A Most Inconvenient Earl in Spanish

A Most Inconvenient Earl, book four of the Brides of North Barrows Regency romance novellas by Claire Delacroix, Spanish edition

Eurídice Goodenham está convencida de que un matrimonio de conveniencia con el notorio Sebastián Montgomery, Conde de Rockmorton, sería ideal: a cambio de un hijo ella podría retirarse a la biblioteca de su casa de campo a escribir, mientras él continúa su escandalosa vida en Londres. Sin embargo, cuando ella se encuentra enamorándose con su impredecible, engañoso y secretamente honorable esposo ¿tiene ella alguna esperanza de reclamar su corazón?

Sebastián está aburrido de los entretenimientos del mundo, hasta que la protegida de su amigo hace una propuesta llamativa. Él no pude evitar retar las expectativas de Eurídice a cambio. Una salvaje escapada a Gretna Green lo convence de que su inesperada futura esposa es perfecta para él—excepto que Eurídice no cree en el amor. ¿Puede Sebastián ganar el corazón de esta mujer culta e intelectual a tiempo para salvar la Navidad—y un matrimonio—haciendo lo inesperado?

The Snow White Bride Now Available in German

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.

The Snow White Bride, book three of the Jewels of Kinfairlie sereis of medieval romances by Claire Delacroix, German edition

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.

Christmas Romances

Christmas Romances by Claire Delacroix

In the mood for a Christmas romance? Here are some of my books that take place at Christmas.

A Duke by Any Other Name
is a Regency romance featuring a duke in disguise and a perceptive maiden, both attending a Christmas wedding. Alexander intends to identify and capture a spy but is enticed by Daphne—will she help him to succeed or undermine his plan? (I think of this as my Scarlet Pimpernel story.)

The Snow White Bride
is a medieval Scottish romance featuring a marriage of convenience between a lady on the run and the Laird of Kinfairlie, who thinks he has no time to wed. Christmas at Kinfairlie means mummers and celebration—the healing of old wounds and a love unexpected. I love this story so much.

The Mercenary’s Bride
is a medieval Scottish novella, in which Quentin returns to Inverfyre bent on revenge—but finds a second chance at love instead. There’s nothing I love more than a wounded hero who finds true love and a happy ending.

A Most Inconvenient Earl
is a Christmas Regency romance novella, which you can read in the Twelve Lords of Christmas right now, along with eleven other holiday romances. Sebastian gets more than expected when Eurydice proposes to him—when he accepts, their adventure begins. This is another story of love unexpected, and I love their banter.

The Rogue
was my first visit to Ravensmuir. Merlyn and Ysabella have a second chance at love, but not before someone threatens Merlyn’s life and Ysabella has to surrender her (many) secrets. This one has some suspense elements and a bit of Gothic tone, but Merlyn remains one of my favorite heroes.
