Julia James

I live in England with my family. Mills & Boon romances were my first 'grown up' books I read as a teenager, alongside Georgette Heyer and Daphne du Maurier - and I've been reading them ever since!

I adore the English countryside - and the Welsh and the Scottish too, of course! It is a source of constant but ever-changing beauty, whatever the season, from the wild grandeur of the Caledonian Highlands to the cultivated farmland and woods of southern England, and a source of never-failing spiritual recharge. I love the history of these islands, from castles to cottages, and the rich tapestry of the changing historical periods, each with its own splendour and fascination.
But I love my European heritage, as well as my British heritage.
