And finally, our Fab New Romance of the week is a Scottish historical romance, ABDUCTED AT THE ALTAR by my Jewel sister Cynthia Wright, Book 1 of her new Brides of Skye series.

Review of the Month (is it yours?)
|
|
Each month I post my favorite review from the last 30 days...and if it's yours, I'll send you a free ebook!
This month's review (below) was posted on Apple CA for THE VISCOUNT’S WALLFLOWER BRIDE, one of the Sweet & Clean books I’ve written with my daughter Devon. I love this review because it's enthusiastic—and also because it demonstrates that you don’t have to write a lot to make authors happy with your reviews!
