About this book

An Honorable Promise Lord Adam Calthorpe, 30, had been rash in his promise to look out for a fellow soldier's sister before the soldier was killed at the battle of Waterloo. For Miss Katherine Payne, 21, was a golden-eyed shrew who took genuine delight in flouting Adam's authority at every turn. Surely bringing her to stay with his mother for the Season would absolve him of his responsibilities--though he sincerely doubted such a headstrong young woman would ever find herself a husband in the marriage mart. But when an unscrupulous cousin starts pursuing Katherine, Adam comes to realize that fulfilling his promise might actually involve marrying her himself....

About Unknown Author

Sylvia is a great reader, whose preference in fiction is for thrillers and historical romances. She married Simon Andrew, the boy next door, and they have one daughter, Catherine, who is married and works in London. Catherine lives in Maidenhead quite near the river, and they have a small house in Normandy, which they visit whenever they can. They are great travelers — from a shopping weekend in Paris to a three week tour of Vietnam on a bicycle! They both took early retirement and now live in the West Country with their dog and cat. Simon is an active town councillor in Crewkerne, and very well-known there. Until Sylvia retired she was busy to write, Teaching full-time as vice principal of a large comprehensive sixth form college, while also running a house and a family didn't really give her much time. She never attempted to have anything published before she sent in her first historical romance to Mills & Boon, in the days when the series was called "Masquerade." She was somewhat flabbergasted — though absolutely delighted — when it was accepted. Perdita first appeared in 1991, and she is still surprised at the idea of herself as a writer.
