Sally MacKenzie
Latest Title: What Ales the Earl
Sally MacKenzie, a USA Today best-selling author and D. C. native, writes funny, sexy romances set in her favorite time period (other than the present): Regency England. Two of her books—”The Naked King” and “Bedding Lord Ned”—made ALA Booklist’s 101 Best Romance Novels of the Last 10 Years: 2017 Edition. A former federal regulation writer, recovering parent volunteer, mother of four (and grandma to three) and middle-of-the-pool Masters swimmer, Sally loves to research historic sites and hike through—and frequently get lost in—the English countryside. “The Merry Viscount,” the second in her Widow’s Brew series, releases September 24.
Charis Michaels
Latest Title: All Dressed in White
Charis Michaels is a USA Today best-selling author who believes a romance novel is a long, entertaining answer to the question, “So, how did you two meet?” She loves making up new ways for fictional characters to almost not meet, but live happily ever instead. She grew up on a peach farm in Texas and gave tours at Disney World in college, but now can be found raising her family and writing love stories from her screened-in porch in Northern Virginia. Her latest book is “All Dressed in White.”

underneath the file name (just above the picture). Spammers need not apply.
- Copyrights: All pictures were taken by amateur photographer Bruce Guthrie (me!) who retains copyright on them. Free for non-commercial use with attribution. See the [Creative Commons] definition of what this means. "Photos (c) Bruce Guthrie" is fine for attribution. (Commercial use folks including AI scrapers can of course contact me.) Feel free to use in publications and pages with attribution but you don't have permission to sell the photos themselves. A free copy of any printed publication using any photographs is requested. Descriptive text, if any, is from a mixture of sources, quite frequently from signs at the location or from official web sites; copyrights, if any, are retained by their original owners.
- Spiders: The system has identified your IP as being a spider. I love well-behaved spiders! They are, in fact, how most people find my site. Unfortunately, my network has a limited bandwidth and pictures take up bandwidth. Spiders ask for lots and lots of pages and chew up lots and lots of bandwidth which slows things down considerably for regular folk. To counter this, you'll see all the text on the page but the images are being suppressed. Also, a number of options like merges are being blocked for you.
Note: Permission is NOT granted for spiders, robots, etc to use the site for AI-generation purposes. I'm excited for your ability to make revenue from my work but there's nothing in that for my human users or for me.
If you are in fact human, please email me at guthrie.bruce@gmail.com and I can check if your designation was made in error. Given your number of hits, that's unlikely but what the hell.

I still have them though. If you want me to email them to you, please send an email to guthrie.bruce@gmail.com
