 Thee I Do Wed is free on Amazon from Sept. 20 to Sept. 24!

Download your free copy HERE

 

Thee I Do Wed kicks off the Foundling Brides of Brooklyn novella series. Four warm, funny romances set in New York's Gilded Age in which four orphans find themselves in marriages of conveniences with New York society's most eligible bachelors.

From the back cover:

Lilly Gryce has been a thorn in the side of Brooklyn Foundling Home for seven years. So when wealthy Julius Thorley comes seeking a bride in name only to protect his assets from bankruptcy, Lilly is put forward as a candidate.

Julius wants a bride, yes, but the headstrong hellcat he is shown--though she is beautiful--won't pass muster in old New York society. Lilly is equally unimpressed by the pedigree of her future husband--though he is remarkably handsome. 

Julius makes her a deal. He will reunite Lilly with her long-lost parents if she can pass for a society debutante long enough to save the Thorley estate. 

Lilly will give anything to see her parents again. She did not expect the price would be her heart.

New Romance Release - The Last Bride Standing

An arranged marriage between a sniper and a romantic. A cottage on Long Island. A leaky roof, a rat and yet only one thing will tear them apart.

Delphine Butterwick is the last of the four friends who grew up together in Brooklyn Foundling Home to be married off, and this time the bride is wed to a man she barely remembers. Captain Thomas Morrow has turned up to grimly do his duty and go through with the marriage arranged for them when they were children.

For Delphine who lives and breathes romance, Morrow is not what she had in mind when she declared a knight-in-shining armor was coming to whisk her away. 

Tom is equally unimpressed with his future bride. He's a serious soldier with a great purpose and she is an insensible dreamer who believes everything will simply work out.

To Have and To Hold, the last in the Foundling Brides of Brooklyn Series is available on Amazon (0.99) and in Kindle Unlimited.

Claire Jefferson was the least likely of the Brooklyn Foundling Home orphans to find a husband. Suffering debilitating pain, she's finally had enough when Dr. Benjamin Braithwaite arrives to examine her.

Claire submits to his experimental surgical technique and falls in love with the tall, quiet widower.

Cover Refresh and Read An Ebook Week March 6 - 12!

 

Hello lovely people!

We had no idea how much we liked seeing people until we couldn't see people by order of the Health Department.

It is snowing heavily outside our window and it's hard to believe spring will ever return - or normal life - or peace on Earth - but it will. In the meantime, we have books to read. 

Much of this month was spent pondering the direction of romance cover art and consequently, we took a bold move in redesigning the covers for Constance Kent's Victorian Villains Saga. They have a broody gothic vibe that is fresh and right for a contemporary readership. Check them out on the Victorian Villains page and please let us know what you think! 

We were influenced by some change-makers in the genre, Julia Quinn's covers being one, to take the leap away from the style of forty years ago and into the present. Every series got a refresh and we're pretty happy with the result. 

The other exciting event on the horizon is Read An Ebook Week on Smashwords from March 6 to March 12, 2022.

This incredible sale of ebooks in every genre and sub-genre imaginable attracts thousands of readers each year from all over the globe. 

Evelyn Ellis has enrolled Forbidden, Passion, Obsession and Cherry Pop into the sale. Get your copies for free using the coupon Smashwords provides at the checkout. 

Constance Kent has enrolled new titles this time around. Come, Let Me Hold You and Come Let Me Love You is contemporary New Adult romance. Click on the American Gothic Contemporary Romance tab in the header to learn more about this new series of standalone fiction. 

Two of the three titles in Miss Kent's new medieval erotic romance, Mortain and Bedwyr Novella Trilogy are enrolled. Hidden in the Shadows and Whispers in the Fog are free with a coupon. But you'll have to buy the third novella, Revealed in the Mist to see how it all works out. Hah! We're evil.

To all the lovely reviewers who left their comments on a previous edition of this book, thank you! New readers please be aware, Constance Kent is a pen name. Her original pen name was another author's real name and this caused confusion. She made the switch but the books are more or less the same inside. (Some were edited and for the better.)

Now run a hot bath, pour a glass of wine and immerse yourself in an intense and compelling historical romance. 

This Just In: Mark of Caine, the 2nd book in the series, is deeply discounted on Google Play. Get 50% off during the same period. Use the promo code generated for each customer to snag your deal. (Promo codes are limited so don't miss out.)
