Leo Arundel is the object of every woman’s affection in London. That’s why everyone is shocked when Leo finds himself jilted, none more than Leo himself. If only he didn’t have a pesky deadline to find a bride before the new year.
Holly is a maid with a huge secret. Worse, her job at a castle in Northumberland will end after the holidays. When she discovers that her neighbor requires a bride, she decides she may as well propose...
Born in Texas, Bianca Blythe spent four years in England. She worked in a fifteenth-century castle, though sadly that didn't actually involve spotting dukes and earls strutting about in Hessians.
She credits British weather for forcing her into a library, where she discovered her first Julia Quinn novel. She remains deeply grateful for blustery downpours.
After meeting her husband in another library, she moved with him to sunny California, though on occasion she still dreams of the English seaside, scones with clotted cream, and sheep-filled pastures. For now, she visits them in her books.
