EVERYTHING BUT THE EARL is now available!

Hello and happy Monday! If you, like me, were mostly trying to avoid the Internet on this long holiday weekend, you may have missed that Everything but the Earl went live over the weekend!

Earl is the second book in the Night Fire trilogy. Here’s the book description:

When Grace Midwood finds her betrothed kissing another, she doesn’t know what to do. Her parents want her married off this Season, but obviously that match is out of the question. But where will she find a husband?

Owen Thomas, the Earl of Caernarfon and a Welshman who spends most of his time in London, has no interest in marriage. But Grace catches his eye at a ball and before he knows it, she’s compromised and he’s proposing marriage. Not that he minds. Grace is smart, witty and very beautiful.

After a hasty marriage, he sends her to live at his estate in Wales, a place Grace is greatly looking forward to exploring. Each thinks their marriage is the perfect solution to their dilemma. Grace gets to live her life as she pleases and Owen can return to London and fulfill his duties in Parliament.

The events of this novel take place about a year after I Never Forget a Duke and there’s a continuation of the secondary romance set up in the first book between Lark and Anthony, so I do recommend reading these in order.

If you want some more background information, I put an author’s note on my website.

Anyway, I’m keeping this short and sweet. I’ll get back to actually sending newsletters soon. I’d like to share my fave books of the year with you all, for example—I read some good stuff in 2025! But in the meantime, please enjoy the new book!
