Weepy heroines and a #giveaway on Embracing Romance
I'm on Embracing Romance today talking about weepy heroines (and confessing my own earlier tendency to cry for hours). I'm giving away a copy of Rakes and Rogues (or another of my books, winner's choice) to one lucky commenter.
http://www.embracingromance.com/weepy-heroines-a…-barbara-monajem/
Do please drop by and weigh in with your opinion on whether romantic heroines should be allowed to cry -- and if so, how much.

TO KISS A RAKE is FREE!!
Hello, hello, hello!! TO KISS A RAKE, the first in my Scandalous Kisses series, is free on Amazon for Kindle for a few days!! There's no better deal than FREE. :~))
https://www.amazon.com/Kiss-Rake-Scandalous-Kisses-ebook/dp/B00ZAY07OK/
WHEN A LADY IS ABDUCTED BY MISTAKE…
Melinda Starling doesn’t let ladylike behavior get in the way of true love. She’s secretly helping a friend to elope…until she’s tossed into the waiting coach and driven away by a notorious rake.
REVENGE REALLY DOESN’T PAY.
Miles Warren, Lord Garrison, comes from a family of libertines, and he’s the worst of them all—or so society believes. When Miles helps a friend to run off with an heiress, it’s an entertaining way to revenge himself on one of the gossips who slandered him.
Except that he abducts the wrong woman…and as if that wasn’t scandalous enough, he can’t resist stealing a kiss.
FREE FREE FREE... ENJOY!!
(In case you didn't know, there's a second book in the series, THE RAKE'S IRISH LADY, and the third, LOVE AND THE SHAMELESS LADY, will be out soon...possibly November. Now I have to figure out how to redeem an obnoxious heroine--a secondary character in Love and the Shameless Lady--for Book 4.)

A Very Wicked Christmas Anthology is up for #pre-order #99cents
I'm excited -- A Very Wicked Christmas Anthology is now up for pre-order for only 99 cents! My novella, Love at First Dance (or Jane and the Vile Seducer) is included. (It's the sequel to The Reluctant Seductress, which is in the boxed set, Rakes and Rogues. It's the story of Sir Colwyn North, who was a secondary character in The Reluctant Seductress. He needs a Happily Ever After, too!)
Here's the blurb for my novella, Love at First Dance:
Sir Colwyn North’s uncanny seductive powers made him an excellent spy—but they also gave him the worst sort of reputation. Given his dreadful past, his only hope of winning the hand of the very proper Lady Jane Dew is to trick her into marriage. By way of seduction. While in disguise.
Jane has had enough of tedious propriety; she wants excitement. Duty-bound, she attends a Christmas house party at the estate of a scheming marquis, who has plans of his own for her. She intends to choose her own husband, and the son of the marquis is not on her list. The enthralling but nameless seducer who visits her nightly in her dreams might be…but first she has to find out who he is.
Will Lady Jane reject Sir Colwyn when she discovers the truth? Or will he find another devious way to capture her heart?
Have Yourself A Very Wicked Christmas!
Six of today’s most popular regency romance authors
come together to deliver a holiday anthology full of passion, promise, and
scandalous dalliance.
In Heather
Boyd’s The Christmas Affair, a
lonely shopkeeper offers shelter to a beautiful, not so innocent miss to
overcome the bitter memories of Christmases past, but could such a wicked
connection ever lead to a happily-ever-after? A dashing spy with marriage on
his mind seeks to rekindle the spark by any means possible with the woman who
claimed his heart in Love at First Dance by Barbara Monajem. A scandalous widow rescues the man of her dreams -
but his secrets could destroy their love in Nicola Davidson's Joy to the Earl. A masquerade ball was
no place to be reckless with your innocence, and yet one scorching look at the
masked highwayman urges Miss Partridge to do just that in Mistletoe and the Marquess by
Wendy Vella. In Lord Misrule by Donna
Cummings, a young widow chooses a handsome rogue to be her first lover, but
his regrets from a past Christmas may end their affair before it even
commences. A blue-stocking becomes a courtesan to escape a murderer in The Glittering Prize, an intrigue-filled
romance by Beverley Oakley about
finding love where it’s least expected.
This is an all-new collection of
stand-alone complete works.

Comfort Reads and a #Giveaway
I should stop apologizing for posting so seldom. It must be obvious by now that I'm not meant to be a blogger. But while I wasn't blogging, I did finish two stories -- a novella and a full-length historical romance. The novella will be in a Christmas boxed set, and the full-length is with my beta-reader now.
Anyway...today I'm blogging at Embracing Romance about comfort reads, and I'm doing a giveaway. (I like doing one every month.) So hop on over and tell me about your comfort reads, and maybe you'll win a copy of Rakes and Rogues, or a substitute if you already have it.

Release Day! Rakes and Rogues
Today is release day for the boxed set, RAKES AND ROGUES. For only 99 cents, it's a great opportunity to try six different authors of Regency romance. Five of the titles are previously published first-in-series stories. Mine, The Reluctant Seductress, is being published here for the first time.
Here's the blurb of The Reluctant Seductress:
When the lady in distress is a rogue…what’s an honorable gentleman to do?
Forced to work as a spy due to her uncanny seductive powers, Lettice Raleigh emerges from the war with her virginity intact and her reputation in tatters. When she is sent for a month to the estate of England’s starchiest marquis as a step toward reentering polite society, Lettice knows it’s a hopeless cause—but she doesn’t reckon with Lord Hadrian Oakenhurst, a younger son with a strict sense of right and wrong and an agenda of his own. Will Hadrian succumb to her seductive wiles—or has Lettice at last found the one man she can’t resist?
And here are some taglines for the whole set:
Rakes and Rogues abound in this six-book collection of secrets, spies, vengeance, and lust. From London’s glittering ballrooms to the intimate mischief of a pre-season country house party, be captivated by these sexy first in series Regency romances.
A duchess and her son’s heir join forces to solve a family mystery in ENGAGING THE ENEMY by Heather Boyd.
Barbara Monajem’s lady spy is a rogue in distress in THE RELUCTANT SEDUCTRESS.
An earl’s sensible plans go awry as he becomes embattled with a sworn enemy, and his best friend’s sister, in TO LOVE A HELLION by Nicola Davidson.
In Wendy Vella’s LORD GALLANT, newlyweds hide secrets and confront dangers of the heart as well as a deadly foe.
When a sizzling encounter with a handsome stranger at a masquerade ball leads to love, Fanny's dreams have nearly come true in RAKE’S HONOUR by Beverley Oakley.
In LORD WASTREL by Donna Cummings, a former rake needs a scandal-free wife to help him raise his child, but he's falling for London's most notorious woman instead.
