A Duke in Shining Armor eBook Deal

If my first Difficult Dukes book, A Duke in Shining Armor, isn’t on your e-reader, now might be a good time to consider adding it. For the month of October, it’s a $2.99 Amazon Kindle deal—and a quick check of other retailers tells me that Barnes & Noble Nook and Apple Books are matching the price.

While I try to write series books so that each can stand alone—and this series in particular will, I hope, work no matter where you begin it—some of us like to begin at the beginning, go on till we come to the end, then stop. In that case A Duke in Shining Armor (Ripley’s story) is the beginning, with Ten Things I Hate About the Duke (Ashmont’s story) coming up next, at the beginning of December.

Miss Wonderful eBook for $0.99

I came back to writing, after a hiatus of about four years, to begin the Carsington Brothers series. What started out as a trilogy about three unmarried brothers turned into a five-book series that included a married brother and the further adventures of his stepdaughter.

Miss Wonderful was the first book in the series, set in Derbyshire’s beautiful Peak District. It’s about a boy, a girl, and a canal.

And now the eBook is available for a mere 99¢.

Lord of Scoundrels eBook for $2.99

I love being able to offer my readers a bargain.

Amazon is offering Lord of Scoundrels as one of its Summer Reading Week Kindle Big Deal books. What’s the Big Deal? From 13 through 19 July, the eBook is only $2.99.

Now, yes, this is an Amazon special, but very often other online booksellers will match prices, so you may be able to find the same deal for other e-readers within a day or so of the Amazon promotion.

January of this year marked this book’s 25th anniversary, an awfully good run for a historical romance. It never occurred to me to celebrate, because I was deep in a special writer’s hell, wrestling with Ten Things I Hate About the Duke. Otherwise, I would have written a blog post or two about the background. Fortunately, there have been deals before now, and you can find here several blog posts about different aspects of the book. If you have an additional topic to suggest, something you’re curious about, please send me an email via the Contact page. I’ll be happy to revisit what was possibly my most fun novel-writing experience, ever (although quite a few others have definitely come close).
