I write traditional Regency romances, drawing room, rather than bedroom, inspired by Georgette Heyer.
In the 'Silver Linings Mysteries', the Brig Minerva sinks with the loss of almost all on board. For their heirs, the tragedy brings big changes and unexpected benefits, but the past isn't easy to leave behind. A 6-book series, starting with 'The Widow'.
In the 'Sisters of Woodside Mysteries', Mr Edmund Winterton of Woodside dies, leaving his unmarried daughters destitute, and needing to find genteel employment to survive. A 5-book series, each one a complete story with a HEA, starting with 'The Governess'.
In 'Sons of the Marquess', Lord Carrbridge discovers his finances are in a perilous state. His five brothers must find ways to support themselves. Will they choose careers, or look for rich heiresses to support their wealthy lifestyle? A 5-book series, each one a complete story with a HEA, starting with 'Lord Reginald'.
In 'The Daughters of Allamont Hall', when Mr William Allamont dies unexpectedly, his will includes generous dowries for his six daughters, but only on condition that they marry in the proper order, the eldest first. A 6-book series, each one a complete story with a HEA, starting with 'Amy', or for even better value, pick up the box set of books 1-3.

I live in the beautiful Highlands of Scotland with my husband. I like chocolate, whisky, my Kindle, massed pipe bands, long leisurely lunches, chocolate, going places in my campervan, eating pizza in Italy, summer nights that never get dark, wood fires in winter, chocolate, the view from the study window looking out over the Moray Firth and the Black Isle to the mountains beyond. And chocolate. I dislike driving on motorways, cooking, shopping, hospitals.
