Surprise book sale!

 I found out today that The Queen's Christmas Summons is .50 for a short time!  Yep, you heard me, FIFTY CENTS.  I'm not sure how long it will last, so if you feel like Christmas in July grab it now...

"Royal courts are glittering places. But there can be many dangers there." 

The words of Juan, the shipwrecked Spanish sailor Lady Alys Drury nursed back to health, echo in her mind as she puts on another courtly smile. 

Then Alys locks eyes with a handsome man amid the splendor of Queen Elizabeth's Christmas court—Juan is posing as courtier John Huntley! Alys is hurt at Juan's deception until she learns he's an undercover spy for the crown… Amid the murky machinations of the court, can true love still conquer all?

Weekend Links and a Book On Sale

 

Happy last weekend of June, everyone!  I'm not sure how we're here already, it feels like summer just started.  But since I went to opening night at the Santa Fe Opera last night (La Boheme, a favorite!) and festival season is in full swing here, it must be.  (It's also deadline time, eek!  The new wip, a Gilded Age New York romance, is due in 2 weeks).  In the meantime, an older title of mine, Taming of the Rogue, is .99 for a very short time.  (If you love Shakespeare and 16th century theater like I do, I hope you'll enjoy it)

In the meantime, here's a few distractions:

England's first romance-only bookstore

Some real-life inspiration behind the portraits of the "The Gilded Age"

Pompeii's 2000 year old perfume garden

Roses under $20 for your summer wine needs

The history of the Santa Fe Opera
