Lord Perfect eBook is $1.99—for a short time

Lord Perfect, the third book in the Carsington Brothers five-book trilogy (I know) is currently an eBook bargain, selling for $1.99 at Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and Apple Books. The deal may apply to other e-retailers as well, since they tend to match prices. I don’t know how long it will go on (or has gone on). The news came to me via BookBub this weekend.

If you’re new to the Carsington Brothers, here’s an inexpensive opportunity to meet them. Also, if you haven’t already met the Dreadful DeLuceys (relatives of my Noirot dressmakers), this book is the introduction. At the time, I didn’t realize how many more stories this disreputable family would provide. What I can say is, Benedict and Bathsheba’s story is dear to my heart.

Mr. Impossible eBook now $1.99

I just found out about this deal, so I can’t say how long it will last. I hate when you click on a deal and find out it’s already over, but that’s the chance we take. In any case, it’s Mr. Impossible, a book that readers often cite as second favorite after Lord of Scoundrels. With some readers, Mr. Impossible is #1. But if you haven’t met Rupert and Daphne yet, now’s the time to do so, and to travel through early 19th century Egypt—all for a couple of bucks—and make your own decision. Or you can pass the word to a friend.

Miss Wonderful eBook now $1.99

Miss Wonderful, which starts my Carsington Brothers series, was my first book after a hiatus of several years It was a great joy to return to romance writing with a love story set in Derbyshire, home of the Peak (what we now call the Peak District), and a place I had visited a few years earlier. Plot elements as well as my hero were inspired by actual events, persons, and places, a great satisfaction to my nerdy history mind.

Readers of Pride and Prejudice will remember that Elizabeth Bennett’s planned trip to the Lake District was curtailed. Instead, she went to Derbyshire, where she discovered Mr. Darcy’s beautiful house and estate. There’s a great deal more to Derbyshire’s beauties* and potential for romance, as my book, I hope, will make clear.

Meanwhile, if you haven’t yet met any of my Carsingtons, here’s your chance to start at the beginning, for a mere $1.99.

*And yes, the spelling is “Tor,” but spelling in the early 1800s was a little erratic.
