Dear Reader,
Nothing of any interest has happened to me this week, so I'm giving you a book rec and a gratuitous image of Regé-Jean Page shirtless instead. I'm also going go ahead and assume that you've already
seen the awesome period thirst trap that is Netflix's Bridgerton. And if you haven't, you really should! I mean the eye candy alone...
😍😜😍😜😍
...am I right?
When I first heard Shonda Rhimes was teaming up with one of my favorite romance authors, Julia Quinn, to bring her delightful family saga to life, I was both thrilled and scared. Because as we all know, awesome plus awesome doesn't always equal awesome.
Sometimes two geniuses team up and you get something magnificent like Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark. And other times, you get Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull. Which, 😢, I so wanted to love!
Happily Bridgerton met and exceeded my every expectation and I'm looking forward to season two with bated breath. So with that in mind I'd like to recommend my favorite book in the series, The Viscount Who Loved Me. Which is going to be the basis behind the next season of the show.
I adore this book! It's an enemies-to-lovers story, which is one of my favorite tropes. It's also funny and sweet and was part of the inspiration behind my close but crazy Prince family. Plus it's smoking hot in all the right places. And has a hilarious slapstick routine brought about by Newton, the overweight corgi, who remains one of my favorite fictional
pets.
So happy reading. And if you have any romance reads you'd like to recommend to me, I'm always on the lookout for a good book!
XoXo,
Edwina

BOOK NEWS
This week I've been in editing mode. Matrice, my lovely editor, got The Wild Prince back to me in record time. I've sent it off for the final proof read. Then on June 1st, I hand it over to the fabulous folks at One Night Stand Studios (great name, isn't it? 😆) so they can get started on the audiobook
version.
I'm so excited about having this series turned into audiobooks! The Ice Prince is already being recorded and I've got Brooke Bloomingdale as my Cyn narrator and Sebastian York (!!!) as the narrator for Cameron. (*jumps about with delight*) I should have a sample to share with you guys in the next couple of
weeks.
And just a friendly reminder, The Ice Prince is on pre-order for $2.99 right now. This is a special price for all you discerning early birds and will go up to the regular $4.99 price three days after it's released. So remember to pre-order your copy before time runs out!
