Instead of trying to find your perfect match in a dating app, we bring you the “Author-Reader Match" where we introduce you to authors you may fall in love with. It's our great pleasure to present Megan Frampton!
Writes:
In this delightful flip of a classic romance trope, Megan Frampton creates a handsome, witty, hero in need of a wealthy bride who meets his match in Lady Jane Capel, from A WICKED BARGAIN FOR THE DUKE. Perfect for fans of Sarah MacLean, Tessa Dare, and Eloisa James.
![Gentleman Seeks Bride: A Hazards of Dukes Novel by [Megan Frampton]](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51MjFukAlYL.jpg)
It’s a well-known fact that when a man is in search of a bride, a good dowry is never a hindrance.
Thomas Sharpe is handsome, well-bred, and desperately in need of a wealthy bride. His father has lost their income, his sister needs looking after, and so to save them all from a life of poverty he travels to London in search of an heiress.
Enter Lady Jane Capel. After her fiancé ended their engagement two years ago, Jane boldly left her parents’ home and moved in with her half-brother Percy. What does one more scandal matter to a family with such a curious reputation? Jane is independent, but not as well versed in life—and love—as she wants.
The two of them strike a deal: Thomas will show her all there is to know about the world —and intimacy—and Jane will help him find a bride. But the more time they spend together and the closer they get, the two of them soon realize that things aren’t so simple when it comes to men and women...
About:
Megan Frampton is on extroverted introvert who likes glitter, the color green, Richard Armitage, discussing the literary differences between Pride and Prejudice and Jane Eyre, and dancing. She dislikes nightgowns (PJs all the way!), Gose beers, magical realism, and people who think art shouldn’t be political.
What I’m looking for in my ideal reader match:
- Found family
- Hijinks in a hot balloon
- Voyeurism
- Heroines who make their own choices
- Stupidly good-looking heroes who are trying to do the right thing.
What to expect if we're compatible:
- Secret feminism
- Upending of power dynamics
- Lots of kissing. So much kissing.
- Frequent discussions on clothing, particularly when it comes to what the heroine is wearing.
My author bio:
Megan Frampton writes historical romance under her own name and romantic women's fiction as Megan Caldwell. She likes the color black, gin, dark-haired British men, and huge earrings, not in that order. She lives in Brooklyn, New York, with her husband and kid.

Megan Frampton’s love affair with books began when her gormless parents (not an ounce of gorm between them. And let’s not even mention feck) moved her to a remote town in New Hampshire where there was only one television station.
And then the TV broke.
She devoured every book of fiction in her well-read parents’ library, finding special joy in Barbara Cartland (she was young, remember), Georgette Heyer, C.S. Lewis, Anya Seton and the fairy tales collected and translated by Andrew Lang.
Megan majored in English literature at Barnard College with a double minor in political science and religion. She worked in the music industry for 15 years, editing and writing music reviews for a music industry trade magazine. Eventually, she became the Editor-in-Chief and went on to develop music industry conference programs.
Megan married one of her former interns and lives in Brooklyn, NY, with him and her son. Now that she stays at home, Megan has returned to reading and writing the fiction that was her first love. She is a member and President of the Beau Monde (2004-2005), the Regency chapter of the Romance Writers of America, and a member of the NYC chapter of the RWA as well.
