Catherine Lloyd has explored all shades of romance from small town romantic comedy to medieval adventure romance to the gritty dark love stories of Victorian Age villains. In Lloyd's novels, the journey belongs to the heroine as her spiritual, physical and intellectual metal is tested by the man she grows to love. The author has two grown children, two stepdaughters, a cat named Harry (who thinks he's a dog) and five grandsons. She lives with her long-suffering spouse in the country where she enjoys having no hobbies and writes full time.
