WHY ARE THESE BOOKS DIFFERENT?
Novellas
are longer than short stories and shorter than short novels. Novellas
are routinely published in collections termed anthologies containing either
the collected works of one author, or, more frequently, the works
of several authors dealing with a specific theme.
The four novellas Stephanie has had published thus far are contained in
anthologies of the latter sort, together with the works of other romance
authors on the designated theme.
For the latest anthology, HERO, COME BACK, containing Stephanie's Lost
& Found, the theme was secondary male characters from earlier
books finding their own ladies.
For the anthology SECRETS OF A PERFECT NIGHT, containing Stephanie's Scandalous
Lord Dere, the theme was New Year's Eve balls.
For the anthology SCOTTISH BRIDES, containing Stephanie's Rose In Bloom,
the theme revolves about Scotland, summer romances and, of course, June
weddings.
For the anthology ROUGH AROUND THE EDGES, containing Stephanie's Melting
Ice , the theme was for the hero to be a renegade of sorts, a "bad
boy", a black sheep, a prodigal lover. ROUGH AROUND THE EDGES is
no longer in print, however the novella Melting Ice appears in
the anthology SCANDALOUS BRIDES.
"I've always relished the challenge of novellas -- as a novelist
whose "comfort zone" lies at greater than 125,000 words, to
tell an engaging, satisfying romance in 25,000 words is truly a challenge,
and keeps me on my writing toes." --- Stephanie
