Two New Releases From Kat Valentine

Return to Marienstadt, everyone’s favorite hometown!

Dear Readers,
It’s been too long since I sent a newsletter but it has been a busy winter and I think you will enjoy what I have to tell you. First, I need to make an apology for the Winter Warmth Contest. Due to an unforeseen software glitch, the contest never began. However, even though winter is nearly over, and it has been a very mild winter here in New England, the contest will happen. And the good thing is, I’ve added to the prizes! Three new cowls in stunning colors will be offered when I get the software issues worked out. Believe me, even if you have to wait until next year, you’ll love wearing these hats and cowls!
And, there are two new releases in the very popular Marienstadt Stories series. The first one is a digital Omnibus edition of The Bucktail Cap in the Trunk: More Secrets of Marienstadt. It contains all 13 stories originally released in three volumes and you save 33% over buying them separately. In these stories you will revisit the Pennsylvania Dutch town of Marienstadt and learn more about its residents. Included are The Memory Quilt of Lacey Mulhearn, about one of the town’s first Irish settlers and what happened when he decided to take a wife. In the title story, The Bucktail Cap in the Trunk, we meet the four Fritz brothers who fought in the Civil War in the 42nd Pennsylvania Regiment, the famous Bucktails.
The fourth book in the series is also available in digital or paperback. This sequel to The Christmas Daughter continues the story of the Wilde family. In The Legend, Boone’s brother Kit returns to Marienstadt to ask for his brother’s help in tracking down a fabulous Friesian stallion taken from Kit’s stables. Along the way they encounter Durga’s Dogs, a motorcycle club committed to rescuing fight dogs. Bestselling author Kiana Davenport calls The Legend “a riveting and haunting story.”
I hope all of you are getting lots of reading done and I hope you’ll let me know what you think of these stories. It’s only a few weeks until Spring!
Thanks for reading,
Kathleen
P.S. Are you looking ahead to summer reading? Marienstadt isn’t the only place to visit! May I suggest a trip to Boston’s Beacon Hill where mystery abounds. The Beacon Hill Chronicles series now has four volumes available in digital or paperback. Or, if a mysterious island filled with art, romance and rumors of madness and murder, why not try Depraved Heart: A Novel. There’s plenty of mystery for all!
