3 Books by Joyce Harmon
Requirements: EPUB Reader
Overview: Joyce Harmon has been from one side of the galaxy to the other (slight exaggeration) and seen a lot of strange stuff (very true). Since retiring from the Navy, she has worked as a winery tour guide, a journalist for a local newspaper, selling collectibles on eBay, and making candles – and always, always, a writer. She shares her rural Virginia home with two haughty and indolent cats and one clever, busy dog, and is haunted by a noisy crowd of characters, all clamoring to be written down and set loose into the world. She accommodates them as quickly as she can. She is the author of the Passatonnack Winery mysteries, Died On The Vine and Bidding On Death. A Feather To Fly With is her first Regency romance, and she is currently working on a sequel.
Genre: Historical Romance
The World’s a Stage All the world’s a stage for Peter Barton, a wandering actor now posing as a gentleman in Regency high society. But his carefree existence is jeopardized when a matchmaking mama tries to snare him for her dowdy daughter. To avoid entanglement and exposure, Peter needs a mistress – or at least someone willing to play the part.
The stage is no place for a lady, but when proper young lady Amy Greenlow is left destitute with a young sister to support, she dares to reinvent herself as the actress “Amadora” and takes the London stage by storm. But all Society knows that actresses are women of no virtue, and a ruthless Marquis is determined to make Amadora his latest mistress and won’t take no for an answer. To discourage his advances, Amy agrees to play another part, that of Peter Barton’s mistress.
For Peter and Amy, the public performance of their pretend affair is the role of a lifetime. Falling in love was never part of the plan.
(Author’s note: The World’s A Stage is set in the same universe as A Feather To Fly With, and Peter Barton was a secondary character in that earlier work. But this novel is a stand-alone story, and can be enjoyed on its own without having read Feather. This novel is a traditional Regency, and contains no sex scenes.)
A Feather To Fly With In Regency England, young ladies make their fortune by marrying it. But Cleo Cooper has come to London with a different idea – she’s going to make her fortune by stealing it. Raised abroad by unconventional parents, Cleo has no use for the rules and strictures of the ton. She’ll pretend to fit in, but she has a secret scheme.
Arthur Ramsey, Duke of Winton, is in the market for a wife. He imagines a sweet, conformable young lady who will gracefully fill the role of Duchess, secure the succession with an heir, and not interfere with his scientific pursuits. That’s what he’s looking for – but what he finds is Cleo.
(Author’s Note: A Feather To Fly With is a traditional Regency. If it were a movie, it would be rated PG, or even G.)
Regency Road Trip Two old friends join forces in a quest to find a lost heir – but what they discover surprises them both.
After a long absence and a premature declaration of death, Colonel Lord Salford returns from the dead to find his estate in ruins, thanks to his cousin and presumptive heir, a gambler and a scoundrel. In order to protect his estate from future ruin by his corrupt cousin (and avoid a marriage of convenience), the Earl enlists the aid of his old friend, retired governess Eliza Merryhew, in a quest to locate a missing heir.
Miss Merryhew’s former pupil set her up for life, and never has she been more comfortable….or more bored. Years of travel, while often precarious and even dangerous, gave her a taste for adventure, and now she is restless with the sedate gentility of her daily routine. So she is eager to join her old friend Lord Salford on his mission.
To keep their search from public notice, they travel incognito — Miss Merryhew as a Baron’s widow, and the Earl as her devoted manservant Gervase.
Together these two will prove you’re never too old for adventure, or for romance.
(This novella follows the adventure of secondary characters introduced in my first Regency romance, A Feather To Fly With, and the action in this story takes place between the final chapter and the epilog of that previous work.)
