My Favorite Book Boyfriend with Jenn LeBlanc and Giveaway


Colorado. Canon. Curls. CJs. Chuck Norris.

Born and raised in a household of other people’s children in this beautiful state —very nearly with a camera in hand— she never left. She started her own family, got used to the curls, went to college, built a CJ, started a business, and totally beat the daylights out of Chuck Norris, all with a camera in hand. Spending her days in parenting chat rooms she got highly adept with one-handed typing and she can still type just about as fast with one hand as she can with two. It’s a great talent to have when engrossed in a scene and in need of a hit of caffeine. Once she finished her first novel she quickly realized: She was born a photographer.

From the realization that someone ELSE would be shooting the cover of HER book her control freak took over. What started as an easy cover shoot ballooned into this completely new kind of media, designed specifically for digital book readers.

She lives and thrives off chaos and the constant flow of the creative process. She wears shorts and flip-flops year-round—much to the chagrin of her friends and family— and she is currently working on the illustrations for her second novel. Her first serial novel THE RAKE AND THE RECLUSE is doing its own Chuck Norris impersonation with the time travel charts on Amazon.

Places to find Jenn: 

MY book newest book boyfriend is a hottie McHottie pants. I just met him last week and he had me all a-swoony. From his flap front britches to his crooked cravats, screaming hell-bent for leather on the back of a giant steed through Rotten Row like a bad boy only to feel the wind on his face. And that doesn't even include his making out with inanimate objects. Well, it sounds...off and perhaps it is, but I'LL NEVER look at a strawberry the same again.

RONAN. Ronan Henry Dearborn, Fourth Marquess of Caldwell. RONAAAAAAAAN!!! Oh I'm all a-swoony again.

Ronan.

*sigh*


Lady Caroline Arabella Starling has been in love with her older brother's best friend, Caldwell, since she was thirteen. Unfortunately, too many things keep getting in the way of proving her love. Her four younger sisters, her mother, her brother, all of society and the man she loves himself. But where there is a will, there is a way, and Caroline is about to redefine not only respectability but true love.

Ronan Henry Dearborn, the fourth Marquess of Caldwell, lives to see himself through Caroline's eyes but knows he is leading a life unworthy of her or her dreams. He will do anything to keep her from learning the truth about himself and his past, including keeping her at a distance. But when he and Caroline get tangled in a situation neither of them can get out of, the only way to create a happily-ever-after between them is to take up the advice of a French
courtesan who reeducates them both in the art of love.

  1. Jenn your curls are gorgeous! I used to hate mine and I would straighten them everyday, and then I got a perm and learned to love them! A time travel/historical romance sounds like an amazing story. I love science fiction and historical romances are my favorites so I think this book is going to be a good fit for me!

  4. I haven't read a sci-fi/historical romance yet. Not a big fan of time travel in general, but this sounds like it will be quite the read. I love to see push and pull in a romance. Definitely adding both of these to my TBR !

  8. I am a fan of time travel and find the different takes on the theory endlessly fascinating. I am always curious as to how a modern woman would deal with the restrictions of eras past where women were little more than chattel. I think I would probably not adapt very well.

  12. In time travel books, it always seems insurmountable that the person from the future would ever elect to stay in the past. Would you be able to give up heat and air conditioning let alone hair dryers?

  28. I LOL-ed at "but I'LL NEVER look at a strawberry the same again." what a hero that guy must be!

    ReplyDelete
  29. Well I've got to read this now and see why you won't ever look at a strawberry the same. And then hope it won't change my outlook on them since I love strawberry's preferably with whip cream.
