Donna Brown, publisher at Cygnet Publishing of the Ozarks announced today that Cygnet Brown, Author of Locket Saga has published the second volume of her series: Soldiers Don’t Cry, The Locket Saga Continues. Soldiers Don’t Cry is now available on Cygnet Brown’s website, at Lulu.com, Barnes and Noble online, Amazon and as an e-book on Kindle KDP.
The Locket Saga began with When God Turned His Head where long ago, Kanter Thorton gave Drusilla a locket to symbolize his love for her, now, The Locket Saga continues when their daughter Elizabeth wears the locket.
Despite Elizabeth’s patriotic loyalties, she falls in love with a British officer. As young children, Elizabeth Thorton and Philip Randolph met in the frontier of Western Pennsylvania in 1763. For years, the Atlantic Ocean separated them, but now years later, the conflict brewing between the British Empire and the American colonies brought them back together. What is it that keeps Phillip from remembering his childhood and how is it the key to his and Elizabeth’s love for one another?
