News & Updates

All of What’s New in Eloisa’s World!

For the most up-to-date info about the newest book, what’s coming soon, and more, this page has it all.

Do You Want to Write Historical Romance?

Everything the aspiring historical romance writer needs is in Eloisa’s Essex Sisters Companion Guide for only $1.99: Eloisa chronicles the publishing process from conception to publication including editing, copyediting, marketing, and covers. The historical essays about clothing, newspapers, and the Regency world at large are invaluable tools for writing your own historical! You’ll have an honest glimpse into the complete publishing process—including the 150 page ending that her editor at the time deemed too dark for publication.

New Summer Reads From Eloisa!

A Gentleman Never Tells,” a brand new novella, is available in eBook now! Make sure to order so that you have one of Eloisa’s giddiest, sexiest novellas ever. All About Romance called it “witty and delightful” and gave it Desert Island Keeper status!

Want another short, fun read? There’s a brand new novella, “A Midsummer Night’s Disgrace” in her Essex Sisters Companion. That’s not to mention all the fun fashion facts from the time.

Reader favorites Josie and Mayne show up in both novellas! And at only $0.99 and $1.99 respectively, they’re a fantastic bargain (and frankly, they won’t stay that way. Avon will raise the price of Gentleman within a few weeks of pub date).

Do You Love It or Hate It?

Eloisa’s alternate ending to Kiss Me, Annabel is throwing fans of the Essex Sisters into a tizzy! Some readers love the alternate ending—“Finally Annabel as she was intended”—but others think it’s way too dark! Where will you fall? Get your copy of the Companion now and read the alternate ending as well as a brand new novella, published nowhere else!

The Essex Sisters Companion Guide is Available Now!

Don’t miss Eloisa’s new novella, “A Midsummer Night’s Disgrace,” a fresh, sexy story about a young lady who rebels against convention, dresses as she likes—and flirts with a gorgeous musician!

But the Companion has much more than the novella inside. Do you love history? You’ll find a wealth of historical knowledge on fashion, horses and the theatre! Plus you’ll love reading Eloisa’s original notes as she was writing the Essex Series, along with deleted scenes and extra chapters. Most exciting of all—a 100 page alternate ending to Kiss Me, Annabel!

For now, the Companion is only available digitally for just $1.99. You can order from Kindle, Nook, Kobo, iBooks.
