  ~E-book Sale~ ♥ FREE to 99¢ ♥
  Just a few book related updates for you, my lovely readers. ☺
  First and foremost, Intrigue received a glowing, beautiful, 4½-star review from InD'tale Magazine. It was completely unexpected, and so thrilling! (I always expect the worst. LOL)
  "Writing that shouts "well above average" should never be missed, and Ms. Grant certainly has attained a lofty position with this story!" ~InD'tale Magazine
  To celebrate, I've put Intrigue on sale. The price change hasn't fed through to all the stores yet, but at the time of this post, it's reduced at Amazon (US & UK), Apple, B&N, Smashwords, and Kobo. It will soon follow to Sony and Diesel.
  Second, Heartless has been on sale for 99¢ since I revealed the cover for my upcoming release, Forgotten, and other Heartless tales. Seemed appropriate, considering the new book is tied very closely to Heartless. (For example, the heroine of the first story in this anthology is the sister of the heroine in Heartless. Yup, very closely tied together.)
  "The richness and emotion of these characters will grab you by the heart and the story will not let you go!" ~InD'tale Magazine
  Get Heartless at Amazon (US & UK), Apple, B&N, Smashwords, Sony, Diesel, and Kobo for only 99¢ until Feb 28.
  As another "woo-hoo" announcement, Whispered Beginnings, the Clever Fiction Writers Anthology that boasts one of my exclusive Regency short stories, is now free. Follow the title to read an excerpt of my short story and for buy links.
  And as always, My Lady Coward is free, The 11th Commandment is only 99¢ everywhere e-books are sold, and my one and only non-romance/fantasy short story The Dragon's Birth is also 99¢.
  *All links open in new tabs or windows, depending on your browser settings. All linked titles go to the corresponding page on my site where you can find blurbs, excerpts, and buy links.

  ~Regency Wednesday~ New Bethlem Hospital
  How about a Regency location for a change? I found the following print and description in the August 1817 edition of Ackermann's Repository.
  NEW BETHLEM HOSPITAL.
  St George's Fields.
  PLATE 8.—NEW BETHLEM HOSPITAL.
  Having in a preceding number described the architectural arrangement and general appearance of this institution, it will be sufficient here to advert to such particulars connected with its internal economy as are of any interest to the general reader.
  According to the rules of this institution, no person whatever, except governors, or those in company with a governor, is to be permitted to view the hospital and patients; but the president or treasurer may give written orders for the admission of any member of either House of Parliament at convenient hours.
  The keepers and servants are forbidden to receive any fee or gratuity whatever, either from visitors or others, on pain of dismission.
  The official return of the state of this hospital as delivered to the lord mayor, according to custom, on Easter Monday last, was as follows:
  Remaining in the hospital, 1815 . 118
  Buried last year . . . . . . . . . . . . . 8
  Cured and discharged last year . 102
  Patients under cure . . . . . . . . . . 115
  ------- incurable . . . . . . . . . . . 81
