My True Love Gave to Me

1998

Christmas, a time of peace on earth, joy…and love? Genevieve Munroe is determined to give her newly impoverished family one last happy Christmas, including making peace with their long-time rivals, the Pentercasts. But she is shocked when the handsome oldest son Alan proposes a wager: if he can give her all the gifts from the Twelve Days of Christmas song, without spending a penny, she must marry him. Alan’s wild gambit is his last-ditch effort to win Gen’s heart. After all, no Munroe would ever consider marrying a Pentercast. But perhaps the joy of Christmas can open her eyes to the man behind the wager, a man determined to turn the twelve days of Christmas into a lifetime of love. Book 1 in The Marvelous Munroes series, this sweet, clean traditional Regency romance was originally published as The Twelve Days of Christmas by Zebra Regency.

Catch of the Season

1999

Allison Munroe is about to have her much-anticipated come out in Regency Society, where she’ll meet dozens of eligible gentlemen, and she couldn’t care less. Ever since last Christmas, only one man has dominated her thoughts, but country squire Geoffrey Pentercast is the last man she should want. Better to set her sights on the catch of the Season, the Marquis DeGuis, who, wonder of wonders, seems already smitten by her. Geoffrey is entirely out of his element. How could he have fallen in love with his childhood friend? And how does a brash and bold country gentleman like him compete for her attentions in London high Society, especially against the likes of the wealthy and titled marquis? As Allison’s mother plots to part them, can Geoffrey prove he is not only the catch of the Season for Allison, but the love of her life? Book 2 in The Marvelous Munroes series, sequel to My True Love Gave to Me, this sweet, clean traditional Regency romance was originally published by Zebra Regency. Here’s a taste: Allison stopped at the top of the stair. “What is so important that it brings you all the way to London?” “Concern for you,” Geoffrey replied, and despite all his efforts, his deep voice came out entirely too much like a caress. “I’ve missed you, Allison.” She brightened as if his words had lit a candle inside her. She opened her mouth, then seemed to think better of what she was going to say. “What’s wrong?” he asked. “Nothing,” she said, fidgeting. “I simply realized that I must comport myself like a lady. So I will tell you that I find myself thinking of you often as well.” “You do?” Though her words had been spoken with uncharacteristic maidenly restraint, they were exactly what he had been hoping to hear. He squeezed her tiny hand in his much larger grip. “You can’t know how happy I am to hear you say that. I just want you to know, Allison, that you needn’t go through all this.” Allison pulled her hand back, frowning. “What do you mean? Are you talking about my Season or do you speak of my debut ball? Of course I must go through with that. The invitations have already been sent.” “Not the ball, moonling,” he said with a smile, the old pet name for her too easy on his tongue. “Of course you’ll want to do that. I know your fondness for dancing. I’m speaking of your London Season. You don’t need it.” Allison shook her head, frown deepening. “But every young lady of proper family is expected to have a Season. Sometimes I feel as if I’ve been waiting my entire life for it.” “But Allison,” he protested, determined to make her see, “the purpose of a London Season is to find a suitable match. You have no reason to do that.” She blinked, freezing as she had when she’d first seen him. He hurried on, intent on making his case. “I know I’m not much of a candidate in your mother’s eyes. She’ll most likely prefer this marquis fellow.” “You, you’re proposing?” She sounded as if she was having trouble breathing. In fact, she seem to be breathing at all. She wasn’t even moving.

The Marquis' Kiss

2000

A Paragon With A Secret Thomas, the decorous Marquis de Guis, is considered the catch of the season. Only he knows that two of his brides-to-be have cried off when he sealed the bargain with a kiss. Now, bent on marriage but certain he can never conquer a lady's lips, this all-too-proper paragon has chosen a miss he's sure cannot reject him-improverished, eccentric Margaret Munroe. But the lord will find there's more to learn along the road to love and matrimony than the perfect kiss. A Hoyden With Nothing To Hide They don't call her an Original for nothing. Lovely, lively Margaret flouts convention by racing her horses and working ceaselessly to help fallen women. She cannot believee the rich and reserved Thomas-whose sea blue eyes dizzy her with desire-truly cares for her. Yet he seems quite besotted...except for a steadfast refusal to kiss her. How can she entice him into the impassioned love she hopes-nay, intends!-to be theirs for eternity?

Sweeter Than Candy

2017

Widowed Cynthia Jacobs will do anything to support her three young sons, left impoverished by their father’s sudden demise. Anything, that is, but marry one-time suitor Daniel Lewiston. Cynthia’s family and Daniel’s conspired to match them up years ago, but Cynthia struggled to see the shy boy next door as the dashing husband of her dreams. Wealthy Daniel Lewiston always admired the beautiful Cynthia, even knowing she’d never settle for him. But when her sons beg him to court her so he can be their father, his heart melts and Cynthia reconsiders. Perhaps what starts as a marriage of convenience for the boys can turn into something more, something that is far sweeter than candy. Fourth book in The Marvelous Munroes series after The Marquis’ Kiss (February 2017), this sweet Regency-set novella was originally published by Kensington in the anthology A Match for Mother. The Marvelous Munroes: what’s more marvelous than falling in love?
