What a lovely theme for January at the Romance of Reading page on Facebook!

the beautiful Avon Books edition

the gorgeous Pan Macmillan edition

Join me there tomorrow, January 6, as I guest-host all day and share some fabulous giveaways including copies of my latest, The Redemption of Philip Thane (which just received a starred review from BookPage and was named one of the Top 10 books for January!), and all six books in the Penhallow Dynasty series.

My December contest ends tomorrow, December 31st! The prize? A signed, print copy of Engaged to the Earl PLUS a $20 Amazon gift card!

In a starred review, John Charles of Booklist cheered:

“Readers who crave romances written with style and substance will cherish Berne’s latest entrancing addition to the Penhallow Dynasty series. The author’s effortlessly elegant writing and impeccably rendered Regency setting are perfectly paired with a full cadre of exquisitely realized characters and a delightfully done friends-to-lovers love story that is fueled by equal measures of sweet charm, sharp wit, and heart-melting sexual chemistry.”

The Historical Novel Society said:

“Jane Austen would approve. Strongly recommended.”

And here’s quite the compliment from the Oregon Coast Bookmonger!

“Over the years, this book reviewer has developed a reputation as a curmudgeonly sort when it comes to romance novels. So imagine my astonishment when I picked up Engaged to the Earl . . . and found myself devouring it like a plateful of bonbons. Nary a cynical thought crossed my mind. Not one dismissive ‘harrumph’ passed my lips. . . . If you want a story that will make you chuckle, swoon and generally feel warm-hearted, Engaged to the Earl fills the bill.”

And I hope you’ll enjoy the excerpt, too. It’s the scene in which my hero and heroine meet for the very first time . . . and let’s just say that Margaret is less than impressed with Philip. You’ll also make the acquaintance of Margaret’s doughty aunt, a wordsmith who publishes thesauruses — and she’s not impressed with Philip either. :)

Says the Romance Dish:

“I have a feeling I’ll be chuckling a lot while reading this book.”
