Welcome to Regency Tales with a Deadly Twist...

Greetings ~   I'm Amy Corwin, the author of several historicals set in the Regency period with a touch of suspense and mystery. 

Outrageous Behavior has a cover!  Sometime soon, my latest effort, a Regency romantic short story from The Wild Rose Press, will be released.  My lovely editor has present me with the cutest cover--and yes, fishing does play a strangely pivotal role :-).  In fact, I believe there are no ills that a nice fishing trip cannot solve.  The story is fun, short, sweet and inexpensive, so I'm hoping folks will enjoy it.  I'll definitely let you know when it is available.

Christmas Mishaps has been contracted by Cerridwen Press for their Christmas Anthology and edits will start in October!  Just as soon as I get a cover and the release date, I'll be sure to let you know.

I Bid One American is available as an e-book!  It will also be released as a paperback on Nov 7, 2008.  I am so excited because the e-book can be downloaded from a number of sites in a few weeks, but right now, you can get it "hot off the Internet" from: The Wild Rose Press.

For folks who are new to e-books, I've added a page with a little more information about e-book readers and how to read my books on generally available readers like Amazon's Kindle and Sony's e-book Reader.  Click here to read more about moving your e-books onto your reader device.

 Smuggled Rose is also available from Cerridwen Press, both as an e-book and paperback.  The paperback is also available from Amazon.com.

I'm also starting a quarterly newsletter called Regency Rose. The newsletter will contain articles about the Regency and other fun things related to my books and writing.  You may subscribe by clicking on the following link: Subscribe to the Regency Rose newsletter.

 I BID ONE AMERICAN is an engaging tale that is sure to please many readers as it did me.  Make sure it’s on your summer reading list!  --Amy Cunningham for Romance Reviews Today

Long and Short Reviews gave it 5 books!  This was a great read and Ms. Corwin has written an outstanding novel.   You can read the entire review in their blog at:  http://longandshortreviews.blogspot.com

The Romance Studio gave I BID ONE AMERICAN  4.5 hearts and you can read the entire review on their website: TRS I Bid One American Review   Overall rating: The plot is as convoluted and entertaining as the Archer family. I really loved this tale, the mystery alone would have kept me hooked, but I got a great Regency as a bonus. ---The Romance Studio


SMUGGLED ROSE is my first Regency.  The manuscript received a number of awards from writer's contests and has since received glowing reviews.   Hopefully, you will also find it to be an intriguing read.

What the critics are saying about SMUGGLED ROSE--

The Romantic Times gave Smuggled Rose 4 stars in the June 2008 issue of their magazine, The Romantic Times Book Reviews.  Here are a few lines from their review:

Corwin's wonderful story is much like the traditional Regencies that readers sorely miss.  The hero and heroine are a fine match, and the secondary characters add a lot to the story.  The ending is exciting and quite nicely done...

The Romance Studio gave Smuggled Rose  4.5 hearts and you can read the entire review on their website: TRS Smuggled Rose Review

Overall rating: Here is what The Romance Studio had to say about Smuggled Rose...

Ms. Amy Corwin has done a delightful job of describing her characters--both the major ones and the family members and other acquaintances. These characters, while attracted to each other, had personal baggage which Ms. Corwin handled well and in such a manner that it seemed as if I was part of the plot. This first novel by Ms. Corwin revealed her abilities to grip the reader’s attention and blend several sub-plots into the main love story and still manage to make it easy to follow. The ending might be predictable; however, getting there was quite a surprise!

I highly recommend anyone who loves historical romance read this book; you will definitely not be disappointed. Great first work by the author! She is definitely one to watch for!

---The Romance Studio

Romance Reviews Today also gave Smuggled Rose an excellent review (thank you so much!) and you can read the entire text at: Smuggled Rose Review.  Here is the summary...

With precise attention to not only societal rules but also characterization, Amy Corwin has authored a riveting traditional Regency romance that packs a lot of punch.  Rich with the romanticism of the era that appeals to this reader, SMUGGLED ROSE is a sumptuous tale of love and learning to trust.  In the past several months, I have come to enjoy the traditional Regencies that Cerridwen Press is intent on bringing back, and I can only say that this is the perfect example of a sorely missed genre.

Add SMUGGLED ROSE to your collection as soon as possible.
