2. If you could go to tea with one of the characters in To Love a Spy, who would it be and why?
I would love to have lunch with Lord Camden. Not only is he a handsome hero, but he worked undercover in France for seven years before returning to England. He would have the most amazing stories! After all, being a spy is fascinating. Being a good-looking Lord is just a bonus!
 
3. What inspired the idea for To Love a Spy?
After writing the first two books of the series, it became clear that Kate needed her own happy ending. She felt she was the ignorant sister, disrespectful daughter, and a disobedient wife. Regardless of her trauma, the French spies were up to their usual tricks. They had infiltrated Parliament and were attempting to pass a bill that would end all funding for the war against France.
 
4. What do you want readers to take away from reading To Love a Spy?
Hope. Strength. Love. Also, ladies don’t always need dashingly handsome lords to rescue them; they can save themselves.
 
5. What is your current WIP?  What can you tell us about this project?
A Tangled Ruse, book #4 of The Beckett Files Series. It is in the hands of my editor and it is amazing! It continues the French story arc and has a swoony love story. It revolves around Lady Rachel and Eliza’s older brother, Lord Downshire. Plus, it is based in Rockcliffe, Scotland.
