Hi Jane and welcome to HJ! We’re so excited to chat with you about your new release, How to Cross a Marquess!

 

Tell us about the book with this fun little challenge using the title of the book:

My new book is called How to Cross a Marquess
 
Five years ago, Roger Berwick and Fenella Fairclough rebelled when their fathers tried to marry them off. They would not be ordered about!
 
A whole lot has happened since then. They’ve both changed, and now a fiery attraction has flared between them. It’s just too ironic. Circumstances have brought these former enemies much closer than they ever could have anticipated. But various people don’t like that idea at all. The path to a happy future is convoluted.
 
So for these two:
 
H is for history. Theirs is complicated.
O is for oh! Neither expected the passion that has flared between them. So surprising with someone you’ve known for most of your life. But people change.
W is for the worrisome anonymous letters spreading rumors about them through the neighborhood. How do you fight an invisible adversary?
 
T is for time. There seemed to be so much, and now there’s nearly none.
O is for opponent. But who is it?
 
C is for choleric. Roger finds his temper sweetened by his lovely neighbor.
R is for reminiscence. Roger’s mother has much to recall.
O is for overset, as circumstances spiral out of control.
S is for snakes. Fenella’s nephew collects them. And the kitten wasn’t his fault!
S is for – yes, another snake!
 
A is for alternatives, which must be found.
 
M is for Macklin. The earl stands ready to help in any way he can.
A is for allies, always so important.
R is for rackety. Fenella never saw herself in that light.
Q is for quizzical, a mood that’s going around.
U is for underhanded, which Fenella’s family tends to be.
E is for elope. With everything that’s been happening, really, there seems nothing else to do. And they’re right at the Scottish border, which makes it easy. Sort of.
S is for slipping away, and
S is for safely settled, in the end.
 
 

Thanks for blogging at HJ!

    It is enjoyable to read a story when people get together years after knowing each other. People grow and change. That growth can often result in a person quite different from the one known earlier. It sounds like Fenella and Roger have both change a bit and who they have become are much more compatible than before.
