Author: Katherine Bone

Katherine Bone places courtship amid the intrigue and maritime culture of Georgian and Regency Britain. Her author biography locates much of her fiction in Cornwall and traces her fascination with the years from 1795 to 1843, especially naval history, smugglers, and espionage. Pretty Little Lyon enters Dragonblade Publishing’s Lyon’s Den connected world. Its Georgian story follows Charlotta Walcot, whose obligations lead her to Mrs Bessie Dove-Lyon’s gaming establishment, and Lord Septimus Grey, an heir pressed by his father to marry. The shared setting lets Bone bring her established period interests into a broader sequence while keeping this couple’s predicament distinct. Elsewhere, her Nelson’s Tea series features women serving Admiral Nelson as spies, joining romantic plots to secrecy and wartime duty. These documented settings and series links present Bone as a period-romance novelist drawn to adventurous circumstances, social constraint, and characters who must balance affection against family or public responsibilities.
