Hello Dear Readers!

Do you remember like a YEAR ago when I got my little gossiping lady logo, sipping on her tea, I asked you guys to name her, and I chose a name, and then got lost in the sands of writing all the books. Well, things have slowed down a bit, and I'm taking care of loose ends, even really old ones. 🤪

When asked if she prefers Baroness Katherine or Lady Charlotte, she winked and replied, "Call me Kat." So there we have it. The baroness likes a bit of gossip, and she's always ready to help bring two misguided love birds together. Bit of a matchmaker, she is.

I also promised a giveaway earlier this year, just for my newsletter, and totally flaked. Again ... so many books pouring forth from my fingertips! But that loose end is tied up now!

This giveaway is just for my newsletter crew, and I have two different prizes, one which will go to an international winner and another which will go to a winner in the US. The prize for the international giveaway is a digital copy of Bring a Boxer to His Knees as well as Daring Debutantes swag from Wolf's online shop. The prize for the US winner is a physical copy of The Romance Reader's Companion and Daring Debutantes swag.

You can enter the international giveaway here.

And you can enter the US giveaway here.

Ready for some book recs?

Do you guys have your copy of Annabelle Anders' Merry Miss yet? It's in the Cocky series, and it looks SOOO fun!

Looking for strong heroines? Look no further than this collection!

Looking for Kindle Unlimited reads for November? Here you go!

I hope you find something that hits JUST RIGHT for your reading mood!

So, before I say goodbye for the moment, I thought I'd give you a book update. Daring Done Right, book 6 in the Daring Debutante series is up for pre-order right now! And it will be available on November 24. It's always a little sad to leave a series behind, but while this is the last book in the series for now, I never say never to returning to a world I've loved writing in.

I'm also close to completing the Cavendish series. Love a Lady at Midnight will be published in February with a final novella in May. Something tells me I may dip my toes into Victorian Historical Romance, though, in order to tell little Pansy's story somewhere down the road (way... way down the road...).

Finally...

I've been sitting on some really exciting news for so long, working with a brilliant cover designer on covers, a series logo, coming up with titles, etc, but I've been taking it slow, trying to finish out my current series before teasing much of the new stuff.

I think I'm going to stay quiet a few more newsletters. But it's KILLING ME, so soon my friends, soon and I will spill all about the next series I'm writing that will hit kindles in the summer of 2023.

Okay, you've twisted my arm. I'll say ONE thing. 🤣

It's a spinoff series from my London Secrets series. If you've read Secrets Between Lovers, you've already met one of the main characters. This dude has been stomping around my imagination since then. I remember my critique partner saying, "he's getting his own book, right?" to which I responded something like OOOOOHHHH YEAH. 😆

So then I had to go to my well of potential heroines and ask, "anybody want this guy?" I had a few takers, but only one that was just right. I'm writing their story right now, and I adore them. So all is right in the world.

So eyes open, dear readers, for more details to come!

Charlie Lane
