So excited to see this very special (to me!) book doing so well. It has spent the last 8 days at #1 on the Amazon charts.
HYACINTH isn’t the only one of my books that has been doing well this week. I FINALLY counted up the books that have made the top 100 lists (these are the various historical romance lists on Amazon) and there are SEVEN!!
They are:
NOTORIOUS, OUTRAGEOUS, THE FOOTMAN, PHOEBE, THE BOXING BARONESS, AND SELINA (which is on pre-order and yet made it onto a list!)
The success of this book is really motivating me to work, work, work! So THANK YOU to all those readers out there who support my w with their precious time and hard earned money!!
I JUST finished edits on another of my books, THE CUTTHROAT COUNTESS, and have begun work on BALTHAZAR: THE SPARE, which is the first in a brand new series. I am super excited about this series as it leaps “The Pond” so to speak and brings a family of rowdy Americans to London. This is also a Victorian Era series, so that is a nice change of pace for me.
As a writer, there are few things more rewarding than seeing one of your books getting reader love. I don’t read GR or Amazon myself, but Mr. Spencer goes through reviews and picks out those reviews he thinks I will enjoy the most. I have to say that I have really loved the ones I’ve read about HYACINTH. I feel like a lot of people really “get” her (even though she’s not pretty or popular or “normal”), which makes me feel like I succeeded with what I set out to do, which was tell a story about a woman who doesn’t measure success the way society does and never really expected to find happiness in marriage. And yet she does! Yes, of course she does, this is a romance, after all!
Have you read HYACINTH? You can read it for free if you have KU and it’s only $4.99 in ebook, which is less than one cup of coffee from Starbucks and it will keep you amused for a LOT longer.
Here is the link, just in case you are interested. You can use the free “look inside” feature and read at least 3 chapters of the story if you want an advance peek…
