Introducing
Heart & Soul
Heart & Soul is the
third book
in The Minstrel
Series
(This is a connected book series - while each book
can stand alone, they are best enjoyed in
sequence.)
ROMANCE.
SUSPENSE. MUSIC. DANGER. HOT BRITISH
GUY
She's heartbroken.
He's
heartless.
Gabriele Baumann-Smith is deliriously in love with
her young husband Lennon.
Except, it turns
out that Lennon Smith isn't his real name. In fact,
he's full of secrets: a cottage on the southern British coast, an old
girlfriend and... an identical
twin brother.
Callum Jones—not his real name—can't believe his
brother's widow came to England. He'd warned Mick—Lennon—that
an inheritance could put
the girl's life in danger, and he was
right.
“Mrs. Smith” is the last thing Callum needs to worry
about right now. She's beautiful, sure, takes his breath away at times. But
when she
looks at him, who does she
see?
Gabriele's heart is battered and bruised. Can one
brother fix what the other left behind? And will they live long enough
to find
out?
BUZZ for Heart & Soul
"...this took
a turn for the spy/thriller genre, which surprised me, but still
carried
the strong romantic
flavor and wonderful accompanying music, like the first two books. I
think this is a great series and would recommend it to contemporary romance
fans." Denise Jaden, author of Foreign Exchange
"Another great
book by Lee! This one had action, wit and a forbidden
love! Love the characters and their interaction with each
other! Can't wait to see what she has in store for us next!" Tressa Sager,
Amazon reviewer
"I don't want
to give away what the danger is, but suffice it to say, it's a real and
plausible threat. Gabrielle is a good leading lady. She
doesn't back down from anything or anyone in this book, but she's still vulnerable,
making her well-rounded and likable." J Harrell, Amazon
reviewer

Lee Strauss'
thoughts on The Minstrel Series and Heart & Soul:
"My
musician husband and I just randomly started talking about the idea of working
on a project together - wouldn't it be great if we could collaborate and merge
our two artistic worlds? Writing and Music? That was the seed that started the
muse talking, and soon afterward The Minstrel Series was
born!
For Heart & Soul, I knew I wanted to move the series from Germany to England (next to
Ireland and Boston!) and that I needed a small coastal town not far from
London. I used Google Earth to examine the British coastline to search
for the perfect town and found it in Emsworth. Living in Germany
part-time has its advantages and one of them is its proximity to
England. My husband and I did a quick five day research trip. (It also came in
handy for the next book, a Christmas novella set in London - stay
tuned!)
Because of
the musical aspect of this series, I'm always on the prowl for songs and
singers. My connection to the singer-songwriter world via my musical husband
has been a big advantage. My husband's musical genes have also been down to our
kids, so it's exciting to involve my daughter Tasia in the project to be the
singing voice of Gabriele."
