And her special appearance today comes at a perfect time. Her newest book, Shadowed of Grace, releases on January 1 (and I can't WAIT to read it). You can learn more about this amazing historical at her website at www.caraputman.com - or just go ahead and order it at http://www.amazon.com/Shadowed-Grace-Story-Monuments-Men-ebook/dp/B00H4EIL88/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1388235890&sr=8-1&keywords=shadowed+by+grace - the Kindle price is only 2.99!!!
Okay, okay, so let's see who Cara has as her most memorable character.
I love Rachel Justice (from Shadowed by Grace) because she is a woman who takes a huge risk to protect someone she loves and do something she believes is important. She finds herself in Italy as a war photojournalist because she is desperate to save her mother who is dying from tuberculosis. The search takes many twists, but she does all she can out of deep love for her mother.
I love this character already. I ordered Shadowed by Grace today and can't wait to meet Rachel!! So writers, how do you make your character take risks? Readers, do you have an example of a good book you've read where the main character must take risks for the ones she loves?

I'm going to leave you with a quote from one 'risk-taker' like Rachel.

This book is so good, I can't wait for readers to discover like I have! Cara is at her BEST when she's writing WWII stories. So glad to have you here on the Alley!! :)
Cara,
It's always a pleasure to chat with you (and brag about you too :-)
I was tickled to purchase your book this morning. SO excited!! I love the story of the Monuments Men!!
Rachelle,
that quote means so much more knowing who the author of it is, doesn't it?
Rachelle, I'm so glad you're enjoying it! That's real encouragement for an author. :-)
Casey, you are sweet. and I appreciate your feedback on the draft!
Pepper, I hope you enjoy it as much as I'm enjoying your WWI story :-)
Cara,
