Belated New Year greetings

Happy New Year. I feel there should be a statute of limitations (or perhaps a statue of limitations) on saying that. It’s been a hectic time, as I’m sure it has been for everyone. My plan to write at least two chapters of m WIP over my Christmas break didn’t go according to plan, thoughContinue reading “Belated New Year greetings”

A festive excerpt

Although not strictly a Christmas story (and released by Harlequin in July) A Wager for the Widow is set in Cornwall around Midwinter so I’ve taken the opportunity to include some of the preparations that would have taken place before an important feast day. In this excerpt Eleanor and Will are working on preparations forContinue reading “A festive excerpt”

Only a Winter’s Tale?

I think A Wager for the Widow was released at the wrong time of year because I’m definitely getting a more wintery feel to the evenings now and can all too clearly imagine Eleanor and Will shivering out in the gardens and cuddling up for warmth in this scene. Why not get hold of aContinue reading “Only a Winter’s Tale?”

If you want a reason why he should win checkContinue reading “Vote for Sir Hugh as Harlequin Hero of the Year”

Shameless self-promo

Harlequin are running a contest to find the Harlequin Hero of the year. The hero has to appear in a book published between October 2014 and September 2015 which means both Hugh and Will are eligible. The top sixteen heroes will face off to find hero of the year (and who wouldn’t want to watchContinue reading “Shameless self-promo”

I’ve never heard one called that before!

Warning- links in this post contain language that may offend. Since starting writing I’ve searched for all manner of things I never expected to. If my internet use is being monitored I’m sure the powers that be are building up a rather odd picture of my interests. The other week I was searching for methodsContinue reading “I’ve never heard one called that before!”

Voila! Cover Reveal

Falling for Her Captor is being published in French in October and I can now reveal the cover. I love the close up as it shows the lovely details of the model’s clothes, and of course those earrings that I still covet. The link to buy from Amazon.fr is here Dans Les Bras de L’Ennemi for anyoneContinue reading “Voila! Cover Reveal”

A month down the line

A Wager for the Widow has been out for a month. Yesterday I had a wonderful review on Cataromance which described the book as ‘a fantastic historical romance that sweeps readers back to the past and enchants them with its intoxicating blend of intrigue, adventure, passion and pathos.’ I’ve had an amazing response for the bookContinue reading “A month down the line”
