ID Johnson creates characters you'll want to have as your best friends with antagonists you'll love to hate. Her love for all things princess-y compelled her to write her first medieval romance at fifteen, and she hasn't stopped writing since. Now, her plots are a little more complex, her topics a little more mature, and her romances often more intense, but she's never lost the love she felt the first moment she breathed life into a character over twenty years ago. If you love feisty paranormal heroines, damsels who cause distress, or historical ladies who know how to light up a room, then pull up a seat, get out your eReader, and meet ID Johnson's friends. Soon enough, they'll be your friends, too.

Cordia

Torn between the man she loves, and the man who loves her....
Cordia Pike has always been strong-willed, but she knows her family expects her to accept the hand of her childhood friend, Jaris Adams, in marriage. As the conflict between the states continues to escalate, Cordia hopes it will last long enough for her to find a way to free herself without breaking her friend’s heart.
On the eve of war, as the men prepare to ride off to battle, Cordia meets a mysterious newcomer. There’s just something about Will Tucker that she finds both intriguing and dangerous. Under the guise of caring for his sister, she makes a plan to write to him. Perhaps by the time the war is over, Will’s feelings for Cordia will have blossomed into the love she is starting to feel for the Union soldier.
But war is evil and complex, and by the time it begins to wind its way through Southwest Missouri, one of these men will be dead, and Cordia will find herself betrothed to a man she loathes. Will she have the courage to follow her heart and stand up for what she believes in like so many others, or will she do as she is told and acquiesce to a loveless marriage to a heartless traitor?
Hope
Forbidden love on the frontier....
Hope Tucker is content staying in her hometown of Lamar, Missouri, focusing on her life as a schoolteacher instead of finding love. But when she hears the truth about her parents' romance during the Civil War, how her mother Cordia set out to find her father Will after a deadly battle, Hope is determined to have that sort of adventure as well.
Accepting a teaching position in a frontier town in Texas isn't quite what she was expecting--there are no marauders or gunslingers--but there is one man with a shady past, and when the entire town tells her to stay away from Judah Lawless, Hope finds herself drawn to him.
Is Judah dangerous, or will Hope finally find the romance she's been looking for?
 


Forever Love

Hope spotted Ginny across the yard, sitting underneath a tree with another little girl, a book open on each of their laps. "Would you mind if I went and said hello to Ginny before I help?" she asked Caroline, thinking she'd meet the other ladies later.


"Please do," the mother replied. "She'll be so happy to see you."


Hope crossed the yard, getting to within a few feet before Ginny hopped up with excitement. Opening her arms, Hope leaned down and wrapped her up. "How are you?"


"Miss Tucker! You came! I'm so excited to see you!"


She couldn't help but laugh at the enthusiasm. "I'm so happy to see you, Ginny. And this is your friend Liza?" The other girl, with dark hair and a smile with a gap in the middle top, nodded. Hope was glad she remembered her name. She'd learned so many all of a sudden, it was difficult to keep everyone straight. "It's lovely to meet you, Liza."


Liza smiled, but didn't answer, and Hope assumed she must just be shy.
