How to Seduce a Viscount by Bronwyn Scott

A few words from author Bronwyn Scott…

How to Seduce a Viscount has it all – set in winter, its hero is a reclusive chionophile viscount, there are secret identities, a desperate quest, and of course, two fiercely independent people resisting the call to love. Lucien and Wren’s romance is conducted against a backdrop of Post-Napoleonic European intrigue, Greek Independence, and arms dealers (because a Bronwyn Scott book is never just a romance).The book also features a few surprises in the second epilogue – that’s right – there are two epilogues designed to keep readers on the edge of their seats and perhaps hoping this is not the end…we’ll see…

– Bronwyn

Bronwyn’s Editor, Binti Says…

Readers will be swept away by the dramatic, final instalment in Bronwyn Scott’s delightful Wed Within a Year series! The ton’s newest viscount, Lucien crosses paths with the courageous Wren on the steps of a snowy, atmospheric abbey – and their lives will never be the same again.  As always, Bronwyn effortlessly weaves high-stakes drama, sizzling tension and emotion into every scene – an absolutely captivating Regency romance!

Kidnapped For Her Secret by Lela May Wight

A few words from author Lela May Wight

Kidnapped For Her Secret is an age gap reverse sleeping beauty with a dash of forced proximity and a night with consequences – oops! What’s not to love?! Sebastian has hidden himself away from the pleasures of life. Until Aurora. Losing their virginity to each other at a masquerade art auction, they connect in such a beautiful way emotionally, (as if they recognise each other souls!)  But if only it were that easy to claim their HEA… Aurora has to teach Sebastian to let life in. And love. Their journey was an emotional roller coaster to write. I was sobbing and kicking my feet when I wrote ‘The End.’ I hope readers love Sebastian and Aurora’s love story as much as I do!

– Lela May

Lela May’s Editor, Charlotte Says…

This book from Lela May is pure magic! Aurora is just finding herself and her freedom, Sebastian has himself and his heart on constant lock down. So when the opposites attract in this romance, you’re completely and explosively transported to a world of absolute opulence and potent emotion. And you won’t want to leave until they get their HEA!

Cinderella’s Fling with the Billionaire by Rachael Stewart

A few words from author Rachael Stewart…

Do you believe in the ‘lightning bolt’? That moment when you see someone and just know they’re the one? That instant that flips your world upside down and sets your heart racing? That’s what this story is about. Some call it insta-love, others insta-lust – but whatever the name, it’s real. I know, because it happened to me with my husband, and you’ll often find it in my stories. But what if you’ve already had that kind of love and lost it? Can lightning strike twice?

Tim thinks not. After losing his wife, his world shrinks to his daughter and his work. At forty-eight, love doesn’t just feel unlikely – it feels impossible. And then along comes Maria. Writing their story was pure magic: watching Tim open his heart again, watching Maria learn to trust hers. This is a story of healing, hope, and second chances. And a reminder that love doesn’t erase the past – it lights up the future with joy and endless possibility. I hope readers come away carrying that happy little spark with them.

– Rachael

Rachael’s Editor, Carly says…

Cinderella’s Fling with the Billionaire is a touching second chance romance for two gorgeous characters who have loved and lost so much and who you will root for to find their happy ever after! Set in the close confines of a luxury superyacht, Rachael’s excellent banter and chemistry zings off the page whilst transporting readers to Australia’s breathtaking coastline.

Expecting Her Best Friend’s Baby by Tina Beckett

A few words from author Tina Beckett…

I don’t know about you, but I adore a best-friends-to-lovers-story. Especially when the ‘lovers’ part comes out of nowhere. The complication of a pregnancy ups the stakes for both parties. Therese and Seth find themselves in just such a position and must figure out how to navigate this sudden change in their relationship – or decide if sleeping together has destroyed things for good. It definitely ticks all my boxes and I hope it does yours as well!

– Tina

Tina’s Editor, Charlotte Says…

This book from Tina is just magic! It’s got everything you could want from a Tina Beckett Medical Romance – loads of emotion, heaps of passion and two friends who have everything to lose but even more to gain after they become lovers – and it’s exactly what the doctor ordered to cure the summer blues.

Ghost Of A Chance by Katherine Garbera

A few words from author Katherine Garbera…

This story started with a ghost trapped in a textbook and snowballed from there. Jasper really just wants to get on with his life and help his roommate move on with his afterlife. He’s found the perfect person to help him – Kirsty Henson. She’s a mystery author famous for also having some psychic ability. Jasper’s sure it will be easy for her to get the ghost out of the book and let him move on. Except Kirsty can’t talk to ghosts, but can’t admit that on tv so she’s stuck in a slightly creepy house in Vermont holding seances and talking to the dead with the guy she had a one-night stand with.  

– Katherine

Katherine’s Editor, John Says…

Ghost Of A Chance is the type of paranormal romance that any reader would fall in love with. Its laugh-out-loud comedy, playful characters, swoony chemistry, and big heart make it a romp from beginning to end. Plus, who wouldn’t love a romance that features a poltergeist that’s obsessed with Judge Judy?
