Thank you so much for the kind words! Will & Martin's book will come out mid-2019ish. It doesn't have a title (or a plot, for that matter, because I haven't written it yet).
Cat Sebastian
Ha! When you win the lottery please have your people call my people. :D :D
Cat Sebastian
In my mind she quietly settles down with someone with a minimum of fuss, which isn't good enough to sustain a plot. So, no book for Sarah, alas. I do have a f/f coming out in 2019ish, though, so there's that!
Cat Sebastian
There aren't any plans for audiobooks for that book as far as I know, but thank you for the compliment!
Cat Sebastian
Good question (and sorry I'm only seeing it now). It was Courtenay who put that picnic together, so he wouldn't have know to invite Sarah. And Sarah would have gouged out her eyeballs sooner than hanging out with her brothers, their rich boyfriends, and a couple of aristocrats tbh :) I don't have a plan for Sarah's story. In my mind, she would not allow enough drama into her life to sustain a story. (I do have a f/f coming out in 2019ish, so that's happening, just not for Sarah.)

The rights for Ruin of a Rake and Lawrence Browne were purchased by a company that only chose to license the recordings in the US, as far as I know. So this means people in other countries haven't been able to purchase them. I know it's very frustrating!
Cat Sebastian
It was totally an accident but the timelines work out so it could be the same person. Norton's now my guy when I need a libertine to do a walk on role.
Cat Sebastian
No, I'm definitely not done with m/m historicals. I have another one coming out in *checks watch* three weeks! And then another likely at the end of the year, and another the following spring :D
Cat Sebastian
This is 100% what I intended with Lady Montbray and Anne, and honestly my biggest regret in writing The Soldier's Scoundrel is that I didn't make this totally clear. They're together, and I meant for them to have been together since before the beginning of Soldier's Scoundrel :) :) :)
Cat Sebastian
Ha! You're the third person to ask me this. I don't have plans to write Simon or William's story, but I haven't ruled Simon out at some point in the future. I'm so glad you enjoyed Ruin, because I loved writing it, as well as the rest of the series. It is indeed the last of the Turner series (except for a couple of shorts) but I have another m/m Regency series starting in December (the Sedgwicks). It's basically the same universe as the Turner series.
Cat Sebastian
Thank you so much for your kind words about Ruin! It's the last full length book in this series, but there will be a couple of shorts. To be perfectly fair, the next m/m series (the Sedgwicks) will be pretty similar in tone and concept to the Turner series.
Cat Sebastian
I see somebody did this, and if it was you, THANK YOU!!! Now it's magically like this on Amazon, too, because book fairies.
Cat Sebastian
There isn't a series title for those three books, but I think I've been calling it the Turner series. (I learned my lesson and the next two series have proper titles!) The order of publication for the Turner books is indeed the chronological order of the stories, but they are stand alones and can be read in any order.
Cat Sebastian
Thank you!! The audio for Ruin of a Rake looks like it'll be out in September.
Cat Sebastian
The paperback comes out about a month after the e-book, so August!
Cat Sebastian
Sure! Soldier's Scoundrel, Lawrence Browne Affair, and Ruin of a Rake are a series (in that they share a universe) but each is a standalone; they can be read in any order but the order of publication is the chronological order of the stories. I don't have an officials series title for those three books but when people ask I'm calling it the Turner/Courtenay series. I hope that helps!
Cat Sebastian
Hi Dizzy! The Ruin of a Rake is coming out in July and it's the story of Lord Courtenay and Julian Medlock (Standish's brother), both of whom you meet in The Lawrence Browne Affair. It ought to have a cover and back cover copy within the next week or two. It's a full length novel and is part of the Soldier's Scoundrel/Lawrence Browne series. I probably ought to put this information on my website, so thanks for the reminder :) :) :)
Cat Sebastian
Sure! Courtenay's book is coming out in July. It's called The Ruin of a Rake. Courtenay's love interest is Standish's brother, Julian. Thanks so much for saying nice things about my books, and I'm so glad you enjoyed them :) :) :)
Cat Sebastian
Hi Audrey! I am indeed planning an m/f but it doesn't involve side characters from this series, alas. Also, I just finished writing an f/f short featuring a very minor character from TSS (Molly, the lady's maid). I kind of wish I could think of stories for all the characters I've most liked writing (I'm thinking of Sarah, who I adore; also the Wraxhalls, who deserve better than what they got at the end of The Soldier's Scoundrel). Thank you for your kind words :) :) :)
Cat Sebastian
I'm so glad you liked both books! If I find out that there's going to be an audiobook, I'll definitely post it here, facebook, and my newsletter (https://tinyletter.com/catsebastian). Thank you for your kind words!!
