WITH HIS LADY'S ASSISTANCE: Humorous romantic Regency mystery

[Cheryl Bolen]

I have just released the first book in my humorous romantic Regency mystery series. Book 1 of the Regent Myseries is titled WITH HIS LADY'S ASSISTANCE.

A short description:

To help him mingle in the highest echelons of English society to investigate threats on the Prince Regent's life, super spy Captain Jack Dryden must feign an engagement to the exceedingly plain spinster, Lady Daphne Chalmers. Together they embark on an investigation which brings them into grave peril – and makes the captain reevaluate the skinny maiden who has a most amorous effect upon him.

This books has had two reviews, and both were five stars!

[JaimeRae]

Sounds intriguing!

[Cheryl Bolen]

Thanks for checking it out, Jamie.

[Cheryl Bolen]

I've been pleased with the sales and the reviews.

[Cheryl Bolen]

This has been out less than four weeks, and sales have been nice.

[Cheryl Bolen]

Keeping my fingers crossed. So far, very good reviews on this book.

[Cheryl Bolen]

Nice feedback on this book.

[Cheryl Bolen]

Still wondering about this cover. Would love feedback. I know it's not romantic, and publishers have pretty much stopped doing iconic covers...

[Cheryl Bolen]

We're working on a new cover for this.

[Cheryl Bolen]

I am so thrilled. Today this book cracked into the Top 20 in Regency romances.

[Cheryl Bolen]

Still working on a cover that's a bit more romantic.

[Cheryl Bolen]

A cover for this hybrid book has been a real challenge. We're in the process of uploading a new one.

[Cheryl Bolen]

Ta da! New cover up!

[Cheryl Bolen]

So, which cover do you prefer?

[Cheryl Bolen]

Been getting wonderful fan mail on this book.

[Cheryl Bolen]

Readers who love this first book in the series have been writing to ask when the second book will be available. I wish I knew. I still have to finish writing it. I have finally worked out the entire plot; so, I'm hoping it will be available by summer. My agent (for my print books) loved it, but we decided that, despite some interest in New York, I can actually make more money self publishing this series.

[UnicornEmily]

Ha ha!  That sounds funny.  My friend loves regency romances like these. 

[Cheryl Bolen]

Thanks for commenting, Em. Readers do love the humor in this book.

[Cheryl Bolen]

Readers have been asking when the second book in the series will be available. I'm shooting for May.

[Cheryl Bolen]

This is the first book I'm going to (as publisher) make a print book, using Create Space.

[Cheryl Bolen]

Please check out the new cover.

[Cheryl Bolen]

I've been telling readers who are asking about the sequel it would be released in May. Now I'm hoping for June 1.

[Cheryl Bolen]

Yep, Doesn't look like the May sequel is gonna happen. Look for it in June.
