Lisa Kleypas: the reigning queen of historical romance who apparently never got the memo that Victorian England isn't a real estate option in today's market. With more swooning heroines and dashing heroes than you can shake a cravat at, Kleypas has penned dozens of novels, causing heart palpitations worldwide. When she's not busy scribbling about scandalous dukes and dappled corset drama, we assume she's stuck in a time warp somewhere between 1843 and a five-star Goodreads review. Her books have become the literary equivalent of a binge-worthy Netflix series – you know you should stop, but you just can’t help reading "one more chapter." Fans adore her, probably because she’s mastered the art of turning page-turners into bestselling gold, one steamy ballroom scene at a time.
