#WhyIReadHistoricals #WhyIWriteHistoricals

Today is Historical Romance Day all over the Internet. Those who love historical romance, both readers and writers, are posting memes. We're using the hashtags #whyIwritehistoricals and #whyIreadhistoricals.


(It's so hard to type those without putting spaces between the words!)




Anyway, go on Twitter or Facebook or Tumbler or wherever you hang out and get involved! Too many people haven't

Fave historical novels + a #giveaway of Lady of the Flames

I love recommending books! So that's what I'm doing today -- talking about some of my favorite historical novels over at Embracing Romance.

I'm hoping for some book recommendations in return (pretty please; there can never be enough awesome books to read).

My post at Teatime Tattler, a #giveaway, and coming soon: TRR's summer party

Today I'm the guest of the Bluestocking Belles at their Teatime Tattler. They ask for a piece of original writing, so I had fun doing this one!! It's related to Lady of the Flames, but the character who's speaking is Dunstan Tull, the compiler of an encyclopedia of not-so-mythical beings. Some of his definitions are found at the beginning of my Bayou Gavotte books, which take place 200 years

Caricatures, #Giveaway, and a New #Regency #Romance

As usual, I've been very remiss about keeping up with this blog. It's really just an announcement board, but I don't seem to be able to manage even that. Mea culpa...





Today, April 28th, one of my old guest posts was featured on the Quizzing Glass blog. It's about the caricaturists of the Regency era, a topic which fascinates me.

So here's the list, since I won't have time to blog about each one separately:

I will be at Embracing Romance on March 23rd--release day--with a giveaway.On

COVER REVEAL! LADY OF THE FLAMES

At last I get to reveal the cover! I love the cover and I'm very happy with the book, too -- it was a lot of fun to write, because it's a Regency with magic in it.I love magic, which can be wonderful, but...it also has dark and devious tendencies. ;~)) There are also spies, a hobgoblin, and a suspenseful escape through London at night.

Anyway, ta-da!

A Job in a Haunted House? Um, no. Or maybe yes. #Giveaway

The heroine of The Christmas Knot, in the boxed set Captivated By His Kiss, doesn't have much choice!

I'm honored to be the guest today of author, Ella Quinn. Ella writes sexy Regencies, and she invited me to her blog today, where I talk about how desperate one would have to be to take a job in a haunted house. And there's a giveaway! :)
