Rachel is sweet, caring, hard-working, and a fantastic writer! She has helped me so much in my own writing, and I will be forever grateful :)
Here's one of her books. It was so hard to pick just one for the hop, so I picked one that means a lot to me. This book is the reason I became interested in writing Regency Romances. Because Rachel does it so well! I love the fact that her Regencies all have humor. That just makes it for me :)
So several of us are hosting a huge blog hop in Rachel's honor, giving away prizes, and basically giving Rachel a big cyber high-five :)
I'll be giving away two ebooks of my Regency Romance, "Rescued by a Duke" Just leave me a comment here, along with your email addy to be in the contest for my giveaway :)
Here's the link to the main post, so you can see who all is hosting.
And here's a list of the participants:

Humor is definitely what sells a book for me. Rachel's books make me crack up.
I agree. Humor makes the characters more likeable. But there needs to be a balance that keeps the story from becoming too cartoonish. I think Rachel manages to keep that balance. Nice blog, Ruth! Have fun on the hop.
Great blog post, Ruth. Humour is almost like an additional character, and like any character if they get out of hand..... rofl.
I'm so glad that a genuinely terrific author (& person) achieved this very high level.
wonderful to see great folks achieve superlative honors.
Lots of stops. Congrats
It takes a special kind of writer to make a book funny. Some people can be funny all the time, but in writing it falls flat. I think it's part skill & part natural talent that allows a writer to deliver scene after scene of hilarity between characters. I aspire to someday... :)
Humor is definitely an important element for me as a reader--whether it is romance or mystery or action. After all, humor is what gets us through life without any permanent wounds to our spirits. Rachel's writing is golden for me because of the humor in her stories. I find myself guffawing at some of the conversations in her romances! You go, Rachel! jdh2690@gmail.com
I agree with you about Rachel's books and humor. She manages to inject it into all of her books in some manner, no matter how serious they are! She has some great one liners! jmsava@aol.com
Agree with all the comments re Rachel and humor. She makes her books soooo funny!
I love Rachel's books and I appreciate the humor she puts into them! I happen to love regency novels and haven't read yours or her Waltzing with the Wallflower. So thank you for the great giveaway :)
