Blogging at Borders True Romance
Lady Jane’s “Welcome to the Winter Holidays” Salon was a rollicking good time, indeed. Thanks to our guests Lauren Willig and Jacquie D’Alessandro for regaling us with their charming holiday releases. As both a Salon co-founder and guest, I want to send out my special thanks to our terrific attendees. Many of you show up month after month, as well as post the event on Facebook and Twitter. Without your support and immense goodness, there would be no Salon.
For a recap of the night, plus video, visit my author blog at HopeTarr.com.
But, as they say, there’s more…
Please join me on Monday, December 13th as I blog at Borders True Romance with host, Sue Grimshaw. The topic will be Lady Jane, of course. Yes, Jane…pardon me, Her Ladyship, will turn two on February and we on the Lady Jane Team have grand plans for the February 7th Birthday Blitz Salon. Post a comment on Monday–a simple birthday well wish will do–and be entered to win a signed copy of my winter holiday anthology, A Harlequin Christmas Carol.
Wishing you a holiday season filled with mistletoe moments,
Hope Tarr
Co-Founder, Lady Jane’s Salon
December Lady Jane’s Salon: Welcome to the Winter Holidays
Okay, be honest, is Jack Frost nipping at your nose? Are you hearing sleigh bells ringing in your ears?
Hopefully not.
Still, the winter holidays are indeed upon us, and we at Lady Jane’s Salon are looking forward to celebrating in romantic literary style.
The December Salon tosses out the tinsel with three historical romance authors reading from m/our holiday releases. Getting the party started, first-time Salon guest Jacquie D’Alessandro and I will read from our Dickens’ inspired romance anthology, A Harlequin Christmas Carol. Jacquie’s delightful Shakespeare-inspired Today’s Longing will have you rolling in the aisles before the first eggnog is poured.

Next, I’ll read from my novella, Tomorrow’s Destiny, an even more paranormal re-telling of Dickens’ Christmas Yet To Come. Prickly, scotch swilling Covent Garden bookshop proprietress, Fiona MacPherson faces turning thirty and losing her beloved bookshop, both by the New Year. Unearthly pale and sun blind, Tobias Templeton doesn’t care a whit about the shop, but there’s one book in particular he’s convinced holds the cure for his “curse.” Can a nocturnal visit from Fiona’s “Angel of Christmas Future” turn the tide toward uniting Fiona with her One True Love, her soul’s mate, before it’s too late?
Returning to the Salon is our dear friend, Lauren Willig. Lauren will read from her latest release in the Pink Carnation series,The Mischief of the Mistletoe.
Best-selling author, Jacquie D'Alessandro.
The December Salon convenes on Monday, December 6th from 7-9PM at Madame X. Admission is $5 or one gently used romance novel. Net proceeds support an end-of-year donation to a NYC based women’s charity. Cash bar. Raffle. Author books will be available for sale on site.
It’s beginning to feel a lot like Christmas…
