Author Biography

Award-winning author KERRYN REID
Winner of the Chanticleer Books Award for Regency Romance
Silver Medalist for Romance in Florida Authors & Publishers Association’s Book Awards

Raised in a New England college town, Kerryn inherited her mother’s passion for the British Isles. At seventeen, she roamed the Rock of Cashel after-hours with her first love, a local Irish lad. So illicit, so romantic… and so unsustainable. Instead she married her college sweetheart and wound up in Florida, where they’ve lived long enough to feel like natives, with a rotating selection of dogs and cats, and not enough trips to visit their kids (not to mention the cutest, sweetest, smartest little boy any grandma ever had).

But a piece of Kerryn's heart still lives "across the pond" where so many adventures took place—as well as the Regency romances she loves. So when the itch to write needs scratching, that's where her imagination takes her. Enjoy the journey!

Reviewed by Samantha Gregory for Readers' Favorite

Anna's Refuge: Wrackwater Bridge, Book One by Kerryn Reid is the story of two brothers, both fighting over the same woman - Anna Spain. Lewis loves her, but his wicked brother Gideon steals her away. Months later, Lewis tracks her down, but she is now pregnant with Gideon's child. Lewis wants to protect her, but worries she still loves Gideon. Anna falls for Lewis but doesn't want to saddle him with another man's child. The era they live in does not help matters, especially for a pregnant young woman without a husband. It is a scandal and Anna faces many obstacles along the way. Lewis comes to her aid and does his best to protect her from it all.

Kerryn Reid has written an interesting book with Anna's Refuge: Wrackwater Bridge Book One. The characters were well written and the story flowed well. Anna's plight was moving and you really felt for her. She fell for the wrong man and ended up paying the price. I liked how the story unfolded and the pregnancy added to the story as a way to keep the two of them apart. I think this would do well with readers who love historical romance and love triangle stories. Two brothers falling for the same woman is not new, but I think this story was well executed and it kept me reading. Lewis and Anna's love story was entertaining and I love how it developed between them. I would definitely recommend Anna's Refuge.
