Cara Devlin is a reader, author, Netflix junkie, and history lover. She writes and reads across all genres, however her heart is reserved for romantic historical fiction and mystery.

Whatever she writes, you can bet that it will have a heavy dose of romance in it.

“The Trouble We Keep” is the first stand alone novel and was released in 2020. Emma is newly pregnant, all along, and is a fugitive from the law, and she has just run out of time.

After waiting an entire year for her estranged brother to send for her, a year where she did whatever it took to survive all on her own, Emma’s got no choice but to flee as a fugitive on a westward train that is headed to his last known location.

In Williams, Arizona, Dean Morelli (a surly saloon owner) is claiming that Emma’s brother robbed him and ran off, and he is not all that sure that Emma is anymore trustworthy. However Dean is not nearly as callous as he first seems. Once Emma stays in order to find her brother and prove his innocence, she starts to see the true Dean, who is vulnerable and guarded, yet protective, with a painful past of his own.

Emma knew that escaping from her old life would not be at all easy, however Dean and her new friends have just given her another chance. When the guy that she fears the most shows up and threatens it all, she will have to trust in herself, and in the sort of love that she never dreamed was possible, in order to fight for the future.

“Gladiator Steel” is the first story in the “Victors of the Fornix” series and was released in 2020. Victory has never tasted so sweet.

She has no choice but to go where her dominus sends him, as a non-citizen slave, and he has just sold her to a brothel underneath the Colosseum. After living in the countryside, the gritty and dark chambers under the emperor’s arena are just like a prison.

However the gladiators they’ve been reserved for aren’t all brutal savage beasts. Some are surprisingly sensuous. Some are tempting. And one is her true love. Marcellus, a gladiator-in-training at the Ludus Magnus.

The next victorious gladiator that walks through the fornix’s door could really be Marcellus, and she lives in hope of seeing him, of possibly some day leaving this place with him. However is he going to appreciate all she’s learned of pleasure here, or is he going to despise her for what she’s become?

It’s not a warm welcome in Sage Canyon. The mayor believed that he had hired a man, and he insists that Ellie can’t possibly stay. But giving up is not in her blood. While she settles into a precarious role as the town physician, she is faced with a growing list of challenges, which include what to make of the exasperating Jack Granger (ex-sheriff) who is just as handsome and mysterious as he is prone to trouble.

When this old newspaper article about this scandal in Boston gets shoved underneath her infirmary door, she knows that somebody knows her deepest secret. Ellie believed she could put the past firmly behind her, however now, the truth is going to test the strength of her patients’ trust, her new friendships, and her growing attraction to a man with a wounded heart of his own.
