“Eloisa James is extraordinary.” —Lisa Kleypas In the capable hands of USA Today and New York Times bestselling author Eloisa James, the fairy tales we loved as children take on vibrant—and sensuous—new life.

After years of living vicariously through the heroines in her novels, bestselling author Eloisa James takes a leap that most of us can only daydream about. She sells her house, leaves her job as a Shakespeare professor, and packs her husband and two protesting children off to Paris. Grand plans are abandoned as she falls under the spell of daily life as a Parisienne — exquisite food, long walks by the seine, reading in bed, displays of effortless chic around every corner, and being reminded of what really matters in a place where people seem to kiss all the time. Against one of the world’s most picturesque backdrops, she copes with her Italian husband’s notions of quality time; her two hilarious children, ages eleven and fifteen, as they navigate schools — not to mention puberty — in a foreign language; and her formidable mother-in-law, marina, who believes dogs should be fed prosciutto and wives should live in the kitchen. An irresistible love letter to a city that will make you want to head there, Paris in Love is also a joyful testament to the pleasures of savouring life.

Giles Renwick, Earl of Lilford, has never made a fool of himself over a woman--until he meets Lady Yasmin Régnier. Yasmin is ineligible for his attentions in every way: not as a wife, certainly not as a mistress (she is a lady!), nor even as a friend, since they vehemently dislike each other. Her gowns are too low, and her skirts are dampened to cling to admittedly lovely thighs. She loves to gossip--and giggle. She isn''t dignified, or polite, or even truly British, given that her father''s French ancestry clearly predominated. Not to mention the fact that her mother had been one of Napoleon''s mistresses, a fact she makes no effort to hide. So what--in heaven''s name--possesses him to propose? And what will he do if she says yes?

A Fool Again is the story of Genevieve, who once made a dash to Gretna Greene to marry, but was caught by her father.

Can they make their love work this time around or will Genevieve be A Fool Again?

About to make her debut in London society, Charlotte Calverstill, beneath the lavish gowns and manners of a well-brought-up young lady, yearns for a taste of freedom. Pushing propriety aside, one evening she sneaks out with a friend to attend a masked ball, and there meets a devastatingly handsome stranger who relieves her--not against her wishes--of her virtue, then vanishes. Years later, when they meet again, the rogue does not remember Charlotte. But she certainly remembers him; she has since learned not only his identity, but also a titillating piece of gossip about him that is sure to set society abuzz. The intricate web that a now-wiser Charlotte weaves to exact her due ensures justice for some and great merriment for all. Taking the Regency historical to fresh new places, with artful smoothness and irrepressible humor, Eloisa James delivers a winsome tale of first love and life''s unexpected surprises.

When his nephews, the Comte de Rocheforte and the Earl of Oakley, arrive for their annual holiday visit, they are drawn into a matchmaking party, of sorts. Among the unwitting guests are: Miss Fiona Chisholm, a beauty with a scandalous past Lady Cecily Tarleton, a lovely heiress—but she’s English Miss Catriona Burns, a lady with no name or fortune, so clearly someone made a mistake!

Er is echter één probleem. Quill wordt al jaren geplaagd door vreselijke migraine aanvallen, veroorzaakt door schommelbewegingen. Gabrielle denkt een oplossing gevonden te hebben voor Quill’s mysterieuze aandoening. Maar deze remedie kan hem helen... of doden. ‘De mantel der liefde’ is het derde en laatste boek in de ‘Eindeloos genot’ trilogie van Eloisa James. Een romantisch en spannend verhaal met een verrassende wending. Eloisa James is het pseudoniem van de Amerikaanse schrijfster Mary Bly. De schrijfster maakte haar debuut in 1999 met ''Geur van de nacht'', het eerste deel uit de ''Eindeloos genot-trilogie''. Haar romantische verhalen spelen zich voornamelijk af in de Georgische periode (1740-1837). James haalt haar inspiratie voornamelijk uit het werk van Shakespeare en poëzie uit de zestiende eeuw.
