Sourcebooks Casablanca Romance Authors

Please give a big welcome to fellow Casablanca Author Leigh Michaels, who has a new release in stores this month: The Wedding Affair ! It’s great to be back with all my fellow Casablanca authors for the launch party for The Wedding Affair , my September book. It’s my third single-title spicy historical romance, after a long career of writing sweet contemporaries. Like my other two historicals, The Mistress' House and Just One Season in London, this is a triple story – three heroes, three heroines, and three romances which all wind together during the time leading up to a Regency wedding day. The Wedding Affair came about partly because I was reading the manuscript of my previous book, Just One Season in London , to my husband (is this a guy to love or what?), and when we got to the end, he said, “But we didn’t get to see the wedding!” “The wedding would be anticlimactic,” I said. “Trust me, I’m the writer. The story is over and all the characters are happy, so the w...

Please give a warm welcome to Leigh Michaels, who is back to party with the Casababes to celebrate the release of her second book with Sourcebooks, Just One Season in London! Thank you to the fantastic company here at the Casablanca Authors blog, for inviting me back to celebrate the launch this month of Just One Season in London , my second historical novel. After writing 80 sweet traditional contemporary novels, I was ready for a change – that’s why my most recent books are historical romances instead. But with every book I write, I try to do something different – to push just a little harder, to see if there’s something extra I can do to make the story spectacular for readers. So though Just One Season (like my first historical, The Mistress’ House ) is a triple story, it’s a tale with a difference. This time the three stories are woven together. The three romances of the Ryecroft family – young Viscount Ryecroft, his sister Sophie, and their mother Miranda – are going ...

Please give a big Casababe welcome to fellow Sourcebooks Casablanca author, Leigh Michaels; celebrating her new release (and first with SBCasa!), The Mistress' House! Thanks for having me on the blog today! I’m delighted to put on my Regency costume (no corset, though) and sit down for a chat with Casa Babes and their readers about The Mistress’ House . Have a seat while I pour you a cup of virtual tea and pass the cream cakes. Though this is my 81st published romance novel, it’s my first-ever launch party. But that’s not the only new thing here. The Mistress’ House is my very first historical romance, and it’s my first release from Sourcebooks. It’s my first single-title book, and it’s my first sexy romance. And it’s the first time I’ve written a triple story – three heroes and three heroines woven together into a single book. Whew! That’s a lot of firsts for one story – so pardon me if I hold my breath while I wait for reader reaction. The Mistress’ House is intended to be a l...
