The Beauty 25th Anniversary Commemorative Edition

My campaign is underway at Kickstarter to celebrate 25 years since the original launch of my Bride Quest series of medieval romances. There are new editions of the six Bride Quest books coming to retailers in November. Each book has a new cover illustration of the couple. The image is the cover of the new mass market paperback edition. It’s also the case laminate on the new hardcover edition, which has an image similar to the current trade paperback on the dust jacket. These books will be available for pre-order shortly – the new editions of The Princess is already available for pre-order and I’ve added the links to the landing page here on the site.

But you can order advance copies of the new books through this Kickstarter campaign, running through June 10. I’m also doing the cover reveals during the campaign.

Here is the new cover illustration of Angus and Jaqueline for The Beauty:

Isn’t it pretty?

Angus and Jacqueline’s story is that of an embittered knight bent on revenge and the maiden he captures – who not only isn’t the right maiden but challenges him in every way. I adore these two together and the way that Jacqueline helps Angus to regain his stolen legacy.

Here is the new cover illustration of Duncan and Eglantine for The Countess:

New Cover illustration for The Countess, book four of the Bride Quest series of medieval romances by Claire Delacroix

One more time, I just love the new illustration and how well it depicts the couple.

Duncan and Eglantine’s story is another enemies-to-lovers romance and a battle of wills between two strong characters. I love that Eglantine thinks she’s too old for love (at thirty) and is more interested in ensuring her daughters’ futures, while Duncan takes one look at her and knows she’s the woman for him. All he has to do is convince Eglantine to take a chance on love again, no easy feat. It might take him all of that year and a day…

The schedule for the 25th anniversary commemorative editions of The Bride Quest at Kickstarter, May 30 to June 10

Yesterday, I added the BookWorm Swag Box to the reward tiers, which includes two signed medieval romance series starters in trade paperback, plus the physical swag from the campaign and more goodies.

I also added a Bride Quest bookmark, which everyone will get as a digital download. Everyone who orders copies of the Bride Quest books in the campaign will get the bookmarks – I’ll include them with the signed books, and will mail them separately to those who order personalized books. They’re in the BookWorm Swag Box, too.

We’re still working on the stretch goal to add the coloring pages as digital downloads to all tiers. We have 26 backers and need 30 for everyone to get SIX downloadable colouring pages.

I’ll be revealing the cover illustration for The Beauty on Monday. You can save on six-book bundles through Monday morning, too.

The Crusader’s Bride

Gaston battled for duty and honor—until Ysmaine tempted him to fight for her love…

When the Templar knight Gaston unexpectedly inherits his family estate, he knows he needs a wife and heir. A marriage of convenience to a widow in need of assistance is a practical solution and the newly-wed pair leave Jerusalem, entrusted with the delivery of a package for the Templars. Away from the life he has known for years, Gaston quickly realizes that little is following his plan—especially his mysterious wife, whose presence awakens an unexpected fire…

Twice widowed, Ysmaine doubts she will ever wed again, let alone have a marriage of merit—until she is charmed by the gruff knight intent upon defending her. Ysmaine weds again, not only by her own choice but to a warrior whose honor she admires. She is determined to show Gaston that marriage has more to offer them both than an heir, but first she must win the trust of the wary man she has impulsively wed…

Neither realize that Gaston has been entrusted with the treasure of the Templars—much less that someone in their small party is intent upon claiming the prize at any cost. In a company of strangers with secrets, can Gaston dare to trust his new bride? Can Ysmaine convince Gaston to confide what he knows? Can they solve the riddle together before the villain’s plan comes to fruition and all is lost?

Can’t you just hear Bronwyn straightening out Rowan? 🙂

Rowan and Bronwyn’s story is an enemies-to-lovers story and a battle of wills, between an apparent rogue seeking a wealthy bride and an heiress in disguise. This romance is filled with action and adventure, and is just plain fun.

Today, I have a stretch goal on the campaign – if we reach 30 backers, every backer will get three downloadable coloring pages of the new covers. I’ll use the mass market paperback covers for these, so there will be lots to color. You can back the campaign for just $5 CA to help us reach this goal, and you’ll get an advance copy of the new short story, Christmas at Tullymullagh, as well as the colorling pages and any other digital assets added to the campaign before next Saturday.

I think this one is just so lovely and the pose is perfect for Burke and Alys. 🙂

Burke and Alys’ story is a second chance romance and a Cinderella story, one in which the secrets and lies of the past stand in the path of their happy future together.
