Aloha to Tracey Devlyn and LATYMER - A Nexus Novella


Last week, I had several issues with my laptop, Yahoo, and Blogger.   Thus, I missed Tracey Devlyn's cover reveal for LATYMER, A Nexus Novella.   So let me do that now ...

Latymer:
A Nexus Novella
Genre:  Historical Romantic Thriller
Length:  71 pages
ISBN:  9781940677002
Release Date:  January 7, 2014

Traitor or savior…or something far more devastating?

William Townsend, Lord Latymer, lost the woman he loved because of his greed and his ultimate deception of two powerful countries. Now, he must protect his nine-year-old son from the same fate. Latymer has only one chance to escape his enemies—board a ship that would carry them both to America and a new life. But first he must find his missing son, elude a vengeful grieving brother, and kill a beautiful French assassin. Time is slipping through his fingers and Latymer has twelve hours before his ship and his future sail away.

  1. I don't mind them, but I guess I prefer novellas as prequels to set up the series.

  2. I like novellas as prequels or to follow up on characters we've already met in a series. I don't like them to be about totally new characters as it can be confusing.

  3. Novellas work best as prequels, but in general I prefer a full sized read.

  4. I don't mind novellas although whenever a fun secondary character ends up getting a story of their own, I do shake my fist a little that their story is so short lol But prequels or in the midst of the series, novellas are fun reads.

  8. I like novellas that are part of a series and it doesn't matter where they occur - as a prequel, in the middle or as a follow-up for previous characters.

  9. I like them any where but they are probably better setting up a series.
    Thanks for the chance.

  15. I love novellas, but have to make sure that I read the stories in order even if it says that they don't have to be. Lol.
    I enjoy reading about characters that may not have had a story. :)
    I, honestly, like almost all types of novellas, whether they be new or old characters or in the beginning or middle of a series.
