Publication: Avon Books first printing 1987; re-issued 1997, ISBN 0-380-75398-7; available as Print-On-Demand trade paperback Setting: Regency England Mascot Animal: hedgehog Laura's Comment: She carries a hedgehog in her pocket, writes monographs about flying machines and tends to forget the name of the guy she's in love with. The heroine most closely resembling the author, in fact. Recognition: Finalist–1988 Romance Writers of America RITA Award for Best Regency Laura's Fave Reviews of Midsummer Moon: "Charming - that's about exactly the word. Reading it feels exactly like you're being charmed, from start to finish. Which is an absolutely lovely way to spend about 400 hundred pages." Beth, well-known blogger and mistress of Smart Bitches Mondays (full disclosure--also a friend ;)) "Midsummer Moon is one of the greatest unacknowledged romantic comedy novels and a true Desert Isle Keeper. Of course, it′s written by Laura Kinsale, queen of the Dark, Tormented Romance, so a laff-out-loud book isn′t quite the first thing you′d expect from her." --All About Romance (Hey, we can't all be funny all the time!
