If you loved Masterpiece Theater's The Jewel In The Crown mini-series, or Paul Scott's novel, then you'll love this book. Not to be missed!
Ya'll know how I say I'm not a big reader or fan of historical romance, then I chance upon some really awesome book set in the past? Yep, I get caught eating my words. But something you may not know is that one of the first historical romances I read back before I had this blog, is now available in ebook format and is on sale now in Amazon's January "Big Deal" Event. For only .99¢ until February 2nd, 2014, you can grab Blood Moon Over Bengal by my friend, author Morag McKendrick Pippin.
Blood Moon Over Bengal
by Morag McKendrick Pippin
Genre: Historical Romance | British Colonial India | Romantic Suspense
Free-spirited and ultra "modern" Elizabeth Mainwarring returned to the sultry, spice-scented land of her birth for one last go at mending the breach with her long-estranged sire. She met Major Covington-Singh: a prince and officer in her father's regiment. The man was tall, dark, and utterly irresistible.
Yet there was peril in desiring him. He warned her against falling for an Anglo-Indian. It might be "modern" times in England, but not here.
Even for the son of a duke and a maharaja. Why, even Elizabeth's father would disapprove! And then there were the recent happenings: the murders, the cruel strangling of those who were indiscreet. For Elizabeth to love Nigel meant death. And there was a...Blood Moon Over Bengal.
Better hurry, because the sale ends 2/2/14 and if you love truly unique historical romance, you really shouldn't miss this incredible opportunity to purchase Morag's book for less than a buck!

Conquering Passion
Anna Markland
Genre: Historical Romance | Medieval Romance
Only .99¢ (Sale ends January 31, 2014)
The year is 1066. Events are unfolding that will change the course of history.
The first book in the family saga series, The Montbryce Legacy, Conquering Passion introduces us to Rambaud, Antoine, and Hugh de Montbryce, brothers from a noble Norman family with a long and illustrious military history.
The eldest brother, Ram de Montbryce, is an ambitious warrior, greedy for glory and power in the service of his friend, William the Conqueror. His heroism at the Battle of Hastings helps secure the Norman victory and earns him an earldom in newly conquered England. Nothing can stand in the way of his ambition, especially not love.
He recognizes he has an obligation to marry, but believes the woman his father has chosen for him is unsuitable.
Mabelle de Valtesse has spent years wandering through Normandy with her exiled father. When his lands are finally restored to him and freedom is within her grasp, her father betroths her to Ram de Montbryce.
Together, Ram and Mabelle struggle to establish a powerful dynasty in a hostile and dangerous medieval world. They share passion, but can a warrior like Ram, who demands obedience in a wife, find love with the willful refugee brought to his bed in an arranged marriage?
They are drawn to each other physically, but it takes a cruel separation to make them realize the depth of their mutual love. Power and wealth will mean nothing if Ram cannot rescue her from her kidnappers.
Can love survive and flourish amid the carnage, hatred, betrayals, and dangers of the Norman Conquest?

Georgiana Darcy's Diary
by Anna Elliott
Genre: Historical Romance | Regency Romance
FREE! (For a limited time only!)
Mr. Darcy's younger sister searches for her own happily-ever-after…
The year is 1814, and it's springtime at Pemberley. Elizabeth and Mr. Darcy have married. But now a new romance is in the air, along with high fashion, elegant manners, scandal, deception, and the wonderful hope of a true and lasting love.
Shy Georgiana Darcy has been content to remain unmarried, living with her brother and his new bride. But Elizabeth and Darcy's fairy-tale love reminds Georgiana daily that she has found no true love of her own. And perhaps never will, for she is convinced the one man she secretly cares for will never love her in return. Georgiana's domineering aunt, Lady Catherine de Bourgh, has determined that Georgiana shall marry, and has a list of eligible bachelors in mind. But which of the suitors are sincere, and which are merely interested in Georgiana's fortune? Georgiana must learn to trust her heart—and rely on her courage, for she also faces the return of the man who could ruin her reputation and spoil a happy ending, just when it finally lies within her grasp.
