About the author

Gail makes her home on the beautiful west coast of Canada, where she’s happy to say umbrellas outnumber snow shovels. Originally hailing from Wales, she says her fascination with the Regency period began during frequent trips back to visit family and friends when Sunday afternoon drives would inevitably lead to a castle, a cathedral, or a country house hotel (where she also discovered an unfortunate fondness for Devonshire cream teas and sticky toffee pudding).

She has written over twenty historical and paranormal romances and thinks the idea of writing a novel while sipping wine in Tuscany would have to be about as good as it gets!

Reviews

[Maria · Rating 1 out of 5]

Two novellas in one book, the first I found frustrating because the hero conveniently loses his memory at a time when it might mean the death of his affianced bride. Too much anxiety for me. The second is a 20th century Regency which I always find unfortunate. The rakes acted more like cads, and the marriage-minded young ladies acted more like they didn't understand the morals and possible risks of their time. Ugh!
