In case anyone doesn't know this already, all of the Timeless Quills authors LOVE romance and falling in love! Here's why
Jane Charles says: I am drawn to romances because of the power of the stories, to be swept away to another place, and most often another time. There is nothing like meeting characters who will do anything for those they love, whether it is family or their soul mate, and being invited into their world to share the ride.
In A Misguided Lord, my heroine will do anything to protect her family, even if it means marrying the wrong gentleman. It doesn't matter how happy, or unhappy she is, as long as her family is safe and in one home together. My hero knows exactly what he needs and the type of lady who should become his Countless. His life is orderly and a decades old scandle hidden from public censure. Everything is as it should be until the heroine careens into him, upsetting the perfect balance of his world and he relaizes just how misguided his life has been.

Catherine Gayle says: Romance takes the reader to the root of emotion. Love isn't the only emotion explored within a romance--you've also got fear and anger, sadness and joy, and so many others. But despite however many other emotions roil through the characters and the readers, love is always the one that wins out. In my latest novel, Pariah, both my hero and heroine are dealing with some rather traumatic events: he has PTSD, and she is caring for an aunt with dementia. Yet in the end, since it is a romance, we know they will come together to face life alongside one another.
Rose Gordon says: For as much as I love flawed characters, I love unique love stories just as much. I once heard there were only six plots for romance novels. That may be, but there are millions of characters and it's about how those two particular characters overcome their obstacles and find their way to love that keeps me reading and writing romances.
In my latest, His Contract Bride, the heroine is tricked to believe she's about to have the one thing all young ladies of her time period can only dream of: a love match. However, when she learns it was actually a match arranged to help further her father's social standing, she's devastated. In his quest to smooth things over and gain at least a friendship with her, the unsuspecting hero loses his heart. These two were both victims of their parents' doings, yet were able to find romance by suffering inhumanely at sporting events and having planned and unplanned adventures.

Ava Stone says: I believe in “True Love” and “Happily Ever After”. I always have. I like to read stories that will make me smile at the end, and won’t have me sobbing and sobbing and sobbing for hours on end. I mean, seriously, these days we can get that in real life without dedicating time and money to do so, right? That’s the wonderful thing about romance. In a few hundred pages, I can be transported to another time and place where I get to fall in love, and I’m promised a happily ever after at the end.
In My Favorite Major, Major Philip Moore returns from Waterloo a broken man, both physically and emotionally scarred. Philip first appeared in the pages of a previous novel, and he is probably the noblest hero I’ve ever written. At the opening of his book, he’s a man in desperate need of his own “Happily Ever After” and is, probably, the most deserving as well. After all he’s been through and endured, I was very happy to see him finally get a happy ending of his own.
