The Merry Men Series
Four men whose stories needed to be told.
This series started out as the stories of four good friends: Merry and Fungy, who are cousins, and Sin who went to school with them. Julian's story which starts off the series quickly becomes an integral member of the group.
But as frequently happens, there were many more stories than just those of my four heroes. First, there were the sisters of Rose Grace, the heroine of A Dandy in Disguise, who each needed their own story -- they're also known as the Grace Sisters Series. Then, there were the stories of the parents of each of my heroes, which were interesting on their own (I've written three of four, possibly five stories). They are all novellas, rather than full-length novels. I call them the Parent's Novellas.
All these stories and characters inhabit a Regency world of my own creation and I hope you'll enjoy reading their stories.
