My Scandalous Duke

Me on a Podcast and Other Cool Things That Happened Recently

By in Delightful me, Guest post, I am a dork, My Scandalous Duke, News, Royal Reward

Hey, dear readers! I’ve got all kinds of updates for you. That’s one of the good things (maybe the only good thing) about being a lazy blogger: when I finally do post, the post is AFLAME WITH OPPORTUNITY.

First of all–I have a book out tomorrow! Passion Favors the Bold is the second historical romance in the Royal Rewards series. If you read book 1, Fortune Favors the Wicked, you met Hugo and Georgette. Now their love story is told! It’s a sassy but heartfelt best friend’s little sister romance. Night Owl Reviews and RT Book Reviews have each given Passion Favors the Bold a Top Pick review. I hope you’ll like it too.

In other recent news that is lovely and fun, I was invited to join Sarah Wendell for the weekly Smart Podcast, Trashy Books. You can find it through iTunes (it’s episode 231) or just listen on the Smart Bitches website. Voila! Sarah even thoughtfully included a picture of me in my Reading Rainbow shirt. Be inspired, y’all.

Sarah also hosts a semiweekly live stream on YouTube, and on February 18, she read the first chapter of Passion Favors the Bold on air. It was very cool to hear her take on the characters. (Thank you, Sarah!) The whole live-stream episode is here; if you want to hop straight to the romance-reading part, it starts at about 32 minutes in.

Thanks, gang! Hope you enjoyed all the news. If you want to be sure to stay posted, sign up for my newsletter. The easiest place is right on the Home page.

 

My Scandalous Duke is Now Available!

Does that post title sound like a single, scandalous duke is up for grabs? Well, he is–within the confines of my friends-to-lovers novella, My Scandalous Duke, which just released today.

This novella is warm but not steamy, full of sass, and featuring people who are good to each other and want the best for each other. If you’re looking for a comfort read, this might be just the ticket. For your reading pleasure, the blurb:

ONE GOOD FRIEND DESERVES A LOVER…

Lady Eleanor Palmer, a practical young widow, wants a family of her own. Her first marriage was an adventurous disaster, so this time, nothing but the most proper sort of man will do. Absolutely not who she’s looking for? The impulsive, roguish Duke of Hampshire…even though she has secretly loved him as long as she can remember.Nicholas Langford, the Duke of Hampshire, has always relied on Eleanor’s humor and good sense. Who else would guide him through a scandal with laughter and grace? He would do anything to ensure his old friend’s happiness—even help Eleanor find a suitable new husband.

As Eleanor makes plans for a new life without him at its center, Nicholas realizes the depth of his own feelings. But he can offer Eleanor nothing she thinks she wants. How can he convince her he is everything she truly desires?

You can now get the My Scandalous Duke ebook, and a print edition will be available by the end of the month–so, within the next two weeks.

Enjoy!
