send Mattie Newcastle back to the past.

popular author Susanne Marie Knight. Due to receive her masters
from graduate school, Mattie Newcastle has a very bright future

models as a bride in a period-piece photo shoot. In a blink of
an eye, she finds herself in the year 1816, in London, and
married to a very aristocratic marquess! How in the world did
this happen? Determined to discover the truth, Mattie crosses
swords with a voluptuous rival, a badly used new friend, a
woebegone Duke, an on-the-shelf lady, a gambling mother-in-law,
and a very eager bridegroom, not to mention a pointy-earred...
No spoilers! Don’t miss this unique Regency romp!--Regency

happens when Mattie Newcastle agrees to help her uncle with an

Treasures? Instead of a faux wedding ceremony, it turns out to

era! Surprise! After reciting her vows, she discovers she’s
actually married to the Marquess of Chesterton, and he... he
expects her to be his wife in every meaning of the word. Follow
Mattie’s adventures as she tries to figure out just how she
traveled back in time and ended up being married to a
finger-licking-good lord of the realm. 5 stars: A highly
enjoyable story!--Twists On Romance Reviews

A possessive office assistant? A persistent medical doctor? All
this and more in this poignant love story: THE ONE THAT GOT
AWAY. Sometimes our soul mate comes along and we’re just not

Science Fiction Romance
A dangerous interstellar assignment to
colonize a nonterrestrial world forces Naressa to butt heads
with a powerful alien leader and a stubborn Terran crewmember.
* Ms. Knight
poses an interesting dilemma in THE XENON ADVANTAGE, her latest
science fiction romance novel. A prosperous Earth is determined
to expand to other planets. A near-duplicate, uninhabited world
is discovered, and SolSpace sends an exploratory ship, the
Nautilus, to pave the way for future colonization. But wait, is
the planet truly without intelligent lifeforms? Is SolSpace
secretly aware that the planet is inhabited, and sends a
starship anyway? What about the ship’s crew, do they know what
awaits them on Acrux 4? The intrepid Nautilus crew must deal
with gut-wrenching wormholes and powerful, hostile aliens, in
addition to circumventing the differences between Earth natives
and Earth colonies around the solar system, as well as a
telepathic native from an Earth colony on the distant planet
Alpheratz 3--Naressa. Far from her distant home for the first
time, Naressa has her hands full dealing with an amorous alien
leader and a jealous Earth commander, along with the trials and
tribulations of life aboard a tin can ship. Definitely a 5 star
read!--Twist On Romance Reviews
* 5 Stars! What in the
world is a Xenon Advantage and how can I get it? The easiest way
is to read THE XENON ADVANTAGE and enjoy your journey into the
vast expanse of interstellar space. Be sure to wear your
“blocking cap” to ensure complete privacy! I loved watching
our heroine, Naressa, learn how to not only handle her
crewmates’ inappropriate thoughts when she doesn’t have her
blocking cap on, but also how she grows into the mature woman
she’s destined to become. A thoroughly enjoyable read!--Decatur

Can working girl Claressa
Lauriano outwit a not-to-be-trusted billionaire who is
determined to have his way with her?
* Trust me... this contemporary
billionaire romance is 5 stars! In the battle of “Working Girl
Vs. Billionaire” who is going
to be the winner? Claressa takes care of her grandfather and her
younger sister. Quite frankly, she minds her own business.
Suddenly, she comes to the attention of the higher ups at
Beaumont Industries where she works, and neither her nor Elliot
Beaumont’s life will be the same again. I laughed out loud at
the scene where Claressa slaps Elliot--much to his surprise. No
one ever told this billionaire “no” before. A very
satisfying read!--Just Imagine Fanzine
* Beware of billionaires offering a single red rose! Claressa
unsuspectingly accepts the flower, and ends up fake engaged to
billionaire Elliot Beaumont. As she struggles to end this
pretend arrangement, Elliot becomes more and more enamored of
her. He wants the engagement to be real. Will he win Claressa
over? I love how this down-to-earth gal unwittingly lassos in
the uber-rich Elliot. That guy never had a chance! Enjoy!--S.G.

THE KILLING KISS--Minx
Tobin Murder Mystery--Case Seven
Minx worries that Los
Angeles’ newest serial killer is after her husband, Gabe. But
maybe it’s Minx that the killer wants to “kiss!”
5
Stars! Minx Tobin says it best: It’s old home week--with
Number Seven in the Minx Tobin Murder Mystery series. I’ve
been a fan of Ms. Minx since THE BLOODSTAINED BISTRO so
naturally I scooped up THE KILLING KISS. How lovely to get
reacquainted with all these wonderful characters! I thoroughly
enjoyed reading how Minx handles or juggles life as a new mother
along with her fitness career. This book can be read as a
standalone, however my advice is to go back and read books One
through Six, too. Seeing how Minx and Gabe evolve in their
relationship is immensely satisfying. Don’t miss this!--Mystery
Maven’s Reviews
There’s
a Kissing Bandit running around LA, knocking out folks and
leaving a decal of red lips on their foreheads... and sometimes
elsewhere. When these kisses turn deadly, fitness instructor
Minx Tobin Harris has to solve this mystery puzzle because she
believes her new hubby, Gabe, is being targeted by the killer.
THE KILLING KISS is a delightful and inventive tale reuniting
all the major players in the Minx Tobin universe. I enjoyed
reading how each character “grew”... or not... in the year
and a half since Book Number Six. If you enjoy well-written and
satisfying whodunits, give the Minx Tobin Murder Mysteries a
try. You won’t be disappointed! Two thumbs up!--On The Edge

friends to heal from a past trauma. The Duke’s son, Robbie, is
pure gold and a surprise connection links the past and the

THE
ENTITLED--A
New
Alien Abduction Science Fiction Romance
After being
turned down for an interstellar mission, Gelsey ends up going
anyway when she is abducted by an alien.
When
most people think about Alien Abduction, they think of a
late-night, anonymous capture, the purpose of which is to do
nefarious deeds to the Human. In THE ENTITLED, the abduction is
almost by consent. Almost. And there are very worthwhile reasons
for this snatching of an Earth woman, Gelsey, by alien warrior
Zaccheus. As one character told Gelsey, “Who wouldn’t want
to get abducted by Zaccheus?” Indeed! Both Gelsey and Zaccheus
learn to respect each other and the cultures on both of their
worlds, but giving up her planet for his is a monumental
decision for her to make. Will she do it? As for Zaccheus, I
loved how he came to change his way of thinking: pairing with an
insignificant Terran? Repugnant!! I am “Entitled” to read
this wonderful story, and you will be too! Two thumbs up!--On
The Edge Reviews
5
Stars! An alien abduction, that’s what Ms. Knight’s newest
novel, THE ENTITLED, is about. This is another action-packed
adventure and highly sensuous read by the Queen of Romance
Writing with a Twist! Take a flight to a faraway planet. Solve
the mystery of a world fighting with itself. Have a taste of
Zaccheus, an Entitled one and one of the sexiest men
alive--human OR alien. Will Earther Gelsey accept or reject
proud Brhite warrior, Zaccheus? Grab a copy and find out!--Norwood

Is it

5
Stars!! A great way to start the New Year! Carter is a
billionaire with a problem in bed. No, it doesn’t have to do
with women... then again, maybe it does. After he visits with
his long-lost great grandmother--who tells him she practices
Appalachian Granny Magic--his sleep problems get worse... or
better, depending on how you look at it. Carter is a wonderfully
appealing character who treats everyone with respect. He is
interested in his nighttime ghost, but also feels a connection
with a Doctor Gabby, who won’t give him the time of day.
Getting these two together was fun to read. Their delightful
banter made me keep turning the pages. I had no idea how this
unusual situation would resolve itself. Ms. Knight delivers once
again!--Just Imagine Fanzine
