I write romance novels, including medieval romances as Claire Delacroix, and contemporary and paranormal romances as Deborah Cooke. I also am an avid knitter and sewist.
This month, Apple is requiring compliance with the EU’s Digital Services Act (DSA) in order for books to be sold in EU countries. As I am not a trader and choose not to be one, my books will be removed from sale from Apple’s online stores in EU territories this month.
There are a few reasons why I chose not to become a trader in the EU, but they’re less important than the fact that the choice has been made.
If you are in the EU and are interested in my ebooks, please shop at other online portals.
This month’s discounted title is One Knight Enchanted, book one of my Rogues & Angels series. It’s on sale for just 99cents for the month of February – because there’s a pre-order and cover reveal coming soon for book #4 in the series, One Knight’s Bride. Stay tuned for that!
Cursed to take the form of the wolf by day, Rolfe de Viandin is skeptical that love can save him. All he wants is to return home from crusade by the Yule and even the pleasures of a magical palace cannot console him…until a beautiful and bold maiden arrives at his gates, seeking sanctuary, and Rolfe’s hope is restored.
Hunted in the forest, Annelise de Sayerne has to surrender her desire to wed for love, as the price of entering the only refuge is marriage to its enigmatic lord. She fears he must be a monster, but once she experiences his kindness, Annelise resolves to find love with her new husband—if she can just claim his heart.

Even as Rolfe is beguiled by his bride and Annelise unravels his secrets, a spurned suitor pursues Annelise, determined to claim her legacy at any price. If Rolfe’s curse is not broken, how can he defend his beloved wife from the villain? Will their future be lost before it is truly won—or will Rolfe be convinced of the power of love in time?
Original Mass Market Edition
An earlier version of this story was published by Harlequin Historicals under the title Enchanted.This version has a different ending.
“One Knight Enchanted is a revised book and is the start of a new series Rogues & Angels. The series will be about knights returning to their homes from years at the Crusade. Before they all left on their journey, each was given a special gift that’s supposed to help…in the future to come. Book one is the story of Rolfe de Viandin… along with the misfortune that he encounters. Lady Annelise de Sayerne stumbles across Rolfe de Viandin on her trip to a convent in hope of avoiding a forced marriage… This book supplies romance, laughter and adventure. If you like “fairytale” stories then this is a great beginning of a delightful series to come! Five stars!”
This Pinterest link is for the entire Rogues & Angels series and mixes up the images. Each book has its own board, plus there’s a board for Tulley, one for the gifts and one each for heroes and heroines.
I’ve added a new bookmark for my time travel and magical romances for backers of my Kickstarter campaign!
On the front of the bookmark, the stars and my name will be in silver foil. On the reverse side, the titles of the four books, the stars and the type below the books will be in foil.
Backers of the trade paperback copy of Love Potion #9 will get a bookmark mailed to them along with their signed bookplate. Backers of tiers including all four trade paperbacks will get two bookmarks along with their signed bookplates.
This current Kickstarter campaign features the new edition of Love Potion #9, and you can also order the new ebook or trade paperback of Once Upon a Kiss, The Moonstone and The Last Highlander. The new editions are available for pre-order at retailers for October delivery, but backers of the campaign will get their copies early.
In addition, each book ordered through the campaign has a coordinating tip sheet, which will be added to the front of the book, and a bookplate – the books will ship directly from the printer, and I’ll sign and mail the bookplates separately.
Here’s a digital mock-up of the tipsheet and bookplate for Love Potion #9:
You can only get this addition through the Kickstarter campaign.
There are other rewards exclusive to the campaign, like a limited number of vellum inserts featuring the original cover art for Love Potion #9 by Judy York.
This tier sold out quickly, so I’ve added five more rewards with the vellum insert. This insert will only be available at Kickstarter.
There’s also a downloadable tarot deck to print and color, available to all backers.
Here’s the tarot deck I created from the PDF file:
You can see that I also created a box for the cards, which you can print and assemble.
Youc an also order the Kickstarter editions from previous campaigns in the Add-ons for this campaign, including the Dragonfire Novels omnibus editions, the Blood Brothers special editions and the Bride Quest special editions..
