Connie Brockway Podcast and Giveaway (Contest Now Closed)

I have this book up top of my wishlist, sooooooo happy Connie's returned to a historical, several of her books are on my alltime favorite book list. I wouldn't even mind an arc to read it sooner. Connie, do you have plans to do more historicals, I hope?

Hi Pam! Thank you. Yes, I'm working on a second historical right ow (I mean it. RIGHT now.) It's a regency set novel--which should be loads of fun as I haven't done a classic regency for years--entitled THE GOLDEN SEASON.

I'm really excited (and yes, a little nervous) about SO ENCHANTING's upcoming release. I've posted an excerpt over on my website and starting in January, for four consecutive weeks, I'll be including linked excerpts from the book in my newsletter. So, if you're interested, think about going over and checking it out.

Once more, thank you!

Connie

It's a real shame that cat can't be bribed long distance.

Okay, I had to jump in and say just how much I enjoyed the interview, even though I'm not eligible for the free book...sigh. Thanks so much for doing this! I was particularly interested in Ms. Brockway's comments about writing dark romances, in that she said she starts with something dark and makes it darker, and also asks the question, "What sins are unforgiveable?" My all time time favorite historical romance is As You Desire. I keep hoping against hope that someday, we'll have another romance by Ms. Brockway set in Egypt.

While I've enjoyed your contemporary novels, I'm glad to see you're releasing a historical romance. Will you now be alternating genres or going back to historicals?

I loved the Rose Hunters (and Hot Dish, too) and I am so looking forward to this one!

I would love to win the book!!!! Rufus has failed me so many times before... It's your time buddy!

Off to hear the podcast!

I was so happy to hear you've got a new historical coming out, and now to hear that you will be writing more? Be still my heart! You've written some of my all time favorite romances and I am so looking forward to more from you.

Also off to hear the podcast....

How wonderful! I love reading Connie Brockway - she's a fantastic author and I would love to win this book!

Thanks so much, you guys. I really enjoyed writing SO ENCHANTING-- the verbal battle between Grey and Fanny is some of my all time favorite. I kept envisioning Clark Gable and Carol Lombard in IT HAPPENED ONE NIGHT (I'm a huge fan of old movies--especially romantic comedy.)

I will be going back and forth between historical romance and contemporary fiction. I think it keeps my imagination jumping to play on so many fields.

Best,

Connie

My ears perk right up at the mention of Connie Brockway + historical and, especially, "verbal battle". Rufus, please consider practicing your amazing dexterousness in the general direction of my name...

I'm so glad that she is coming out with a new historical. Please enter me in the drawing.

Brockway rules! Can't wait for the book.

Yeah! I am so excited that Ms. Brockway is coming back to historicals! She has written so many really excellent books and given me so much enjoyment. My favorites are "As You Desire", "All Through The Night", "My Dearest Enemy", "A Dangerous Man" and both "Bridal" books. LOL! I really enjoyed the interview so thanks Sandy and thanks to you Mrs. Brockway.

Great interview in the podcast. I'm looking forward to So Enchanting -- just like everyone else! I thoroughly enjoyed the excerpt on your website!

I know that I can't win, but I just wanted to say that I enjoyed the interview. I love it when authors share insights into their own books as well as into the industry. Heather B.

Kathy, I have the same favorites as you. I'm so glad to hear you'll be alternating the genres, Connie, as so many of your historicals are up top of my alltime favorites list. On your newsletter, of course, so I'll be watching for those excerpts.

I am so excited to see Connie Brockway back in the historical genre. She's written some of my favorite books.

I'm looking forward to reading this book when it comes out. I love old romantic comedies too especially all that verbal sparring. My favorite is His Girl Friday. The cover of the book is fab, you don't usually see a lot of orange covers.

I'm so excited for this! "As You Desire" is one of my favorite books of all time... I can't wait to read So Enchanting!!

Hi Connie, I'm so happy that we can expect more historicals and contemporaries in the future.

I love Connie Brockway stories, especially the historicals, so the new upcoming one is a real treat. Thanks!

I love Connie Brockway; As you Desire is also one of my all time favorites. Pick me Rufus!

I really enjoy reading Conne's books and have added this one to my TBR list.

I have this book on my wish list. I would love to read. I love a good historical. It is my favorite type of read. Bring on those historicals.

Yay, another historical romance to put on my TBR list. Historicals are one of my favorite genres.

I'm so happy that Connie Brockway has written another historical romance. I love all her books and cannot wait for So Enchanting to be released.

Connie,

I am looking forward to your book. And of course would love to win. However i think I last won something in like 1985 so I am not holding my breath<g>. I will definitely be in the book store on the release date if I don't win.

Since you are doing historicals again, any chance for (I hate this, but I can't remember his name-He was a secondary character that didn't get the girl, and he married a promiscuous young girl, who stated she was pregnant, and it could be his baby. He admired her because at least she didn't claim that she knew it was his baby) story?

I would love a chance to receive an advance copy of Connie's new historical. As You Desire is still one of my all time favorite romances, even after all these years.

I'm also happy that she has returned to historicals.

So excited for this book! All Through the Night is not only one of my all time favorite books, and at the top of my favorite historical romance list. Can't wait for January - or you know maybe December if I can win!

i'm so excited ms. brockway is returning to historial romances...can't wait to read this book when it comes out!

I would love a chance to receive an advance copy of Connie's new historical. I can't wait to read more and I'm glad that she's returning to historicals.

Whoa; an advance copy of Brockway's newest book! I can't wait!

How nice to hear you talk about romance, Connie. You have been one of my favorite writers since I started reading romances about ten years ago. I loved your historicals and have missed them, but your contemporaries have been great, too.You are astonishing in that you do both so well. Not that I read many contemporaries - maybe one of every twelve books. "Hot Dish" had me rolling on the floor with unrestrained laughter. I have all your books and will be buying "So Enchanting" on its first day. I'll probably buy it at Walmart, unless they don't have it. Then, I'll have to drive the fifty miles roundtrip to Barnes&Noble in Daytona Beach - doubling the cost of the book. I really miss living in the northern Detroit suburbs where I had about ten bookstores within a half-hour's drive. :-) I may go out searching for Laura Kinsale's book. I've never read that one and I think it's been reissued. Thanks for the tip and for writing so many wonderful books.

It's great news that Connie Brockway has a new historical coming out. Thank you for the chance to win one.

Wow! Thank you, all! And Leigh YES, there is a GOOD chance Giles Strand will be getting his own book soon. (which in publishing time means within the next two years)

I too hope Giles gets his own story and his own heroine. He lost not only Anne in "All Through the Night" but came in second in a previous book as well. I found him intriguing and am happy to hear the long dark night of his soul may soon be over (the scene in ATTN when he realizes the difference between what Anne and Jack have and what he has -- or rather doesn't -- is quite heartbreaking).

As for Rufus, would it help if I sent over Catullus, my own bruiser of a Maine coon cat, to give him a little pep talk?
