Scoundrel Second Edition
I am about to release the latest edition of Scoundrel. I know it seems as though I cannot keep my hands off of my books, but I have found in many ways it is more difficult to revise the older editions than it is to write a new book. It has taken me a little time to hone this skill. It is difficult to look at an older book and revise it for a new audience. In this last edition of Scoundrel I really worked to improve the pace of the story while maintaining the integrity of the characters and plot. The new version will be available the second week of June.

Pick up a Scoundrel
Scoundrel is on sale for $0.99 in e-book format from all major online bookstores.
From bestselling author Debra Dier comes a story filled with romance, intrigue, and memorable characters. Scoundrel is set during the glittering Regency period in England.
This edition includes revisions to characters and plot while maintaining the original story. Scoundrel is the first book in the Beyond the First Blush series.
Independent minded Emily Maitland knew her parents would never allow her younger sisters to attend the Season until she married. Since she had no intention of making a loveless match with some witless fop or sentencing her sisters to spinsterhood, she eloped with the perfect man. Major Sheridan Blake was her ideal husband: handsome, charming, dashing—and completely imaginary. She was stunned when a counterfeit Major Blake marched into her life and claimed her as his bride. Determined to vanquish the handsome rogue without revealing her own deception, Emily soon discovers the bewildering scoundrel is even more intriguing than any ideal from her imagination.
An agent for the Ministry, Simon St. James exploited Emily’s deception to suit his mission. He was searching for a traitor smuggling arms to Napoleon’s army. He found an auburn haired virago who could heal his wounded soul. Trapped in the web of his own deception, he would fight the devil himself for the chance of winning his lady.
Scoundrel was nominated for the Romantic Times (RT Reviews) Regency Historical Romance of the Year award.
“Debra Dier pens a delightfully original romance. Scoundrel is an enchanting book to treasure.”—RT Reviews

Beyond Forever New Edition Just Released
I would have been revising my books in bookstores if the store managers did not take a dim view of such actions. When I originally revised Beyond Forever, I was trying to balance the old book with my new concept of the story. In doing that balancing act, I realized I left some scenes in the book that were needed the first time around but not in the revised novel. I also decided I wanted to change the ending. Since I have the luxury of being able to make changes to the book, I plunged back into the novel and made the final revisions.
The new revised edition of Beyond Forever is leaner than the last edition. It also has a new ending, one I have been wanting to give it for a while.
I hope you like the changes.

Beyond Forever Stands Alone
Beyond Forever is a Regency Romance with a twist. It has a short section with a contemporary setting. Although characters in this book appear in several of my other Regency Romances, I have decided this book is too different to be included in the series, Beyond the First Blush.
