I'm not off bedrest yet to see this in the stores yet but can imagine it up close in your hands too! Donna, when I think of Historical Fiction, I think of them being different than Historical Romance or they the same? I thought maybe that Historical Fiction was the Historical books that weren't a romance, but re-telling of a historical character? If you mean Historical Fiction as your historical romance/mysteries and all those I read, I learn most of the information about the society and its rules from reading romance! I do find information and history like what they used to travel, dresses during that time, etc., at your site, and other blogs/sites. I'm glad these are historical mysteries which the characters will be the same for the following books too, right? I do love to learn all I can and I don't know whats correct from that time period unless I learn from the authors about that. And I do love to learn it too! I can get so caught up with looking something up, LOL. Thank you for that info at your site on the Georgian times. I must learn what each of the different time periods mean (Regency, Victorian, Georgian, Edwardian?, etc.). I'd love to know the differences and when they are set. I love when there is information at the site on that because I learn along with reading them! Great too you working on the 4th Awaiting book! So much to look forward to from you. I'm thrilled!
