Romantic Comedy:
AEFLE & GISELA by Libby Malin
Romance, comedy and satire combine in this story of a man finding the courage to buck conformity and go after the woman he loves. Set in the insulated world of academe, Aefle & Gisela tells the tale of medieval history professor Thomas Charlemagne who, on a dare, stops a wedding. But it's the wrong wedding... or so he thinks until the bride turns out to be just as eager to leave the altar as he is to leave his small town reputation for timidity behind.
Libby Malin blends pathos and humor in this story of a man discovering what it means to be a real hero. Malin is also the author of Fire Me and My Own Personal Soap Opera.

Historical Romance Novella:
LOVE'S DESTINY FORETOLD by Mary Fisherov
“The Ace of Clubs, if on your right, presages a happy marriage; if on your left – disloyalty and separation.”
A sweeping historical love story that brings together an exiled Russian countess, an opera singer, and a world-traveling playboy in the slums and mansions of 1890s New York City, Love's Destiny Foretold is a combination of delicious action and witty surprises, a delightful confection of a book for fans of larger-than-life storytelling (think Moulin Rouge), epic romance, and some sly observations of “revolutionaries.”

Mary Fisherov is an internationally published writer of literary fiction whose novels have been translated into German, Spanish, and French. She has been awarded several literary prizes in her native Russia. Love's Destiny Foretold is her first work in English. She is on the Classics faculty at a California university.
From an interview with the author: “In Russia I am asked sometimes if I would ever write a novel about the U.S. Instead of writing about the U.S., I decided to write an American novel. Not in the sense of the Great American Novel, of course. But American in the sense of musicals and potboilers, written in the way that seems American to us, Russians: plot twists, cliffhangers, a dynamic sequence of events, a happy end.”
