Eileen Putman is the author of a dozen British historical and Regency romances. Her love of England's Regency period (1811-1820) has inspired her research trips to England, Ireland, Wales, Scotland, France and other countries -- there being no substitute for stepping on the soil that Beau Brummell and his champagne-polished Hessians once trod. Her new release is "Lord Shallow," Book 2 in the Maitland's Rogues series of Regency historical romances.
