Fans of Lucy Monroe will be interested in "Annabelle's Courtship", a historical romantica (really really HOT, but not quite erotica) novel recently released in trade paperback by Samhain.

Ian must marry to inherit the money he needs to help his tenant landholders. He was once betrayed by beauty, so he makes his list of requirements for a wife: Plain, moderately dowered, older, and practical. When he meets Annabelle, he decides she's prefect for him. But when she refuses his proposal, he soon realizes that list or no list, she's the one woman for him. Unfortuantely, she needs wooing and his wooing skills...well, he doesn't seem to have any!

Annabelle is neither honored nor complimented when Ian proposes...after he explains his 'list'. She's downright insulted! She's also confused. She's refused his offer, given him names of other women who meet the requirements of his 'list', and is now discouraging to the point of rudeness. So why does he heart race when he's near and why won't he just leave her alone?

A sweet and very spicy story of two people who are both sure they know what they want...only to grow up and realize they really don't. Humorous and very sexy, with a light mystery/suspense element of a wacko lord determined to have Annabelle for her dowry. Well worth your time and money!
