Spend Valentine's Day in Regency London with The Shamrock & The Rose!
My new short story for Valentine's Day (and St. Patrick's Day!) is here!
Set in London in 1818, it's the story of Rose Collingwood, daughter of a baron, who wanted to play Portia in The Merchant of Venice. To accept the part at the Theatre-Royal at Haymarket, the very proper young lady assumes the disguise of Miss Lily Underwood, the actress. Who knew all of London would soon be at her feet sending her love notes? One such Valentine goes awry only to be found by the dashing Irish barrister, Morgan O'Connell. Though he would have seduced the actress, Morgan must court the lady. Given three choices much like Portia's suitors, can she resist the handsome Irish rogue?

DeleteJust finished reading this and, like Amanda said above, don't miss it! I really admire a character who tries to model herself on Shakespeare's Portia ;)
