Five Star Rating for Wanton Widows

20/8/2015

My first rating for Wanton Widows is a 5 star one on Goodreads. Thank you, dear reader!
If you've read Wanton Widows: Three Short Regency Romps, I'd love you to rate it, either on Facebook or Goodreads. And if you would write a review, that would be even better.
The reality for authors is that reviews are really important. Some bloggers won't even take an ad from me for my 99c book if I don't have at least 10 reviews with an average of 4 stars or more.
To all the readers who have rated or reviewed my books in the past, my grateful thanks!
<3 Isabella Hargreaves.

What's the book about?
'A Regency peer’s dilemma – how to marry a bluestocking?'
Passionate bluestocking Jane Brody, whose mother’s early death left her to raise eight siblings, campaigns to free women from society’s shackles of poor education, marriage and motherhood. Jonathan Everslie, Marquess of Dalton, must marry. Jane is the only woman who doesn’t bore him, but her politics are dangerous. When Jane's father dies suddenly leaving the family in poverty, the only way out is marriage to the wealthy and conservative Dalton. Can she give up her ideals to marry him and save her family? Does he dare risk his political career by embracing her cause to win her love?'

Excerpts from Wanton Widows

3/8/2015

0 Comments

 
It's less than a week until WANTON WIDOWS is released, so I thought you might like to read how the stories start.

"What a Widow Wants"
      
The young Dowager Lady Caroline Newberry, like all the debutants at Lord and Lady Massey’s ball, was dressed in her best finery and on the hunt for a man. Not just any man. A specific type of man. He didn’t need wealth or power or to be in need of a wife.

He did need to be available, well-made and good in bed.

"The Widow's Wedding Night"
   
Arabella Linfield looked out the window of the carriage as it swayed to a halt in front of the Grosvenor Square mansion of Jerome, Earl Linfield.

The Earl opened the door and jumped onto the footpath, then turned to assist Arabella. “Welcome to your new home, my dear.” His handsome face was lit by a broad grin and framed by his curly brown hair.

She smiled up at him. “I can’t wait to be alone with you at last.” They had been married for eight short hours. She wanted him.

"Wooing the Wealthy Widow"
    
The Viscountess Helena Tremoyne sat at her table eating a late breakfast and reading the morning broadsheets. Her butler interrupted her, his voice betraying what his face did not. “A Sir Hercules Standfast wishes to speak with you on an important personal matter.”

She sighed and refolded The Gazette. “Another fortune-hunter, Sims?” she asked the grey-haired man.

“Quite likely, your ladyship. Shall I send him away?”

“No. I will see him and, if he looks presentable, initiate the usual selection process.”

More excerpts soon, when I talk with Noelle Clark, Georgie Tyler, Amy Rose Bennett and AusRomToday on their blogs, in the coming weeks.
