Progress Report

It’s been pretty quiet around here as I am working through final edit now on Taken by the Pirate. It was a lot of fun to write, and I hope you enjoy it. I am learning that I like sassy heroines. They do such a lovely job of keeping the heroes on their toes. *grin*

It is taking a bit longer than expected as I was one of the unlucky ones that ended up with long COVID. Though I am glad to finally be through it. I had heard about the fatigue and brain fog, but it was something else entirely to live through it.

I am also working through edits on Lord of Redemption, though not final edits. And my cover artist is running into scheduling troubles. I don’t want to settle on this as Lady Camilla deserves a beautiful cover. I wish I had something to share, but the artist hasn’t been able to start work on it. Hopefully soon.

As we all head back into winter, there will be a lot more time for reading and writing. I look forward to checking in on old characters and giving their bosom bows the happily-ever-after they deserve!

I am not looking forward to the col, but least the mosquitos will be dead.

I will have more news soon!

New Release: Redeemed by the Earl

How far will she go to get the one thing she most wants but can never have?

Miss Jemma Jennings made a mistake and fell in love with a man she could never have. No matter how many afternoons they spent together as children or how much she enjoyed stealing a kiss from him, earls don’t marry their steward’s daughter. Not even when those daughters grow up and become one of the king’s spies. And especially not when they are tasked with solving the murder of a wealthy and influential countess. A countess who married the earl Jemma still loves.

Lord Laurence Haddington, eleventh Earl of Essbury, has always done what he’s supposed to do, including marry the “right” woman from the “right” family. Which hadn’t included his steward’s daughter. Even if he’s been in love with Jemma since he’d been in short pants. Then Laurence’s wife is murdered, and when Jemma comes to his aid, he finds himself falling in love with her all over again.

It’s a second chance at love, but second chances aren’t free. Those who killed Laurence’s wife will do anything to keep their secrets. Even if Jemma can keep Laurence alive, nothing can close the gap between an earl and a spy. Nothing, except maybe love.

Second chances are never guaranteed. Sometimes, neither are first.

His father’s death brought Lord Alexander Kentworth home from the war in France and made him the Duke of Norchester. Now he needs an heir. Not a prospect he relishes, particularly when all four of his father’s wives died in childbirth. But when Alexander is caught in a compromising situation that threatens to ruin a young woman, he finds himself married anyway.

But he will never love his wife. Can’t love her. No matter how kind she is. How perfect. Because he will only lose her.

Lady Serenity wanted a good match with a kind man. She’d even secretly hoped for a love match. Instead, she’s forced to marry one of the most feared men in England. A man known more for the medals he earned fighting the French than his social graces. But he is so much more than just a ruthless duke, and Serenity could fall in love with him. If only he’d let her.

As demons from Alexander’s past threaten to destroy his and Serenity’s future, they must confront the secrets and lies that brought them together. Must face all that has happened and let themselves love. Or risk losing their one chance at happiness.

Now available!

A bright smile spread across Francis’s face. He was… happy. Truly happy.

“This is the best news.”

His sister beamed at him.

He hugged her, eased back, then hugged her again.

He was going to be an uncle, and Francis couldn’t wait to spoil his niece or nephew.
