Last Tuesday I had an unexpected free evening, which magically just happen to coincide with the release of A Rogue By Any Other Name. Isn't the cover beautiful????
This is the start of a new quartet. I can't wait to dive into it. I've only held off reading it because I know I'm going to need to devout an entire day to it.
I first read Sarah's book The Season - her first novel, a YA historical romance. I LOVED it. I had the chance to meet her that year at BEA.
Then she came out with her adult regency romance trilogy, which I loved. She also started me reading regency romances.
So imagine my happiness at being able to meet her again last week.
Plus she gave me a big hug when she saw me.
Details from the signing from notes I took on my phone.
* Jane Austen is the gateway author to romances
* Georgette Heyer wrote the romances that the world believes as fact, but it's not all true. She however, is still the master.
* Characters intertwined from various books
*Wanted the casino to be more like a character and not a setting. The casino - historically called gaming hells - is still surprising her with it's dark secret passage ways and other aspects.
*Swore she would never writhe a "marriage of convenience novel" but she did because it's the only way the story would have worked with Bourne.
*Bourne named from Jason Bourne (who doesn't love him?) Otherwise when she's in need of a name, she'll look at the streets of London. Sometimes she honors family friends by taking their last names too.
*The second book in the series will be out in December! And it's entitled: One Good Earl Deserves A Lover.
*She wrote The Season on a dare. She will also be returning to YA (after the quartet is complete) but it won't be a sequel to the Season. I can't wait to read more YA books from Sarah.
In all actuality I can't wait to read more books from her full stop.

Thanks for sharing!
