We are delighted that three of our Blake Friedmann authors have been shortlisted for the 2021 Romantic Novelists Association (RNA) Romantic Novel Awards. SECRETS OF THE LAVENDER GIRLS by Kate Thompson has been shortlisted for The Romantic Saga Award, THE COMING OF THE WOLF by Elizabeth Chadwick has been shortlisted for The Goldsboro Books Historical Novel Award, and CHRISTMAS WISHES by Sue Moorcroft has been shortlisted for The Sapere Books Popular Romantic Fiction Award.
RNA Chair, Imogen Howson, commented, “This year’s shortlists showcase, yet again, the wonderful variety of romantic fiction, with books from publishers large and small, from some authors who are household names and others who may well be the next big thing. In difficult times, the sales of romantic fiction rise, and these books—with all their humour, drama, excitement, and romance—remind us exactly why.”
The winners of the awards will be presented by actor and presenter Larry Lamb in a digital event on Monday 8th March.
