Praise for
Loving Lady Marcia

“Kramer’s unique take on the TV series
The Brady Bunch
is a delight: funny, sweet, sexy, smart, and more charming than the show. With Kramer’s
enchanting sense of humor, the blonde, lovely Brady girls and their irascible brothers,
loving parents, and housekeeper Alice are off on a romp that rivals Shakespeare for
a comedy of errors. Readers will be up all night before drifting off to dream of a
love story like this.”

—RT Book Reviews

“Kramer scores with the inaugural House of Brady imbroglio.… Though [she] includes
her characteristic lighthearted touches, she’s smart and confident enough to take
her characters and their situations seriously, turning what could have been a one-line
joke into a deep and appealing story.”

—Publishers Weekly

“The Impossible Bachelors feature[s] delightfully witty and vibrant prose to match
the books’ unforgettable titles.… Kramer’s clever and engaging style is now employed
in the service of finding the perfect mate for each of the six Brady siblings. Libraries
should buy a bunch.”

—Library Journal

“An emotional story that will leave readers loving Lady Marcia.”

—Romance Reviews Today

“[An] entertaining homage to [the] television series.”

—Night Owl Reviews

“Fans of the TV sitcom
The Brady Bunch
will be amazed at how cleverly and unexpectedly Kramer improvises on the show in
her latest incandescently witty, completely captivating Regency historical.”
