Welcome to Sweet Regencies, Cozy Mysteries and Spooky Paranormals...

Greetings ~   I'm Amy Corwin, the author of contemporary paranormals and Regency historicals with a touch of suspense and mystery.  I've been fortunate to have several books accepted by my publishers and 2010 will be a banner year for releases.

The Bricklayer's Helper

The Bricklayer's Helper is Sarah's story. After her family perishes in a suspicious fire, Sarah hides her identity by working as a bricklayer's helper. But her disguise can't keep her safe when someone discovers she survived the flames. Alone and terrified, Sarah pins all her hopes on William Trenchard, the only available inquiry agent with Second Sons. William, however, seems far too handsome to have the intelligence necessary to solve the mystery, and Sarah fears that involving him may be her final~and fatal~mistake.

The pair are in for a wild ride as they try to solve a decade-old mystery of murder and deceit in Regency England.

Vampire Protector

My first paranormal,  Vampire Protector is due out in Nov 12, 2010. The dark cover totally captures the ominous feel.  This book is near-and-dear to my heart as it deals with tragedy, death, and building a new life despite it all.

Unaware of her family's deepest secrets, Gwen is nonetheless haunted by the past. And her lack of memory turns deadly when she receives a frightening note. So she turns to her neighbor, John Wright for help. She soon discovers John is no ordinary man, he's her VAMPIRE PROTECTOR, sworn to watch over her family for centuries.  He's determined to help her survive the ancient evil that threatens vampire and humans, alike, and discover the secret guarded by Gwen's family for over two hundred years.

And while John would die to keep Gwen alive, neither is prepared for the attraction burning through their hearts. An attraction that only poses an even deadlier question: will they survive each other?

Looking for a gift? How about a cookbook?

Last summer, I transcribed my grandmother's handwritten cookbook--filled with recipes from the Great Depression through the early 1960's. There are close to 200 recipes, including dozens of cakes, pies, and cookies.  It may be just the thing to give as a gift, or buy it for yourself to make something special when you're hosting a party. Or just need something to cheer yourself up.  It's called The Rowley Cookbook--just click on the title or the book cover if you need a gift for someone who has everything!


And The Rowley Cookbook is now available from Amazon.com.

Check out the Janes of Romance website, it's absolutely gorgeous. I'll have a few book covers and an author page hosted there, and I'm really looking forward to seeing them expand. They cater to the sweeter side of romance, which has always been where my heart lies.

Fallen Angel reviewed I Bid One American and gave it the nicest review and a full Five Angels!

Finally, I had an absolutely wonderful time meeting readers and schmoozing with other historical romance writers at the Regency Tea in Cary, NC. I can't thank the folks enough who set it up.
