Minerva Spencer's brief author bio will tell you she has been a criminal prosecutor, college history teacher, and B&B operator. What it doesn't tell you is she also worked as a dock worker, ice cream manufacturer, reader for the blind, motel maid, and bounty hunter. Okay, so the part about being a bounty hunter is a lie. Minerva does, however, know how to hypnotize a Dungeness crab, sew her own Regency Era clothing, knit a frog hat, juggle, rebuild a 1959 American Rambler, and gain control of Asia (and hold on to it) in the game of RISK. Minerva's first series, The Outcasts, is a Regency Era series that features uncommon protagonists who face exciting challenges and unusual situations. NOTORIOUS, book 1 in The Rebels of the Ton Series, will be out November 2020. Minerva also writes under the name S.M. LaViolette THE MUSIC OF LOVE is Book 1 in The Academy of Love Series, which will debut December 31, 2020. Read more at: www.MinervaSpencer.com
