Hello and welcome to the celebration of a new series!

As I mentioned in a previous blog, it can be a little bittersweet to end a series – but you have to end one to begin another. I’m super excited to be launching a multi-generational series of love stories all within one (rather rambunctious) family.

Now, I’m not going to pretend that starting to write a new series is easy. In fact, it is incredibly difficult! I knew my characters in my Dukes in Danger series really well, and that made writing each installment a little easier. Now that I’m meeting a whole new family, there’s a lot of characterisation to create.

I have to think about the different family dynamics; about how birth order can affect sibling interactions; how becoming adults in the Regency era is very different from the Victorian.

I need to think about how one sibling finding love could draw them closer, or further away, from their other siblings. Who the favourite daughter (!) and son would be. And just how far a family would go to interfere in the love lives of their members (hint: very far).

Honestly, it took me a little time to get into the vibe of this series because I really wanted to make sure that they were believable as a family. There’s nothing worse than reading a story about a family who get on all the time – but I didn’t want there to be too much drama!

I really hope that you enjoy it. Keep an eye out for the launch of the first book!
