About the author

Blair Bancroft is an award-winning author, multi-published in several different romance genres. Her eclectic background includes a career in music, with forays into editing and costume design. She wrote her first novel only after it occurred to her that her mother being a successful author didn't mean she couldn't be one too. Blair has traveled most of the United States and as far away as Siberia and Machu Picchu, with emphasis on touring Great Britain and Ireland, and enjoys using bits of her travel experiences in her books.

Blair’s first book, TARLETON’S WIFE, won RWA’s Golden Heart award. Her traditional Regency, THE INDIFFERENT EARL (now published as THE COURTESAN’S LETTERS) won the Best Regency award from Romantic Times and was a nominee for RWA’s RITA award. She has also won a Best Romance award from the Florida Writers Association and Best YA award from EPIC. To keep things lively, over the last few years Blair has added the genre Regency Gothic and the Space Saga series, Blue Moon Rising, to her list of books.
