A Classic Regency Romance Trading Card!

A new week... a new card from The Book Nook, my own category of collectible cards for my Romance Writing With A Twist Books.

This week’s book, number 25, is A NOBLE DILEMMA, the popular classic Regency romance.

At the end of the Blog you’ll find the digital card that you can click on and save to your device.

Here’s a blurb about A NOBLE DILEMMA:

Bethany has a guilty secret that if discovered, will scandalize Polite Society and her new love, the Earl of Ingraham. What would Jane Austen do??

Amazon.com and Smashwords.com

Here are some fabulous reviews for A NOBLE DILEMMA: 

4 Books! A Noble Dilemma is a tight intriguing novel placed in the regency era.... Subtle surprises, above average characters, and a wonderful eye for detail set A Noble Dilemma apart. Secondary characters are both important and singular. Activities are appropriate and fun to read about; from dinners to carriage ride, dinners to the obligatory trip to London. Fans of this particular type of historical will enjoy this – most especially because it both fits, but somewhat escapes the mold. Truly charming.--Long and Short Reviews

4 Cups! This is a classically crafted Regency Romance with likable characters and an easy to follow plot. ... I enjoyed the gradual building of the feelings between the two [characters]. Bethany is my favorite of a great cast of characters. She is caring without being too sweet, and her problem solving abilities definitely help the plot along.--Coffee Time Romance & More

Susanne Marie Knight's book is very enjoyable read, she does a nice job showing just how limited a woman’s life was in this period of history so far as finding a way to earn an income. This book was fun to read and a great escape from the stress today. It shows just how far women have come in this Western civilization in the years since this novel’s time period. The characters were warm, real and three dimensional. They were people I’d like to have in my own family.--Got Historical Romance Reviews

Fans of light Regency romance will find that A Noble Dilemma's characters are likeable and the sweet romance builds to a traditional happy ending.--Night Owl Reviews

I loved this book. The heroine is so refreshing. She's sweet without being a saintly Mary Sue. You have to love a girl who wants to have it all.--Reader Comment.

I hope you enjoy Bethany and David’ story, and also the digital card, A NOBLE DILEMMA, in my Trading Card series.

A Dream Realm Award Finalist Trading Card!

Ready for an out-of-the-ordinary read? Here is the newest card from The Book Nook, my own category of collectible cards for my Romance Writing With A Twist Books.

This week’s book, number 18, is COMPETITORS!, the popular Halloween romance short story.

At the end of the Blog you’ll find the digital card that you can click on and save to your device.

Here’s a blurb about COMPETITORS!:

 Anthropology enthusiast Vivianne Quinn gets more than she bargained for when she makes a date to “meet” a Neanderthal!

 Amazon.com and Smashwords.com

 Here are some fabulous reviews for COMPETITORS!:

“Could Neanderthals still exist? And if so, would they look just like the rest of us? Susanne Marie Knight takes those questions and runs with them in COMPETITORS! and shows us that not everyone is what they appear to be. When readers first meet Vivianne, she is a tormented young woman who constantly wonders why she didn’t also die in the car crash. But as the book progresses, she becomes the strong woman she must have been before the accident. As for Max... Max, Max, Max. What a combination of alpha maleness and intelligence, which this reviewer believes will cause many women to swoon. He’s dominating, yet gentle, and treats Vivianne with great respect. An interesting and fun-filled romance, COMPETITORS! is the perfect read for those looking for something a little different in their love stories.”-- Romance Reviews Today

“Susanne's been chosen as one of the best e-book authors the Internet has to offer for COMPETITORS! ”--Nights and Weekend.com. Susanne Marie Knight certainly has a diverse imagination, and she blends suspense with a haunting question--why did Neanderthals abruptly vanish 30,000 years ago--in COMPETITORS! But what if they’re not extinct? What if they walk among us? This is a plot that can easily sound farfetched in the wrong author’s hands, but Ms. Knight pulled it off, suspending my belief and wrapping me in an enthralling tale. You want an author with unique style? Susanne Marie Knight is your gal.--Nights and Weekends.com

“4.5 Books! “I liked COMPETITORS! I have read other books about Neanderthals and this species never came across as anything other than primitive. The Neos in this book are caring, gentle people who value their ancestors and want what everybody wants in life - to be loved and understood. I enjoyed the growing awareness and romance between Vivianne and Max. Despite their differences and the dramas they are living through, there is a bond between them that neither can deny. It was amusing to think that the Neos consider Vivianne and her people savages. The derogatory term of calling someone a Neanderthal may not be so bad after all. It's always good to see history turned on its head. I also liked the fact that the killer is not known until the end. I thought I knew who it was but I was wrong. The book also got me wondering if there are Neos amongst us. There are weirder things out there. If you enjoy books that are beyond the normal, then I would recommend COMPETITORS! It's a fresh, unique romance that is kind of sweet and overwhelmingly passionate.--Once Upon A Romance 

“Author Susanne Marie Knight has done a convincing job of making the exotic Max as hypnotic and flat-out irresistible as he needs to be, to accomplish everything he is called upon to do. Max isn’t only a sex hunk, he is smooth, educated, and well traveled. He can communicate mentally, and his sense of smell gives new definition to the word “intimate.” Knight will have readers knocking on her door asking where they can get their own Neanderthals. In addition to Max, Vivianne has a flock of friends to turn to in her tough times. Vivianne’s identical-twin brothers, her husband-hunting friend Fran, and Max’s cat Eins with his divided loyalties all contribute to the workings of fate – fate being the saving of Vivianne so she can be with Max. Her associates are amusing, even at their most irritating. Max’s friends, on the other hand, are Very Serious People. It isn’t easy for Max to have a personal life when The Mission is All. It keeps the other Neanderthals from having as much dimension as Max does. COMPETITORS! is well thought out. Knight has more than a superficial knowledge about Neanderthals, and she has used it to shape her what-if into a fun, original plot.”-- Reviewers-Choice.com

I hope you enjoy Vivianne and Max’s story, and also the digital card, COMPETITORS! in my Trading Card series.

A Halloween Treat Trading Card!

It’s now October--which means Halloween’s coming! Here is the newest card from The Book Nook, my own category of collectible cards for my Romance Writing With A Twist Books.

This week’s book, number 45, is “True Love And Candy Corn”, the popular Halloween romance short story.

At the end of the Blog you’ll find the digital card that you can click on and save to your device.

Here’s a blurb about “True Love And Candy Corn”:

Can trick or treating promise true love to a thirteen-year-old girl?

Amazon.com and Smashwords

Here are two fabulous reviews for “True Love And Candy Corn”:

5 Stars! Halloween is all fun and games until a fresh-faced teen gets cursed, or perhaps it's a blessing in disguise. Forevermore isn't what thirteen-year-old Becky had in mind when she dressed up as a witch to head out for trick or treating on All Hallows' Eve, but when she knocks on the door of apartment 319, she ends up with more than a Snickers bar. As she takes the 'treat' from the sorceress and rejoins her friends, magic ensues, and her heart is lost to the delightful Frank Palmer who lives next door. Cut to nine years later, Becky returns to the fateful building with her niece and nephew. As they approach apartment 317, the home of her true love from many years ago, her heart flutters wildly as she wonders if destiny will reunite them. In this cozy, romantic romp, Susanne Knight shows us how a tri-colored confection can be the catalyst for lasting devotion. True Love and Candy Corn will leave you smiling!--Amazon Review.

5 Stars! The moment I finished reading this I had to write this review. Something about the story enthralled me. I am a sucker for happy endings.--Reader Review.

So, if you love candy corn but worry about the sugar, try this zero calorie treat on Halloween night, but be sure to reward your trick-or-treaters... just in case a real “witch” is on the other side of your door! Just joking!

I hope you enjoy Rebecca and Frank’s story, and also the digital card, “True Love And Candy Corn” in my Trading Card series.
