Author: Elizabeth Johns

Elizabeth Johns builds historical romances around interconnected families living through the Regency and Napoleonic periods. Seeking Redemption is the third book in her Loring-Abbott series and centres on Lady Lydia Markham and Nathaniel, Lord Fairmont. Their earlier attachment ended when Nathaniel joined Wellington's army, and the novel returns to them after years of war have changed his priorities and sharpened his remorse. Lydia, meanwhile, carries a secret that makes renewed contact necessary rather than merely sentimental. Johns places their personal reckoning against the military setting of the Hundred Days, using travel to the Continent and the approach of Waterloo to raise the stakes. The novel follows Surrender the Past and Seasons of Change, extending conflicts established elsewhere in the family series. Johns began publishing Regency romance after a career in the medical field, and her books combine courtship with themes of recovery, responsibility, and second chances.
