Dear Ms. Austin, When I first read the description of Outlaw in Wonderland, I believe I may have said “gimme gimme gimme” out loud. But I deny actually making the ~grabbyhands~ gesture. Saving soldiers’ lives at the Confederate army hospital Chimborazo, Annabeth Phelan is no ordinary Southern belle. She’s never known work more exhausting or(…)

Seven years and twelve books later, we learn some secrets and find ourselves on the cusp of a civil war. It has been an amazing journey. The following(…)

Dear Ms. Chase: Thank you for re-releasing your novella The Mad Earl’s Bride. I missed it when it was released in 2009 in the anthology Three Weddings and a Kiss. The Mad Earl’s Bride has the tone of my favorites of your books: witty, smart, and sweetly sexy. It even has Bertie Trent in it–as well(…)

Dear Ms. Kearsley: I’ve been eagerly awaiting the U.S. release of this book for months. It incorporates characters and settings from two of your previous books, The Winter Sea and The Shadowy Horses.

Dear Ms. McGarry: I definitely had my druthers about this book. In Pushing the Limits Beth doesn’t portray herself in the best light and it is clear that Isaiah, a guy who seems to be constantly saving her, is destined to be the hero. But Dare You To isn’t anything like I thought it would(…)
