Twelve Rollicking Regency Romances from New York Times bestselling author Kasey Michaels.
There's something almost magical about the Regency Era. Those years were unique unto themselves, caught between the excesses of the Georgian Age (filing down their front teeth so they could whistle like the coachies), and the more staid Victorian times (goodness – they actually began putting long cloths over pianos so as to not unduly upset the ladies with the sight of the instrument's "legs.").
The Regency served as a bridge between those two very different times, and has always reminded me a bit of America's 1960s. They had Lord Byron, and we had the Beatles. They had Bonaparte, we, sadly had a seemingly endless war of our own. We had Flower Children, they had fops, and dampened muslin. They had Beau Brummell, and we had Twiggy – okay, so that's pushing it.
But what we mostly had, they mostly had, was a near decade of change, experimentation in all areas of life, heady highs, horrible lows.
And through it all, somehow, the most delicious sense of humor, a great love of the absurd, and of course, the unending pursuit of romance.
I've gone on to touch on some of the more dangerous and serious events of the era in my books these past thirty-five years, but these – my earliest stories – concentrating on the vagaries of Regency society, the silliness, the eccentricities, remain very dear to my heart. They're "rainy day" books, meant to do nothing more than make us smile, sigh, hopefully giggle a time or two... and take a break from today's world for a few hours.
Now, please allow my ladies to entertain you!
