Vintage backlist from Millsand Boon...

A lot of my vintage backlist titles have been available in the US as digital downloads for several years now, but during November, December and January, Mills and Boon UK are putting them out in the UK for the first time.

And Mother Makes Three received a Gold Medal review from RT when it was first published - excuse me while I quote in full, it was my first Top Pick!


AND MOTHER MAKES THREE
by Liz Fielding
Genre: Series, Harlequin Romance, Current Series Imprints

RT Rating

Master storyteller Liz Fielding delivers another keeper in AND MOTHER MAKES THREE (4.5G) as she creates a page-turner packed with an emotional conflict, endearing characters, angst-filled scenes and snappy dialogue. When a beautiful woman discovers that her famous sister has a daughter who desperately wants to meet her mother, she decides to impersonate her sister for a day and then come back into the little girls life as her aunt. Everything backfires, though, when she meets the handsome father and begins to hope to permanently play mother and wife - until her sister returns with a few secrets of her own.

His Little Girl didn't grab Shannon Short in quite the same way, maybe because it was released in BookClub only in the States. It was, though,  my first RITA nominated book so it's very special to me.

I can't say I'm thrilled about the dayglo pink cover on the covers, but I am totally thrilled that they are available for readers who've only recently discovered my books.


 

THE GREAT ADVENT CALENDAR GIVEAWAY

DAY ELEVEN

11th December

Okay, guys, Zahir is trying to do the honourable thing, Diana is lying low and Sadie is under siege so you're just going to have to put up with me today. Or you could take a peek at the Harlequin Romance Authors Blog where there's a Spotlight on Lucy Gordon. But not, of course, before you've checked out the Advent Calendar.

First, you'll want to know the winner of Day Nine, AND MOTHER MAKES THREE. The book went to Cryna, in Calgary. Congratulations, Cryna, the book is on its way.


Behind the door today is THE ORDINARY PRINCESS.

I'm always being asked where I get my ideas from and mostly it's a bit of this and bit of that. But with this one there's no doubt. Audrey Hepburn, Gregory Peck -- ROMAN HOLIDAY.

Of course there's a twist. In this story it's the heroine who's telling the prince he needs a break from royal duties. Of course she has An Ulterior Motive. You just know it's all going to end in tears.

For a chance to win the book and find out what happens, send me an email at liz @lizfielding.com with Day Eleven in the subject line, your name and address in the body of the text and oh, the name of the other actor in Roman Holiday, Gregory Peck's partner in deception.

See you tomorrow!

THE GREAT ADVENT CALENDAR GIVEAWAY

DAY NINE

9th December

Ack, it’s the weekend and there’s no one around but me to tell you what happening today! (The picture is a clue to the whereabouts of the missing Diana, btw!)

It’ll have to be brief, I’m still working on a book that is turning out to be the biggest “pineapple” in the world. Two chapters to go and not an ending in sight…

Anyway, the winner of the book behind the 7th December door in the Advent Calendar, A NANNY FOR KEEPS, is Joanne from Lincoln. The book is on it’s way, Joanne. I do hope you enjoy it.

Today the book behind the door is AND MOTHER MAKES THREE. This has a special place in my heart as it was the first of my books to be released retail in the US. Until then they'd only be available to subscribers to the Book Club. And it received a Gold Medal review from Romantic Times. Pretty much perfect, in fact.

I was inspired to write this by something my mother said when she was godmother to a little girl called Lisa. She already had older sisters called Linda and Lesley and my mother shook her head and said "That'll cause trouble when they're older..." All those Miss L .... Of course in those days mail came through the letterbox -- as it still did when I wrote the book.

For a chance to win this book just send me an email at liz @lizfielding.com, with Day Nine in the subject line and your name and address in the body. No question today -- it's Sunday, the day of rest -- but if you haven't already received the first chapter of Diana's story, just say, and I'll send you that as a little taster.
