About the author
Kaitlin O'Riley
14 books119 followersKaitlin has always loved books and loved to read.
As a young girl growing up on the New Jersey shore (yes, she is a Jersey Girl!) she spent hours and hours reading at the beach, out on the front porch, and in her bedroom very late at night when she was supposed to be sleeping. She would walk to the little public library in town and choose books as if they were delicious treats in a candy store. She read all the classic “girl” books: Little Women, as well as every other book written by Louisa May Alcott, the entire Anne of Green Gables series, and The Secret Garden, by Frances Hodgson Burnett. All of these stories took place in another time period, so different from her own life and that was very appealing.
Kaitlin fell in love with historical romances when she was fourteen years old and first read Mistress of Mellyn, by Victoria Holt. Even before she devoured every single one of her books, Kaitlin was hooked on historical romance fiction. She then moved on to the likes of the novels by Kathleen Woodiwiss (Shanna and The Flame and the Flower) which she read stealthily, when her older sisters were not home to see that she was reading their books. However, her all time favorite book was, and still is, Margaret Mitchell’s Gone With the Wind. Now she adores the works of Lisa Kleypas, Julia Quinn, and Phillipa Gregory.
Her love of reading translated naturally to a love of writing. She has written personal journals since she was fourteen and has adored every creative writing class she took in school. She actually wrote her first romances when she was fifteen, with her best friend. Sadly, they had no clue what they were writing about in those spiral notebooks, having no romantic experiences to draw from at that point! Most of those early efforts were tossed in a fireplace, but one notebook still survives to haunt her.
In college Kaitlin took a detour from writing and became a foreign language major, spending her junior year in Spain. And because stories of the past always intrigued her, she also studied history.
Kaitlin now lives in sunny Southern California with her family, where she is busy writing her next novel!
Q&A with Kaitlin O’Riley
On Writing:
How do you come up with the ideas for your books?
This is probably the question most frequently asked of me, and probably asked of most writers. I’m sure each author has her own methods of inspiration. As for myself, my ideas come to me in different ways. Sometimes I just close my eyes and imagine. Other times ideas come to me while listening to music. I often get inspiration from conversations with my family and friends. A lot of my writing, especially the dialogue, happens naturally, while I’m writing at the computer. The characters I’ve created will just start talking.
Why do you write historical romance?
Because I love the genre and always have. I’m also a bit of a history buff. Past eras fascinate me--the elegant clothing, the styles, the mannerisms, the confining societal elements. The past always seems more romantic and it has already happened it’s easy to idealize it. (Even when I look back to the 1980’s!) Sometimes I think I was born in the wrong century, but then again I couldn’t do without some of the modern comforts, like air conditioning and electricity.
Are your characters based on people you know in real life?
Now that’s a tricky question and one that could get me in trouble. I suppose most of the characters are combinations of everyone I know or have ever known. I don’t think I have ever intentionally based one particular character on one particular person. (And if I did, I’m not telling who it was!) However, I do use names of family members and friends for characters and even add the names of local places from my hometown in my books, for the amusement of those who know me.
Which is your favorite of the books you have written?
They are all my favorites in different ways. But I must say I enjoyed

This book is full of cliches (see the list below but there are also spoilers), but sometimes that's exactly what I need in a romance novel. This is my first time reading a book by this author. It's pretty easy to read. I was able to finish the book in one day.

Vivienne Montgomery and Aidan Kavanaugh grew up together in Ireland, fell in love, and were supposed to marry. Instead, Aiden believes Vivienne betrayed him and he left for London without looking back. Ten years later, they meet again at a house party. The bond is still real, but so is the pain and mistrust.
This is a stand alone novel, and I had a hard time rating it. I made it through in one day and genuinely liked it, even though I spent 85% of the book annoyed that the hero is a giant dummy. This is a "misunderstanding" trope, and Aiden refused to listen to Vivienne, wasting ten years of their lives. They had known each other for eight years and he loved her, but he abandoned her. When they meet again, he's an ass and continues to treat her poorly...then he's surprised that she doesn't believe his warnings about another houseguest.
I loved Vivienne and I was basically rooting for HER. Aiden and Vivienne had great chemistry and a lovely backstory. I did believe in their bond and they were great in bed (and storage closets)! Aiden does win her back and apologize, but I think he deserved to grovel even harder.

Meh...the heroine was a stunning beauty who'd been wronged. The hero was a judgemental, rich earl with a selfish, wicked mother. I liked the some of the supporting characters, but never really warmed to the H/H. Once they were young lovers in Ireland. Right after his father died, making him earl, she was 'caught' in a compromising situation. He never spoke to her...she never explained.
Fast forward ten years. They meet again at a house party in England. His mother is pushing him to marry. He's not so hot on the idea and is more worried about attempts to cripple his business. They see each other and are still attracted and have sex. She tries to explain about the misunderstanding, but he doesn't believe her. They part angrily. They're caught pretty much flagrante delicto and must marry. There's action from his enemy, more misunderstandings, his witch of a mother...you can probably write this one yourself.

3.5 or maybe more. I like the “hero abandons heroine because something and she suffers and he realizes he was wrong”, but in this book her ten years (!!) as a very poor and lonely outcast was just brushed over and suddenly she was a sought-after young woman about to get her season.
I wish we and the hero got to see and understand more of what she went through, I wish he teared his hair out in despair for what he did and the years they missed, instead it was lovey-dovey and HEA.

I devoured this book in ONE DAY! I just could not put it down. I threw snacks at my children and let them watch as much TV as they wanted while I immersed myself in this story.
This story pulled at all my heart strings. We meet Vivienne and Aidan at a house party where we quickly realize these two have a heartbreaking history. I really enjoyed the banter and tension between these two characters as they find their way back to each other. Their journey back to love is rife with drama, a vindictive mother in law, steamy interludes, scandal, a bit of mystery and a whole cast of wonderful secondary characters. This author took me on a rollercoaster ride of emotions during this book and I loved every single second of it!

As always...SPOILERS AHEAD!!...
The author shot herself in the foot with this one. O'riley is a good enough writer, so good that when I read flashbacks of the hero and heroine as children, then falling in love, I thought it was beautiful and moving. Which makes it rather hard to believe that Aidan (said hero) would leave his heroine without a backward glance, without demanding an explanation. This act alone colored my view of Aidan for the rest of the book.
Now you make think this rather extreme of me, but the H/H didn't merely meet at some soiree and fall in love. Vivienne and her grandmother took in an unloved and confused 10 year old boy (Aidan), and made him like family. He was showed love for the first time. Vivienne was his very first friend, and from the start she was a forthright and loving child. When, pray tell, did he think she became a treacherous conniving harlot? There is no excuse for his subsequent behavior whatsoever!
(The scenes with Aggie were so well written that I still don't understand why Aidan never went back for an explanation even after he left England. He had 10 years! She was like his grandmother! Stupid clod.)
Thrown into the mix was the fact that his own valet was the one who compromised them and said *nothing* for ten years, and suddenly Aiden is Mr. Understanding.
I believe O'riley wanted to make Vivienne a bit tragic, but the situation was just a bit absurd. Not only does her fiance and best friend desert her for ten years, she was apparently living in poverty, and then her grandmother and father dies. And that's just the start till she reaches England.
The intrigue in the plot with Jackson Harlow rather muddied everything for me. In addition to meeting the jerk from her past , Vivienne is also trying to get closure on her father's death plus deal with the (soon to be) mother in law from Hades.
All in all, this was a very inticately drawn plot, though I do think the ending was rushed. (I guess the book could only be but so long.)
What I did like about the book, was that it starts in the present, and then has flashbacks to the past. It gave the story a rather layered and textured feel.
I still think it was bad that in 3 pages and some tearful exchanges 10 years is magically erased. I guess that is what makes this a piece of fiction. The perfect ending for me would been Aidan's mother being banished to the united states, Aidan grovelling some more and Vivienne rejecting him and taking her newfound wealth back to Ireland sans the hero.

This was what I'd call a racy Victorian novel. It was a really good read, and I enjoyed the story from start to finish, altho' I was a tad frustrated with the hero a couple of times! The story flowed well, I was never bored, and I enjoyed the author's writing style. Definitely a keeper, I would read it again for sure. Recommend to anyone who likes Victorian Romance, and is fine with there being sexual scenes in the stories they read.

I actually enjoyed this book a lot. I thought the characters had a lot of misunderstandings though, and could have talked almost everything out had they not been so stubborn. That kind of grated on me. I could feel the tension when they argued, but she gave in so easily when he started kissing her. Hold your ground girl! I also didn't enjoy the pacing when it went in the past to show how their friendship/love evolved over the years. Overall, it was a good book and kept me interested.

Flip it so fast that I didn’t see what’s coming next. Just need to reach to the end. Sorry, some parts are well written, other parts are just okay. It’s a quick reading on my part.
In summary, the story started when hero and heroine were childhood friend, met again as teenager when the hero came back from school, fell in love, mother of the hero is super evil that only focus on living in London, being respectable fam and find a respectable wife for the son/hero, hates the heroine so much that she even planned such an evil masterplan to remove the heroine from her son’s life.
They met again 10 years later (or so, i forgot) in a house party hosted by the heroine’s aunt family, old flame rekindled, they got caught one night by their family and forced to get married.
You know you can guess the rest of the story right?
Except that sometimes I find both hero and heroine are annoying, the heroine is weak, the hero is stone headed, not willing to hear the heroine's side of story, always assuming. I hate people who always assume that their assumption is the fact or truth.
However, as I said, some parts are well written that it got me feel for the heroine. Only some. And it’s also a quick reading.

Vivienne and Aidan fell in love as children. After proposing to her he catches her with another man or so he believes. Ten years later they meet again and the sparks still fly. Very good second chance romance.

stopped at chapter 5. i did not like the hero or heroine. they're just cold. the way i see it, it's a case of misunderstanding and miscommunication and i don't like that. my first book from this author and it was disappointing. i couldn't be bothered about the fire or the heroine's father.

This book kind of threw me. It started out with a misunderstanding and both feeling wronged, but as the book progressed, you learned more and more about their initial relationship. The final reveal left me feeling warm and gooey inside. I kind of loved this book. I love angst so there was plenty of that but then there was this whole other element to their initial relationship that I wasn't expecting.

I'm going to say this is 3.5 Stars for me. I picked this book up at the Salvation Army, along with a few other romances. I'd never heard of this author before, but the back cover blurb sounded good, so I got it. This story was pretty good. The author had good ideas, and I liked her writing style, it flowed well. The only thing keeping me from giving this book 4 Stars is the characters. They were good and all, but sometimes they were just a little, well, I don't know how to phrase it. The heroine, Vivienne was occasionally pretty ditzy, and not in the cutesy, likable way. Also, within the first 50 pages, I was tired of reading how delicate she was, how tiny she was, how petite she was, how pixie-like she was, how small and waif-ish she was, how fine-boned and slender and fragile she was. Ok, I get it, she was tiny and beautiful and skinny and perfect. But every time someone looked at her, I didn't need constant reminders of how tiny and delicate and petite and waif-ish and etc. See, it gets old after a bit. Especially when in the same paragraph as the hero thinking about her small size and tiny-ness, he also says she's lush and curvy. Um, if she's tiny and skinny and fragile, she can't be lush and curvy. At least not to me. To me lush and curvy means "of a more rounded shape", like this: whereas waif-ish means "scrawny like Kate Moss , but shorter". At least to me. Also, the hero, Aidan was sort of oblivious at times. His mother was the main villain, and she constantly was putting the heroine down, saying she was garbage, and a whore, and even at one point hinted very strongly that she had done something to set Vivienne up for ruin. But the hero didn't catch on to this. He just thought his mother would come around eventually, that she wasn't really being mean. A lot of things could've been solved easily if the h and H would've just talked things out. But instead, whenever they started to try to talk serious, it always devolved into kissing, and then sex. Which the sex was ok, rather steamy actually. But still, they should've talked things out. Their love started when they were teenagers in Ireland, an all-consuming flames of passion, perfect for each other in every way, best friends in the whole wide world since childhood turned to lovers kinda style. And it was sweet as all get out. I could feel their emotions for each other, how their whole world revolved around each other. But they get split up. Aidan comes to their special place, only to find some other guy on top of her, and her dress unbuttoned, open to the waist. He automatically assumes the worst, and packs up and leaves for England without even giving her a chance to explain, or even saying goodbye. He just leaves her to the scandal. Because everyone in town knew they were to be married, and of course all the gossips spread around that she had been caught with someone else. So she's pretty much ruined, and her and her grandmother live scorned and in poverty. Ten years later, they meet again in England, and now Viv is living with her aunt and uncle and cousins. They wind up being at the same week-long house party, and of course, their attraction has never died. But there's a lot of animosity between them. They're both stubborn and prideful, and it takes a lot to get them liking each other again. All in all, it was a good story, with lots of emotions, and some tense moments, and even some action-type stuff towards the end. The characters were a little black and white, especially the villains. They were bad, all bad, no shred of humanity, wicked people to the core. There wasn't really any background into why they were so bad, or what caused them to become so mean. Otherwise, it was an entertaining read, and I'll look for more by this author, because she writes well, and can get me involved with the characters and their emotions, and that's a skill any writer should have. Again, 3.5 Stars!

I actually liked this story. It was about a girl who got a second chance at the love of her life. There was of course the evil mother-in-law to be who plotted against them, but failed to stop them meeting by chance in the future. Then there was the evil guy who wanted it all for himself, even at the expense of life. The cousin who didn't like being ignored and not pampered. Then there were also the other cousin twins who you couldn't help but love.
In all, I really did enjoy reading this story. The author did a wonderful job writing the back history between the two characters it was hard not to see their love and how deep it ran.

If you love a read that sweeps you off to another time, you will adore this book as much as I did. I love the historical details so delicately laced throughout, and the H & H's reunion is just charming.
