Caution to the Wind is coming out of dry dock this fall with a fresh edit and amped‑up emotion.
I’m forming a small Advance Review Crew who’ll get a free early copy (late Aug/early Sept). Reviews not required—but very appreciated.
Details + sign‑up: maryjeanadams.com/arc-sign-u…
The American Revolution wasn’t just colonists vs. redcoats—it was also France vs. Britain.
In my new post, I look at:
🇫🇷why France backed our rebellion,
💰the loans, weapons & ships that kept us fighting,
🧭and the French officer who helped make it happen.
There’s a reason an American flag still flies over Lafayette’s grave in Paris!

I would guess the majority of people under 25, maybe even 30, will not understand this without actually looking up the reference.
My 12th grade English Lit. teacher gave some really good recommendations outside of mandatory reading (this wasn’t mandatory, unfortunately).

First I can, then I can't, now I can again...I think I'll go pour another cup while they make up their minds. theepochtimes.com/health/mos…
Just finished rewrites to chapter 5 of Caution to the Wind. Only 24 more to go! #AmWriting #HistoricalFiction #AmericanRevolution #HistoricalRomance
2 a.m. epiphany: I don’t actually write “historical romance.” I write historical fiction with a strong romantic core—tall ships, battles, and a love story at the heart of it all.

Last night, my wife, Lynne, came home from Chicago where she was helping our son, Paul, move stuff into his apartment at UChicago for the fall.
We sat down on the sectional, and she told me she finished my book, “Divided Over the Declaration.” She said that it was a great book and that the chapter on the Declaration of Independence, the civil rights movement and MLK and John Lewis at the March on Washington was the best thing I had ever written.
I was profoundly touched. That is one of the best compliments she has ever given me and one that will stay with me forever. She also really inspired me to start another book.

A new chapter for an old love story: I’m revisiting several of my published American Historical Romance novels with a fresh, clean rewrite. I’ve already released The Chevalier and I’m diving into Caution to the Wind a little earlier than expected. Read more here: maryjeanadams.com/post/revis…

📜 Declaration of Independence - Full Text 📜
In CONGRESS, July 4, 1776.
The unanimous Declaration of the thirteen united States of America,
When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.
I redesigned my book cover last night. (Insomnia has its perks!) I like it soooo much more than my first effort.
My newest novel has been out all of 4 days and I'm considering redesigning the cover. I like this one, but I may be too close to it. amazon.com/Chevalier-His-Unl…
