For the last couple weeks, Clash of the Titles has been exploring two books delivering powerful death scenes. That’s right, death scenes. The two books were The Vengeance Squad and The Redemption.
We met authors Sidney Frost and MaryLu Tyndall and waited with bated breath to find out which title got the most votes. If you missed Friday’s announcement, I won’t keep you in suspense. Though the competition was stiff, the champion title is…
The Redemption, by MaryLu Tyndall.
Congratulations!
About the book
Lady Charlisse Bristol sets off on a voyage in search of a father she never knew, only to find herself shipwrecked on a deserted island. After weeks of combating the elements, her salvation comes in the form of a band of pirates and their fiercely handsome leader, Edmund Merrick. Will Charlisse free herself from the seductive lure of this pirate captain and find the father’s love she so ardently craves?
While battling his attraction to this winsome lady and learning to walk a more godly path, Edmund offers to help Charlisse on her quest–until he discovers her father is none other than Edward the Terror, the cruelest pirate on the Caribbean. Can Edmund win this lady’s love while shielding her from his lecherous crew and working to bring her father to justice?
Can the supernatural power of God rescue Charlisse and Edmund from the danger and treachery that await them as they ride upon the tumultuous waves of the Caribbean?
A few of the comments from readers
I loved the Excerpt B…..I look forward to reading the book..it seemed more historical and the genre of books I enjoy reading. I am personally blessed by many of the Christian fiction authors and want to say thank you for all you for your readers. God bless you both!
Someone turning to Christ at the last moment is always a touching scene. It tugs at your heart to know that someone you would never see again, now you will. Very touching!
Keep writing as God leads you. You are bringing God’s truth to readers; some who really need those truths in their lives.
About the author
MaryLu Tyndall, a Christy Award finalist, and author of more than ten novels is known for her swashbuckling historical romances filled with deep spiritual themes.
MaryLu dreamt of tall ships and swashbuckling pirates during her childhood years on Florida’s Atlantic Coast. Unfortunately, instead of pursuing that dream, she worked as a miserable, landlocked software engineer for fifteen years. Only by the grace and providence of God, did she decide to answer His call to write a Christian Pirate series. Today, while writing her eleventh novel, she manages a home, husband, and six kids while battling three cats who have decided that her keyboard is the best place to sleep!
She believes that without popcorn and chocolate, life would not be worth living, and her sole motivation is to bring others closer to God.
What fun! For a sneak peak at the book, check out the winning excerpt here.
