Love Aboard the Titanic & Billy the Kid's Wife (Timeless Romance Shorts) are two heartwarming love stories that transcend time and place by bestselling novelist R. Barri Flowers.
"Love Aboard the Titanic" is a 5,000-word tale about an ill-fated historical romance aboard the Titanic. After spending a year studying at Oxford, an American female boards the luxury liner for passage back to America. She meets and falls for a fellow American, leading to a night of passion. When the ship runs into an iceberg, a promising future for the young couple is anything but certain.
"Billy the Kid's Wife" is a 10,927-word time travel romance. When a modern day historical romance writer rents a cabin in Sky Creek, Colorado to complete her next novel, a strange dog shows up, along with a handsome man and young boy. She soon comes to realize that the man is the onetime outlaw known as Billy the Kid, and that the corridors of time have merged, offering her two very different lives. She has an important decision to make in following her destiny.
Bonus material includes excerpts from the author's upcoming relationship novels, Forever Sweethearts and The Muralist.
PRAISE FOR R. BARRI FLOWERS:
"Gripping, tightly woven tale you won't want to put down. Author neatly contrasts natural beauty of tropical paradise with ugliness of murder and aftermath." -- John Lutz, Edgar winner and bestselling author of Mister X on MURDER IN MAUI
"A police procedural of the highest order, mixing equal parts Sue Grafton and Jeffrey Deaver with a sprinkling of Patricia Cornwell." -- Jon Land, bestselling author of Strong Justice on MURDER IN MAUI
"Flowers once again has written a page-turner legal thriller that begins with a bang and rapidly moves along to its final page. He has filled the novel with believable characters and situations." -- Midwest Book Review on STATE'S EVIDENCE
"A model of crime fiction... Flowers may be a new voice in modern mystery writing, but he is already one of its best voices." -- Statesman Journal on JUSTICE SERVED
"An excellent look at the jurisprudence system...will appeal to fans of John Grisham and Linda Fairstein." -- Harriet Klausner on PERSUASIVE EVIDENCE
“MURDER IN MAUI is terrific. Gripping writing, wonderfully rounded characters you really care about, and vivid locations--this novel is a real and rare treat.” -- Peter James, international bestselling author of DEAD SIMPLE
"A clever mystery with many suspects.... Vividly written, this book holds the reader's attention and speeds along." -- Romantic Times on JUSTICE SERVED
"An interesting blend of classic film noir and rough, modern cinema... Quick action and tight dialogue make it a jolting thriller, but it's also got the psychological tightness of a good mystery puzzle." -- Robert A. Sloan, author of Raven Dance on DEAD IN THE ROSE CITY
