~NEW Info on J.R Ward's THE REBEL~

-Expected publication: June 28th 2011 by HQN Books

 So for months now I've been watching this "new" J.R Ward title wondering exactly what it is. I assumed it was a re-release of one of her earlier Harlequin titles she published under the name of Jessica Bird and turns out I was right. THE REBEL is in fact a re-issue of BEAUTY AND THE BLACK SHEEP which was originally released by Harlequin in July of 2005. It is part of her 4-part MOOREHOUSE LEGACY series and includes;

Here's the correct reading order for the series
1-Beauty And The Black Sheep
2-His Comfort and Joy

3-From The First

4-A Man In A Million

This is not to be confused with The Billionaire Next Door from the (The O'Banyon Brothers series) Which Bird/Ward unfortunately never completed. There is a super fun cameo (squeal) in this story though of Butch O'Neil, mentioned as a teenaged friend of the hero.

The whole Moorehouse Legacy series is really good and I can recommend it. Its fun to catch Ward in her early days of writing and you can definitely see the beginnings of the Black Dagger Brotherhood taking shape here in her (strictly) romance heroes.  I'm assuming that the rest of the books will also be re-released at some point in the future.

Here's the link to my review
