edit data

Rachel writes faith-based Regency romance with rich historical detail.

Already addicted to happy endings, Rachel first read Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice at the age of thirteen and fell in love, not only with Mr Darcy, but with the entire Regency period.

Since 2011, she has been blogging about her research on the Regency History blog. She writes historical non-fiction based on this research.

Rachel lives in the beautiful Georgian seaside town of Weymouth, Dorset, on the south coast of England, with her husband, Andrew. They have four grown-up daughters and a growing number of grandchildren.
