ABOUT THE BOOK

 

Title: Facing the Enemy  

Series: Roxbury Heirs #1  

Author: Paige Edwards  

Publisher: Covenant Communications  

Release Date: April 4, 2022  

Genre: Romantic Suspense, Christian 

 

Lady Elise Henderson lives two separate lives. At home in Scotland, she’s the titled daughter of the Marquess of Roxbury, an heiress in her own right. In London, however, she’s Elise Taylor, a top MI6 operative for the “home office.” But when a devastating accident threatens to end her career, Elise is left with far too much time for self-reflection and the regret of a decision made long ago that features one man: fellow MI6 agent Harry Benson. 

Harry Benson, the son of servants, has loved Elise for the better part of a decade. But life took them on separate journeys until their worlds converged once more. An immediate assignment to the Scottish Borders leaves Harry little time to make provisions for his small, rambunctious son, Sammy. Harry knows only one person he can rely on for the boy’s care—Elise. When Elise brings Sammy to her ancestral estate, she never imagines that a nemesis from her past looms in the shadows, hungry for revenge. Stalked at every turn, Elise and Harry discover that fighting their feelings for one another is futile, but can they survive long enough to get another shot at true love?

INTERVIEW WITH AUTHOR PAIGE EDWARDS

Can you tell us a little about yourself? 

 

I'm originally from Southern California but have spent the last twenty-plus years in the mid-Atlantic. I have an interior design degree and have worked professionally in that field. I married my high school sweetheart, and we have three grown children and seventeen grandchildren.

What do you do besides writing? 

 

I'm heavily involved in our region's Interfaith Community Council, and I sit on the VCCI board. VCCI settles incoming refugees (helps them find jobs, translators, lodging, furnishings, etc.).

What was your favorite part of researching for this book? 

 

Besides visiting Scotland and eavesdropping on the locals to get the dialect right, it was probably researching the jet suit, digging through patents to locate an electronic jet engine, and finding an ultralight flying machine that didn't crash in Scotland's gale-force wind.

Do you have images you can share that come close to how you picture your characters? 

 

I almost always put together an inspiration board because they help me get into the writing zone. 

These pictures are really fun because my readers did a celebrity casting, and I think they did a fantastic job. Compare them to my inspiration pictures.

What are some songs that you listened to or inspired you while writing your book? 

 

You're going to laugh, but I listened to bagpipes, Scottish reels, and ballads off and on while I wrote Facing the Enemy. Essentially, the main character reconnects with her family and Scottish roots after almost a decade of separation.

What message would you like readers to ultimately take away from the book? 

 

That God has a divine plan for each of us if we are willing to let Him guide us.

What can we look forward to coming from you in the future? 

 

Lots of fun things are in the works. I have an anthology coming out this September (2022) called Sinister Secrets with Traci Abramson and Clair Poulson. In addition, I just submitted the 4th manuscript in my Pressley-Coombes series to my publisher, and I started the second novel in the Roxbury Heirs series—which I think readers will really love.
