Lots and lots of coffee.
Meet Stephen and Amelia from TO ALL THE RAKES I’VE LOVED BEFORE:
After being jilted at her own engagement ball, Miss Amelia Wimple retreated to her townhouse and consoled herself with her beloved gossip rags. She was perfectly content with her life of solitude—until the night London’s most notorious rake made a dramatic appearance on her doorstep.
Lord Stephen Brookes was in trouble. Beaten and bruised, he needed a place to stay and recover. He wouldn’t have normally sought refuge in the home of a proper young lady, but he and Amelia were old acquaintances. And it’s not as though he went to her with seduction in mind.
The odd thing is, now that he’s with her, he can think of little else…
Check out Amelia and Stephen's love story in To All the Rakes I've Loved Before
After being jilted by her former beau, Miss Amelia Wimple retreated to her Mayfair town house and her ever-growing collection of gossips rags. Now, almost two years later, not even her beloved cousins, Rose and Olivia Sherbourne, can persuade her to give love another chance. But an unexpected midnight caller may open her heart once more.Lord Stephen Brookes is the prince of pleasure, the duke of decadence-and it seems his exploits have finally caught up with him. When Stephen comes to Amelia seeking refuge, she can’t deny him . . . or the intense desire he sparks. As he attempts to heal her broken heart, they indulge in a private passion unlike anything either has experienced. Stephen knows sweet, sensual Amelia is meant to be his one and only. Now, he will do whatever it takes to convince her that a rake really can change his ways.

DeleteBoth letters were great but I liked Stephen's more. What type of books do you like to read?
ReplyDeleteThanks, Joanne! I love all kinds of romance and young adult books. But historical romance is my favorite! :)

ReplyDeleteHi Samantha! Thanks so much! Looking forward to reading Your Uncle Charlie's Angels series--so fun! :)
DeleteI'm looking forward to reading this book!
ReplyDeleteThank you! :)
DeleteI wanted to know what inspired you to write your latest book?
ReplyDeleteMaybe a little bit of Downton Abbey and Outlander but in Regency England? No kilts or time travel, sadly, but lots of adventure, high stakes, and a big class divide to overcome. It was very fun to write. :)
DeleteWhat do you do when you are feeling down in the writing world? What motivates you to keep going?
ReplyDeleteSometimes I just take a break and read or binge watch a series. I loved Vikings, Poldark, and of course Outlander! Once I get back in a writing groove, I just want to keep going to The End. :)
DeleteI love all of your books and my only problem is when I buy one of your stories my husband won't let me start reading until I've made his dinner!
ReplyDeleteAw, thanks, Jeanne! Maybe order pizza? ;)
DeleteOh this is so adorable! Its great to see these two again. I love lists and Amilia is just fooling herself, while Stephen's replies were smartly executed.
ReplyDeletetoo bad men don't write letters like that anymore!
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed the letters and look forward to reading more.
ReplyDeleteLove these letters! How can she keep resisting Stephen?!?
ReplyDeleteSoulmates, I'm cheering Stephen and Amelia on!
ReplyDeleteWould love to read. Sounds great!
ReplyDeleteoh to have a man who respects your views, passions and loves you. What we all want.
ReplyDeleteI love all his answers. If only all men loved like that.
ReplyDeleteStephen has convinced me.....sigh....really have to read this story.
ReplyDeleteI pretty frequently agree with Amelia! Passion is good, but so are our passions!
ReplyDeleteAn interesting list of demands!
