BIO

Candice Hern is the award-winning author of 14 historical romance novels set during the English Regency, a period she knows well through years of collecting antiques and fashion prints of the era.  She travels to England regularly, always in search of more historical and local color to help bring her books to life, and prides herself on the detailed research that goes into each novel. Her books have won praise for their "intelligence and elegant romantic sensibility" (Romantic Times) as well as "delicious wit and luscious sensuality" (Booklist). Her first book was published in 1995, the result of winning a writing contest.

Originally from Texas, Candice grew up in California and lives in San Francisco. She has degrees in Art History from the University of California. She spent many years in high tech marketing, specifically database marketing, and her last position was as Director of Marketing Operations for a software company. She now writes fulltime. Her award-winning website is often cited for its Collections and its Regency era information. It is the only author website listed among the online resources at the Jane Austen Centre in England.
