The Tarnished Moon
by Maxine McCoy
Genre: Christian Historical Romance
Petra Nilsen will do anything to keep her father safe, including leaving her beloved home in Norway
and traveling to America to marry a man she doesn’t love. During their hazardous journey, they’ll
face a storm at sea, all the dangers of the wild west, and an assassin paid for by her father’s enemies.
To ensure their safety, Brigham Young sent one of his strongest and bravest men to accompany them to
Great Salt Lake. Now, added to all the other perils, Petra’s in danger of losing her heart to her protector.
Left alone on the prairie at the death of his father and raised by the Sioux Indians, William Barrett is as
savvy and as tough as they come. He was sent to protect Petra Nilsen and he’ll keep her safe at all cost.
He actually enjoys his responsibilities more than he should, but when it comes to handing her over to
her fiancé at the end of the journey, that is another matter.
The character for Maxine’s next book resides in the space between thought and word.
Maxine has traveled to every state in the United States and five other countries. She has lived in six
different states and many cities. Along the way, she fostered a love for people—their customs and
folkways, their fortunes and follies.
As an Anthropologist, Maxine developed a deep respect for the Native American people and their
cultures. When she worked as a counselor in the criminal justice system, she learned how truly complex
individuals can be. As a Genealogist, she researches her ancestors, and studies their lives and
histories.
These interests flavor her fictional adventures. The psychological dimensions of her characters, the
backgrounds furnished by places she’s known and loved, and the yesterdays of her heritage all come
together as material for her stories.
Maxine currently resides in southeastern Idaho with her tiny Yorkie, Sassy, who lives up to her
name.
