Wilde in Love is a bestseller! In fact, it’s the only romance in the top 10 on The New York Times bestseller list! I’m so grateful to my readers. Pre-orders and purchases in the first week made this possible!
If you registered your pre-order or purchase, Wilde Denial was sent out on Tuesday, and I’m already hearing about that sexy snow scene! If the link didn’t show up in your inbox, please check your spam folder and then write team@eloisajames.com.
I’d also like to send a huge thank you to everyone who took a moment to write a review of Wilde in Love on Amazon, Goodreads, their blog or anywhere. At the moment, Amazon is showing 108 reviews and 4 1/2 stars. It makes me smile every time I look at it. I am so grateful!
Huge hugs from Eloisa

It’s been featured in both Cosmopolitan and Entertainment Weekly! As exciting as that is, your reviews matter most to Eloisa. If you could possibly take a moment to share an honest review on Amazon, that would be wonderful!

Bookish just named Wilde in Love as one of their Must Reads of Fall 2017! Here is what they had to say: “We know you shouldn’t judge books by their covers, but this one is giving us serious Colin-Firth-as-Fitzwilliam-Darcy vibes and that alone makes it a winner.” You can now read chapter one on Eloisa’s website! You can also pre-order at all online retailers.
Would you like a signed copy of one of Eloisa’s books? Here is your chance!

Just an update about A Midsummer Night’s Disgrace. If you’ve pre-ordered, your retailer has sent you an email that your order has been canceled. The publication date has been changed to February 6. We’re so sorry about this! It’s going to be a better collection for the wait: we promise that!
Here’s something fun that was just added to Eloisa’s website in honor of her upcoming new Georgian-set series: Georgian jokes! Georgians loved to laugh and bawdy jokes were among their favorites, so we compiled a few of Eloisa’s favorites.
Please accept our sincere apologies for the mistake in yesterday’s newsflash. We incorrectly stated that the Kindle version of Four Nights with the Duke was on sale. The paperback version is on sale for $4.83. We apologize for any confusion or inconvenience.

If you don’t have Four Nights with the Duke yet, the paperback version is only $4.83! We don’t know how long the markdown will last. If you have read it, we would be hugely grateful if you wrote a review and toppled the book over 400 reviews! It’s almost there!
Do you remember Edie from Once Upon a Tower and her love of the cello? Eloisa created a playlist of the music Edie loved and would have played.
