We had a very busy month in April here at Waxcreative, so busy we didn’t wrap up April until now, May. Nor did we post much (er, anything) here on our own blog (our cobbler’s kids conundrum continues). But we did help usher in a great big bunch of great new reads, each launching off of author sites containing some cool features, and –as ever– we’d like to share…

NEW BOOKS:

ELOISA JAMES released Paris in Love, and it’s not a novel. This is her memoir of her year abroad in Paris. AUTHOR WEBSITE BONUS: This whole site is a bonus — I hardly know where to start you off: book club kit, cast of characters, audio excerpt, video excerpt… Délicieux!

KATE NOBLE released two books this month: If I Fall and a related special e-Novella release The Dress of the Season. AUTHOR WEBSITE BONUS: Kate spent April touring blogs to talk about love, life, writing, and her new releases — so there is currently a lot more Kate to be had, which is a bonus unto itself.

MAYA BANKS released Sweet Addiction, Book 3 of the Sweet series. AUTHOR WEBSITE BONUS: Check out Maya’s growing Fun Stuff page. And, pithily, more fun stuff really is simply more fun.

JANE PORTER released His Majesty’s Mistake in the UK, Book 2 in Jane’s Royalty Duo — the pair is set to hit North America very soon! AUTHOR WEBSITE BONUS: Jane’s contests are always always always bonus events. Read an excerpt of this new release to enter.

CHRISTINE WARREN released On the Prowl, Book 6 in The Others series. AUTHOR WEBSITE BONUS: We love Christine’s essay On Faeries and Faerie.

JENNIE LUCAS released A Night of Living Dangerously. AUTHOR WEBSITE BONUS: In the mood for brownies? (I always am.) Don’t miss a delicious brownie recipe from Jennie, which makes an appearance in last year’s Sensible Housekeeper, Scandalously Pregnant. (Still my favorite all-time title.)
