine! This novel would make the best movie, Rita. Before I do another review, let me hush! :) I simply can't wait for Darcy and Sarah's stories! Thank you for the wonderful interview, ladies.Diana Flowershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17127629740742628849noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8713519582170578996.post-59622573281010954162012-01-29T16:57:42.795-05:002012-01-29T16:57:42.795-05:00Thanks for another interesting interview, Carrie &...Thanks for another interesting interview, Carrie & Rita.
