Summary

“With more than 50 mostly romance books under her belt, the author is more than adept at spinning a yarn and her characters, surprisingly enough, are a particularly engaging lot… As romantic fiction goes, this one’s a winner” - Daily Telegraph

Critics Review

With more than 50 mostly romance books under her (garter) belt, the author is more than adept at spinning a yarn and her characters, surprisingly enough, are a particularly engaging lot… whose back stories, which run to petty jealousies, domestic violence and even murder, are carried along nicely by Jacobs’ pacy writing and eye for historical detail. As romantic fiction goes, this one’s a winner. * Daily Telegraph *[Anna Jacobs has an] impressive grasp of human emotions * The Sunday Times *

About The Author

Anna Jacobs

Anna Jacobs grew up in Lancashire and emigrated to Australia, but still visits the UK regularly to see her family and do research, something she loves. She is addicted to writing and figures she’ll have to live to be 120 at least to tell all the stories that keep popping up in her imagination and nagging her to write them down. She’s also addicted to her own hero, to whom she’s been happily married for many years.

She is the bestselling author of over ninety novels and has been shortlisted for several awards, and Pride of Lancashire won the Australian Romantic Book of the Year Award in 2006.
