There's no Celestial bed in "Kathryn", that was in the 1700s.

[quote=""Leyland""]I'm well past that (altough still in the Boleyn era) and am now finding out much more about the de Gaels' mysterious tie to this ill-gotten land grant/independent duchy. I would almost call this novel a rollicking blend of paranormal historical fantasy at this point. It sure ain't what I was expecting!! But I am enjoying it - with much tongue-in-cheek.

btw - no Celestial bed yet, but am waiting for it, Misfit

I loved Kathryn, but it has to be taken with a big grain of salt. I loved the twist at the end, and I did love having a romance where the characters grew older and fell in and out of love with the other.

PS, the Celestial Bed is in This Other Eden by Marilyn Harris. Sorry to have misled you...

I haven't read KITCOTSQs, but your description doesn't surprise me. As Jean Brooks-Janowick this author was writing sexy paranormal fantasy way back in the '80s, before it became fashionable

I stll have a copy of Winter Lord - "set in a Kingdom of Desire and Damnation"..

Have a long weekend and working off some of the kindle freebies, which have been mostly dogs until the current one, Marry Me by Jo Goodman. I rather enjoying it a lot, and I do like a romance that doesn't dumb me or the storyline down.
