The Viscount's Kiss is out now

The Viscount's Kiss is Margaret Moore's latest release from Harlequin Historicals.

Did you know that

it's the sequel to A Lover's Kiss, also from Harlequin Historical and still available at eHarlequin and Amazon?

That the hero of The Viscount's Kiss appeared in two other previous books from a different publisher? Kiss Me Quick and Kiss Me Again are still available, Kiss Me Quick in ebook format and Kiss Me Again in both print and ebook format.

That The Viscount's Kiss is Margaret's 37th book or novella published by Harlequin?

That she based one of the secondary characters on herself?

That she has a page of "web extras" on her site, with links to additional information - even videos - of material pertinent to The Viscount's Kiss? (You can find out which character is based on Margaret there.)

That she's also listed many of the research books she's found helpful on her site? She's also listed her books by series and time periods and has a printable "quick list" of all her titles.

That the most deadly spider in the world is the Brazilian wandering spider? What does that have to do with The Viscount's Kiss? The hero, naturalist and viscount Lord "Buggy" Bromwell, likes spiders. A lot.

You can read more about Margaret, The Viscount's Kiss and her other books at her website or by visiting her blog.

Noah Cutter was a man of his word…


Scarred in body and soul, rancher Noah didn’t consider himself fit company for anyone. But when his brother’s philandering finally caught up with him, honour dictated that Noah claim his brother’s widow as his own…


Noah was about the most intimidating man Katherine had ever seen. Yet though one man’s false promises had already dashed her dreams, she instinctively trusted this stranger. And Kate suspected she’d only be a fool this time if she didn’t take a chance on Noah for the sake of herself…and her unborn child!

Amazon.co.uk has put 138 different romances on a half price sale. including M&B historicals and the very popular Lords & Ladies collection. It is a chance to pick up a bargain. Off the top of my head, I saw several Nicola Cornicks including The Last Rake in London. Louisa Allen's The Outrageous Lady Felsham was there as was Elizabeth Beacon's Less than A Perfect Lady. And Michelle Styles's Viking Warrior Unwilling Wife and An Impulsive Debutante as well as Michelle Willingham's The Warrior's Touch.
It could be a great time to pick up a bargain.

I'm on Twitter, would love to see you there!

Hi All,
I'm now on Twitter and I'd love to have Bronwyn Scott readers join me there for daily updates on new manuscripts, story lines and the writer's life, crazy as it is with three kids and a full time job other than writing.

See you out there,
Bronwyn

Crazy question

I've been trying to get better at navigating the eharlequin.com site. But I'm still struggling. Whenever I go to the home page and click on historical fiction and then search in historical fiction by author, my name comes up on the pull down menu but when I click on my name none of my books come up. I always get Cheryl St. John titles instead (and while she's pretty cool, I am just curious as to why this happens). In fact, the only way I can find any of my titles is to go in through the undone option and the two undone titles come up and I can link to my other paperbacks that way. It just seems like there should be a more direct way to get there. Hmm. Any thoughts? I am sure I'm just missing some little step.
Thanks!!!

Check out great Harlequin Historical offerings at the Brenda Novak Auction

Just a reminder that the Brenda Novak on line auction is up and running. I've got a neat Bronwyn Scott basket with the chance to win a dedication page, books, and a book club visit from me among other items (Victoria Secret nightie etc.) and I know other gals have great things up there too! People can check out the auction at http://brendanovak.auctionanything.com The easiest way to find things is just to type the person you're looking for into the advanced search box. The Seattle RWA chapter (among others) have lots of great items on the auction.

The Earl's Forbidden Ward is out in the UK in hardback


Hi,

I wanted to check in and say that I'm very excited "The Earl's Forbidden Ward" was released in the UK this week. It's the follow up to last spring's "Notorious Rake, Innocent Lady." This book is about Paine's brother Peyton. However, while Borders.com and Amazon both list the title as a UK release on April 3rd, I cannot find the book anywhere on the Harlequin or Mills and Boon websites, which dismays me a bit since I've been trying to hype it up on my website and directing readers in North America to purchase it from Harlequin. Any help about how to efficiently locate the title would be welcome! Thanks.

On Mothering Sunday


When I learned that my debut book, The Angel and the Outlaw, was chosen to be released in the UK combined with Sarah Mallory's More Than a Governess as a way to introduce my writing to the readers there by Mills and Boon, I was thrilled.

The title, however, stumped me. On Mothering Sunday--what was that all about? So of course, I googled it. And came to the quick realization that I was culturally illiterate in this case.

The difference between Mother's Day in the USA and Mothering Sunday in the UK might not be so different now-a-days, but four hundred years ago there was a very poignant difference. Children as young as ten years old, who'd had to leave home to work as maids and apprentices, were for one day of the year released to return home to their mothers.

How different things are now. I cannot imagine going an entire year without seeing my children or my parents! I am so thankful for cars and airplanes and the time to be able to visit with them.

This year, Mothering Sunday will be celebrated on March 22nd in the UK.

There are other traditions surrounding Mothering Sunday. I'm betting there are a few writers from across the pond who can fill be in on their take on this!

Check out the new February Undone: Pleasured by the English Spy


Happy February! My new Undone is out for the month of love. Pleasured by the English Spy features Andrew Truesdale, one of Julian's friends from November's undone, Libertine Lord, Pickpocket Miss.
When Andrew is sent to Florence to seek the truth by new rumors of a nationalist plot for revolution, his mission is simple: find the plotters and put a stop to the movement any way possible. But the mission gets complicated when Andrew's task leads him to the Villa of the Breezes and the arms of Olivia, an expatriate like himself. Olivia is a woman of great passion, unfettered by social conventions but when Andrew discovers her cousin's role in the budding uprising, he is plagued with doubt about their relationship. Is her passion genuine or is she protecting her cousin? In order to protect Olivia, Andrew must find away to serve both his country and his passion regardless of the risks involved, not the least of which is his heart.
