“For all the girls who walk and read at the same time.”
That’s the dedication in A Week to Be Wicked, the second Spindle Cove novel by New York Times bestselling author Tessa Dare—and it perfectly captures the quirky charm of the whole series. These gorgeous Regency-set romances take place in a fictional seaside resort where society’s misfit young ladies find welcome…and, of course, a set of heroes who love them just as they are.
The series has swept up fantastic reviews for Tessa’s beautiful writing and unique characters: her heroines struggle with depression, pursue geological discoveries, and solve the mysteries of their past. Along with these marvelous ladies and their heroes, you’ll encounter delightful bits such as a melon-bombing, a lamb named Dinner, and a fossil named Francine.
Tessa’s fourth Spindle Cove novel, Any Duchess Will Do, will come out on May 28. If you haven’t read the previous books in the series, here’s your chance to catch up! This month, the contest winner will receive print copies of the first three Spindle Cove books:
*A Night to Surrender
*A Week to Be Wicked
*A Lady by Midnight
