Napoleon’s Mirage by Michelle Cameron reunites the reader with the trio of main
characters who inhabited the wonderful tale of historical fiction told in her previous novel,
Beyond the Ghetto Gates. We return to Ancona, Italy’s center of ketubah artistry and its beautiful
decorative Jewish marriage contracts. There, Mirelle is reeling from society’s condemnation and is about to lose the family business. Fighting with the Grand Armée in Egypt, Daniel is struggling with his loyalty to the increasingly despotic Napoleon Bonaparte and Christophe is striving to rise above his inner demons and prove himself a man. Napoleon’s ill-fated assault on Egypt and Syria, is a perfect backdrop for three characters coming of age and grappling with disillusionment and loss of hope. Highly recommended.

Should Have Told You Sooner is an emotionally layered story of lost chances, found courage, and the complicated path between the two. Jane Ward gives us Noel, a woman whose past mistakes aren’t just baggage—they’re buried truths, the kind that shape your whole life if left unspoken.
Noel isn’t a heroine who gets everything right, and that’s exactly what makes her unforgettable. As she navigates the slow unraveling of secrets and the tentative pull of a long-lost love, her work in the art museum world becomes the perfect metaphor: recapturing what’s been forgotten, holding on to what’s still worth saving.
The narrative moves effortlessly between past and present in a way that feels both grounded and immediate. It’s a portrait of a woman learning that the stories we tell (and the ones we don’t) can shape not just who we were, but who we still might become.

Quietly powerful and beautifully told. On preorder for a February release.

I’m spending August in Sweden writing the sequel to 𝘉𝘶𝘵𝘵𝘦𝘳𝘧𝘭𝘺 𝘎𝘢𝘮𝘦𝘴 (yes, the one with the scandalous royal affair and the secret that could shatter a crown). Between writing sessions in a historic apartment and day trips to Jacquette’s real-life haunts, I made time to sample this retro Scandinavian delight. Spoiler: it’s weird and wonderful.⁣

Only a few days until my trip to Sweden, and a long awaited reunion with @annalenaberg_forfattare . She’s the expert and noted biographer of #Jacquette, heroine of my upcoming novel, #butterflygames . We are traveling together to the remarkable Swedish castle, @skoklostersslott to see the @shondaland exhibit of @queencharlotenetflix swag. Warming up for #bridgerton Season 4 and re-reading the source, @juliaquinnauthor ! 🦋🦋

Happy Publication Day to @lorettarothschild. Finding Grace is a novel for the twenty-first century--inventive, fast paced, "high concept." It blends genres, with a love story and loads of domestic psychological suspense. Loved it! #FindingGraceNovel

Read The Vow. You’ll meet Angelica Kauffman, a pioneer in history painting. She crossed paths with the titans of art and society in late 18th century London and Rome. I loved this book, and know you will, too. #historicalfiction #bookstagram
