Here is a short sample from the book:
“What would it be like, to have four knights for my very own?” Adelia said.
“I believe it would be the most wonderful thing,” her lady-in-waiting said. “I’m equally certain there’s many a woman in your lands, perhaps most of them, who’d be delighted to take your ladyship’s place. Think on each of the men. Sir Lyrikos is so poetic and well-spoken. Sir Victor’s not given to fine words, but he’s a brave, great mountain of a warrior. Sir Hugo is thoughtful and sensitive. And Sir Edgar’s wise and most caring.”
“You describe their merits very well, Grace.”
“And there’s one further thing.”
“What’s that?”
“They’re lusty and potent. Your ladyship surely won’t be disappointed to have any one or more of them in bed with you.”
“Grace,” Adelia said, flushing slightly.
“They’re proud, bold knights who’ve been abroad in the wars. One thing’s certain, which is they’re hardly strangers to the company of women, probably many women, while they were off campaigning. I’m sure they well know how to pleasure your ladyship under the bedcovers.”
“I imagine you’re right,” Adelia said.
She recollected her thrilling night at the confident hands and powerful manhood of Lyrikos. She immediately felt her body respond to the passionate memories. How might the other knights gratify her?
“Is your ladyship minded to tell the knights what you think this evening or to sleep on it?” Grace said.

The Duke’s Holiday by Maggie Fenton
Book One in The Regency Romp Trilogy
The Duke of Montford, cold, precise, and more powerful than the Prince Regent himself, wants things the way he wants them: cross-referenced, indexed, and at his beck and call. And he always gets what he wants.
Until he meets Astrid Honeywell. And a giant pig. And a crooked castle in the middle of Yorkshire.
Astrid Honeywell, staunch bluestocking, has struggled for years to keep her family together by running the estate and family brewery after her father’s death. She is not about to let the tyrannical Duke of Montford steal away all she has worked for because of some antiquated contract between their families. So when the priggish Duke comes to call, she does everything in her power — including setting the family pig on him — to drive him away.
She didn’t expect him to be so … well, infuriatingly attractive. Every time he scowls at her, she has the most improper desire to kiss him — and a whole lot more.
Montford can’t decide whether to strangle Astrid or seduce her. The one thing he knows for a fact is that he must resist his powerful attraction for her at all costs. He has a very proper, very demure fiancée waiting for him back in London, after all. But when Astrid is kidnapped by a disgruntled suitor and whisked off to Gretna Green, Montford will do anything to get her back.
Will these two drive each other to Bedlam … or can they make it to the altar without killing each other?
Includes an OCD Duke, a fiery heroine, mistaken identities, errant livestock, pompadours, drunken declarations, a touch of smex, and enough witty banter to sink a ship.
NOTE: This is a sexy historical romance. Recommended for 18+ due to adult content.

Winter Fire by Kathy Fischer-Brown
When Ethan Caine pulled the unconscious woman from the half-frozen creek, he had no idea that his world was about to explode. Dressed in quilled doeskin of Iroquois design, she stirred up dark secrets from his past. At the same time, she was everything he desired. But she was more Indian than white, and on the run for murder. He needed to know the truth. He needed to find it within himself to trust her.
Banished by the Seneca Indians who had adopted and raised her, ostracized by the whites in the settlement, Zara Grey wanted only to be accepted. “Ethancaine” treated her with kindness and concern. It was easy to trust him. But her Indian ways disturbed him, and in her heart she would always be Seneca.
“Kathy Fischer-Brown weaves a tale of intrigue set to a backdrop of history and romance. The story moves along, keeps you interested right up to the end, and the love story between Zara and Ethan is tender and heartwarming. The author does an excellent job of weaving in the cultures clashing against each other, the unfounded prejudices of societies that don’t understand each other, while still keeping the focus on the romance. This is a touching story, the characters are vivid, the history is accurate, and the details really give the story a sense of place.”
