About Jenny Hambly

I am Jenny Hambly. Traditional Regency romance author.

I can’t remember a time when I didn’t read. Any well-written book that would transport me to another world has always been my escape and, at times, salvation.

I love history and the Regency period in particular. I grew up on a diet of Jane Austen, Charlotte and Emily Bronte, and Georgette Heyer. Heyer, in particular, made a lasting impression on me, and I have read all her books to shreds!

I have always enjoyed communicating with others and qualified as a teacher before having a family (Alanah and William I am very proud of you!), gaining a first-class degree in literature and then becoming a tennis coach.

I feel extremely blessed to now be a full time author. I write traditional Regency romance novels. I have tried to stay true to the genre and time and produce compelling and entertaining stories that will leave you, the reader, feeling satisfied. I like to think my characters, though flawed, are likeable, strong, and true to the period.

I live by the sea in Plymouth, England, with my partner Dave. I like reading, sailing, wine, getting up early to watch the sunrise in summer, and long, quiet evenings by the wood burner in our cabin on the cliffs in Cornwall in winter.
