Hi! So glad you found me here on myspace. The first question every asks is "What is next?" Well, glad you asked that. If you have loved my Bachelor Chronicles series, then you are going to love my new series of matchmaking romances about the Standon widows. Three widows, all of whom were married to the various heirs of the Duke of Hollindrake. Now they not only share the same title, they also have to share the same house. The only escape? Get married! The first book, How I Met My Countess, arrives on shelves December 29th. If you loved the Earl of Clifton from This Rake of Mine, discover how he met his perfect countess and nearly lost her. Then it is ducal madness when the second Lady Standon sets her cap to marry a duke, in Mad About the Duke, coming late 2010. Watch my website and blog at ElizabethBoyle.com for all the details and inside scoop.

Since 1996 when I sold my first book, I've had lots of dreams come true, including winning the RWA RITA award (the Oscars of romance novels) and last fall, Love Letters from A Duke make the NY Times Extended Bestseller list. Some of my favorite moments have been meeting some of my heroes, including Nora Roberts, Julia Quinn, and so many others, it is hard to list them all.

Visit my author website, ElizabethBoyle.com to get all the scoop on my books, blog and goings on.

Since I write Regency set historicals this means I get to spend most of my time day dreaming about Mr. Darcy! I'm also a member of the Jane Austen Society of North America, which might mean that I am either a) really geeky or b)believe that one day the aforementioned Mr. D will show up at one of the meetings.

Besides being a writer, I am also a mom--with two wonderful boys, one of whom has autism. I share this because I hope that the more people know about autism the more they will support research into this heart-wrenching disease. Please, if you know someone whose child has autism, reach out to them today and offer them your love, support and understanding--maybe even just a few hours of babysitting--you don't know how much this will mean to them.

I've lived all my life in the Pacific Northwest, love the rain, green trees, the smell of salt water. Next to that, I love knitting and traveling.

On Knittting:
I am a voracious knitter. I'm on Ravelry as Elizbo, and have a knitting blog, Knit the Stash. Do you knit? Oh, do friend me over on Ravelry and tell me all about your latest project--I love seeing what other people are making.

Knitters, readers, librarians, and booksellers from all over! Did you know my books have been published in multiple languages, including French, Italian, German, Russian, Czech, Japanese, Dutch, Norwegian, and Romanian and that my blog has been visited by readers and fans from over 90 countries, proving that everyone loves a happy ending, don't you?!
