#RockingRomance with Circles of Fate by @psthib #BYNR

Today on The Maze, author Pamela Thibodeaux shares her thoughts for a Rocking Romance, along with her latest release, Circles of Fate!

1. What romantic event would you like to see this year? 
An engagement (maybe even mine!)

2. Name your favorite romantic tip.  
Never stop letting your spouse, partner or significant other know how much you care… notes on the coffee pot, cards, flowers, or gifts “just because”, seemingly insignificant things mean a whole lot.
 
3. What Rocking romance do you find intriguing (Arthur and Guinevere are mine)? 
Goldie Hawn and Kurt Russell, or any other long term Hollywood romance.
 
4. What is your Rocking Romance flower? 
A bouquet of wildflowers
 
5. Plan one romantic evening; what would you do? 
I’ve experienced many romantic evenings, but one…. A weekend getaway in a luxury hotel with all the trimmings….couples massage, dinner and dancing in a semi-formal atmosphere, room service, Jacuzzi tub. I think that would be the ultimate romantic evening!


Circles of Fate Synopsis:

Set at the tail end of the Vietnam War era, Circles of Fate takes the reader from Fort Benning, Georgia to Thibodaux, Louisiana. A romantic saga, this gripping novel covers nearly twenty years in the lives of Shaunna Chatman and Todd Jameson. Constantly thrown together and torn apart by fate, the two are repeatedly forced to choose between love and duty, right and wrong, standing on faith or succumbing to the world’s viewpoint on life, love, marriage and fidelity. With intriguing twists and turns, fate brings together a cast of characters whose lives will forever be entwined. Through it all is the hand of God as He works all things together for the good of those who love Him and are called according to His purpose.
Excerpt:

 “What?” Todd Jameson’s hand trembled so hard the phone he held threatened to slip through his numb fingers. He wiped a sweaty palm down his thigh and grabbed the receiver then switched ears. The anguish in Mike Ferel’s voice made the pleasantries they shared the first few minutes of the call seem like a distant conversation.
 
“I’m sorry, Todd, to be the one to tell you this, especially after what you’ve been through this last year.”
 
He’d spent nine months at war, nine months facing and dealing with death, but not even those things prepared him for the death of his hopes and dreams in nine short minutes. “When?”
 
A heavy exhale preceded Mike’s answer. “Margaret died six months ago. Shaunna married three months after.”
 
She said she loved me. He hadn’t meant to utter the thought aloud, but somehow the words slipped past the knot in his throat.
 
“She cried a long time after you left, didn’t understand why you never wrote or called.”
 
Though his voice held no accusation, Todd heard the chastisement in Mike’s tone. “I...”
 
He blinked hard and cleared his throat. “What was I supposed to do, blurt out my feelings over the phone or in a letter and ask her to wait? I thought she was too young to go through that, especially with the war and all. Not knowing if, when, I’d get sent over there was hard enough on me; she didn’t need that on her heart. What if I didn’t come back? I couldn’t fathom putting her through such an ordeal. Not with all the responsibilities she shouldered from her mother’s illness.”
 
“I’m sorry.”
 
Todd raked a hand over his face. “Is she happy? Is he a good man?”
 
“Seems to be.”
