Author Katherine Lowry Logan couples her psychology degree with lots of hands-on research when creating new settings and characters for her blockbuster Celtic Brooch series.

These cross-genre stories have elements of time travel, sci-fi, fantasy adventure, mystery, suspense, historical, and romance and focus on events in American history.

Her favorite research adventures include:

• attending the Battle of Cedar Creek reenactment and visiting Civil War sites in Richmond, Virginia (Sapphire Brooch),

• riding in a B-17 Flying Fortress bomber, and visiting Bletchley Park and the beaches at Normandy (Emerald Brooch),

• research in Paris, France, and Florence, Italy, with an art lesson in Florence (Pearl Brooch),

• a tour of New York’s Yankee Stadium and several hours with their historian (Diamond Brooch),

• wine tours in Napa (The Last MacKlenna),

• and following the Oregon Trail for the first book in the series (Ruby Brooch).

Katherine is the mother of two daughters and grandmother of five—Charlotte, Lincoln, James Cullen, Henry, and Meredith. She is also a marathoner and lives in Lexington, Kentucky, with her fluffy Goldendoodle, Maddie the Marauder.

5.0 out of 5 stars Battle of New Orleans
Reviewed in the United States on July 19, 2020

This is a difficult review to write because of the subject matter. Please take the author’s warning seriously. Before I get into my notes, let me say that I think that Katherine has done a magnificent job and I’ve given it 5-Stars. I’ve devoured the entire series; from the beginning it’s become one of my favorites buthis book is very different from the others. They all occurred during times of tragedy and/or war, but the emotional issues kicked everything up several notches.

It’s set during the time of the Battle of New Orleans. The attacks and rape scenes are brutal, and the actual battles are horrific. The previous stories have men who are genuine warriors but also very romantic. The intensity of the situations in this story basically stripped the characters of their emotional filters, resulting in language crude enough to be called vulgar. I normally would be offended by it, but in light of what they’re dealing with, it fits the setting. I was, however, unhappy with the characters “at home” continuing with a lot of that language. I hope it falls off to what’s normal for them in the future books. Still, it wasn’t enough to make me drop a star.

I now love Jean Lafitte and, if you read this I know you will too. The characters are genuine and the mystery of the brooches continues, although there are a few new revelations (hint). As always, Ms. Lowry-Logan’s research is extensive and accurate. I would encourage the reader to start at the beginning of the series if possible. The characters grow in number and you get to know them better with each volume. If you like time-travel and romance with a historical background, I believe you’ll enjoy this series.

4.0 out of 5 stars A good ride to the past

I have mixed emotions as to how to score this book. Story-wise it's a 4, characters are a +4, but the excessive foul language (not all for emotional stressing) and the crude horniness was at a 3.
That said, I'm a staunch Brooch lover so I Had to read it. I do enjoy the history trips and know that I can bank on the researched accuracy. Meeting Jean Lafite was special as I have an uncle born I New Orleans whom was rumored to be related. Now I see it wasn't Jean but could have been one of his brothers. I've always liked cowboy Rick and to "hear" him sing and be so romantic and caring was a treat. I do so hope he and Penny can curb their language in the future, especially with so many children in the books.
This was really two books in one, thanks for figuring out more about the brooches and keepers. I'm still confused but there will be "more on the other side" .
How about a story set in Scotland some time? That would fit my genealogy. Maybe concerning the family of our brawny Scotsmen's history.

5.0 out of 5 stars Another truly outstanding book in this series
Reviewed in the United States on May 11, 2022

I’ve read the first 10 books in this series over a three week period. I’m glad that I came to this book series late so I could serial read them. There are so many different characters to keep track of that it really helps to read the series in short order! I truly thank the author for proving such fantastic entertainment, while avoiding predictable outcomes (with the exception of happy endings). I thoroughly enjoyed the plot(s) of this book, and the characters, particularly Penny ( another strong and smart female protagonist). The warning in the front of this book should be heeded that it is much more graphic and raw than the other books, particularly the sex scenes. I’m not sure why the author chose to to do so, but I enjoyed the change. Yet, I’m glad that all the books aren’t written this way. This book is highly recommended, and I can’t wait to start book 11!

5.0 out of 5 stars Another amazing story
Reviewed in the United States on September 17, 2021

As I have said in all my reviews, this is absolutely a story to read...but start at the beginning with the Ruby Brooch.

Now, about this book. One this that truly sets Lowry Logan apart from so many other authors is that there is not a set formula for her books. You don't know what you are going to get each time you open the cover, but you can be pretty darn sure it will be better than great.

The Topaz Brooch is a darker, more gritty story in many ways. I glanced through the other reviews and noticed many people upset at the amount and description level of the sex in this book. I disagree. I feel like for these characters we wouldn't believe a sweet, kiss you and then dissappear into the bedroom type of scene. We lived with Penny through her traumas, the ugliness and rawness of it all. We need to live with her through the rawness of putting her life back together. Many times life isn't pretty and putting it back together after trauma can be even more graphic. I don't think this story would ha e been believable otherwise.

But that is just my opinion. Read it and form your own. Just remember if you are new to the series START WITH THE RUBY BROOCH!

5.0 out of 5 stars I had so much fun reading this book!

I had so much fun reading this book! I am going to quote a rhyme from the book: "Life is a cabaret, old chum… / Come taste the wine / come hear the band…” There is everything: pirates (there is a difference between pirates and privateers, who knew), a plot happening in New Orleans, a little bit of antics, a hefty dose of history, and of course new soul mates are found by the topaz brooch. Are they Penny and the mysterious Jean Laffitte?

As a bonus, we meet again with Sophia and Pete and they are part that goes to New Orleans. Enjoy the party!

I love these books i'm just coming to the end of The Topaz Brooch and loving it but I think Rick O'Grady is so vulgar and ignorant that I can't believe you are thinking of making him president of MacKlenna Corporation he strikes me as being unstable and a bully! The earlier books have all had a bit of passion and sex which is fitting to the love stories and the times but I find him disgusting! J L isn't much better the previous book when she was having the baby I literally flicked more pages than I read I have to say I enjoyed the pre O'Grady books a lot more.
