Congratulations to Bronwyn Stuart, who has just accepted a contract with Carina Press for her second regency novel, Behind the Courtesan, due for publication early in 2013. Scandal's Mistress is out next month, also from Carina!
Here's the blurb:
Behind the Courtesan
When Sophia Martin returns to the village she once fled, she knows it won't be all sunshine and happy reunions but she also didn't expect the name calling and insults to come from her childhood friend. Blake Vale just can't accept the decisions she made, the courtesan's life she leads, or the fact he once loved a girl who no longer recognizes her true self. Plain old Sophie Martin has to be inside this hardened woman somewhere and he's determined to bring her out and make her see she doesn't need rich dukes to be happy and that the future has nothing to do with her past.

Eleni Konstantine has been a busy lady! Not only is she featured in the RWA Blog's Conference Spotlight recently, but she's also been nominated for the Lynne Wilding Award.
Don't know the award? This, from the RWA blog:
Established in 1996, this award’s intention is to recognise and honour an individual’s outstanding contribution to RWA. Named in honour of our first President, Lynne was the driving force behind this award. She understood the importance committed individuals can make to the lifeblood of an organisation.
Big congrats, Eleni, and best of luck! Very much deserved.
