Lady Kate Derramore and the Marquis of Northbrooke have one thing in common: In order to receive their inheritances, they must marry. Lady Kate, prevented from marrying the man she loves by her father’s will, determines to marry for convenience. With the forthrightness for which she is noted, she sets her sights on Jack—aforesaid Marquis. Jack, meanwhile, has tumbled into love with Kate at their first meeting. All might have gone swimmingly, were it not for his “other life,” the mysterious job that calls him out of town at the most inopportune moments. Unwittingly, he puts Lady Kate’s life in danger, and while attempting to rescue her comes up against her “reins-grabbing” nature. Will he ever be able to master Lady Kate? Will he ever be able to oust another man from her heart? And, despite Kate’s penchant for disaster, will he be able to save her life and his own? "Prolific author G.G. Vandagriff creates a world full of intrigue, suspense, and romance that fans of the Regency Period will adore. Vandagriff writes in a style reminiscent of Georgette Heyer."--Deseret News. This is the second book in my Regency trilogy, Three Rogues and Their Ladies. Though I write in many genres, Regency romances come the most easily. It is like writing about a fantasy world with all its set rules, settings, fashions, speech, etc. These things have been stored in my mind since age twelve when I read my first Georgette Heyer. G. G. Vandagriff is a traditionally published author who has recently gone indie. She loves the Regency period, having read Georgette Heyer over and over since she was a teen. G. G. is already at work on her next Regency romance and plans on writing at least a trilogy. She also has a great many fans of her earlier books, particularly the award-winning  The Last Waltz  and  The Only Way to Paradise , who are anxious to read sequels! And her mystery fans are always urging her to write another book featuring her wacky genealogical sleuths, Alex and Briggie. Obviously, G. G. likes to genre hop! In addition to her fiction, she has written two nonfiction works. And she writes a twice-monthly column for the on-line magazine  Meridian  as well as being a guest columnist for the  Deseret News . She studied writing at Stanford University and received her master's degree at George Washington University. She lives with her husband, David, a lawyer and a writer, on the bench of the Wasatch Mountains in Utah. From her office she can see a beautiful valley, a lake, and another mountain range. She and David have three grown children and three wondrous grandchildren. After playing with, reading to, and doing crafts with her grandchildren, her favorite thing is traveling. She goes to Italy once a year for medicinal purposes (and research--read  The Only Way to Paradise ). Her favorite classic authors are Tolstoy, Charlotte Bronte, and Jane Austen. Her favorite contemporary authors are A. S. Byatt, John Fowles, Marisa de los Santos, Emily Giffin, and Candice Hern.
