Aloha to Amelia Grey and A GENTLEMAN SAYS "I DO"


"Amelia likes flowers, candlelight, sweet smiles, gentle laughter and sunshine." 

I have been a long time fan of Amelia Grey - my keeper shelf includes DASH OF SCANDAL, NEVER A BRIDE, and A LITTLE MISCHIEF - books that have been or will be re-released through Sourcebooks (see Amelia's website for more information at this link).


Amelia's appreciation for nature's wonders reflects in her books, including her newest release, A GENTLEMAN SAYS "I DO", Book Five in the Rogue Dynasty Series:

Her Writing Talent is Causing All Kinds of Trouble...

The daughter of a famous writer, Catalina Crisp has helped her father publish a parody that makes Iverson Brentwood's whole family the talk of the town, and not in a good way.

Because He's the Reality Behind the Story...

Furious and threatening, Iverson storms into Catalina's house, demanding satisfaction, but the infamous rake has finally met his match. With her cool demeanor and intense intelligence, Catalina heats his blood like no other woman in his notorious history...


I posted my review of A GENTLEMAN SAYS "I DO" on Amazon at this link.  I am giving away a print copy of A GENTLEMAN SAYS "I DO" to one randomly selected commenter. To enter the giveaway,

  4. Hi Kim!

    I'm thrilled that you have Amelia here with you today! The first book of hers that I read was Never A Bride back in 2001 and I haven't missed one since.

    Asking us not to use books (a given) as one of my favorite things did make my choices a little easier.

    # 1 - My wonderful husband who after 42 years still thinks that I'm the best thing that ever happened to him. I disagree of course because no one could ever ask for a more dedicated family man who when our boys were toddlers told his friends that he didn't "babysit" he was just being a father.

    # 2 - My sons who are under the impression that I'm the best baker and cook in the world so always love to come home to visit.

    # 3 - My 5 terrific grandchildren - (3 boys and 2 girls) to keep me on my toes and not let me get old.

    # 4 - The friends that have graced my life who have given me support or help in times of need without ever expecting anything in return and have rejoiced with me when I've overcome hardship. I thank them for the joy they have shared with me and for understanding me and all my quirky ways.

    # 5 - For the joy of simple things like a walk on the beach, the rain in April and May that reminds us the suuny days and flowers coming soon, the beautiful color of the fall leaves and the first pristine snowfall in winter. In other words the beauty of the change of the seasons and the joys that brings to us all.
