All details are on Eloisa’s Events page.

Speaking of Julia Quinn… did you know she and Eloisa put each other’s characters into their own books a few years ago? Readers loved it!

Have You Read Eloisa’s Very First Book? Want a Signed Copy?

Water Street Books is an adorable little bookstore in Williamstown, MA and right now they have signed copies of Eloisa’s very first trilogy, Potent Pleasures, Midnight Pleasures and Enchanting Pleasures. They also have signed copies of her memoir about living in Paris—Paris in Love—as well as her latest novel, Seven Minutes in Heaven. They even have a few sets of the gorgeous recipe cards Eloisa has been handing out at her appearances! Why not treat yourself — or give a wonderful present to a friend? You can call 413-458-8071 or email 0506mgr@follett.com to place an order.

The beautiful cover for Wilde in Love was just released. The only thing more beautiful is the stunning stepback! Eloisa is particularly proud because she was at the shoot, watching the models laughing with each other, and asked for a joyous shot. It’s a new look in stepbacks, and we love it so much that we made space for it on the website. We know you’re going to love it too!

As always, if you loved signed books and want a copy of Wilde in Love (the gorgeous stepback, alas, won’t appear in the e-book), you can order from Eloisa’s next-door indy bookstore, Book Culture. They’ll have signed hardcover and paperback copies, and you can specify whatever greeting you’d like Eloisa to write in the book.

Wilde in Love Has a Cover!

BEAUTIFUL! Here it is, the cover for Wilde in Love!!

Visit Eloisa’s website to see the stunning stepback and watch a video of the photo shoot. Honestly, we all love it so mu​ch. The models had great chemistry and it really shows through in the final cover. Hop over to Eloisa’s Facebook page and let her know what you think of the cover.
