I love Sarah Maclean, and even a quick visit to her website will tell you why. First of all, there are her taglines:
I write books. There’s smooching in them.
Best. Taglines. Ever.
But wait! She has a Regecy-specific tagline, too:
Fetch the smelling salts.
And you’d best have your maid fetch those smelling salts because you just might swoon from reading her books – she’s that good. Sarah is smart, funny, and her writing is impossibly accomplished. Her first book, a Regency YA, debuted to enthusiastic reviews and her first adult romance, Nine Rules to Break When Romancing a Rake, landed on the New York Times bestseller list, the USA Today bestseller list, and won the Romantic Times “Historical Romance of the Year” award. Yowzers!
Sarah has a new book out this week. It’s Eleven Scandals to Start to Win a Duke’s Heart, which is book 3 in the Love By Numbers series. It’s already gotten phenomenal reviews, including a starred review from Booklist, a top pick from Romantic Times, and a coveted “A” rating from Dear Author.

Sarah’s books are witty, romantic, poignant, and utterly charming. If you haven’t yet read her, you simply must!
There were some other fantastic books released this week, including Kris Kennedy’s Defiant, Mia Marlowe’s Touch of a Thief, and Anna Campbell’s Midnight’s Wild Passion. In fact, Anna will be here on my blog this Friday to talk about her latest book and to give away a copy. It’s always a good time when Anna is in the house, so be sure to stop back.
To celebrate the release of Sarah’s book and my own release of My Favorite Countess on May 3rd, I’m giving away a copy of Eleven Scandals to Start to Win a Duke’s Heart. Just tell me what books you’re looking forward to reading in the next few weeks. One commentor will win a copy of this wonderful book!
