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.

Rachel’s Quotes

“Let other pens dwell on guilt and misery. I quit such odious subjects as soon as I can, impatient to restore everybody not greatly in fault themselves to tolerable comfort, and to have done with all the rest.”

“Seeing his face so soft and full of concern made her heart melt like sealing wax over her father’s letters. And Peyton had already stamped his mark into the tender mess.”
