Twelve Days of Christmas Historical Romance Feature 2018 Realm of Angels by Kathryn Leveque Realm of Angels
Kathryn Le Veque

When a noble knight makes a bad decision, it costs him more than his honor.

It costs him his heart.

Welcome to the novella based on E.T.A. Hoffmann’s story, ‘The Nutcracker and The Mouse King’. Rhogan de Garr is a proud and noble knight from a great family and he has always been fond of Juliana de Nerra (SHIELD OF KRONOS). In fact, he hopes to court her. But, in a weak moment, the lure of wealth and treasure is stronger than his love for her.

Or is it?

When Juliana learns that Rhogan has run off with a German princess, she mourns the loss of the only man she’s ever loved, refusing to entertain any other suitors. Four long years after Rhogan’s departure, she still refuses to allow her parents to marry her to another. It is her intention to remain a spinster, for if she cannot have Rhogan, then there is no point in trying to find happiness.

But a mysterious servant at her family home makes his presence known to Juliana, purely by accident. He is drawn to Juliana, and she is drawn to him. Will the fates be kind and bring Juliana what she most longs for?

True love only exists in the Realm of Angels.

The Rogue
The Rogues of Ravensmuir #1
Claire Delacroix

Dear Reader:
Seductive and mysterious, Merlyn was the laird of Ravensmuir—never had a man so stirred my body and soul. I gave myself to him—willingly, trustingly, passionately—and we soon wed. Then a horrible revelation emerged, shattering my innocence and my marriage…

Five years later, Merlyn returned to my doorstep, desperate for my help. The scoundrel swore he was haunted by memories of me, that a treasure locked in Ravensmuir could clear his name. Yet I could not surrender to his will again. Now he is said to be murdered and Ravensmuir has fallen into my hands.

But even as I cross the threshold of this cursed keep, I hear his whisper in the darkness, feel his caress in the night, and I know that Merlyn has told me but part of his tale. Should I do as is right and expose his lair? Or dare I trust my alluring but deceptive spouse—the rogue who destroyed my heart?
— Ysabella

“A beguiling medieval romance from Delacroix…readers will devour this rich and compulsively readable tale.”—Publishers Weekly

The Twelve Days of Christmas

Posted on October 9, 2018 by Deborah Cooke

Twelve Days of Christmas Historical Romance Feature 2018 Are you getting into the holiday spirit yet? The Christmas decorations have been in the stores since August here (!!) but it takes that cold snap in the air to start me feeling festive. Let’s get into the holiday mood with historical romances, each filled with the joy of the holiday season. There will be one post per day here for the next twelve days, each one featuring a different book – plus a few bonus posts. I hope you find some new favorites!

The Snow White Bride, #3 of the Jewels of Kinfairlie series of medieval Scottish romances by Claire Delacroix

The Snow White Bride
The Jewels of Kinfairlie #3
Claire Delacroix

The Laird of Kinfairlie has helped his sisters, each a gem in her own right, to find husbands. Now the laird himself seeks to wed, and pins his hopes on The Snow White Bride.

Lady Eleanor knows better than to dream of romance and love. Married twice to secure her father’s alliances, she has learned that she is desirable only for her fortune. When the Laird of Kinfairlie’s sisters ask her to wed their brother, Alexander, Eleanor agrees, expecting only to save herself from danger.

But Alexander is like no man she’s known before, a man more interested in courting her smile than her obedience, a man who values her counsel as much as her newly awakened passion…and a man unaware that Eleanor is the key to a fortune that could ensure the future of everything he holds dear.

Now, ruthless enemies will stop at nothing to secure Eleanor’s capture. Will she dare to trust her new husband before it’s too late for her, for Alexander, and for Kinfairlie?

“Delacroix provides an excellent end to a terrifically captivating series.”—Booklist

“The Snow White Bride is a gripping story with an emotionally wounded yet wonderfully strong heroine. What a passionate, romantic read!”—Vanessa Kelly, one of Booklist’s new stars of historical romance

The Virtual Tour of Ravensmuir

Posted on October 1, 2018 by Deborah Cooke

I turned on the virtual tour of Ravensmuir this morning. If you’ve subscribed, you’ll receive the first email today. (If you don’t see it, look in your spam folder.)

The idea of this tour is to give you a peek behind the scenes in the creation of each book set in the Ravensmuir world. The tour “visits” each one in turn and in order, starting with The Rogue. There’s “stop” – or an email message – once a week on the tour once you join. As well as more information about the book, there are discounts and links to other free resources. I think it’s fun and hope you do, too.

You can join the tour at any time. New subscribers will receive the first message after joining the tour. Everyone receives a message once a week until the tour is completed.

If you haven’t signed up for the virtual tour yet, you can do that right here.
