NYT bestselling author Claire Delacroix always loved stories, both telling them and hearing them. She sold her first romance novel in 1992 and has published over eighty romance novels since. She writes in a variety of subgenres, including time travel romance, historical romance, medieval romance, fantasy romance and fantasy with romantic elements. She has also written under the names Claire Cross and Deborah Cooke. She makes her home with her family, a number of incomplete knitting projects and a lot of overgrown houseplants. Claire loves to travel, to cook, to ride her bike and to read.
I love writing linked books:
Blood Brothers is my most recent series of Scottish medieval romances:
1. The Wolf & the Witch
2. The Hunter & the Heiress
3. The Dragon & the Damsel
4. The Scot & the Sorceress
I'm currently working on a Regency romance series called The Ladies' Essential Guide to the Art of Seduction.
1. The Christmas Conquest
2. The Masquerade of the Marchioness
3. The Widow's Wager
4. The Hellion's Heart
5. The Bluestocking's Bargain (October 2024)
6. The Duke's Desire (spring 2025)
The Brides of North Barrows is a series of Regency romances, some with paranormal elements, which is set in the same Regency world:
1. Something Wicked This Way Comes
2. A Duke by Any Other Name
3. A Baron for All Seasons
4. A Most Inconvenient Earl
Many of my books are set at Ravensmuir, Kinfairlie or Inverfyre and feature the families there. The Rogues of Ravensmuir trilogy of medieval Scottish romances introduces the family:
1. The Rogue
2. The Scoundrel
3. The Warrior
The Jewels of Kinfairlie series of medieval Scottish romances tells the stories of the next generation after the Rogues of Ravensmuir:
1. The Beauty Bride
2. The Rose Red Bride
3. The Snow White Bride
4. The Ballad of Rosamunde
The True Love Brides series continues with the family introduced in the Jewels of Kinfairlie. There are eight siblings all together, and these are the next four:
1. The Renegade's Heart
2. The Highlander's Curse
3. The Frost Maiden's Kiss
4. The Warrior's Prize
The Brides of Inverfyre series includes the story of the last sibling from Kinfairlie (Ross) as well as those of the children of the Hawk and Aileen (from The Warrior):
1. The Mercenary's Bride
2. The Runaway Bride
3. The Stolen Bride
The Champions of St. Euphemia is a medieval romance series that has no connection to Ravensmuir, Kinfairlie or Inverfyre. It follows a group of knights from Jerusalem to Scotland and should be read in order:
1. The Crusader's Bride
2. The Crusader's Heart
3. The Crusader's Kiss
4. The Crusader's Vow
5. The Crusader's Handfast
The Bride Quest series of medieval romances:
1. The Princess - my first USAToday bestseller
2. The Damsel - a USAToday bestseller
3. The Heiress - a USAToday bestseller
4. The Countess - a USAToday bestseller
5. The Beauty - a USAToday and New York Times bestseller
6. The Temptress
I also wrote four stand-alone time travel or paranormal romances which were first published under the pseudonym Claire Cross. These have been republished as Claire Delacroix titles:
1. Once Upon a Kiss
2. The Last Highlander
3. The Moonstone
4. Love Potion #9
I've been revising and republishing some of my older works:
Unicorn Bride
Pearl Beyond Price
Rogues & Angels is a series that crosses between old and new.
1. One Knight Enchanted is a revised version of my book Enchanted
2. One Knight's Return is a revised version of my book My Lady's Champion
3. One Knight's Desire is an entirely new work.
I also write contemporary romance and paranormal romance as Deborah Cooke.
