If you had told me, all those years ago when I started writing, that one day a book of mine would be redone as a comic book in Japan, I would have probably thought you were off your rocker. I kinda thought my agent was off a bit when she sent me the news. A comic book? Really? Of my characters?
Then the kid in me took over. OMG! I’m going to have a comic book!
So for all of you, here is the first sneak peak of Jack and Miranda from This Rake of Mine as manga characters:

I think it is so much fun–Jack looks so dashing. And for those of you who haven’t read This Rake of Mine, you might want to pick it up over the summer and get caught up. My September book, Mad About the Duke features Jack’s brother, that stickler for propriety, James Tremont, the Duke of Parkerton.
Maybe after James finds his true love, he might be open to a little manga adventure?
OMG! This is sooo cool!
As a kid I read all the classics in comic book versions. Even now when someone mentions one of those, from Dickens to Shakespeare, I see the artists images too.
Congrats!
Wow, how very cool! I actually have not read that one…and my husband just got me an e-reader. Is it available in eformat?? If so it will be my first purchase!!
Nicole, you sure have a nice husband and yes, This Rake of Mine is available in eformat! Not sure which reader you have, but it is available in most of the commonly used ones. Enjoy!
A very nice husband indeed….and he surprised me considering my reading obsession is not really one of his favorite things about me!!
It must be love! And yes I found it on the Sony estore! Cant wait!
This Rake of Mine is my favorite of all your tales. I downloaded it on my Kindle, even though I have a hard copy of it. In fact, I am on my fourth or fifth reading of it. Of course, I will HAVE to have this version.
Can’t wait to see the Duke get his story!
Congrats on this latest edition of This Rake of Mine.
you will show us a link to get this when it comes out in print, won’t you?
Absolutely I will share a link! I’ll be bragging to everyone and anyone when it comes out.
So cool to see the artwork! Thanks for posting it!
WOW!THAT’S SO COOL
