Buried Treasure: Deborah Simmons

first posted May 21, 2006
Deborah Simmons is an author I picked up because of All About Romance. They have some great reviews and interviews up on her.
At that point I had never read a Harlequin Historical but picked up The Last Rogue to try. I was glad I did.
The whole series is a delight - The Vicar’s Daughter, The Devil Earl, Tempting Kate, and The Last Rogue. If you can find them, grab them. She also has some great novellas in a few Harlequin Anthologies. The Officer’s Bride is one of my faves and The Brides of Christmas was recently rereleased.
Most of her books are written for the Harlequin Historical line, although the last two were for Berkley and her first book, Heart’s Masquerade, (one I picked up not too long ago) was Avon.
We haven’t had a new book from Deborah Simmons since, A Lady of Distinction, was published in May of 2004. When I checked in with her to see what she is up too, she told me:
I’ve spent some time working on a contemporary romantic comedy, but haven’t abandoned my historical writing.
Personally I have my fingers crossed her new historical proposal gets picked up but at this point I would be happy to just see her with a new book.

April showers bring May flowers, or at least that is what I am hoping, as it has been very rainy here in the UK throughout April. May also brings lots of Harlequin news and great books to read.
