Welcome to day twenty-five
of March SWEET Madness—a month long party to celebrate the upcoming release of
my novel, SWEET
MADNESS, available April 2, 2013.
Today I am featuring a
very favorite author of mine, not just because of her writing, but because she
is such a genuinely lovely person. It’s her writing you are here to read about
though, right? Well, her latest book, SEVEN NIGHTS IN A ROGUE’S BED recently
won the best historical at the Australian Romance Readers Convention and is a
finalist, along with my own Sweet Deception, for the Gayle Wilson
Award of Excellence for published historical romance! Luckily, Anna and I
are both genteel ladies…there will be no fisticuffs, I promise!
But it made it easy
for me to pick which book to feature!
More about the book:
Will a week of
seduction...
Desperate to save her
sister's life, Sidonie Forsythe has agreed to submit herself to a terrible
fate: Beyond the foreboding walls of Castle Craven, a notorious, hideously
scarred scoundrel will take her virtue over the course of seven sinful nights.
Yet instead of a monster, she encounters a man like no other. And during this
week, she comes to care for Jonas Merrick in ways that defy all logic-even as a
dark secret she carries threatens them both.
...Spark a lifetime
of passionate surrender?
Ruthless loner Jonas
knows exactly who he is. Should he forget, even for a moment, the curse he
bears, a mere glance in the mirror serves as an agonizing reminder. So when the
lovely Sidonie turns up on his doorstep, her seduction is an even more delicious
prospect than he originally planned. But the hardened outcast is soon moved by
her innocent beauty, sharp wit, and surprising courage. Now as dangerous
enemies gather at the gate to destroy them, can their new, fragile love
survive?

Sweet Enemy
Beakers and ball gowns don't mix, so when lady
chemist, Miss Liliana Claremont, goes undercover as a husband-hunter to
investigate Lord Geoffrey Wentworth, the earl whose family she suspects
murdered her father, romance isn't part of her formula. But it only takes one
kiss to start a reaction she can't control...

Chapter HERE...
Sweet Deception
Lady criminologist, Miss Emma Wallingford, unknowingly finds herself tangled up in the dangerous final mission of Lord Derick Aveline, a spy who also happens to be her long-lost first love. But when deception, however sweet, is the name of the game, no one can be trusted. And every love--and every life--is at risk.

And don’t forget SWEET MADNESS,
coming April 2, 2013!
There’s a fine line between love and insanity…
Ever since her husband’s sudden and tragic
death, Lady Penelope Bridgeman has committed herself to studying the maladies
of the mind, particularly treating traumatized soldiers of the Napoleonic Wars.
It is this expertise that brings the Marquess of Bromwich’s family to her door.
Gabriel Devereaux’s unexpected and
unpredictable episodes are unlike any Penelope has studied. The once proud
soldier has been left shaken and withdrawn, but she manages to build a fragile
trust between them. Strangely, Gabriel seems completely lucid when not in the
grips of his mania, and in the calm between bouts, she is surprised by how much
she is drawn to him.
Despite his own growing feelings, Gabriel knows
that he is fit for no one, and is determined to keep Penelope away from his
descent into madness. But even though she knows firsthand the folly of loving a
broken man, Penelope cannot stop herself from trying to save him, no matter the
cost.
