More About the Author

Bestselling novelist Cathy Maxwell, a storyteller since childhood, embraces her writing romance as a way to express her belief that "loving well is the greatest adventure of all," and to explore her fascination with the Regency period.

The author of twenty-five historical romance novels and four novellas Cathy's latest THE SEDUCTION OF SCANDAL, the fifth of her Scandal and Seduction novels, has just been published. The others, also set in the Regency period, are quintessential Cathy Maxwell--traditional historicals with a contemporary sensibility and a touch of humor. They are A Seduction at Christmas, The Marriage Ring, The Earl Claims His Wife, and His Christmas Pleasure. Each has appeared for multiple weeks on The New York Times Best Seller list.


Cathy received recognition from the start with her first novel, All Things Beautiful. Published in 1994, it was nominated for Best First Book by the Romance Writers of America and for Best First Historical by Romantic Times magazine. It also received first place recognition as Best Read of 1994 from the Reader's Voice

Born in Olathe, Kansas, Cathy's family roots go back to the Mayflower and the Revolutionary War. She has long called Virginia home, noting she is "a Virginian by choice, but a Kansan by nature." She worked in television news and spent six years in the Navy. She attended Air Force intelligence school, worked in the Pentagon and did a tour with Naval Intelligence.

Cathy began her writing career in 1991. Now, twenty years later, she is the author of sixteen national bestsellers and her novels appear regularly on The New York Times and USA Today bestseller lists. Her books include In the Highlander's Bed, Bedding the Heiress, In the Bed of a Duke, The Price of Indiscretion, Temptation of a Proper Governess, and The Seduction of an English Lady. She is a member of Romance Writers of America, Washington Romance Writers, Virginia Romance Writers, and Novelists Inc., and she is a frequent speaker at writers' conferences, libraries and special events.

She lives in rural Powhatan County with her rescued dogs Rico and Maya and with her son during college breaks, and is just a few miles from her horses, Duncan and Dinero.

5.0 out of 5 stars Falling in Love Again was an excellent book., March 19, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Falling in Love Again (Avon Romantic Treasure) (Mass Market Paperback)

I really enjoyed the depth of the characters and felt that I knew them well by the end of the book. The plot didn't ever become "thin" and held my interest throughout the story. There was a hot magnetism between the two main characters; they couldn't stay away from one another even though Mallory did her very best to resist her husband. I enjoyed reading about the "harvest home" and felt that the author not only researched it well but wove it into the plot in a well thought out manner. Readers will fall in love with Falling in Love Again.

5.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful Romantic Historical, July 20, 2006

This review is from: Falling in Love Again (Avon Romantic Treasure) (Mass Market Paperback)

After the death of her father, Lady Mallory is forced to marry John Barron in order to keep her beloved home Castle Craig. John Barron, is disgusted with his father's schemes to control his life. After the wedding, John escapes Castle Craig and England for a life in the military, leaving behind his young bride to tend to their home. He is guilt ridden that they both have been used as pawns in their family's games and thinks that leaving her is the best plan. Seven years later, John is forced to return from the continent after his fathers death and take up his new position of Viscount. He lives it up in London with gambling and mistresses, all the while his wife is barely eeking by at Castle Craig -unbeknownst to him because he believes that she is well kept with the money he has alloted. Mallory decides enough is enough when she is booted out of her beloved Castle for unpaid debts -her husbands. She seeks him out in London demanding her Castle back and an divorce. John is shocked to meet the fiery beauty. Things go from bad to worse when he learns that his uncle has been mounting debts in his name and has recently disappeared with all his money. Anne and John go on into hiding, posing as steward and his wife, in hopes that the uncle will surface believing his nephew has left the country.

In hiding, Mallory and John fall in love.

The story is absolutely beautiful in the way John tries to redeem himself for leaving Mallory all those years ago. She's reluctant at first, but he lays *siege* and is determined to win her heart. It's very heart warming to see the hero pursue his lady. Very romantic with lots of ~sigh~ scenes. This one's a shelf keeper, definitely makes the heart flutter.

If you liked this one, You and Only You by Maxwell is also terrific.

Lady Mallory and John Barron had no say in their arranged marriage. He was given a nights notice and Mallory was given about a day - all was arranged and two strangers met the wedding night. The wedding night was not to be remembered by Mallory, other than her humiliation that her groom left and would be gone for 7 long years.
Having been forced from Craige Castle for unpaid bills, she went in search of her errant husband with the sole purpose of gaining a divorce. She had heard that he had returned from the continent's wars and was whooping it up in London.

What follows is an absolutely lovely romantic story of love, trust and redemption. I thoroughly enjoyed the attempts of John to woo back his wife and finding himself falling in love with the woman that was once the girl he had left behind. It was so terribly sweet and so romantic. I did not find it boring at all ... This was truly a very touching love story and showed the growth and maturity of the two individuals who learned to overcome obstacles and find themselves to be friends who rather liked one another and then found that once in a lifetime....lasts forever kind of love! Great story!
