ABOUT THE AUTHORS

ELIZABETH EVERETT lives in Upstate New York with her family. Her Secret Scientists of London series has received critical acclaim from Kirkus, Booklist, Publishers Weekly, Entertainment Weekly, and various other outlets. Elizabeth’s work is inspired by her admiration for rule breakers and belief in the power of love to change the world.

LIANA DE LA ROSA is a historical romance author who writes diverse characters in the Regency and Victorian periods. Liana is a graduate of the University of Arizona, and in her past life she owned a mystery shopping company and sold pecans for a large farm. When she’s not writing, Liana is listening to true crime podcasts and pretending she’s a domestic goddess while she wrangles her spirited brood of children with her patient husband in Arizona.

AMALIE HOWARD is a USA Today and Publishers Weekly bestselling author. Always Be My Duchess was one of Cosmopolitan Magazine’s 30 Best Romance Books of 2022 and The Beast of Beswick was one of Oprah Daily’s 24 Best Historical Romance Novels to Read. Her books have also been featured in The Hollywood Reporter, Entertainment Weekly, and Seventeen Magazine. She is also the author of several critically acclaimed, award-winning young adult novels, including her latest YA release Queen Bee, which ALA Booklist called “A true diamond of the first water.” When she’s not writing, she can usually be found reading, being the president of her one-woman Harley Davidson motorcycle club, or power-napping. She lives in Colorado with her family.

Bestselling author DIANA QUINCY is a former television journalist who decided she'd rather make up stories where a happy ending is always guaranteed. Diana grew up all over the world as the daughter of a United States Foreign Service Officer. Since her 2013 debut, Diana’s books have landed on annual “Best of” lists in Library Journal, The Washington Post, and Kirkus Reviews.

Diana is now happily settled in Virginia, but still gets the itch to explore far-off places. When she’s not bent over her laptop writing, Diana reads, practices yoga and plots her next travel adventure.Diana loves to hear from readers. Follow her on Instagram and Facebook, and join her private readers’ Facebook group, Diana’s Divas
