A Note To My Readers

Welcome to the World of Koz

Where history meets heightened drama, emotions run deep, and sometimes…things get a little ridiculous (especially at the Chesterfield Ball).

Here’s what to expect: I’ve been called “a fresh take” with “an entertainingly modern voice in a historical world.” While I dive into history to create a rich backdrop (you’ll find some research at the end), if you’re expecting Jane Austen’s prose, you won’t find it here. But if you love historical romance with a modern flair, you’re in the right place.

Historical romance is a space for all kinds of stories that allow us to explore characters, emotions, and moments that resonate with us. It will always be a fantasy of sorts. After all, we can accept the endless supply of sexy dukes, rakes who never get syphilis, or the person who is 10th in line inheriting when everyone before them suddenly dies.

Just like contemporary romance, where characters get kidnapped by a mafia boss and end up his wife, or fall for their assassin (I don’t know about you, but I’ve never been there), fiction allows us to stretch reality. It’s about the what if. And that’s where the fun is.

In my world, love triumphs no matter the character—my stories champion feminism, sexual empowerment, LGBTQ+ positivity, neurodivergence, and mental health awareness. Love has always found a way, and in my stories, those barriers are always broken.

If my style sounds like something you’d enjoy, I invite you to step into this fantasy world with me and indulge in a little escape. Grab your wine (or drink of choice) and let’s have some fun!

Happy reading!
