I have a new release this month. Hooray!
So I thought I'd celebrate with a GIVEAWAY here!
DAYS OF RAKES AND ROSES is being billed as Sons of Sin 1.5 (love that!). It's an e-novella featuring Lydia, the Duke of Sedgemoor's younger sister, and her childhood sweetheart Simon.
Even better, it's available at all the usual suspects like Amazon and Barnes and Noble for the BARGAIN price of 99 cents!
By the way, don't you just adore that cover?
Here's the blurb:
Lady Lydia Rothermere has spent the past decade trying to make up
for a single, youthful moment of passion. Now the image of propriety,
Lydia knows her future rests on never straying outside society's rigid
rules; but hiding away the desire that runs through her is harder than
she could have ever dreamed. Now as Lydia prepares for a marriage that
will suit her family, but not her heart, Lydia must decide what's more
important: propriety or passion?
Simon Metcalf is a rake and adventurer. But for all his experience,
nothing can compare to the kiss he stole from the captivating Lydia
Rothermere ten years ago. Simon can scarcely believe he's about to lose
the one woman he's never forgotten. The attraction between them is
irresistible, yet Lydia refuses to forsake her engagement. With his
heart on the line, will Simon prove that love is a risk worth taking?

The events in the novella take place before those in SEVEN NIGHTS IN A ROGUE'S BED (Sons of Sin 1) so Jonas is still in curmudgeon mode and Sidonie hasn't yet appeared in the characters' lives. But we get to see quite a bit of Sir Richard Harmsworth, the hero of Sons of Sin 2, A RAKE'S MIDNIGHT KISS, which is out on 27th August. And we get to see even more of Camden Rothermere, the Duke of Sedgemoor, a man who is the subject of my current writerly crush.
In Simon and Lydia's case, her ambitious father is to blame for breaking them up in the first place, but ten years apart and Lydia's recent engagement make for a stormy homecoming for our wandering rake. Scandal has shadowed the Rothermere family and Lydia has learned through bitter experience to toe the line - can she risk everything to follow her heart? And is the man she fell in love with so many years ago worthy of her trust? After so long apart, he should be merely a handsome stranger.
How does it work out for our two star-crossed lovers? You'll have to read the story to find out!
So are you a fan of reunion romances? Do you have a favorite?
I've got a download of DAYS OF RAKES AND ROSES for one commenter today. If an international reader wins, for reasons of geographical restrictions, the prize is your choice from my indie novellas, THESE HAUNTED HEARTS or THE WINTER WIFE.
