About the author:

L. L; Neal grew up reading romances and particularly loved Regency romances. She took up writing when the romances she was reading started to blur together and to look the same. Her first set of Regency romances, The Tumbling Green romances, are set in Regency times but with strong-willed heroines.

L. L. Neal comes from a family of eight and grew up with five sisters, giving her insights into how siblings do—and don’t—get along. L. L. Neal currently lives with her husband of seventeen years, two dogs, and two cats. In her spare time she’s crafty: sewing pillowcases for charity, knitting wool socks for family, crocheting lap throws, and quilting.

Here is a short sample from the book:

laughing and telling Aunt Hyacinth the wedding was on, and explaining how he was getting a special license so Edwina couldn’t escape him. Edwina was smiling at Ferdy. “Oh, thank heavens, the wedding will go forward! I was worried for a while there, Edwina. Ferdy, you should be ashamed of yourself for ignoring my sister so blatantly for so long—it wasn’t nice!” Lilly exclaimed.
Edwina looked at Lilly and said, “He doesn’t need to have anything happen to him, the marriage will take place. Now, do be a good girl and go find Mama, would you?” She looked at her sister and said, “Not now, I need Aunt Hyacinth. The footman found me to ask me about the champagne. Do we have any more?”
Aunt Hyacinth shook her head at this and said, “I will have to go deal with this. Both of you, I wish you happy.” She walked off, and Lilly grunted at them as she walked away as well.

    Glimmers by Barbara Brooke

    0 out of 5

    A simple touch and suddenly, Paige is in the past — living someone else’s life, seeing the world through her eyes, and feeling her deepest emotions.

    Paige used to think memories existed only in one’s mind. But now, she knows better. She can’t explain how or why, but she has “glimmers”: special moments that have remained behind — clinging to a letter, a ring, even a worn-out pair of boots.

    When Paige returns from each glimmer, a small part of her has changed. Who is this gourmet cook, fashion designer, feisty lover? And how is she supposed to explain this to her family without them thinking she has completely lost her mind?

    Paige believes her new talent is a gift, until she’s transported into her sister’s memory and catches a glimmer of her secret life.

    Take this humorous and romantic journey as Paige learns about true love through the lives of three extraordinary women.

    Shadows of Asphodel by Karen Kincy

    0 out of 5

    When Ardis discovers a man bleeding to death on the battlefield, she knows she has to walk away.

    1913. In her work as a mercenary for Austria-Hungary, Ardis has killed many men without hesitation. One more man shouldn’t matter, even if he manages to be a charming bastard while he stands dying in the snow.

    But when he raises the dead to fight for him, she realizes she must save his life.

    If a necromancer like Wendel dies, he will return as a monster–or so the rumors say. Ardis decides to play it safe and rescues him. What she doesn’t expect is Wendel falling to one knee and swearing fealty. Ardis never asked for the undying loyalty of a necromancer, but it’s too late now.

    Ardis and Wendel forge an uneasy alliance underscored with sexual tension. Together, they confront rebels, assassins, and a conspiracy involving a military secret: robotically-enhanced soldiers for a world on the brink of war. But as Ardis starts to fall for Wendel, she realizes the scars from his past run more deeply than she ever imagined. Can Ardis stop Wendel before his thirst for revenge destroys him and everyone else around him?

    The Duke’s Holiday by Maggie Fenton

    0 out of 5

    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.

    Margaret of the North by EJourney @eholychair

    0 out of 5

    Margaret is intelligent, independent-minded, and passionate about her own concerns. But how does she carve a niche and an identity for herself within the repressive constraints of Victorian society? This sequel to Elizabeth Gaskell’s North and South takes off from the concluding scene in its retelling on the BBC miniseries. It is a Victorian feminist bildungsroman (coming-of-age novel) couched in romance.

    Gaskell wrote Margaret Hale as a character blossoming into one who did not fit the mold of the typical woman of her time. She exudes a natural self-assurance and a brooding intelligence that butts itself against John Thornton, the virile alpha male who is, nevertheless, vulnerable.

    Margaret of the North focuses on how Margaret whittles away at Victorian repression—both self-imposed or socially-dictated. She marries John Thornton and confronts not only her place in a rapidly changing society but also her growing awareness of her persona as a woman with compelling sexual, familial, and self-actualizing needs. One who wants a voice and makes a mark.

    The romance is not only in the love between John and Margaret but also in the adventure and excitement Margaret undergoes as she discovers herself, a journey that happens quietly and mostly internally.
