The Frost Maiden’s Kiss is 99¢

I’m reposting this today, because I had a little glitch at Nook this month that prevented me from putting this book on sale. All is fixed now, and Malcolm’s book is 99cents at Nook through the end of the month.

For the month of June, The Frost Maiden’s Kiss, book three of the True Love Brides series of medieval Scottish romances, is discounted to just 99cents. If you haven’t read Malcolm and Catherine’s story yet, now’s the time!

The Frost Maiden's Kiss, #3 of the True Love Brides series of medieval Scottish romances by Claire Delacroix

She enchanted him with a kiss—but winning her love would demand all he possessed.

After eight years abroad, Malcolm returns to Scotland with a fortune, a companion even more hardened than he and a determination to restore his inherited holding. But when that companion falls into peril, Malcolm seizes the chance to repay an old debt, trading his own soul for that of his doomed comrade. Knowing his days are limited and determined to leave a legacy of merit, Malcolm rebuilds Ravensmuir with all haste, though he fears he will never have an heir.

A night of violence has left Catriona with no home and no faith in the honor of men. She expects little good from a visit to her lady’s brother, Laird of Ravensmuir, a known mercenary. But the handsome laird challenges her expectations with his courtesy, his allure—and his unexpected proposal. Knowing it is her sole chance to ensure her child’s future, Catriona dares to accept Malcolm’s hand. She soon realizes that this warrior fights a battle of his own and that she holds the key to his salvation. Little does she realize her past is in hot pursuit, seeking to destroy all she holds dear—including the laird who has thawed the frost of her reluctant heart.

New Editions of the Jewels of Kinfairlie Series

I’m updating the covers for all of the Ravensmuir books, and next up are the Jewels of Kinfairlie. The new editions will be available in ebook, trade paperback and jacketed hardcover from retailers in February 2027. You can order copies early from me. I was planning to launch these at Kickstarter, but will offer them through my online store instead.

Let’s have a look:

The Beauty Bride, book one of the Jewels of Kinfairlie series of medieval romances by Claire Delacroix, new 2026 cover
The Rose Red Bride, book two of the Jewels of Kinfairlie series of medieval romances by Claire Delacroix, new 2026 cover
The Snow White Bride, book three of the Jewels of Kinfairlie series of medieval romances by Claire Delacroix, new 2026 cover
The Ballad of Rosamunde, book four of the Jewels of Kinfairlie series of medieval romances by Claire Delacroix, new 2026 cover

These books are so pretty! As with the current editions of the Jewels, the Ballad of Rosamunde with be available in ebook on its own, and included in the print editions of The Snow White Bride.

As with the new editions of Blood Brothers, the Bride Quest and the Champions of St. Euphemia, we have new illustrations of the couples for each title. The illustration is on the case laminate of the hardcover, and it’s duplexed (printed on the inside) of the cover for the trade paperback.

Here’s the illustration for The Beauty Bride:

Each print book has a chapter background which coordinates with the cover. Here’s a screenshot of the one for The Beauty Bride:

And here’s The Rose Red Bride, first the new illustration, then the chapter background.

And finally for The Snow White Bride:

Once again, these books are really pretty! I’ve ordered samples to show you, and will make a video when they arrive.

I’ve set up pre-orders in my online store for the ebooks of the new editions, which will ship automatically on August 1. You can see them here:

For the print editions, you have two choices. You can order any of the books individually and get your copy signed. If you order a set of three hardcovers at once, the store will offer free shipping for US and CA addresses, and I’ll order them in July.

Or you can order a complete set of all three to be drop-shipped to you if you live in Canada or the US. This saves you some money as well as getting the books to you early. I’ll also send you a signed bookplate for each book and a bookmark featuring the new covers. The shipping is free for US and CA addresses. I’ll leave the pre-order open until July 1, then I’ll order the books and this bundle will vanish.

This is my fake Kickstarter. 🙂 The idea is that as more people order, I’ll be able to add more goodies. I’d like to do postcards with the new illustrations, but we’ll need 15 backers for that to happen. Fingers crossed!

The Dragon & the Damsel in Portuguese

The Dragon & the Damsel is now available in a Portuguese edition!

O Dragão e a Donzela is the Portuguese edition of The Dragon and The Damsel, book three of the Blood Brothers series of medieval Scottish romances by Claire Delacroix

Sendo um mercenário convencido de que cada homem deve cuidar primeiro da própria sobrevivência, Rafael aprendeu a saborear o momento e seus prazeres. Interessa-se apenas por conquista e moedas, não por promessas de futuro, até que uma donzela intrigante o desafia, provocando-o a reivindicar algo mais. Rafael não consegue resistir a Ceara, com seus cabelos cor de fogo e inteligência afiada, mas o jogo de gato e rato entre eles toma um rumo perigoso quando Ceara é levada por parentes. Rafael não consegue ficar de braços cruzados quando a sobrevivência da donzela está em risco, embora, mesmo que ela roube seu coração blindado, jamais poderá saber de sua fraqueza…

Ceara fugiu de um casamento arranjado, determinada a se casar por amor… ou não se casar. Amazona e caçadora por mérito próprio, nunca encontrou um homem digno de sua afeição, até cruzar com Rafael e seus olhos faiscantes e toque sedutor. Ela sabe que o belo guerreiro busca apenas um tipo de prêmio, mas sonha em roubar o coração dele. Ela é raptada e forçada a retornar ao noivo, mas fica extasiada ao ver que Rafael chega em seu auxílio. Quando ele a reivindica como esposa, Ceara ousa esperar por mais do que um casamento de conveniência.

Entretanto, Rafael parece interessado apenas em conquista e paixão, e o vínculo deles se transforma em uma batalha de vontades. Será que Ceara será descartada quando seu agora marido receber o prêmio que mais deseja? Será que guerreiro e donzela, duas almas feridas, conseguirão aprender a entregar a verdade em seus corações, antes que essa união seja destruída para sempre?
