Song for a Lady

Can a Regency-era Cinderella determine her own fate?

Unfairly blamed for her mother’s sins, Lady Deborah Martin can’t seem to please her father. Then, in standing up for herself, she offends another important man in her life, handsome Lord Foxborough. Treated as little more than a servant, this Regency-era Cinderella plans to make a life on the stage, and if the men disapprove, they’d best watch out!

This is a lighthearted tale in the traditional Regency style of Jane Austen and Georgette Heyer—no sex, but plenty of romantic complications and a happy ending.

A love for the books of Jane Austen drew Jacqueline Diamond to the world of the Regency-era romance, and her half-dozen novels in the genre have delighted readers for nearly thirty years. Jackie has gone on to sell some 90 novels ranging from mysteries and suspense to paranormal romances and romantic comedies. A former Associated Press reporter in Los Angeles, Jackie has received a career achievement award from Romantic Times magazine and two finalist placements for the RITA Award.

Ms. Diamond is one of the most consistently enjoyable Regency authors around.
-- Melinda Helfer, Romantic Times, February 1985

“Clear and crisp … Elevated above the ordinary by the inclusion of some delightful dialogue and some very funny scenes.”
--Library Journal

The genre is well served in author Diamond’s second novel, the first being Lady in Disguise.

I was thrilled to find another author, like Candice Hern, writing in the great tradition of the Heyer Regency.
