Books Moving into Kindle Unlimited

Posted on March 30, 2020 by Deborah Cooke

In April, I’ll be moving most of my historical romances into KDP Select. This means that if you have a Kindle Unlimited subscription, you’ll be able to read them free.

It also means that they will be available exclusively at Amazon. In fact, my books have already started to be removed from the other portals. My plan is that they’ll be available in Kindle Unlimited for at least a year, and that they’ll be enrolled by April 15.

What books will be affected? Well, my time travel romances are already enrolled in KDP Select.

All of the Ravensmuir books will be included: The Rogues of Ravensmuir, The Jewels of Kinfairlie, The True Love Brides and The Brides of Inverfyre.

The Bride Quest books will all be included.

The two Rogues & Angels books will be included.

Unicorn Bride and Pearl Beyond Price will be included.

The Champions of St. Euphemia will be included.

The Brides of North Barrows Regency romances are the exception – they will remain available at all portals.

That’s 31 individual books plus a number of series boxed sets. I’ll also be republishing some of my boxed sets, like Kinfairlie Knights, at Amazon only in April.

Finally, this means that there will no longer be a free bundle bonus for newsletter subscribers. If you haven’t signed up for my newsletter and downloaded that free 3-book bundle, you might want to do that now.

All’s Fair in Love & War

Posted on March 24, 2020 by Deborah Cooke

There’s a new boxed set of my medieval romances available today, and it’s priced at 99¢ for this week only! Do you have your copy yet?

All’s Fair in Love and War: Four Enemies-to-Lovers Medieval Romances

Be swept away by four thrilling medieval romances by the “Queen of Medieval Romance”, each featuring a defiant lady at odds with a persistent and powerful knight. Sparks fly in these battles of wills, but passion will win the day.

In One Knight’s Return, Melissande is compelled by her overlord to marry a rough knight just home from crusade – the alternative is to surrender her family holding completely. She knows the kind of knight who will hold her heart, and Quinn de Sayerne isn’t it. Quinn, on the other hand, knows what it’s like to risk everything and is determined to make their arranged marriage into a real one—no matter what the cost to his beautiful wife’s pride.

In The Scoundrel, Evangeline will do anything to retrieve the relic stolen from the chapel in her family holding, even seduce the thief himself to capture the prize. Gawain has always lived outside the law, a charming rebel protecting his own advantage, but Evangeline’s devotion to Inverfyre makes him question is choices. If he changed his ways, could this beguiling, brilliant, maddening woman come to love him?

In The Rose Red Bride, Erik abducts Vivienne to avenge himself against his wicked brother. Fueled by anger, he expects little of his captive except a son—but Vivienne is precisely the woman to take Erik’s cause once she learns his story. If Vivienne can ensure that Erik’s stolen legacy is regained, will her embittered but honorable husband find room in his heart for her?

In The Warrior’s Prize, Elizabeth challenges Rafael to change his ways, skeptical that the mercenary who nearly cost her brother his life is capable of redemption. But Rafael sees his comrade’s sister as an angel sent to save him, and when he realizes that she’s in peril of being claimed by the Fae king himself, Rafael will pay any price to save the only maiden bold enough to challenge him. But will his all be enough for Elizabeth?

Indulge in four sweeping medieval romances to warm a winter’s night—at a special price for one week only!

Discounted to 99 cents until March 28th only.

Updated Print Editions

Posted on March 10, 2020 by Deborah Cooke

This past month, I’ve updated the print interiors for the True Love Brides series of medieval Scottish romances. This is a job I’ve been meaning to do for quite a while. They were the only print editions in the Ravensmuir world that didn’t have the pretty illuminated caps at the beginning of each chapter – like this:

The Frost Maiden's Kiss, a medieval Scottish romance by Claire Delacroix, in its print edition When I set up a book interior for printing, I use a template, and the template that includes these pretty caps is different than the one I was using when the True Love Brides and the Champions of St. Euphemia series were first published. I redid the interiors for the Champions of St. Euphemia when the covers were updated and noticed that the page count with this template ended up being lower – that can mean (depending on the territory and portal) that the price of the print book is slightly lower. That was all the impetus I needed to update the True Love Brides, as well.

The Warrior’s Prize, for example, which is the longest of the four books, has gone from 356 pages to 326 pages. The books look the same on the outside, but they’re prettier inside. They might be a little cheaper, too. 🙂
