THE OFFICIAL ESSEX SISTERS COMPANION GUIDE
Eloisa James & Jody Gayle
Releasing May 24th, 2016
Avon Impulse
This is a
book no Eloisa James fan should miss! Eloisa revisits the scintillating world
of the Essex Sisters with "A Midsummer Night's Disgrace," a new story
featuring a young lady, Cece, who would rather ruin her own reputation than
endure further speculation about whether her children will be
"silly," like her brother, Billy. Happily for fans of Pleasure for
Pleasure, Cece's best friend is Josie, Countess of Mayne!
Just as exciting, the Companion
includes not only Eloisa's original notes about each book and her
"extra" chapters, but a 170 page alternate ending to Kiss Me,
Annabel. Eloisa discarded this shockingly different plot after writing one
draft, and the published novel went in an entirely new direction. Make up your
own mind about which is better-Eloisa's original, or the final book!
Super fan Jody Gayle's engaging
guide includes essays about fascinating historical details, including period
fashion designs. Explore the world of horse racing and tour the London theater
scene. Delve into the rich history and deep literary tradition that makes
Eloisa one of the top writers of historical romance.
The Companion also gives you a sneak
peek at Eloisa's newest full-length novella, "A Gentleman Never
Tells"-which springs from the world of the Essex Sisters! What will happen
when one of the men who ruined an heiress' debut by labeling her a "Wooly
Breeder" (and Josie Essex a "Scottish Sausage") decides that
it's time to make amends?
ELOISA JAMES is a New
York Times best-selling author and professor of English literature who lives
with her family in New York, but who can sometimes be found in Paris or Italy.
She is the mother of two and, in a particularly delicious irony for a romance
writer, is married to a genuine Italian knight. Visit Eloisa at
www.eloisajames.com or on Facebook or Twitter.
JODY
GAYLE, best-selling author and
researcher, likens her work to that of a literary archeologist rather than a
traditional author. She is dedicated to unearthing publications of the past,
and sharing these long-forgotten books … the jewels and riches of the written
word. She has uncovered tens of thousands of old publications from the eighteenth
and nineteenth centuries and wants to bring them to life, and send her readers
traveling back in time.
