Shana Galen is three-time Rita award nominee and the bestselling author of fast-paced, witty, and adventurous Regency romances. Kirkus says of her books, "The road to happily-ever-after is intense, conflicted, suspenseful and fun," and RT Bookreviews calls her books “lighthearted yet poignant, humorous yet touching." She taught English at the middle and high school level off and on for eleven years. Most of those years were spent working in Houston's inner city. Now she writes full time. She's happily married and has a daughter who is most definitely a romance heroine in the making.

Shana Galen answered Missy's question: Hello, Shana. I get too busy sometimes to sit down and read an ebook. I would much prefer to listen to an audio book and multi-task, so I was curious as to why some of your books do not have audio books, like the two most recent Survivors books A Duke a Dozen and How the Lady Was Won? By the way, I can't believe you plan to write a book for each survivor and for Lt. Draven! Wishing you all the best with this series! Hi Missy, I love audio books.I have to drive a lot and walk my dog a lot, so I can read and drive/walk with an audio book. Sometimes I am able to sell the audio rights to one of my books before it's published and the audio book can come out concurrent See Full Answer

Quotes by Shana Galen

“When love fills one's heart, there should be no room for pride.”
― Shana Galen, When You Give a Duke a Diamond

“You prefer thieving to honest work?” “Honest work? How much do you pay your maids annually? Six pounds? Eight? I can make that in a month—in a night, if all goes well. I could make more than that as a beggar. Why do you think so many take to the streets, begging? Because honest work is hardly honest when the only one profiting is the rich man who owns the workplace.” She was right. Dane knew it, and he hated to accept”
