DAILY TELEGRAPH — "Bridgerton without the sex ... easy, escapist reading with laughs, twists"

Bestselling author DG Rampton writes romantic comedy – historical and contemporary – featuring strong-willed heroines, dashing men and sparkling banter.

I have always been a creative creature at heart, with a passion for storytelling. But, by some mischievous twist of fate, I found myself studying engineering (the driest and most analytical of subjects) and followed that up by working in the construction industry for ten years. What possessed me, you might well ask! But eventually the call of my creative inclinations proved too demanding and I started to write.

If it wasn't for the wonderful reviews I have received from my readers, I may

Inspiration #1 for EARL TANGLED WITH STAR

My main inspiration for Lord Murdoch Buchanan, from my new RomCom EARL TANGLED WITH STAR, is this gorgeous specimen of maleness. What do you think, ladies?

“Chérie, whatever is the matter ? Did you not enjoy the dance? It seemed to me that you performed it well.’

‘Nothing at all is the matter,’ returned Artemisia, smiling forcefully. ‘I enjoyed myself immensely! And I did manage to step on your brother’s toes on several occasions, so it was a worthwhile experience all-round.”
D.G. Rampton

“Artemisia maintained a reserved silence for as long as she could, but by the time they entered the tranquillity of the park her amicability had reasserted itself. Besides, she concluded that there was no point in ignoring a person when they were so obtuse as to not realise they were being ignored.”
D.G. Rampton

“You forget yourself, your lordship. You have no rights to allow or disallow anything I may choose to do. You have, in fact, no claim over me whatsoever – a circumstance for which I thank the Lord on a daily basis! I am neither your ward nor your dependent, and I will not allow you to talk to me in that odiously overbearing fashion. You are the most obnoxious and conceited man alive, and I cannot wait to be gone from England and from you!”
D.G. Rampton

“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.”
Jane Austen, Mansfield Park

“We are all in the gutter, but some of us are looking at the stars.”
Oscar Wilde, Lady Windermere's Fan

“Good night, my lord.” The words were pronounced in her most withering tone.

By contrast, he remained quite alarmingly unwithered long after she left.”
Christina Brooke, London's Last True Scoundrel

“No book is ever perfect
No piece of art is ever perfect
No meal I cook is ever perfect
But at some point we have to eat...”
Tasha Turner
