Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Nora Robert's "Angels Fall," which was made into a TV movie in 2007, is probably the best known book with this title, but which author wrote a historical romance similarly titled "Angel's Fall"?

Answer: Kimberly Cates

Kristin Hannah's contemporary romance is "Angel Falls." Tim Wynveen's "Angel Falls" is a mystery. Meagan Mckinney wrote a historical romance called "When Angels Fall."
2. Which two authors both have books titled "The Duke"?

Answer: Gaelen Foley; Catherine Coulter

Dukes are popular guys! Julia Quinn wrote about "The Duke and I." Suzanne Enoch described "Sins of a Duke." Leslie Lafoy wrote "The Duke's Proposal," Julia London advised us of "The Hazards of Hunting a Duke," Gayle Callen found "The Duke in Disguise" and Kathryn Caskie told us "How to Seduce a Duke" once we found him.
3. "Highland" or "Highlander" in a title is a sure bet to entice some romance readers. Which two authors have both written books titled "Highland Warrior"?

Answer: Hannah Howell; Connie Mason

Highlanders may even be more popular than Dukes. Karen Marie Moning goes a step further with "To Tame a Highland Warrior." Karen Hawkins instructs us "How to Abduct a Highland Lord." Jude Deveraux's series of Highland titles includes "Highland Velvet." Leanne Burroughs offers "Higland Wishes," among other titles. Amanda Scott writes about a "Higland Princess" and Julia London's series includes "Highlander in Love."
4. Kimberly Cates is one author of a book called "Stealing Heaven." Who are two other authors who have used this same title for historical romances?

Answer: Madeline Hunter; Jaclyn Reding

Cate's "Stealing Heaven" is set in nineteenth century Ireland; Hunter's has a Medieval setting; Reding's is in the Regency period.
5. Who advised us to "Never Seduce a Scoundrel"?

Answer: Sabrina Jeffries

This is the first title in Jeffries' "School for Heiresses" series. "Only a Duke Will Do" is the second title. (Dukes again!)
6. Who believes one should "Never Lie to a Lady"?

Answer: Liz Carlyle

"Never Lie to a Lady" is the first book in a triology; "Never Deceive a Duke" is the second title. (And once again, more Dukes!)
7. What do "Never Seduce a Scoundrel" and "Never Lie to a Lady" have in common, besides their similar sounding titles?

Answer: Both are linked to stories in an anthology

Some of the characters in "Never Lie to a Lady" were introduced in the anthology "The School for Heiresses"; the title story of that anthology is part of the series which includes "Never Seduce a Scoundrel." "Never Seduce a Scoundrel" was published in 2006 and is unusual for having a Regency setting but an American hero.
8. There's Gaelen Foley's "Lord of Fire" and "Lord of Ice," and Nicola Cornick's "Lord of Scandal" among many others, but if you've read Loretta Chase's "Lord of Scoundrels," you probably won't ever get him mixed up with other Romance lords. What plot point helps make this book stand out in the titled crowd?

Answer: all of these

A hero like no other PLUS a heroine like no other have helped make this one of the most popular and well regarded historical romances ever written.
9. Which two historical romance authors both wrote about "One Night of Scandal"?

Answer: Nicola Cornick; Teresa Medeiros

Gaelen Foley wrote about "One Night of Sin" -- though that turned out to be quite an understatement. Samantha Garver has "One Night to be Sinful" and Elizabeth Boyle has "One Night of Passion." Sophie Jordan wrote "One Night with You." Celeste Bradley wrote "One Night with a Spy"; Sabrina Jeffries topped her with "One Night with a Prince."
10. Unlike more generic titles about "One Night" of this or that, Mary Balogh's "One Night for Love" is actually descriptive of part of the book's plot. What separated the husband and wife after their wedding night?

Answer: war

Wed during wartime, the hero and heroine of this book had one night together before being separated; when they are finally reunited, he is just about to marry someone else!
