My March got eaten by monsters, but Anthony’s book WILL drop April 30. (I actually love the title Crown of Hearts, but I always call it “Anthony’s book” and I bet lots of you do too.) In preparation, I’m going live on Facebook Friday April 16 at noon Eastern time to chat about it! If…

I’m dipping back into Not Like a Lady in the run up to Crown of Hearts coming out in April. (In fact, there’s a rare 99 cent sale on Not Like a Lady right now.) I still adore Michael, and he’s not like any of my other heroes. He just does NOT know how to…

I’m trying something new – spreading my weekly dose of hopefully pleasant history tidbits a little more widely across my social media, not just my Facebook page!

Whew, how is it that time can pass so fast in the featureless void I now live in? It seems like it was just yesterday that What a Duchess Does came out, but it was almost six weeks! Or more than! I’m not going to bother to count! And as is recorded here, I just…

Obviously! Just in time to celebrate the arrival of the Duke and Duchess in What a Duchess Does, now available! And if you’ll excuse me, I’m going to sleep. More news soon!

Yes, intrepid romance author Clairissa SinClair has interviewed our favorite ladies’ man, Dr. Oliver Burke, the hero of The Countess Invention. I think he turned out to be more interesting than me, for those of you who read my interview with Arabella Sheen.  Am I jealous? No! I adore Oliver, it’s no secret. I adore…

The lovely romance author and blogger Arabella Sheen interviewed me for her blog, “Arabella’s Blog and Chit-Chat”. Arabella asked great questions and let me blather about the historical research I’ve been doing – thank you for your kind interviewing, Arabella!  ​You can find out more about Arabella’s books at her blog and follow her on…
