Regency Christmas Wishes - Captain Grey's Christmas Proposal / Her Christmas Temptation / Awakening His Sleeping Beauty

I started writing Regencies because of interest in the Napoleonic Wars. I like writing about warfare at sea and ordinary people of the British Isles, rather than lords and ladies. In my spare time I like to read British crime fiction and history, particularly the U. S. Indian Wars. I currently live in Utah. I'm a former park ranger, and double Rita Award and Spur Award winner. I have five interesting children and four grands.
Favorite authors include Robert Crais and Richard Woodman. Christine Merrill wanted to be a writer for as long as she can remember. During a stint as a stay-at-home-mother, she decided it was time to "write that book." She could set her own hours and would never have to wear pantyhose to work! It was a slow start but she slogged onward and seven years later, she got the thrill of seeing her first book hit the bookstores.
Christine lives in Wisconsin with her family. Visit her website at: www.christine-merrill.com Janice Preston writes sensual, emotional and heartwarming historical romance. Although all her novels are standalone reads, she loves to write stories set in the same Regency world, and many of her books include book-hopping characters. When Janice isn't writing she enjoys reading, pottering in the garden when the sun is shining, and travelling when she can.
She fuels her imagination with endless cups of coffee, is far too keen on unhealthy food, and is an expert procrastinator.
