The Heart's Companion (19 page)
"I would call that ignoble. I love you, Vernon."
"Society will talk."
"Will you please desist and surrender gracefully?" she said with laughing exasperation.
He grinned. "With all my heart."
And even if Jeremy had still been listening, he would not have heard anything but the sighs of two people in love.

As a child I was an avid reader, and if I didn't have anything to read, I wrote stories for myself. I wrote mysteries and action stories and science fiction. I wrote in pencil and filled notebook upon notebook. I still have one of those notebooks sitting on a shelf over my desk.
But I never thought of writing historical fiction. Then I joined a regency historical dance recreation group and immersed myself in the regency era. Consequently, I played at writing regency stories.
When I had the opportunity to speak to a literary agent I pitched my romantic suspense novels to her. That didn't interest her. She asked if I had anything else. I said I had been playing with a regency romance. That got her interest and she asked to see it. A few months later she found a publisher and I was off and writing furiously.
Unfortunately, publishers don't keep most books available in stores for very long, so I am bringing out my novels once again, but this time available for you on Kindle.
Titles available now are:
The Rocking Horse
a Regency Christmas short story
Coming to Kindle eBooks in 2013:
