I have a lot of favorite book couples. My newest fav is the couple in Katharine Ashe’s MY LADY, MY LORD—Lady Corrina Mowbray and Lord Ian Chance. You’ve got to read this story!! It’s one of the best Regencies I’ve EVER read. I firmly believe it’s destined to become a classic. I don’t want to give it away, but the story, the romance, the characters, Katharine’s prose—they’re ALL magical. I’d love to talk about Corrina and Ian, but I have to be careful about spoilers. Let’s just say that these two are diametrically opposite. You’d never think they’re going to get together. No. Way. But they do, and it’s so, so perfect….

So I’m going to send the e-book, MY LADY, MY LORD to whomever wins as a bonus.

But before I read Katharine’s book, I’d already picked out Blue and Dean in Natural Born Charmer, by Susan Elizabeth Phillips, for Dani’s event. Blue and Dean are my standby, go-to favorite couple from the books I read when I was in the middle of my mothering years. I still have a child at home, but at the time I read that book, I was at the height of my mommy stress—teens and middle schoolers in the house. It was great, but I was drained. This book revived me, gave me hope and made me feel good. I’ve read it several times.

My favorite couples have sparks flying a lot. Dean and Blue are at constant odds. It’s comforting to read about couples like that when you’re married yourself and life’s not perfect and you burned dinner, and your husband forgot to tell you that you look beautiful, and the kids are screaming AGAIN. You realize through couples like Dean and Blue that love doesn’t always come wrapped up in a pretty package. It’s messy, dammit.

But it’s worth it, too. Oh, yes, love is worth all the suffering, sacrifices, and s*** you have to put up with (I needed that third S word!) in your daily life. So enjoy Blue and Dean, and read the lovely, super-fun romance MY LADY, MY LORD, by Katharine Ashe. You’ll be so glad you did!!!

Hugs,
Kieran

It wasn't every day a guy saw a headless beaver marching down the side of a road, not even in Chicago Stars quarterback Dean Robillard's larger-than-life world. He slammed on the brakes of his brand-new Aston Martin Vanquish and pulled over in front of her.

The beaver marched right past, her big, flat tail bouncing in the gravel, and her small, sharp nose stuck up in the air. Way up. The beaver looked highly pissed . . .

She was definitely a girl beaver because her beaver head was missing, revealing sweaty, dark hair pulled into a scraggly ponytail. He'd been praying for a little distraction from his own depressing company, so he threw open the door and stepped out onto the shoulder of the Colorado road . . .

Funny, sexy, and touching, Natural Born Charmer is the unforgettable love story of a golden boy who might be losing his luster and a spirited woman who's learned never to depend on anyone but herself.

HE’S SURE GOT A WAY WITH WORDS…

The last person True Maybank expected to run into while picking up her wedding gown was country music superstar Harrison Gamble. Years ago, when they were small-town teens in Biscuit Creek, South Carolina, they shared a forbidden night of passion. Now that she’s about to settle down, True’s love affair with the handsome crooner is a thing of the past. Or is it? From the moment he says hello, she has to fight swooning like an adoring fan.

CAN SHE RESIST HIS CHARMS?

Today he’s rich, famous, and on every woman’s hot list. But back in the day, Harrison wasn’t good enough for debutante True. Since then she’s had her fair share of marital prospects, including the perfect Southern gentleman she’s about to settle down with. Is Harrison the only one to realize the mistake True’s about to make? Can the society girl and the sexy singer make music together – this time around?
