2023 Wrap Up and What’s New in 2024!

January 10th, 2024
Happy New Year! Yes, I am well aware we’re 10 days into the new year, and I’m running a bit behind. December was a whirlwind of good and bad. I am blown over by the reviews on Catching Lizzy. Thank you to everyone who read and reviewed it. It was definitely a mood booster while I was ill over Christmas. Some virus decided it liked me, my husband, and my eldest daughter. They’re both over it, and the cough is still lingering with me. I do have my attention span back since that took a vacay while I was sick, but I admit to being lazy some days when the cough tries to make a come back.

January arrived with the news that An Endeavour to be Worthy came in 3rd place in the 1^st Annual Members’ Choice Audiobook Awards! I’m just tickled pink that everyone loved the audiobook enough to vote for it. I’m in the mood to celebrate, so I have 5 paperback copies of An Endeavour to be Worthy that I am giving away (US only due to the crazy cost of postage these days! Sorry!). Please note that these were the first paperbacks I received after publication and I forgot to put the title on the binding (my bad!) but I will sign the binding in Sharpie if you want :). Just let me know when you enter in the comments. For worldwide, I will give away 3 audiobook codes for An Endeavour to be Worthy and 3 audiobook codes for A Gentleman of Worth (the 2nd book in the series). In your comment, please let me know which giveaways you’re entering as well as what audiobook code you will need (US or UK).

Now, to what’s coming! I’m thrilled to announce that Deborah Balm is currently working on narrating A Worthy Woman (3rd in the Montford Cousins series) and I hope it will be out next month. I also have Scarlett Mae Clarke currently working on Catching Lizzy. The first 15 minutes sounded great, and I’m looking forward to hearing more. She was doing great with drunk Lizzy so I’m really excited. I’ve also started working on Jane’s story. I’m over 20K words in and trying to get my pace back moving forward after the holidays.

I have also been working on a real office of sorts! For the past two years, I’ve been using my old Ikea kitchen island as a computer table on one side of the kitchen. With my younger daughter now moved out and at college/university, I have repainted the room and bought a real desk and office chair. I’m currently planning on repainting some of my daughter’s old furniture to use in there as well. I still need to make a place for the printer!

I’d love to hear about your holidays! Don’t forget to leave me a comment for the giveaway with which giveaways you’re entering and the market for the audiobook! Another chance to win will be on Monday at Austen Variations!

A Gentleman of Worth is out on Audiobook!

October 10th, 2023
Good morning and happy Tuesday! I am so excited to let you know A Gentleman of Worth is out on audiobook! Deborah Balm offered to return to narrate the second instalment of the Montford Cousins series, and she did a fantastic job as always. The audiobook comes out just in time since I’ve almost completed the edits on book 3, A Worthy Woman and hope to have it out by the end of the month. You can refresh your memory on Nicholas and his gregarious nature before you read of his love story. This has been my favorite so far to write. I hope you’ll have just as much fun reading it. Of course, I cannot give anything to Nicholas too easily 😉

But back to Amelia and Anthony! I’ve attached the retail sample of Deborah’s narration.

Don’t forget to pick up A Gentleman of Worth on audiobook here.

And don’t forget to keep an eye out for the release of A Worthy Woman.

A Gentleman of Worth is out on Kindle, KU, and Paperback!

June 8th, 2023
A Gentleman of Worth is out on Kindle, KU, and paperback! With my daughter’s graduation and relatives over, I uploaded the books and released them when I had the chance!

l’m so excited to have Anthony and Amelia’s love story out there for everyone to read. So if you haven’t seen the blurb, I will put it below. Or if you just want to read about Anthony and Amelia, just click on the link to get your own copy or read it on KU!

A Gentleman of Worth

If you missed the previews here, just follow the links to the first 4 chapters posted at Austen Variations!

Chapter 1, Chapter 2, Chapter 3, and Chapter 4.

Now! For the blurb!

As the granddaughter of the Earl of Richmond, Lady Amelia Montford is never in want of dance partners. Even though she finds the gentlemen tedious, she is always guaranteed good company for one set—her dance with the agreeable and handsome Sir Anthony Greene. Despite falling madly in love with the dashing baronet during her first Season, Sir Anthony has become a devoted friend and confidante. Yet of late, he has behaved oddly and has even declared he is attached to a lady! Amelia is dumbfounded. Sir Anthony claims he is in love with her? No, he could not be, not after all this time. She loved him once, but he broke her heart all those years ago. How is it possible to fall in love with someone a second time, with her best friend?

Sir Anthony Greene had not expected Amelia to react with such shock to his revelation. Worse, when it is bandied about London that he had an assignation in the garden with her at the Marquess of Ormonde’s ball, her reputation is in tatters, so they must marry. He finds himself resigned to a life with a lady he loves but who considers him no more than a friend in return! Such an existence will be a torture!

In the meantime, an old lover of Anthony’s father returns to town. Lady Lincoln holds secrets that can unravel any progress Anthony has made in his quest to win Amelia’s heart. Can Anthony thwart Lady Lincoln’s attempts to ruin his hopes of gaining Amelia’s regard? Can he prove himself a gentleman of worth?

Now to celebrate the release, I’m giving away 2 Kindle ebooks! Just comment below to enter! I can’t wait to read your comments and answer questions. Well…most questions 😉 I’m not giving spoilers!!
