A glittering ballroom. A dashing gentleman. And the delicious tension of everything that simply cannot be said in polite company. I'm Charity McColl, and I write clean Regency romance for readers who love a sparkling sentence and a slow-burning glance across the room — the timeless wit and warmth of Pride and Prejudice and Jane Austen's drawing rooms, never the spicy modern kind, with the bedroom door firmly closed. My world is the glittering one: the London season, the country house party, the carriage rides and card games and oh-so-proper introductions that hide a great deal of improper feeling. My heroines are quick-witted and never the wilting sort; my heroes are charming, maddening, and entirely undone by the one woman unimpressed by them. Full of laughter and longing in equal measure, my stories always waltz their way to a perfectly satisfying happy ending. If you love a clean Regency romance that makes you grin and sigh in the same breath, take my arm. Inside you'll find dukes and wallflowers, marriages of convenience, enemies to lovers, fake engagements, sparkling banter, and slow-burn swoon.
