Reviews:
5 Angels! Regency fans will recognize the storyline. A lady disguised as a boy. A lord attracted to the disguised girl. The high jinx that ensues. Except there are enough twists and turns from the standard story to keep Paging Miss Galloway interesting... Paging Miss Galloway is a delightful Regency read.”--Fallen Angel Reviews.

Top Pick Award! Danielle is a character that you can't help but to be drawn to... Her drama along the way was amusing... PAGING MISS GALLOWAY was never boring... This was not a long story, which gave me more incentive to read it fast to see how the ending turned out. I was not disappointed.”--Romance Reader at Heart.

4.25 Stars! Susanne Knight does a wonderful job of weaving a story of two mismatched lovers who quickly have readers hoping for them to find their way to each other. This is a wonderful romp through Bath that leaves the reader eagerly turning pages to see what Danielle and Edward will do next. ...

Five Stars For New Regency "Sojourn Through Time"

Award-winning author Susanne Marie Knight is pleased to announce the release of SOJOURN THROUGH TIME, a new time-travel Regency romance novel published by Awe-Struck eBooks.

What happens when a nearly betrothed duke discovered a mysterious "package" delivered to his estate? As recently divorced Alexandra waits for her flight to London, she has no idea her actual destination will be in the past. Will she be able to overcome her culture shock and learn to entrust her future to a most persistent duke?

When Malcolm, the Duke of Milcaster, finds Alex on his estate, he immediately intends for her to be his new mistress. Alex, however, has other ideas on the subject. Can he overlook her peculiar ways and convince her that they are meant to be as one?

Reviews:
5 STARS! Clever, fascinating and highly entertaining! Susanne Knight breathes life into endearing characters in unusual situations that give emphasis to the word UNUSUAL. A must read.--Euro-Reviews.

Recommended Read! Alex was a joy to read. The Regency era of London is so stuffy. Alex was not, and made no bones about it. She wasn’t a brainless wonder dropped into a situation. She’s a smart, resourceful woman who defines her situation, and moves on. No hysterics. No “who is going to save me?” Sit back and enjoy this “clean” romance. You won’t be sorry.--Simply Romance Reviews.

Living in London

Greetings! As the summer slowly comes to a close, my Living in the Romance Writing with a Twist World has me living in London for my new WIP. Living in London vicariously, of course. Oh, to really visit! But then again, the date is October 1816, where things are very much different than today...

Or are they? According to the male protagonist, in 1816 an important issue being debated concerns the rights of the individual versus the rights of the state. Hmmm!

But enough politics! (Also a sentiment of A Noble Dilemma's hero.) Currently, he finds himself strolling along the Birdcage Walk bordering St. James's Park to the south. Sounds like a delightful place with a few rare Chinese trees, the Evodia Hupehenisis,

and many exotic birds--the pelican, for one.

While surfing the net, I came across an interesting story from two years ago about a pelican (a strict fish eater) sauntering over to a flock of pigeons in St. James's Park. It then grabbed one and held the pigeon captive in its beak. Twenty minutes later, the pigeon took an involuntary trip down the pelican's throat! Yikes. I guess the pelican forgot it was only supposed to eat fish. :))

Ta-ta for now!

New WIP!

Seems like forever (!) since I last posted. Been a bit behind in updating the Book-Of-The-Week, too. But the weather's been glorious, and it's almost impossible to stay indoors! Also, I've been deciding where to "travel" next. Can't stay away from England too long, so get ready for a good, juicy Regency!

What is the title, you ask? So far, A Noble Dilemma strikes my fancy. It's got a certain ring to it! It's too soon to give any details on what's going on, or who's doing what to whom, but I will include a picture that I'm using for inspiration as I write about Merry Ole London.

Looks crowded, doesn't it? Enjoy your own unusual locales that you plan to visit this summer. :))

Contessa As Cosmo Girl

Time again to talk about the Book-Of-The-Week, 2005 EPPIE Award Finalist for Best Historical Romance, The Contrary Contessa.

This novel deals with one man's prejudice against his own family. He has a ready dislike of anything or anyone non-English, and when his father marries a lady from Sicily... well, Robert Weston is seriously displeased.

Too bad, says his step-sister, Lexia Cappello, the Contessa di Fabriani. Unaware of the Sicilian tradition of "Fortuna"--true love, Robert gave Lexia the four colors of roses--red, white, yellow, and pink. She and he are destined to marry, no matter what he thinks! Can Robert overcome his pride to win the Contrary Contessa's heart?

Romance Writing With A Twist Factoid: Using Cosmopolitan's Virtual Makeover software, I made The Contrary Contessa a covergirl. She's perfect, don't you think?

Anyhoo, in addition to the EPPIE Finalist honor, The Contrary Contessa earned a 5 star review from The Romance Studio and a Readers Top Pick Award from Romance Reader At Heart.

The Contrary Contessa is available for purchase through Awe-Struck http://www.awe-struck.net/ and at Fictionwise.com www.fictionwise.com/eBooks/SusanneMarieKnighteBooks.htm, among other Internet locations.

Print copies are available at amazon.com and my website http://www.susanneknight.com/orders.htm

Christmas in June?

My WIP, ForEvver, is going into extra innings! Meaning only a chapter or two more to go. So let's talk about the Book-of-Week while the final chapters of ForEvver come together.

Christmas in June!

Have Christmas Card... Will Travel uses the Twelve Days of Christmas song to tell the story. A magic Christmas card sends lonely Meredith back in time... then returns her to her own century each morning. A handsome lord proposes, and she accepts, but then finds herself attracted to her fiancé’s honorable brother. How can she find happiness when she has one foot in the past with the other in the present? And what will happen when the twelve days of Christmas are over?

Romance Writing With A Twist Factoid: Originally, this story was set up to be a serial novel. Each week, a new chapter--corresponding with the twelve days of Christmas, would've been sent to subscribers, ending with Chapter Twelve: Twelve Drummers Drumming. In the end, Have Christmas Card... Will Travel was published all-in-one, and was the EPPIE Finalist for Best Historical Romance in 2008!!

Have Christmas Card... Will Travel is available for purchase through Uncial Press, http://www.uncialpress.com/ and at Fictionwise.com www.fictionwise.com/eBooks/SusanneMarieKnighteBooks.htm, among other Internet locations.

Print copies are available at my website http://www.susanneknight.com/orders.htm

Is it Spring? And a Continental Rose

That's the million dollar question here. Good weather some days... some not so hot. But flowers are starting to bloom, so maybe "warm and sunny" is in the future. Here's a picture of my yard to show that Spring is indeed on its way.

I still have the heat on in my office tho. :-( So, knowing this, you'll probably understand why I'm still in Maui with my WIP, ForEvver! I'm reluctant to leave the tropical paradise, as are my characters.

Meanwhile, back to the current Book-of-the-Week: A Continental Marriage. This award-winning Regency in the year 1814 deals with a American Rose, Nicolette Turner, who is summoned to travel across the Atlantic by her English grandfather, Lord Eldridge--a man who disinherited her beloved father.

Her grandfather wants her to marry Victor Kinkaid, Lord Cushing. Victor needs the money that Lord Eldridge offers. Nicolette accepts… only because her grandfather’s money sweetens the deal. Where does love fit into this financial transaction?

This novel takes place in Long Melford, Suffolk, and London, with a honeymoon trip to Southwold. Instead of pictures of those locales, I'm posting the original picture for the cover, done by artist Christine Poe. Here's my beautiful daughter!

Visit http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h_rL4WXUGCc to see a trailer of this book.

Hope you enjoy!

A Continental Marriage is available for purchase in print and electronically through Wings ePress http://www.wings-press.com/ and electronically at Fictionwise.com http://www.fictionwise.com/eBooks/SusanneMarie, among other Internet locations.

Print copies are also available through my website: http://www.susanneknight.com/orders.htm .
