June Top Pick!
HOW CAN THIS PASSIONATE KNIGHT…
Renowned beauty Lady Linnet is torn between two desires: revenge on those who destroyed her family or marriage to her childhood sweetheart Sir James Rayburn. One fateful night, she makes a misguided choice: she sacrifices Jamie’s love for a chance at vengeance.
TRUST A BEAUTY WITH A PAST?
Jamie Rayburn returns to England in search of a virtuous wife—only to find the lovely Linnet as bewitching as ever. Their reckless affair ignites anew, even hotter than before, although Jamie vows to never again trust her with his heart. Then just as Linnet begins to make amends, she’s tempted by one last opportunity to settle old scores. But a final retribution could cost her Jamie’s love – this time forever.
Check out books number 5 and 6 on The Season’s Red, White and Blue Fireworks Giveaway list. 
Annabel Winslow is a country girl at heart. She’s staying with her grandparents in London for The Season with the intention of finding a husband wealthy enough to save her family from poverty. Annabel dislikes the idea of marrying a man she does not love, but her sense of duty runs deep.
Sebastian Grey is in limbo. He’s next in line to become the Earl of Newbury unless the current Earl, a despicable, portly man in his 60’s, can find a bride who will bear him a son. Society is not quite sure what to make of Sebastian—on one hand he’s handsome, charming, and may be extremely rich one day. On the other hand, he may wind up poor as a pauper.
When Annabel (quite inconveniently) becomes the object of both of their affections, a series of whirlwind events ensues. She knows that marriage to an Earl may be the only thing that will save her family from ruin, but the thought of submitting to Newbury disgusts her. And Sebastian’s tempting touch certainly doesn’t help. It soon becomes clear that Annabel must choose between her family’s livelihood, and her one true love…

Wanton. . .
Leo Roberts is next in line for an earldom and the power and fortune that come with it, but he is uncultured, unrefined–and completely untamed. . .until governess Ella Finch arrives upon the scene. Can so young and inexperienced a woman tutor him in the manners and mores of his class? Leo’s mysterious past has rendered him an outsider, too wild for polite society. But he finds her innocence most intriguing. . .
Willing
What manner of man he may be, Ella does not know. Yet he fascinates her and she must know more. Capturing Leo’s reckless heart is about to free her in ways she never dreamed of. . .and his sensual touch releases the deepest yearnings of her body and soul. . .
On July 4th, I’m giving away a whole bunch of books. One lucky entrant will get it all, plus some lovely chocolates, since books and chocolate seem to be our predominant weaknesses. So until the July 4th, I’m going to be featuring the books being given away day by day. June 27th I’ll post instructions on how to enter so stay tuned.
Today, check out the first two books on the list.
A MOST IMPROPER ALLIANCE
Two years ago, dashing Captain Samuel Breedlove disappeared without a word. But he’s resurfaced in London a wealthy man, only to discover his fiancée planning to wed another. Now Samuel needs to restore his good name and expose a villain–and tempting, temptable Cilla seems an ideal accomplice.
Priscilla Burke knows the marriage of her charge, Annabelle Bailey, to the Earl of Raventhorpe must be perfect. It would be madness for her to even consider doing anything that would mar this beautiful day and destroy her fledgling career as a wedding planner. Why then is she so drawn to this irresistible stranger who insists she help him sabotage the impending affair?
But a proper lady’s desire is nothing to toy with. And a man whose character has been questioned cannot allow himself to dream of happily ever after. This not-so-innocent seduction may have unforeseen consequences…
~*~*~
Sworn to support King Edward, Sir Alex de Beaumont had to leave his new bride on their wedding night to fight in the Crusades. Captured and left to languise in a lonely prison, the warrior knight is kept alive by the memory of love — and of Lady Katherine’s innocent passion as she cried out his name in ecstasy and made him her own. Upon his escape and return to England, he is shocked to find his beloved is about to marry another man…
Kat refuses to forgive him. But Alex will not be gainsaid. He vows to seduce her all over again and his searching kisses reawaken the sensual fire they once knew–until an enemy determined to destroy them both closes in. Now Alex must risk everything for the one woman whose love he wants forever…
Here’s a post I never thought I’d have to put up. With more frequency than before, winners are NOT coming back to see if they’ve won books. I guess in some ways it’s pretty natural. You go to many different blogs, comment on many of them and forget to go back to see if you’ve won.
Now some of you might ask, why don’t you just email them and tell them they’ve won? Well the obvious answer to that is I want them to come back to the blog. Frequently. Not just once or even twice.
So what I’ve decided to do since I’m getting a rash of winners neglecting to check back to see if they’ve won, starting this week, I’m going to start rewarding my frequent visitors when the winners don’t come back to collect. This is how it will work. A week after post announcing the winners, I will go back and find my most frequent commenter(s) and reward them the prize. If there is more than one, I’ll draw between them. Couldn’t be more simple, right? Let’s face it, faithful commenters are who all blogs are looking for and I’m going to try to find ways to show my appreciation.
Now if you’re one of the visitors who doesn’t check into the blog weekly and you’ve commented to win a book, I would suggest that you subscribe to The Season Blog RSS Feed, which is on the sidebar right at the top. I have my feeds delivered to my email. I love it because I never miss a post of my favourite blogs.
Published authors, I’ve sadly neglected Excerpt Thursdays. The reason I love this so much is because a good excerpt has always been able to sell a book to me. As authors, we have no or little say in our covers or our back cover copy. The words inside our books are truly ours. It is the story and our voice. If authors can hook a read with that, they’ve got a sale. And let’s face it, sales are what keep us in business. So saying all that, I’m resurrecting Excerpt Thursdays once again. If you’d like your book featured on Excerpt Thursdays, please email me at historicals at historicalromancereleases dot com.
