I was first published in 2011 after seventeen years of submitting to
publishers and being rejected. It was a spectacular day! I wrote a short,
paranormal, erotic romance. In the following three years I wrote ten books for
that publisher. Not knowing where my voice should rest, I wrote: Paranormal,
Dystopian, Historical and contemporary, everything from sweet too erotic.
After three years the publisher went out of business, but I managed to
find a new publisher who liked my voice. I wrote a paranormal series set in
Regency England. The Demon Hunters is a fun, action packed series and it was
the sign I needed to make me to stick with historical romance.
Since then, I’ve written seven traditional Regency romances including the
Everton Domestic Society.
The inspiration for A Lady’s Virtue started a long time ago. When I was
thirty-five, my first husband died suddenly. After, I wanted to write about
that kind of loss, but just couldn’t do it. There’s nothing like losing a
spouse. Every moment of every day of your life changes in an instant. It’s
devastating, but I just couldn’t bring myself to write that book. Finally,
almost fifteen years later, I wrote and published A Lady’s Honor about Markus
Flammel losing his wife, Emma. Since I was blessed enough to fall in love a
second time, I knew Markus could as well.
Once the Everton
Domestic Society was created, I had all these fabulous women who needed their
stories told. Each Everton book highlights an Everton Lady; how she landed at
the Everton Domestic Society, what talent she has that can help others, and how
she finders her Happily Ever After. A Lady’s Virtue is the third book in the
series, but all of the books can be read as stand alone.
Thanks so much for
having me here today. I hope you enjoy A Lady’s Virtue!

About the Book:
Sylvia Dowder had almost made it to the altar when her fiancĂ© unexpectedly became a viscount, and dropped her like a stale crumpet to make a more “suitable” match. Though Sylvia’s heart has been crushed, her spirit has not. She puts her wits and social savvy to use as a secret gossip columnist—and as the Everton Domestic Society’s party planner to the ton. Luckily, she’s not in danger of ever falling for an aristocrat again…
Especially not one like Anthony Braighton, Earl of Grafton. Raised in America, Anthony sees no reason to marry when he can enjoy all the perks of being an eligible earl. Determined to convince his family he doesn’t need a wife, he hires Sylvia to act as hostess and decorator for upcoming parties. Yet Sylvia is as adept at captivating his interest as she is at beautifying his home. And despite this Everton lady’s aversion to titled men, some attractions can’t be denied—and love rarely does go where it’s told . . .
