Goodreads asked Meredith Allard:

Where did you get the idea for your most recent book?

Meredith Allard I've had an idea about a love story set in Victorian London for about 15 years now but I was busy with other projects so I never got around to it. Finally, after I finished the Loving Husband Trilogy, I had the time to work on it. By that time I had fallen in love with Downton Abbey, so that changed the direction of my original idea a bit. I know Downton began in the Edwardian era, but I'm keeping my story set in Victorian times.
