NEW BOOKS:
Today ELIZABETH BOYLE’s Memoirs of a Scandalous Red Dress releases, following its sister book, Confessions of a Little Black Gown, and rounding out the series (we think… Elizabeth might have more from this cast to give us). Website Value-Add: A pretty and helpful family tree to help us keep these fabulous characters straight, and a beautiful bookmark featuring Red Dress, and the upcoming next releases from Julia Quinn and Eloisa James.
Earlier this month DIANE GASTON’s The Unlacing of Miss Leigh, was released from eHarlequin Undone and shot to number 1 in eHarlequin sales. Website Value-Add: Easy linking to three options for your ebook romance reader. You could be reading this in five minutes. What are you waiting for?

I love the new pdf bookmark from Eloisa James, Elizabeth Boyle and Julia Quinn!
I too like the new bookmarks.
Emily, do you read romance novels yourself? Just curious since you make so many romance sites and JQ is your sister.
Hi Laura, I *do* read romance novels! I love them. And I have read at least one novel by every one of “my” authors. In some cases every or almost every one. Though in recent years I have been behind a backlog of paperbacks. For instance, I have all three of Monica McCarty’s most recent trilogy stacked on my desk, beckoning me. I can’t wait to read all three, back-to-back (I have read excerpts, of course). I also am lucky enough to get to read some books early — JQ’s, of course (I have read What Happens in London — fun fun fun!), and all of Jane Porter’s books (I get those many months in advance), and currently on my desk, keeping company with Monica’s trilogy is Pamela Palmer’s first Feral Warriors book, due soon — again, I am only a few chapters in (no time! no time!)
What I love about romance novels is that they have such rich characters trying to navigate the age-old waters of love. And I love a good love story.
I also love working on sites aimed at people who are so loyal to these authors and their books.
Lucky me!
Hi Emily,
Thanks for your response!
I love romance novels, and I think it’s very cool that you get to read some in advance!

A big hooray for Diane Gaston’s Undone. She also has that anthology out.
