Meda regarded him silently. “What is ‘Dev’ short for?” “Devlyn.” He laughed half-heartedly. “It means brave. Or misfortune. Take your pick.” And that just about sums up Dev Geary, former Keeper and reluctant Watcher. This hunk and his Harley will take on the human realm in the seven days he’s been given to save his clan—and conquer the very thing that killed him. I enjoyed the challenge of crafting Dev. He’s a bit of an anti-hero—he’s belligerent, hell bent on his own agenda, an opportunist, a unique blend of strengths and vulnerabilities. His catch phrase and philosophy on life is to be ‘between the inches’, or to embrace his death wish. It’s a fine line between thrills and terror, and it’s the only place where he can feel alive, free from the darkness that lives inside him. Free from the secrets and shame he suffers. Combine all that angst with some super human powers, and you’ve got yourself a hard ass hottie, fiercely determined to guard and rescue humans.

Hello Fresh Fiction! Thank you for inviting me to celebrate my newest release, REAL EARLS BREAK THE RULE. It’s the second book in my Infamous Somertons series about the three daughters of an infamous art forger. I’m often asked where I get the ideas for my historical romances.

Of course, this talent has gotten her in serious trouble in the past. But this time, she’s truly put to the test when the handsome rogue, Brandon St. Clair—the Earl of Vale—asks her to paint his portrait in secret during a house party in the country. I researched female artists when I plotted the novel. Amelia was partly inspired by a French female portrait painter, Élisabeth Vigée…
