Bride Quest Shorts are now in KOBO Plus!

This month, I have two new reads for you if you’re a KOBO Plus subscriber. Christmas at Tullymullagh and Easter at Airdfinnan are now enrolled in KOBO Plus.

Christmas at Tullymullagh is a Bride Quest story and #7 in the series of medieval romances by Claire Delacroix

Five years after the end of The Heiress, the brothers Fitzgavin gather at Castle Tullymullagh with their wives and families to celebrate the Yule, and a gentle ghost seizes the opportunity to add to the good fortune of all.

This short story and epilogue to the Bride Quest I is available in ebook on its own, and is included in the new mass market paperback and hard cover editions of The Heiress. Although it actually occurs after events in The Countess, you don’t have to read Eglantine and Duncan’s story before this one.

This story is included in the new 25th Anniversary commemorative hard cover and mass market paperback editions of The Heiress.

Easter at Airdfinnan is an epilogue to the Bride Quest II trilogy, set six years after the end of The Temptress.

Six years after the end of The Temptress, the family have all been invited to Airdfinnan to celebrate Easter, as well as the knighting of Jacqueline and Angus’ oldest son Fergus. There’s also a betrothal planned between their oldest daughter, Annelise, and Rowan’s son, Nicholas. An arranged marriage between the pair might make sense, but more than one person in attendance is keeping quiet about their doubts. The mysterious vine that bloomed during Bayard’s courtship of Esmeraude is growing again, though, seemingly determined to ensure that the path of true love succeeds. Will Nicholas make a love match instead of an arranged marriage?  

This novella and epilogue to the Bride Quest II is available in ebook on its own, and is included in the new mass market paperback and hard cover editions of The Temptress.

The Runaway Bride is 99cents!

This month, my medieval Scottish romance, The Runaway Bride, is discounted for the first time ever. Ross and Aiofe’s story is just 99 cents through the end of December. Remember that there’s a third book in this series, The Stolen Bride, and that you can read about Ross’s seven siblings in The Jewels of Kinfairlie series and The True Love Brides series.

The Runaway Bride, book #2 of the Brides of Inverfyre series of medieval Scottish romances by Claire Delacroix

Aoife MacNeill is a beauty and a prize, a former heiress who wants to marry for love, but her father has arranged her marriage to Nigel Armstrong, the oldest son and heir of the Hawk of Inverfyre. One look confirms that Nigel will never possess her heart—although his cousin, Ross of Kinfairlie, is another matter. Aoife knows she cannot escape her fate, but yearns for one last adventure: she will flee Inverfyre and hope that Ross will be sent in pursuit. She tells herself that one kiss will be sufficient…

Ross of Kinfairlie is a mercenary with a blade for hire; a knight without the coin to claim a bride. When his cousin’s betrothed flees, he lends chase, for the Hawk of Inverfyre trained him. Ross suspects that Aiofe plays a game, but her ploy is dangerous—the treacherous MacLaren clan, always seeking to undermine Inverfyre, take her captive. In the course of rescuing Aoife and ensuring her safety, Ross finds himself captivated by the fierce and beautiful maiden. How much will Ross surrender to guarantee Aoife’s safety? And how much will Aoife offer to protect the man who has captured her heart?

Two German Paperbacks

Recently, I created a trade paperback edition of Der Wolf und die Hexe, which is the German translation of The Wolf & the Witch. I was curious about options and possibilities.

As a result, there are two versions of the trade paperback edition of Der Wolf und die Hexe. The Amazon-exclusive version has Maximilian on the cover (shown at right). The version available everywhere else has the sword on the cover and Maximilian inside (shown at left).

Two versions of Der Wolf und die Hexe in print: Amazon-exclusive edition on the right, edition for all other portals on the left.

See? The left one is a duplexed cover, with Maximilian inside.

I kind of like this option of combining the discrete cover with the mancandy on the print edition. What do you think? Should I do this for English titles in future?

You may be able to order either version at Amazon – look under Other Formats & Editions to find the link for the burgundy one. The Amazon links below will take you to the Amazon-exclusive edition, with Maximilian on the front.

Multi-Author Kobo Plus Promotion Today!

Today’s the day for the YOLO with KOBO Plus romance binge multi-author promotion!

YOLO with KOBO romance binge August 2, 2024

KOBO Plus is a subscription program, much like Kindle Unlimited – you pay a flat monthly fee when you subscribe and can read as much as you want. The big difference on my end is that books don’t have to be exclusive to KOBO to be enrolled in the program, which makes it win-win.

This promotion features a lot (over 625) romances that are enrolled in KOBO Plus right now. Although the promotion is inspired by the BookWorms promo, in this case, the books are enrolled in KOBO Plus for more than one day. That said, it’s a great way for you to discover new authors, new series and new reads, and KOBO has their own landing page in support of that.

You’ll find The Brides of North Barrows bundle on the historical romance landing page, as well as the audiobook for The Frost Maiden’s Kiss and the Spanish edition of The Jewels of Kinfairlie.
