At Your Pleasure is another tale of lovers separated – by politics and religion this time – but here the plot works beautifully, making the latest Meredith Duran a real treat.

An inability to communicate is almost always the recurring theme. Her other books include RITA award winner Fool Me Twice and her February 2017 release, A Lady's Code of Misconduct, which was called one of the best romances of the year by BookList and Amazon, and received starred reviews from Publishers Weekly and Kirkus, the latter of which opined: “This book weaves its spell so thoroughly that the most fortunate reader will be the one who has time to read the entire thing in one sitting.” Her next release, THE SINS OF LORD LOCKWOOD, hits the shelves on February 27, 2018.Lovers separated by treachery, war, conflicting ideals, and the like are among my least favorite plot devices because they’re so often accompanied by other big irritants.

She is the author of twelve novels, all published by Pocket Books.
