AN UNSUITABLE BRIDE and A WEDDING WAGER: NEW BOOK GIVEAWAY AND eBOOK DISCOUNT NEWS

GIVEAWAY ENDED
AN UNSUITABLE BRIDE
BY JANE FEATHER
ABOUT THE BOOK:
Long ago, young Viscount Bradley’s prudish family forbade him to marry his beloved. Now, the aging lord has plotted a subtle revenge. His three nephews can split his fortune, but only if each marries a fallen woman. Two have found brides who meet the terms . . . and all depends on the youngest, Peregrine Sullivan. New York Times bestselling author Jane Feather’s Georgian trilogy concludes with a sexy tale sure to delight.

Only desperation would drive a lady to disguise herself in hopes of employment, but the twenty thousand pounds that their father promised beautiful Alexandra Douglas and her invalid younger sister has vanished into the hands of the greedy cousin who inherited the estate. Alexandra, in search of justice, embarks on an elaborate charade to infiltrate Combe Abbey, her ancestral home, and secretly take the money back. 

Peregrine, visiting the Abbey, is intrigued by a woman whose mind matches his on every level. Who is this middle-aged spinster with a young woman’s eyes and a youthful step that even a limp cannot disguise? Sensing some scandalous secret, Perry assumes the lady would delight in being rescued. But his efforts are rebuffed; Alexandra will take care of herself and her sister, thank you very much. Can Perry court the daring and independent young woman, win her heart, and be the last brother to wed?
ABOUT THE AUTHOR:
Jane Feather is the New York Times bestselling author of more than thirty sensual historical romances. She was born in Cairo, Egypt, and grew up in the south of England, and she has more than 10 million copies of her books in print.
AN INTERVIEW WITH AUTHOR JANE FEATHER:
This is part of an Interview with Jane Feather taken from the Simon & Schuster website. If you wish to read the entire Interview, visit their site HERE. 
Q. You were born in Egypt, grew up in the south of England, and now live in Maryland. Explain how the various places you have lived have helped shape you as a writer.
A. I was born in Egypt because my parents were stationed there, but as I left when I was three years old, I doubt it had much influence on me. I had a very “proper” English childhood and education, with a heavy emphasis on reading and literature. But I probably wouldn’t have started writing novels if my husband and I had not taken the plunge and moved our family to the States in 1978. Shaking up life in one aspect makes it seem much easier to contemplate taking quite different paths in another.
Q. Who is your favorite author? Who are you reading now?
A. I have many favorite authors; it would be impossible to pick any one. At the moment I’m reading The Elegance of the Hedgehog by Muriel Barbery.Q. What is next for you? Are you currently working on anything?
A. I’m just beginning a romantic trilogy set in Georgian England toward the end of the eighteenth century.

ABOUT THE BOOK:
Lady Serena Grantley was born to the nobility, but fortune's whim placed her in control of her gamester stepfather, who uses her beauty to lure young men to his gambling tables. Serena even dismissed her first love, the Honorable Sebastian Sullivan, at her stepfather's command. But when he attempts to force her into a liaison with a dissolute earl, Serena resolves to do his bidding no more. Sebastian is the only man who ever captured her heart, and it is to him she turns.

Torn between family loyalty and the woman he loves, Sebastian faces a devilish dilemma. His uncle is ailing, and time is running short. Desperate to find a solution, Sebastian conceives a dangerous plan—a wager that could bring him and Serena happiness at last . . . or separate them forever.

I think romances where one of the parties are hiding something are interesting because eventually it all comes out---how that happens is fun to watch.
