Historical Romance Network has a gift for you: our first excerpt booklet! Seventeen HRN members have included excerpts of First Meet scenes from their historical romances. They range from Viking era to the American West, and include newer authors and New York Times & USA Today bestsellers. Download the FREE booklet in your preferred format (mobi or epub), and find some new books to love! A complete list of participating authors and time periods below.

Don't have an e-reader? No problem! You can download Adobe Digital Edition to your desktop computer and use the epub version or download the Amazon Kindle App to your desktop and use the mobi version.

This booklet is the first of what we hope to be many such projects hosted by the Historical Romance Network, an informal group of over two hundred historical romance authors looking to understand what romance readers want, and expand the historical romance market.

 Please join the conversation at Historical Romance Network's Facebook, Twitter and Tumbr pages!
