Unsurprisingly, I forgot to draft a post for a cover reveal I was supposed to participate in yesterday, so I decided to combine it and the cover reveal that’s going on today into one post. That means this post is celebrating both Odd One Out by P.D. Atkerson and Remember My Royalty by Hannah E. Griggs.
Odd One Out
Samantha’s life has always been mind numbingly boring, with a half-brother that can’t hold down a job to save his life, a mom who’s declared war on a fellow homeschooling mom that’s snubbed her, and a dad who just wants to be left out of the drama.
When her thirteenth-birthday-wish is for something exciting to happen, she never expected it to come true.
What starts out as an average day hanging out with her best friend takes a turn when a mysterious stranger grabs her and gives her a cryptic message.
She doesn’t give it another thought, until she sees the mystery man on the news, murdered less than a block from where she’d seen him.
Sammy never expected her life to turn into some sort of spy movie.
Yet, whether she likes it or not, her life has just been turned upside down, and things may never be the same again.
I am so excited for this book. It sounds very interesting (and probably will include characters from my second-favorite P.D. Atkerson series.) It’s going to be published on November 1, and you can preorder it here.
Remember My Royalty
When Hamish McGregor and his sisters are forced to leave their home in the highlands of Scotland, they prepare to join their uncle in faraway Texas. Before leaving, they make an agreement to always remember that ‘s rioghal mo dhream, my race is royal.
However, they soon discover that remembering is not easy. For Hamish, forgetting his heritage lands him in the middle of a desperate revolution as the Texians fight for independence. Catriona, proud and responsible, has no patience for her brother’s shortcomings until she too needs grace. And Ealasaid, an invalid facing the hardship of frontier life, struggles to live up to a still more important title: daughter of the King of kings.
As fighting surrounds and comes between them, will the McGregors fall or will they turn to the King for victory? Will they remember their royalty as well as the sacrifice of the brave men at the Alamo?
If you like historical fiction, then I’m sure you’ll love Remember My Royalty. It comes out on March 6, 2026, and you can save it on Goodreads here.
