A Gentleman’s Game   is now available! You can find it in print, in ebook, and  maybe even in a tower on your head. This is the first novel in my Romance of the Turf trilogy, which began in November with a prequel novella The Sport of Baronets .  This series is set in the Regency horse-racing world and tells the stories of each of the troubled but talented Chandler siblings. In A Gentleman's Game,  charming Nathaniel Chandler and secretive Rosalind Agate  travel the roads of England together, guiding stubborn Thoroughbreds and facing old secrets that might get in the way of new love.  Reviewers have called it “fascinating” and “a damned delight of a book.” My seven-year-old daughter said "the pages are really soft." (Uh...ok.) Want to see what they mean for yourself? You can read Chapter 1 on my website . And if it looks like your kind of story, grab it at your favorite retailer.

In less than seven weeks, my new historical romance series begins! These Regency horse-racing stories--the Romance of the Turf trilogy--kick off on November 3 with a digital prequel novella, The Sport of Baronets .  Behold the beautiful cover art: The novella went through copyedits and page proofs not long ago, and I haven't put up an excerpt anywhere yet. Today I thought I'd give you all the first look at The Sport of Baronets ! In this novella, the feuding Crosby and Chandler families--represented by Bart Crosby and Hannah Chandler--fall into a mystery about a missing racehorse. This scene follows their difficult first meeting and their peace-making bit of detective work together. Here, Hannah and Bart have met in the study of the Crosby family home to look through family archives, and...well. You'll see. +++++ “I assume you know of our parents’ financial…issues.” When she nodded, Bart added, “Even if gambling had not all but ruined my family, I would not want to...

June 29th? Im. Possible. Ok, not impossible, but the summer has flown by so quickly that I can hardly believe July is almost here. I've been keeping busy with my upcoming releases from Sourcebooks: the Romance of the Turf series, focusing on  a talented but troubled family at the heart of Newmarket's Thoroughbred-racing scene.  I've just finished copyedits on the introductory novella, "The Sport of Baronets," which will be out in January. In February comes the first full-length novel, A Gentleman's Game --which I finished revising at the beginning of June. (My editor likes it! Yay!) The second novel is due in September, so I'm working on that now. Not that I've spent the whole summer at a computer so far. Last weekend, Little Miss R and I took a trip out of state for a family reunion. While she played on a water slide, I caught up with my relatives--including one of my aunts, who gave me a manila envelope full of childhood "treasures" I...
