RAYMORE, Mo. - s4story -- Author Rachel Homard follows her debut, military romance The Green Triangle with a thrilling sequel, fittingly titled, The Black Circle (TouchPoint Press, October 18, 2021). The Black Circle adds new perspectives to The Green Triangle Series by placing secondary characters Cole and Luciana at the center of its plot.

The Black Circle concretely draws connections between themes of bravery, forgiveness and sacrifice, as The Green Triangle Series celebrates US military soldiers and veterans. "My dad is a Green Beret, and my grandfather was a POW, and though I never walked in their shoes... my appreciation grows stronger every day," Homard says. The Black Circle moves beyond the type of sacrifice in The Green Triangle, as Homard says, "Though Cole was willing to sacrifice in The Green Triangle, he wasn't willing to forgive... You don't have to agree with every decision that a person makes to be able to love them." It is this type of bravery – the bravery to choose love– that Homard frames centrally In The Black Circle.
