LAUREN ROYAL is a New York Times and USA Today bestselling author and founder of the Jewels of Historical Romance. Her "truly enchanting" historical romance novels have earned raves from reviewers including Publishers Weekly, who calls her "an impressive talent." Lauren's books have won many awards including Booklist's Top 10 Romance of the Year. Besides writing steamy romance on her own, she also co-writes sweet and clean historical romance with her daughter, Devon. Lauren lives in Southern California with her family and their constantly shedding cat. When she's not busy writing, she enjoys singing along (off-key) to Hamilton, dancing (badly), and (wasting time) watching HGTV.
