INTRIGUE. TENSION. LOVE AFFAIRS:

In The Historical Romance series, a set of stand-alone novels, Vivian Stuart builds her compelling narratives around the dramatic lives of sea captains, nurses, surgeons, and members of the aristocracy.

Stuart takes us back to the societies of the 20th century, drawing on her own experience of places across Australia, India, East Asia, and the Middle East.

“Let’s get engaged — just temporarily!”

It had seemed a good solution when Jill suggested it. Ninian Moray had returned home after being declared officially dead for two years — to find his twin brother now married to Ninian’s former fiancée. Also, Jill needed a face-saver for a problem of her own.

But somehow or other, what was to have been an unsentimental alliance on both sides didn’t turn out that way.

Vivian Stuart was a British writer and during her writing career she had more than 70 books published in Australia, USA and the UK.

Born in Berkshire in England, she spent most of her youth in Burma and India, and later lived in Hungary and Australia. At the age of thirty-five she began to write romantic fiction but soon devoted her attention to military and historical novels.
