About this author

Once an award-winning copywriter for brands such as Diet Coke and Johnnie Walker, I switched to tea with my debut novel.

I graduated with honors in English Literature from the University of Wisconsin-Madison and lived and worked in London. That inspired the book, but the reality of life in a Chicago suburb with my husband, my son, daughter, and various pets provided the opportunity to write it.

I'm a life member of the Jane Austen Society of North America and can appreciate what a floor-length gown and opera gloves offer a girl!

" Loved this book! It is light reading but I learned alot about Regency details! This book was funny, well-written and must be on the list of anyone who has read Jane Austen. Little details from Ms. Austen's books pop up throughout this book.
