I'm delighted to welcome Ros Rendle to The Heart of Romance today to share her road to publishing Peace of Time
Four
years ago, I was lucky enough to be accepted on to the Romantic Novelists’
Association New Writers’ Scheme and had access to very helpful critiques at
that time, so my novel, Sense and French
Ability found a publisher quite quickly. It became an Amazon best-seller,
so I am indebted to that excellent scheme for all their support.
I started to write Peace of Time forty years ago! My mum was a published author many
times over and she urged me to get on with it. Life got in the way, as it does,
in the shape of a demanding full-time job and two young children. However, when
I took early retirement and went to live permanently in France, I had oodles of
time and dug out that early idea. The difference was I had a lot more of life’s
experience upon which to draw as well as time. The book was accepted for
publication and came out in April 2017. Therefore, although the first book I
wrote, Peace of Time was the second
to be published.
It was the book that I needed to write, and I was able to draw
upon personal experience and that of close family to a greater degree than when
I was young.
Peace
of Time features six close friends – or are they? It’s a story of trust and
loyalties tested. As the summer draws to a close,
Jen has some life changing decisions to make and what she decides will shock
everyone, but most of all herself. Peace
of Time is currently on a price offer of only £1.99 or $2.64
It has received good reviews all with either
four or five stars.
These are
but two of those for which I am extremely grateful.

This book is easy to read, and
the characters are believable. The twist at the end is quite unexpected and
will resonate with lots of people in a similar situation. Good holiday reading.

With this book I just needed to
know what happened next, found I couldn't put it down. I could relate to the
characters well.
