Maryanne Fantalis

Not even a generous dowry can tempt any man to court Kathryn, until Sir William rides into town… A “smart and subtle” retelling of The Taming of the Shrew (Katherine Longshore, author of Courted).

Kathryn’s strong will and sharp tongue have branded her a shrew in her small town. And even the temptation of her father’s wealth cannot sway the men in her direction.

Astride his warhorse, William is the pinnacle of manhood and a burr in Kathryn’s side. His impish “Kate” calls raise her hackles, yet she can’t keep from being lulled by his voice.

Though he claims he is the only man for her, she is certain he desires only her rich dowry. When he proposes marriage, she accepts as a way out of her miserable home, but expects nothing. Freed from her cruel family and judgmental town, Kathryn must decide if she will continue her battle of wills with the sometimes charming, often maddening Sir William. Does she remain the shrewish Kathryn—or find a way to be Will’s Kate?
 This delightful take on the classic romantic comedy—from the shrew’s point of view—is “rich in Shakespearean references and vivid historical details” (Katherine Longshore).

Finding Kate

Spurned by her first love, Beatrice swears off men and marriage, until Benedict walks back into her life…A charming new take on Much Ado About Nothing.

 When her rich and titled family tries to force the witty Beatrice to accept a betrothed, she holds fast to her vow. But when her heartstrings are tugged once more, two years later, she has trouble resisting the man who started it all.

 Benedict may have been poor before, but now he’s gained wealth and renown for prowess both on the battlefield and in the bedroom. The two reunite in a series of hot skirmishes, wielding words like fencing foils. But can they drop their defenses long enough to realize their love burns as bright as ever—or will their desires be doomed to the past?

 “I love the idea of taking Shakespeare's plays and rewriting them from the heroine’s point of view. Brilliant.”—Jessie Gussman, author of Anything for You
