The Bridal Pleasures Series
I'm delighted to announce that Penguin Books will be publishing my trilogy of brand new historical romances. The Bridal Pleasures series is set during the Regency period. While the Boscastle family will still play a part in the series, characters outside the family with their own passionate intrigues are introduced. The series is about three shameless rogues who steal their brides from gentlemen undeserving of devotion.
The first book in the series, A Duke's Temptation debuts November 2, 2010. My publisher has designed a gorgeous cover, and we are very excited about its release.
Here is an advanced review from Booklist. A Duke’s Temptation will receive a starred review in their November 1 issue.
One night of fun before Lily Boscastle and her dear friend Jonathan Grace announce their engagement. That is all Lily wants, and it is exactly what she gets when she attends the literary masquerade hosted by Lord Philbert. Surrounded by readers and writers, Lily is in literary heaven, especially because rumor has it that the infamous “Lord Anonymous,” author of the best-selling Wickbury novels, might be at the event. While Lily does not ever find her favorite author, she does indulge in a bit of harmless flirting with notorious rake Samuel Charles Aubrey St. Aldwyn, Duke of Gravenhurst. One kiss and Lily almost forgets she is engaged to Jonathan, which has Samuel wondering just what Lily might do if she ever discovers Samuel and Lord Anonymous are one and the same person. A sinfully sexy hero with a secret, a book-obsessed heroine in search of her own happy-ever-after ending, a delightfully clever plot that takes great fun in spoofing the literary world, and writing that sparkles with wicked wit and exquisite sensuality add up to an exceptionally entertaining read worthy of “Lord Anonymous” himself.
John Charles
and from Romantic Times –-
“The wonderful Boscastle clan is back in a new Bridal Pleasures novel featuring Miss Lily Boscastle and a notorious rogue who has no scruples when winning the heart of the woman he wants. With humor and charm, sensuality and wickedness, Hunter delights.”
