As October meets November …
Fabulous blog from Jan Brigden in which she mentions her day in Leicester with our RNA Chapter and meeting up with New Romantics Press. Don’t be a stranger, Jan, as they say . . .
It’s been a couple of months since my last blog. I haven’t been feeling well and September was all a bit of a struggle for one reason or another, so it’s nice to reflect on how busy October has been and to acknowledge all the love and support I’ve had and continue to have from family, friends an...

Happy Samhain (Halloween) – party photos, novel extract and free download
Just wanted to share what 3 of New Romantics Press got up to last night – great fun, even if my halloween makeup didnt look much different to my everyday.
As a writer of Scottish romances, I thought I’d blog about a halloween party featured in my latest novel – Girl in the Castle –
I hope you enjoy the extract. I’ve also added some photos I took at a Halloween party last night and, to celebrate Halloween, there’s a FREE download featured at the end of this blog post.

An Englishwoman’s Guide to the Cowboy by June Kearns #Fridayread
Lovely review for June’s novel.
This was a book I didn’t want to finish. A romantic adventure set in the American wild west in 1867, in which the dignity and etiquette of an English lady is contrasted dramatically with the frank, masculine power of a half-breed cowboy. But this is an oversimplification. Annie Haddon is no simpering socialite. Tolerated and put upon by her harsh Aunt Bea and treated abominably by her spoilt cousin Charlotte, she is the poor spinster expected to r...

(York) Tea for Two – and a Whole Host of RNA Writers
A brilliant write up of the RNA York Afternoon Tea by author Sharon Booth. Thanks for the mention, Sharon . . .
So there we were, Julie Heslington and me, standing outside The Royal York Hotel, all ready to go inside and brave our first “proper” Romantic Novelists’ Association event. Julie had been to a couple of conferences before but, for me, it was my first RNA event, full stop. The York Tea. A gathering of well-known, well-established romance writers, who would wonder w...

Today I’m hosting author Lizzie Lamb as she chats about the places that help bring her novels to life…
Jo did a great job with my blog post back in June, but I was so busy, I forget to reblog it.
JO LAMBERT - A WRITER'S JOURNEY
Many thanks to Jo for hosting me on her blog and giving me an opportunity to share my novels with you. Readers have told me that they love my descriptions of Scotland and Norfolk. And, I must admit, often a location is the starting place for my novels and then the characters appear in my head, crowding...

In 1994, twenty-one-year-old Evelyn Taylor left England to backpack around Australia. When she stopped off in the dusty outback town of Kununurra, she never expected to fall in love with the place – and the people. But Joe Sullivan captured her heart, and when her fun-filled year in Australia came to an end, saying goodbye to him was the hardest thing she’d ever done.
In 2017, Evelyn’s daug...
