Portrait of Passion, Idyllwild Book One

When I began Portrait of Passion I never dreamed it would be the first in a three book series. I did not consider how difficult it would be to find a publisher. I never imagined I would spend months both dreading and anticipating opening my email. Nor did I truly appreciate how happy I would feel when I finally found an offer for acceptance amid all the rejections.  I did not ponder the perils and pitfalls of promotion. I didn’t even have a Facebook or Twitter account.

And I certainly never considered the possibility that I would come to love the story and the characters I’d created.  

But I did fall in love with Beatrice and Simon, and with the tale of three siblings bonded by blood, love and a small estate in the North of England. It broke my heart to see Portrait of Passion and the Idyllwild Series all but disappear into the netherworld due to a convoluted and complicated set of circumstances over which I had no control. 

I now have both the rights and the creative control of all three books in the series back in my loving hands. 

So it is with great pleasure and a bit of giddy excitement that I am re-releasing the Idyllwild Series, beginning with Portrait of Passion. Widow’s Wicked Wish and Unraveling the Earl will soon follow. 

I hope you too will fall in love with Idyllwild, with Beatrice and Simon, with Olivia and Jack, and with Henry and Georgie. 

For a limited time, Portrait of Passion is available for $0.99 and free on Kindle Unlimited. 

And not only Portrait of Passion. More than forty wonderful ebooks will be on sale for $0.99 May 22nd through May 28th at The Historical Romance Sale! Don’t miss out on these great deals and even better reads! 

Congratulations to March’s Corset winner, Julie Stafford. I’m afraid April came and went with no corset giveaway and no newsletter, but I hope May’s pretty little pink and black corset will make up for my missing an entire month.
