Carole Mortimer: Summer plans!



Hi, Everyone,

I will be attending the Romantic Times conference in Atlanta, Georgia, May 3-7th. So please come and say hello if you see me there. If not, I will also be at the Grand Book Signing at the conference on May 6th . I will be signing two of my indie books, the contemporary romantic suspense, Enticing Ian (Knight Security 5), and the Regency combination, The Duke’s Mistress/Claimed by a Marquis (Regency Unlaced 1 & 2). 

Even if you don’t want a signed book please do come and say hi. I would love to meet you.

The pre-order for Wicked Torment (Regency Sinners 1), is now available, and the ebook will be released April 28th. I absolutely loved writing this book. The hero, Darius Strong, the Duke of Wolferton, is arrogance personified but also so sexy, he made my toes curl as I was writing the story! The heroine, Lady Bea Hanwell, appears prim but underneath that there is a siren longing to break free. Darius gives her that freedom, making for a very sensual and erotic read.


The Regency Sinners series will comprise of 8 books, linked by the heroes’ friendship. There is a mystery linking all eight stories in this new Regency series, which I hope you will find as intriguing as I am writing them.

The stories in my Regency Sinners, Regency Unlaced, Knight Security and Alpha series, are more explicit in their language and sexual content than my other books. In other words, they’re hot, so you have been warned!

I hope to meet some of you in May at the RT conference in Atlanta, Georgia!

Carole Mortimer: Happy Spring!

Hi, Everyone,

I’m currently on the island of Majorca, taking a much-needed holiday after a very busy winter. It isn’t hot on the island yet, but all of my favorite restaurants are now open again, so no cooking for me for three weeks. I’ll still be writing, of course, and will be starting on Seducing Ethan, the 7th and last book in the Knight Security series. The pre-order for this ebook will be available at the end of March, with a publication date of May 26th.

March 31st is publication day for Enticing Ian (Knight Security 5). My editor tells me this is the best book in the series so far! I have to say I really enjoyed writing Ian and Evie’s story. Evie needs Ian to help save her brother, but it isn’t easy convincing Ian of that. The two of them knew each other three years before this story takes place, so this is a love revisited. Will they stay together this time or will the past tear them apart?
  

As promised the pre-order for the first book in my new Regency Sinners series, Wicked Torment, is now available, and the ebook will be released April 28th. The heroes in each of this eight book series are linked through friendship from their schooldays and years spent together in the army. There is a mystery linking all eight books which I hope you will find as intriguing as I do.


The stories in my Regency Unlaced, Regency Sinners, Knight Security and Alpha series, are more explicit in their language and sexual content than my other books. In other words, they’re hot, so you have been warned!

Happy Spring!

Carole Mortimer: Reading Tastes

Hi Everyone,

November is a month when I love to light the fire and sit down and read a book by one of my favorite authors. Do your reading tastes change with the Seasons? I’ve noticed that mine do. For some reason I prefer to read historical books in the winter months. Maybe it’s the darker evenings, but I so enjoy being transported to a different time and way of life. Probably in the knowledge I’m snug and cosily warm with my family!

It is now a year since I published The Duke’s Mistress (Regency Unlaced 1) and to celebrate I have now made this book FREE on all ebook sites. So download your FREE copy today!  

Capturing Caleb (Knight Security 3), the 4th book in my Amazon #1 contemporary romance series is now available for pre-order, with a publication date of November 30th. 

The 7th book in my Regency romantic suspense series, Pleasured by a Duke (Regency Unlaced 7), was published on October 28th. This book has been an Amazon #1 since it went up for pre-order in August – so thank you to everyone who pre-ordered it and gave me that #1 spot. The pre-order for Seduced by a Marquis (Regency Unlaced 8) is also now available, with a publication date of December 20th. If you like to read books about families, then you might enjoy that the hero of book 8 is the brother of the hero of book 7.


I am still thoroughly enjoying my venture into indie publishing.  From your response I believe you are enjoying reading these hotter books with added suspense too! I have a great team around me to help me, a US editor and copyeditor, my son Josh as my PR guy, son Matthew as my formatter, and a wonderful lady who has become a friend as my cover design and website lady. I have enormous fun choosing the pictures on my covers. I do so love a dark and brooding hero!

As always, the stories in my Regency Unlaced, Knight Security, and Alpha series are all romances with added suspense and/or danger. They are also more explicit in their language and sexual content than my other books. In other words, they’re hot, so you have been warned!

Carole Mortimer: Autumn has arrived in England

Hi Everyone,

Wow, autumn really feels as if it’s arrived here in England. The weather has turned to rain, and it’s very blustery, blowing all the leaves off the trees. I’m one of those people who love the Seasons, so for me this is a welcome change after a very hot summer.

Our youngest son has now returned to university, after taking a year’s break away from academia. We wish him well on his new course. Most of all, we hope he’ll be happy. And that he doesn’t bring too much washing home for Mum on a weekend!    


Challenging Gabriel (Knight Security 2), the third story in my contemporary romance series, was published on September 23rd. Gabriel is a particular favourite character of mine, and his story takes place in London and on the island of Mallorca. Mallorca is somewhere my husband and I visit regularly, and it proved to be the perfect location for the hideaway villa necessary to Gabriel’s story.   

I have now finished writing Pleasured by a Duke (Regency Unlaced 7). If you read book 6 in this Regency series, Captured by a Gentleman, then you will have already met Sebastian Falkner. I think you are going to love his story, and this 7th book also introduces the hero of book 8 in the series, which will be available for pre-order soon and released in December. Pleasured by a Duke is available for pre-order, and will be released October 28th. 


As always, the stories in my Regency Unlaced, Knight Security, and Alpha series are all romances with added suspense and/or danger. They are also more explicit in their language and sexual content than my other books. In other words, they’re hot, so you have been warned!

Carole Mortimer: A Strange Summer


Hi Everyone,

Summer 2016 has been a very strange one for me, filled with personal sadness and professional happiness.

On a personal note I lost a very dear friend, after a long fight against illness. I spent many hours with him at the end of his life, and consider it a privilege to have done so. He was godfather to our youngest son, and an honorary grandfather to all six of our sons, and we will all miss him very much.
On the professional side of life the ebook published August 30th, Captured by a Gentleman (Regency Unlaced 6) hit #1 Gothic on Kindle. Thank you all so much! 

One of my editors told me long ago that she believed I worked better under pressure. To prove her right, despite the personal sadness of the summer, I have just finished and uploaded the finished copy of Challenging Gabriel (Knight Security 2) to all ebook retail sites. This is the third story in my Knight Security contemporary romance series. It is available for pre-order on all ebook retail sites, and will be released on September 23rd.

I’m currently writing Pleasured by a Duke (Regency Unlaced 7). You met Sebastian Falkner in Captured by a Gentleman (Regency Unlaced 6) and many of you have already asked me for Sebastian’s story—including my editor, who fell in love with him in book 6. This ebook will be released on October 28th. The pre-order for Pleasured by a Duke hit #1 Regency and #1 Gothic Top100 on Amazon during its first week on pre-order. That is incredible! Once again, thank you all so much for loving reading this Regency series as much as I love writing it.


Having successfully settled our youngest son into university last week, tomorrow my husband and I are going on a much-needed holiday. When we intend doing very little except eat, drink, and sleep – and not necessarily in that order!  

As always, the stories in my Regency Unlaced, Knight Security, and Alpha series are more explicit in their language and sexual content than my other books. In other words, they’re hot, so you have been warned!

Carole Mortimer: August News



Happy August Everyone,

I very much enjoyed attending the Romantic Writers of America conference in San Diego in July, only to return to the UK and find myself in the middle of a heatwave, with temperatures higher than those in California!

 It was, as always, a good conference, and I thoroughly enjoyed the beautiful city of San Diego, and the company of the lovely Susan Stephens. We share a suite at conferences, and as always, had a great time together exploring this wonderful city. My youngest son was very jealous of the fact that I saw the start of the Comicon Conference while in San Diego!

I have been helping with the daily care of a very sick friend since I returned, but working late at night writing the 3rd book in my #1 Bestselling Knight Security Series, Challenging Gabriel (Knight Security 2). This book is available for pre-order and will be published on September 30th.

The 5th book in my #1 Bestselling Regency Unlaced series, Desired by a Lord (Regency Unlaced 5), was released on July 22nd, shortly after I returned home.

The 6th book, Captured by a Gentleman (Regency Unlaced 6) is now available for pre-order on all ebook retail sites, and will be released on August 30th. This 6th book is the story of Ranulf Montgomery, the cousin of the hero in Taken by the Earl (Regency Unlaced 3). So many of you wrote and told me that Ranulf had such a hard time in Taken by the Earl that he deserved to have his own story, and I totally agree with you. I hope you enjoy reading more about Ranulf, and getting to know his lovely heroine, Darcy.

As always, the stories in my Regency Unlaced, Knight Security, and Alpha series, are all romances with added suspense and danger. They are also more explicit in their language and sexual content than my other books. So beware, they’re hot!

Enjoy the rest of August!

Carole Mortimer: July News


A belated Happy Independence Day on July 4th!

Three of our sons, plus one daughter-in-law, and granddaughter Aoife—or most of the asylum, as I like to call them—decided to come home to the Isle of Man for a week’s holiday the first week of July. July 5th is Tynwald Day on the Isle of Man, and a national holiday. Although situated between England and Ireland, the Isle of Man is totally independent. The government here is called Tynwald, and Tynwald Day is a thousand-year-old ceremony which takes place at the village of St John’s, on a hill in the middle of the island. Islanders are allowed to place petitions in front of the representative of the government, and Queen Elizabeth II. The Queen is Lord of Man, rather than our queen. We all had a great time, and the weather stayed fine, which was a bonus.

End of June saw the start of my new contemporary romantic suspense series, Knight Security, with the release of Resisting Alexandre (Knight Security 0.5) and Defying Asher (Knight Security 1) both on June 30th. Resisting Alexandre was previously published as Alexandre, in the anthology Royals & Rogues. The Knight Security series is a spin-off of the #1 bestselling Alpha series, so readers will meet some familiar characters from previous books in some of these stories. The 3rd book in the series, Challenging Gabriel (Knight Security 2) is now available for pre-order from all ebook retailers, and will be released September 23rd. 


The 5th book in my bestselling and Top100 Regency Unlaced series, Desired by a Lord (Regency Unlaced 5), is now available for pre-order, and will be released on July 22nd.

As always, the stories in my Knight Security, Regency Unlaced, and Alpha series, are more explicit in their language and sexual content than my other books. So beware, they’re hot!

Carole Mortimer: Checking In!

We are currently having a heat-wave in the UK! Not my favorite thing, I have to admit. I’m more of a snow person than a sun-worshipper, which is a little odd because my birth sign is Leo, and we’re supposed to love the sun. Guess, in my case, someone got that wrong!

2016 is proving to be a very busy year book-wise for me. So far I’ve had a book out every month, and my publishing schedule looks as if I will have a book out every month for the rest of the year too. Not that I’m complaining—I love writing romances, contemporary and Regency, all with the added excitement of lots of steam and suspense in the storyline.


Pursued by the Viscount, book 4 in the Regency Unlaced Series, was released on May 27th. I have been absolutely overwhelmed by how popular this series is, constantly in the Top100 bestselling charts. I’m so pleased, because I really enjoy writing this super sexy Regency romantic suspense series. I love doing the research for this series. The Regency period is one of my favorite times in history. Such a short period of time, 1811-1820, but so exciting too, with the war against Napoleon, his surrender and banishment to Elba in 1814, his escape, and then recapture and incarceration on St Helena. Plenty of scope there for exciting Regency heroes and heroines!

Desired by a Lord (Regency Unlaced 5) is now available for pre-order and will be released on July 22nd. Captured by a Gentleman (Regency Unlaced 6) will be available for pre-order soon, with a release date of August 31st. There will be more books in this series in 2016.

June sees the start of my new contemporary Romantic Suspense series Knight Security, with the release of Defying Asher on June 30th. This book is now available for pre-order. The introductory novella to this series, Resisting Alexandre (Knight Security 0.5) – and previously published as “Alexandre”, in the Royals & Rogues anthology with 5 other bestselling authors – will also be published June 30th. So keep an eye out for the pre-order to this novella, because it features the first explosive, and unforgettable, meeting between the hero and heroine of Defying Asher.
The Knight Security series is a spin-off of the #1 bestselling Alpha series. A chance to meet old friends and make new ones!

As always, the stories in my Regency Unlaced, Alpha, and Knight Security series, are all romances, but with more explicit language and sexual content than my other books. In other words, they’re hot!

Carole Mortimer: Defying Asher

Family news—we had two birthdays in April. My lovely daughter-in-law Esther in early April. And our granddaughter Aoife Jane was 1 year old at the end of the month. I cannot believe it’s been a whole year since she was born! She’s adorable—of course—and into all sorts of mischief.

Book news—the pre-order is now available for Defying Asher, the first full-length book in my new contemporary series, Knight Security. This ebook will be released on June 30th.


Lee asked me how I get the ideas for my books, and especially a new series. The Knight Security series was actually an accident. Asher Knight, and his three brothers, are the brothers of the heroine of my book Savage Alpha (Alpha 8). Asher and Lissa, the heroine of Defying Asher, also featured as secondary characters in my novella Alexandre (Knight Security 0.5) featured in Royals and Rogues. An anthology with four other bestselling authors, which was published in March. Once you’ve read that novella you will know there is no way I could resist writing Asher and Lissa’s story: this couple are just explosive together. The four Knight brothers are now all very real characters to me, so expect to see Gabriel, Caleb, and Ethan’s stories very soon too.

As always, be warned the stories in my Knight Security, Regency Unlaced, and Alpha series are more explicit in their language and sexual content than my other books. In other words, they’re hot!

Look for Defying Asher here:
Amazon
Barnes & Noble
iBooks
Kobo
Also available on Smashwords.

Carole Mortimer: An Exciting New Year!


Hi, and a Happy New Year to Everyone!

I have a couple of exciting things happening this month. A $0.99 book deal, for 5 days only. The release of Claimed by the Marquis, 2nd book in my bestselling Regency Unlaced Series, on January 29th. Plus the pre-order of the 3rd book in the Regency Series, Taken by the Earl, will also be available at the end January.

The book deal first!

Renegade Alpha (Alpha 5) will be available at $0.99 from January 23rd to January 27th, on Amazon only. This is the 5th book in the Amazon #1 Bestselling Alpha series, and it also happens to be one of my favorite stories in the series. I just loved writing Lijah and Callie’s story!

I’ll put the Amazon link to this limited time only book deal at the bottom of the blog.


Lee asked me what urged me to want to write the Alpha series, and the answer is I had several storylines of hot (very!) romantic suspense buzzing around in my head, and the 8 books in the Alpha series are the result. I’ve had such fun writing them that I’m doing a spin-off series, called Knight Security, featuring the four brothers of Lily, the heroine in Savage Alpha (Alpha 8). There’s also an intro novella, Alexandre (Knight Security 0.5), coming out in a boxed set with four other great authors in February 2016, titled Rogues and Royals.

The 8th book and last book in the Alpha series, Savage Alpha, will be released March 2nd, and is now available for pre-order.

First book in the spin-off to the Alpha series, Asher (Knight Security 1), will be published in June 2016, preorder available March 2016.

Sorry to give you so much information regarding future releases, but 2016 looks like being just as exciting as 2015, with a book being published almost every month throughout the year.

What can I say, I simply love writing romances!

Have a great January,
Carole
