And yes boys and girls it is a historical!
I have spoken a few times about Zebra and their marketing of new authors. And they have made it much easier to want to try these authors by packaging them in great covers (mostly) at an awesome price.
I completely admit the pretty red cover and lower price tag was the reason I first picked up What a Woman Needs. And I can even say the price is the reason I bought it knowing little about it.
But it was the author’s writing that had me interested in what was next and the excerpt that had me looking for the book and purchasing it. (the fact that the cover for What A Gentleman Wants caught my eye (I am a sucker for purple) didn’t hurt *g*)
Rosario has a great review of Caroline Linden’s debut novel, What a Woman Needs. As does Rosario’s guest reviewer Arielle. I can’t find any reader blog reviews for What A Gentleman Wants . Please post if you have one up or when you get one up!
Until then fellow Zebra author Laura Drewry (who just might have the worst western cover ever… more on that later but really… HOW are you suppose to know that is a western?) has a chat with Caroline Linden and one of my personal fave Zebra authors Teresa Bodwell (can you say writes westerns… I knew you could) has a review of the book up.
I have some guest posts by the author and a Q&A. Maybe we can find out what a gentleman really wants or more importantly when Caroline is gonna write a western or at least make sure there are more historicals coming *g*.
I really loved What a woman needs! That was a great debut novel.
Thanks, Danny! I’m so glad you liked it.
sorry, that was me, Arielle, clicked a little too fast.
Sybil, you are killing me with these coool guests!
I can’t wait for WAGW. I loved Woman sooo much, I just had to do the review and then I got Rosario to read it…
Ditto on the cover colors, the price and the content. Trifecta!!!
Ms Linden, good luck with Gentleman.
I saw the debut line and price and thought too, they had some wonderful covers and blurbs. I honestly love to try new to me authors and debuts. So I was excited about this line. I try not to miss any, especially the historicals. I have Caroline’s first book but will read soon. I so want to get this new one! Love this blog!
