Sealed With a Kiss Event - Jayne Fresina


Jayne Fresina sprouted up in England, the youngest in a family of four daughters. Entertained by her father's colorful tales of growing up in the countryside, and surrounded by opinionated sisters - all with far more exciting lives than hers - she's always had inspiration for her beleaguered heroes and unstoppable heroines.

In my new Regency romance, "Miss Molly Robbins Designs a Seduction", the hero and heroine have a journey of ups and downs to travel before they can find a way to be together. Born into different worlds, the Earl and the plowman's daughter should never have noticed one another, but Fate stepped in. And then came Cupid.

Carver Danforthe, the Earl of Everscham, met Margaret "Molly" Robbins—shy country girl —when his bossy sister, Lady Mercy, plucked her out of the village where she grew up and brought her to London as a ladies maid and companion. Over the dozen years since, that once meek little girl, knick-named "Mouse" by the Earl, has grown up into a young woman of quiet determination and talent. As the story begins she has given up her post in the Earl's household, intent on becoming an independent woman of means. She plans to parlay her artistry, skills and connections into a fabulous career as a designer and dressmaker to the fine, fashionable ladies of London society. With a little help from her former master.

Carver has reluctantly invested some money into her business, primarily because she tricked him into it.

Or so he says.

She also tricked the Earl into signing a contract in which he promises "No Tomfollerie". (He hasn't bothered, yet, to correct her spelling.)

Well aware of Carver's reputation, the "Mouse" has no intention of falling prey to his notoriously seductive charms. All she wants from him is the money.

Or so she says.

Below is a sample of their letters and notes, as they tip-toe around new feelings in a relationship that is quickly changing. I hope they don't mind me sharing them with you!



















Well, that's the end of the sample. You will have to read between the lines to guess what he did to make Margaret the "Mouse" change her mind. Or, you could grab your copy of MISS MOLLY ROBBINS DESIGNS A SEDUCTION and find out!

Check out Molly and Danforth's love story in Miss Molly Robbins Designs a Seduction


She Designs Dresses for London's Leading Ladies

Molly Robbins is finally stepping into the spotlight. Her unique dress designs have caught the eye of London's elite. And if it means her own dress shop, proper Molly will make a deal with the devil himself—the notoriously naughty Earl of Everscham. But becoming his mistress is not a part of their arrangement. It's right there in the contract's fine print: No Tomfoolery.

He's an Expert at Taking Them Off

Carver Danforthe has a reputation for beautiful mistresses, cutting remarks, and shirking his responsibilities—not for indulging the ambitions of his sister's maid. He must have been drunk when he signed that blasted contract. The stubborn female may thing she's gotten the best of him, but what this situation calls for is a little hands-on negotiating...

Awww Those were lovely letters Jayne! Carver can really be insistent, but I really love him for that.
These letters will work well within the story if I were to read the book along with them right? That is what you said right?

AquarianDancer said...

It's like an older version of text messages. Shorter letters. ;-)

Jayne said...

Hi Kipha - yes you could actually read those letters as you read the book! Yes, AquariuanDancer, I thought it would be fun to have a Regency-era "chat"!

Unknown said...

LOL. I was laughing while reading the letters. I need to read this book now. Carver is so persistent...he sure doesn't know when to give up. I love Molly though...she seems so determine in her career

Unknown said...

Hi Jayne, I have a copy of the book so am not entering but wanted to say I cannot wait to read this one. I have loved this series. The teaser chats are delicious!

Sandy Kenny said...

Hi Jayne! I love the banter that these two characters have. They sound like an interesting couple and sounds like there are a lot of sparks. I can't wait to read the book!

Karen H said...

Great letters! This book sounds like a whole lot of fun!

Diane D - Florida said...

Loved reading the letters between these two. I can't wait until they finally come together.

Jayne said...

Yes, Carver is very naughty and stubborn when he wants something - unfortunately for him, he's met his match in Miss Molly Robbins!

Jayne said...

Hi Angela! Can't wait to hear what you think of this one. :)

Jayne said...

Thanks for commenting, Sandra! Yes they definitely have sparks, these two!

Jayne said...

Thanks, Karen. I had a lot of fun with this post :)

Jayne said...

Hi Diane! Thanks for reading. Hope you enjoy the book!

dstoutholcomb said...

oh, what folly there is in those letters :)

Anonymous said...

Hi Jayne! I have not read any of your books yet but after readying the letters I am will check them out. What a tease this has been.

Jayne said...

LOL!

Jayne said...

Hi Joyce! Hope you get the chance to check my books out. Thanks for commenting!

Jan Hougland said...

OMG did I ever love the exchange of letters in this post!!! I also liked how Margaret's language gradually changed from haughty and distant to curious and warm. :-) I dearly want to read this entire book! Thanks so much for this post and for letting us get a peek, Jayne. jdh2690@gmail.com

Emma said...

I can't wait to read the book! Miss Molly Robbins Designs a Seduction sounds wonderful.

Thanks, Emma!

I'm sure he would willingly give her a few lessons and she's a very eager and fast pupil!

May said...

What fun love letters. :) Brought a smile to my face!

Martha Lawson said...

Loved the letters! Can't wait to read the book. Thanks for the chance.

Jayne said...

Thanks May - I smiled while I was writing them!

Jeanne M said...

Hi Jayne!

I loved the excerpt and must admit that as soon as Margaret called the (Do-Nothing) Earl Danny instead I'm sure he did indeed do something!

I love your books and they because they always make me laugh when I'm reading them and must admit my husband can't figure out why! So yes, there are some men as "dense" as poor Danforth!

I always wondered which is harder for you to rite, the serious parts of your stories or the one's that make me laugh?

Congratulation on the release of Miss Molly Robbins Designs a Seduction on February 4th!

Sue G. said...

I'm loving these letters. This story looks really sweet. I can't wait to see how it ends.

Jayne said...

Hi Martha! Thanks for stopping by and good luck!

Jayne said...

I think the serious parts are harder for me to write, Jeanne. I know it sounds funny, but although I write romance I'm not the worlds most "romantic" person, so I suppose the funnier parts are easier for me to write than the serious ones. I'm the sort of person who tends to cringe behind her hands at soppy moments in romantic movies!

Jayne said...

Thanks, Sue!

Di said...

this is like the early version of texting! I love it when there's a bit of humor in the story!

Carol L. said...

I loved the letters between these two. Great when there's humor between them. I can't wait to read their story. I have enjoyed all the books in this series. Thanks for sharing.

Hi Di! Thanks for stopping by :)

Jayne said...

Thanks Carol. I have loved this series!

Preet said...

I love the time period the book is set in and I also love that they come from different walks of life. I know a relationship between them would be difficult and it makes a story all the more sweeter if they're able to overcome the obstacles that keep them apart.

bn100 said...

Jayne said...

Glad you enjoyed it!

Jayne said...

No worries, Erin! Usually people miss the 'y' out, LOL! Thanks for stopping by.

Absolutely! In real life they probably never would have spoken, but that's the fun of romance!

Jayne said...

Thanks for commenting

Jayne said...

Thank you Sheryl!

Jayne said...

I had a good time writing them too! Thanks for stopping by!

Jayne said...

Thanks, Anita! Happy reading :)

Unknown said...

Love romance books and this sounds like a good one with maybe a couple little twists :) Thanks for the review :)

Jayne said...

Thanks, Jenn!

TerrieLynn61 said...

Historical Romance books have some of the most beautiful covers. Your covers are included in that statement.

Linda said...

What wonderful letters! I loved how they progressed. The last one was the best.

Ada said...

Hi Jayne, I just love how the letters show Carver and Molly getting closer and closer. Looking forward to reading how they get to their HEA!

Jayne said...

Hi! Thank you - I think my covers are lovely too. I'm always excited to see the next one!

Jayne said...

Thanks, Linda! It was great fun to write :)

Jayne said...

Thanks, Ada! I hope you enjoy the story.

LilMissMolly said...

Love the title of your book! ;)

Jayne said...

Of course you do, Lil Miss Molly! LOL

Glenda said...

Jayne, I love the series of letters and how you see them and their relationship evolve through the letters!! Can't wait to read Miss Molly!

Janice said...

I count The Wicked Wedding of Miss Ellie Vyne as one of my favorite books. Can't wait to read Miss Molly!

Jayne said...

Hi Glenda! Thanks for stopping by the read my offerings (or Molly and Carvers!). Hope you enjoy the book. :)

Jayne said...

Thanks Janice! I hope you love this one as much as Ellie's story!

Kim said...

Congratulations on the book. Did Molly also need speech lessons or wasthe hero's help confined to literacy?

Jayne said...

Hi Kim! I think the Earl would help her out in many ways, but Molly is very detail orientated and a fast, clever pupil, so she could pick up a lot of things herself. She's also lived for twelve years in a fine household as lady's maid and companion to the Earl's sister, so she would have learned a more refined speech in that time. Lady's maids were usually expected to be well spoken :). Thanks for stopping by!

Unknown said...

Sounds and looks like a very interesting read.

Natasha said...

Sounds like a great read!!

Jayne said...
