A Sexy Historical Romance ___ Praise for Rose of Ebony This is a good start to a new series. I love reading any story Tracy Cooper-Posey writes. This one grabbed my attention and I couldn't put it down until I was done. Oh, how I wish this story was longer; goes without saying that I'm grabbing book two in the series. I love Victorian London books and this one was read with great expectations for a wonderful story, and it did not disappoint. Another great series is starting and it looks like it will be great just like all the other series by this author. Wow, As soon as I started Tracys Cooper Posey first book in her new spin off series Scandalous Scions I was hooked. Thank you Tracy for introducing me to this wonderful series. Ok here goes again! I never expected Tracy to leave me perched on the edge of a cliff, but she has succeeded. Having not read any historical romances before, I was amazed how quickly I immersed into this novella. Tracy describes the setting so beautifully that the imagery takes you back to that era in the past where traditions are so different from today. ___ Tracy Cooper-Posey is a #1 Best Selling Author.  She writes romantic suspense, historical, paranormal and science fiction romance.  She has published over 90 novels since 1999, been nominated for five CAPAs including Favourite Author, and won the Emma Darcy Award.
