edit data

Susan writes Georgian-set romances with gothic, fairy tale, and supernatural influences. When she’s not writing or researching, her pastimes include road cycling with her husband, pruning roses, and entertaining her impish Boston Terrier. She’s also been known to update her blog, Life Takes Lemons, where she explores all things tart and titillating in history.

Shadow Fire Lady is her debut novel, the first of four books in the Incorporeal Lords series.
