Jillian Hunter is a Welsh-American writer who was born in Scotland and spent her early years in London, her favorite place in the world. She lives in Southern California with her husband, their three children, a pug and a poodle. She has published seventeen historical romances and one novella. Her passions are her family, writing, midnight gardening, and lost causes. She is a devoted Anglophile who loves her afternoon tea and the royals. A woman of unappreciated talents, she can warp through Hyrule, explain how Pokemon evolve, and sing along with every song played on Radio Disney in the past two years. Her last book, THE DEVILISH PLEASURES OF A DUKE, debuted on the USA Today list at #42 and on the NYT extended list at #23. All six of her Boscastle books have become national bestsellers and have gone into multiple reprintings. She is deeply grateful to every one of her readers who enjoy the passionate Boscastle family as much as she does.
