Publishers Weekly genre

review round-up

(November 12th issue)

Enchanting the Lady by Kathryne Kennedy (Dorchester): "Little-noticed Felicity Seymour is a woman with a problem: she can't take control of her parents' lands until she can prove her magical abilities, of which she's never had the slightest hint. When she meets a handsome were-lion baronet, Terence Blackwell, she's surprised at his interest; what she doesn't know is that Terence smells the taint of relic-magic on her, the same magic that killed his brother. Resolving to learn her secrets, Terence courts the worried wallflower and is as surprised as anyone when he falls head over heels. Soon after they marry in secret, Felicity discovers that people she's trusted all her life are conspiring to steal her magic, her title and her land. Now she's got to stop them with the help of her new husband-but how much does she really know about her mysterious mate? The latest from Kennedy (Beneath the Thirteen Moons) is simply delightful, set in a fantasy-touched Victorian England that's imaginative, historically vigorous and ripe for further adventures. Felicity is a pleasantly unassuming heroine and is well matched in Terence, while the identity of the villain will keep readers guessing until the very end." (Jan.)

That is very exciting--congratulations! Sounds like something I'd enjoy reading.

Do you have copies, Kathryne? Could we conceivably order a signed copy from you? Are you going to be promoting it (book tour or interviews)?

Aniko: Thank you.:}
Nancy: Enchanting the Lady will be in bookstores, Walmart, Target & Kmart in January. Only a few more weeks. Eeek!
Alison: I don't have my author copies yet, but I should be getting them soon. I will be doing some booksignings here in Arizona, but otherwise I'm doing guest blogs on the net where I will be giving away a few autographed copies, and I've already done several interviews. I'll make sure to post an article about the recent interview I did, and the one I have scheduled for 1-1-08, when the book releases. Thank you so much for your interest!:}
Marianne: Cyber-hug.

That was a good review. As I said before, I will have to check out your book. It does sound really good.

Thank you so much Tina, Lisa, Nyota & Cortney. Sorry for the late reply, but I'm not receiving notices of comments when they come in. So I'm slow, but I always stop by at least once a week to check, so I'll always reply.:} Thanks again for your support.
