I am Clara Ashford, enamoured with candlelit ballrooms, strolls through dew-covered gardens, and the stories that blossom between duty and desire.

Inspired by the sensitivity of Jane Austen and the romantic spirit of the Regency era, I write novels where emotions beat beneath the corset of social convention.

I believe that love -whether found in a stolen glance or a letter never sent- remains the most powerful story of all.
