First Time on KU! Two Holiday Regency Romances!

Now on KU for the first time, two of my holiday novellas, The Twelfth Night Wager and The Holly & The Thistle. Get in the mood for the season!

"Loved the sizzling attraction between these two and the little Christmas magic that bought the two together. The Twelfth Night Wager had everything I could ask for. Wonderful romance, likeable characters, and a sweet storyline!" ​— Lilly Pond Reads

"...a wonderful addition to any romance lover's collection and in this reviewer's humble opinion, goes best with some chocolates and a nice glass of wine." — Breath of Life Reviews

Best Victorian Romances!

Best Victorian Romances...romances set in the Victorian era, generally from 1837 (the year Victoria became Queen) to 1901 (the year of her death). The common perception of the period is that the Victorians were “prudish, hypocritical, stuffy and narrow-minded”. But these perceptions are not always accurate, particularly when the British were traveling and learning much about other cultures, as you will see in these romances. See the list.

Best Historical Romance Trilogies

It takes talent to write a great historical romance novel, but to write three in a row and make them all worthy reads is a challenge. Of course, I recognize this omits some wonderful single titles and some great multi-book series, but if you like to read trilogies, as I do, take a look at my list of the ones I recommend HERE.

Best Medieval Romances!

Who among us ladies hasn’t dreamed of a knight in shining armor? Or, living in a time when valor prevailed and honorable men did great deeds and women of character loved them. (I did say we were dreaming, right?) These historical romances will take you there.

Since the medieval period in European history spanned the 5th century to the 15th century, all the stories on my list take place during that time; however, some Scottish, Irish, Viking and Pirate/Privateer historicals from that time period not on this list can be found on those specific “Best Lists” (links on the right side of my blog).

See the new "Best Medieval Romances" list HERE.

 – Chicks, Rogues & Scandals

With the collection you get A Secret Scottish Christmas, book 4 in the Agents of the Crown series, so you'll be ready for book 5, my new release.
The long-awaited Rogue's Holiday, the story of Robbie Powell, the bad boy of the Powell family, book 5 in the Agents of the Crown series.
Robert Powell’s work as a spy saves the Cabinet ministers from a gruesome death and wins him accolades from George IV. As a reward, the king grants him a baronetcy and a much-deserved holiday at the Royal Pavilion in Brighton. Robbie thinks to indulge in brandy, cards, good horseflesh and women.
 
But when Muriel, Dowager Countess of Claremont, learns of Sir Robert’s intended destination, she begs a favor…to watch over an “errant child” who is the grandniece of her good friend living in the resort town. Little does Robbie know that Miss Chastity Reynolds is no child but a beautiful hoyden who is seemingly immune to his charms.

He prefers his work for the Crown.

A bluestocking hoyden, she craves adventure and loves the world of her statesman uncle, who is often called upon by the Crown for difficult tasks. When her uncle leaves for Paris, she goes with him. But, once there, who should appear in King Louis’ court but the mysterious Lord Ormond?
 
Lady Mary fears her growing fascination with the rake and resents his interference with her plan to uncover the truth behind a treacherous plot to take down the newly restored Bourbon king.

When the King of Scots Married a Saint...

There once lived a fierce warrior King of Scots who married a young Saxon princess who was destined to become Scotland’s only royal saint. 

The love story of Margaret of Wessex, and Malcolm Canmore (Malcolm III) of Scotland is truly the story of the beauty and the beast. Both Margaret and Malcolm are characters in my new medieval romance, Rebel Warrior, set in Scotland in the late 11th century and released just this week! See the Rest of the Story.
