Faye Hall
Carnal Transgression
Would you break the law to protect the woman you love from a killer?
Constance Dunbar is desperate to discover who killed her sister. Her plea for help is ignored by the local police, so she advertises for a private investigator. Seamus Tynedale answers the ad, and she immediately recognizes him as the friendly stranger whose arms held her so tenderly as she wept after her sister’s death.
Seamus longed to be reunited with the dark-haired beauty who’d kissed him in the churchyard. When he ends up working for her as a private investigator, he knows that his position as a police constable needs to remain a secret due to her mistrust of the department.
As Seamus hunts for the murderer, he finds himself lured into a den of secrets and lies tracing back eighteen years to Ireland, and it all seems to be connected to Constance. Seamus delves into Constance’s past, hoping to understand the secrets she’s so intent on keeping hidden. What he finds is a passion that ignites his heart and captivates his senses.
When Constance’s life comes under threat, Seamus has to choose between following the law and protecting the woman he loves from a killer. Will he be able to safeguard Constance, or will he lose her to the evil that seems to have followed her to Australia?

Review: Carnal Transgression by Faye Hall
If you recall I interviewed Faye Hall some years back.
Faye continues to be a force in the romance genre.
What I like about her romance books is that she writes about historical romance and includes her local area.
I check in on Faye's blog from time to time and was happy to learn of the personal history that Faye used in her latest romance titled Carnal Transgression.
You might recall that many Irish emigrants to Australia were free settlers, and, women often broke boundaries doing things differently or new.
The heroine, Constance Dunbar, is strong and determined to find out who killed her sister. Constance advertises for a private investigator. All the while, the hero Seamus Tynedale, is starting out, in a new country, and hiding his profession while protecting Constance.

Author Bio:
Faye Hall spent her early years listening to stories about the families – including her own – who settled townships in and around her hometown in North Queensland, Australia. The local townspeople, including her own parents, told her stories of corruption and slavery, along with family secrets and forbidden love.
Desperate to remember what she’d been told, along with her already growing love of writing, Faye began to write about the history of her local area. Never could she have imagined the history of her small hometown in Australia would become a growing list of published books.
Faye’s passionate stories combine controversial subjects and provocative encounters as her characters struggle to survive the lifestyle in early rural townships throughout Australia. She explores slavery and abortion, drug addiction, and murder, as well as forbidden love and passionate affairs of the heart.
When she’s not writing, Faye enjoys sharing a bottle of wine with her husband in their ever-growing garden and encouraging the varied interests of their combined family of nine children.
