More About the Author

New York Times best-seller Virginia Henley is the author of 26 lush and lusty historical romances and 5 short stories. Her books are published in 16 languages around the world. She is the recipient of a dozen awards including a Lifetime Achievement Award from Romantic Times, A Maggie Award for Excellence from the Georgia Romance Writers, and a Waldenbook Award for top-selling long historical for 1994.

The St. Petersburg Times calls Henley "The Queen of Steamy Romance."

Kathe Robin, RT Book Reviews says: "Henley's gift for bringing remarkable women to life in colorful, turbulent times is what turns her romances into keepers. Henley heats up the pages with her love scenes, and her skill at portraying actual historical personages with humanity while maintaining historical accuracy wins our minds. Henley knows what historical romance is all about and always gives the readers what they want."

Henley says: "My hero is always dark, dominant and dangerous. Then I create a woman who is a match for him...or more than a match!
Men come up to me at conferences and thank me for writing my books. One man said, "I don't read them, but I always know when my wife is reading a Henley!"

My next book The Dark Earl goes on sale September 6 and is the third in the series following The Decadent Duke, and The Irish Duke.

I have just turned two of my backlist books into Kindle ebooks. Wild Hearts and Bold Conquest are historical romances. My novella Hot As Fire, also available on Kindle, is my only contemporary. I have a short story up on Kindle called Letter of Love that is FREE.

Next month I will be offering a new ebook that is a Southern family saga.
MASTER OF PARADISE tells the story of Nicholas Peacock who is disinherited of his title and wealth in England. He sails to Charleston, South Carolina, and starts a cotton plantation just before the Civil War disrupts everyone's life.

4.0 out of 5 stars Pretty good, but definately not her best, March 10, 1999

I admit it was kinda hard to get through the beginning and parts of the middle, with all the battles going on and wondering why. I wish the character of Anne was brought more to life and included more in the story. And I never really understood why Margaret was so hateful towards everyone in the family? I love all Henley's books, she is a very talented writer. Raven and the Rose and Falcon and the Flower are still my favorites by far.

Virginia Henley proves once again that she is the queen of erotic romance. I snap up every one of her books as soon as they are available. I have never been disappointed.

Virginia Henley has done it again with this wonderful story of a Scottish orphan and the lusty rogue who wins her heart. As always, Ms. Henley paints a rich picture of the times and places in the book, skillfully weaving the history with the romance. I highly recommend Wild Hearts.
