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.
Annelise and Garret’s Scottish medieval romance, The Highlander’s Curse, is now available in Italian!
Era solo ed emarginato—finché lei non lo accolse nel suo cuore…
Ingannato dalla sua gente e marchiato dalla sua discendenza dalle Fate, Garrett MacLachlan è convinto che il suo destino sia di restare emarginato per sempre. Finché non incontra Annelise di Kinfairlie, una fanciulla bella e gentile capace di trasformare in dono la sua maledizione.
Riuscirà Garrett a reclamare la perduta eredità con lei al suo fianco? Sarà sufficiente per Annelise sfidare la propria famiglia nel nome dell’amore vero per salvarlo? E, se anche riuscissero ad avere la meglio sui nemici mortali, saranno in grado di pagare il prezzo richiesto loro dalle Fate?
I’ve decided this month to switch newsletter service providers. My current service has changed a number of things, so it’s time for a move. This means a bunch of work behind the scenes for me, but for you, there are two changes.
First, the Knights & Rogues newsletter will look a bit different. This new provider gears their templates toward phones, so the newsletter will look more graphic. I kind of like that. It looks fresher.
Secondly, I’ve turned off the tour for Ravensmuir & Kinfairlie for the moment. If you sign up now, your email will go into a holding file until I rebuild the tour at the new newsletter service and launch it again (probably not before the fall). If you’re already on the tour, it will continue to be delivered to you from the old newsletter service.
One thing this new service doesn’t do is allow me to send newsletters based on time zones. I like that feature, but not enough to stay at the current provider. So, depending where you are, the newsletter might drop during the night.
Another thing this new service lets you do is choose some preferences. I’ve set that up for you to tell me where you prefer to shop. That way, when there’s a special available at just one portal, I can tell the people most interested in it. So, when you get the first newsletter from the new service on April 6, please scroll down to the footer, click on Manage Preferences and tell me where you shop.
If you haven’t subscribed to Knights & Rogues yet, you can do that right here. That’s a sign-up at the new service. 🙂
It’s a busy month for new releases! Something Wicked This Way Comes, book one of my Brides of North Barrows series of Regency romances, is now available in a Spanish edition. It’s in Kindle Unlimited and exclusive to Amazon.
Siete años atrás, Sofía Brisbane lo perdió todo—su padre, su hermano, la fortuna de su familia—pero aún peor, fue rechazada por el hombre que amaba. Ella está decidida a no lamentarse por el pasado y sus placeres—hasta que se encuentra con Lucien de Royne otra vez. Aunque él sabía que Sofía nunca sería suya, Lucien juró recuperar su herencia perdida—incluso apostando su propia alma a un demonio. Cuando Sofía descubre lo que él ha hecho, ningún poder en el cielo o la tierra la puede convencer de dejarlo pagar la deuda al demonio, sin importar el costo para sí misma.
La apuesta del caballero está ahora en KDP Select: está disponible exclusivamente en Amazon y puedes leerlo gratis con una suscripción a Kindle Unlimited.
The Snow White Bride (book 3 of my Jewels of Kinfairlie series of medieval romances) is now available in a German edition, and it’s enrolled in Kindle Unlimited.
Der Laird von Kinfairlie hat seinen Schwestern – jede für sich ein Juwel – geholfen, Ehegatten zu finden. Nun wünscht er selbst zu heiraten und setzt seine Hoffnungen auf die schneeweiße Braut.
Lady Eleanor weiß es besser, als von Romantik und Liebe zu träumen. Zweimal verheiratet, um die Bündnisse ihres Vaters zu festigen, hat sie gelernt, dass sie nur wegen ihres Vermögens begehrt wird. Als die Schwestern des Lairds von Kinfairlie sie bitten, ihren Bruder Alexander zu heiraten, willigt Eleanor ein. Sie erhofft sich davon nicht mehr, als vor Gefahr geschützt zu sein.
Aber Alexander ist ganz anders als die Männer, denen sie bisher begegnet ist. Er legt mehr Wert auf ein Lächeln von ihr als auf Gehorsam. Er weiß ihren Rat genauso zu schätzen wie ihre neu erwachte Leidenschaft … und ahnt nicht, dass Eleanor der Schlüssel zu einem Vermögen ist, das die Zukunft von all dem sichern könnte, was ihm lieb und teuer ist.
Doch skrupellose Feinde schrecken vor nichts zurück, um Eleanor in ihre Gewalt zu bringen. Wird sie es wagen, ihrem neuen Ehemann zu vertrauen, bevor es für sie, Alexander und Kinfairlie zu spät ist?
Die schneeweiße Braut ist auch als Hörbuch in englischer Sprache erhältlich.
Eurydice Goodenham is convinced that a marriage of convenience with the notorious Sebastian Montgomery, Earl of Rockmorton, would be ideal: in exchange for one child, she can retreat to the library of his country house to write, while he continues his scandalous life in London. But when she finds herself falling in love with her unpredictable, mischievous and secretly honorable husband, does she have any hope of claiming his heart?
Sebastian is bored with the world’s amusements, until his friend’s ward makes a startling proposal. He can’t help but challenge Eurydice’s expectations in return. A wild escape to Gretna Green convinces him that his unexpected bride is perfect for him—except that Eurydice doesn’t believe in love. Can Sebastian win this bluestocking’s reluctant heart in time to save a Christmas—and a marriage—going awry?
Eurydice’s story is the fourth and final book in the series. It is included in a Regency Christmas anthology, Twelve Lords for Christmas, and is now available on its own.
