We are delighted to share that Mills & Boon Historical author Jenni Fletcher picked up the Libertà Books Shorter Romantic Novel Award at the annual Romantic Novel Awards (RoNAs) at a ceremony in London on Monday 2 March.

Jenni’s book Miss Amelia’s Mistletoe Marquess was shortlisted alongside Mills & Boon authors Virginia Heath, Lara Temple, Ellie Darkins and Annie O’Neil across two categories: The Shorter Romantic Novel and the Jackie Collins Romantic Thriller Award. You can find out more about each shortlisted book here.

We are absolutely delighted for Jenni and all our other shortlisted authors. The awards evening was a wonderful celebration of romance writing, hosted by Jenny Éclair and with a moving speech from Outstanding Achievement Award honouree Milly Johnson.

Jenni’s editor Linda Fildew said: ‘I’m so delighted for Jenni’s success winning the award for Miss Amelia’s Mistletoe Marquess. It’s hard to resist this sensible heroine who yearns to be more fun-loving and finds her true self with a remarkably sexy hero.  I loved working on this book with Jenni and am so proud of her achievement.’

Jenni Fletcher said: ‘I’m really, really thrilled and happy and still slightly in shock. I’m honoured to be nominated alongside such talented authors and very touched by all the congratulations and support. A huge thank you to Mills & Boon for giving me the opportunity to write and live out my dream of being an author.’
