Fil Reid (Author)
ENGLISHFil Reid lives four miles from the sea in Cornwall with her husband and a rescue dog from Romania called Bella. Her books have been published by Dragonblade in the US since she won their Write Stuff competition. Her first six books comprise the Guinevere series - an innovative retelling of the Arthurian legend from the point of view of a modern origin Guinevere. Her short stories have been shortlisted in several competitions and won a few prizes. She has a new series set in Cornwall coming out this year, starting with The Cornish Mermaid.Apart from writing, the great love of her life has always been horses, and when she was younger she worked with them for a number of years - on the stud attached to Highclere Castle (where Downton Abbey was filmed), as a stable girl in a flat racing yard (when she was young, brave and thin), and in a riding school. She also ran her own riding school when her children were small. She speaks fluent French after having lived there for ten years, after which she lived on a widebeam canal boat before her move to Cornwall. One of the things she loves to do is to visit the sites she uses in her stories. However, she has acrophobia, a morbid fear of heights, so one or two places are out of reach to her. Too scary! She's been fascinated by all things Arthurian since she was a small child and saw the Disney film The Sword in the Stone, but didn't find out until she was an adult that she has Asperger’s Syndrome (as do two of her sons). She now believes her ASD accounts for her obsessions with both horses and King Arthur. Read more about this authorRead less about this author

Impressionable and headstrong Ysella Carlyon, younger sister of Kit Carlyon, Viscount Ormonde, makes her long-awaited debut in London Society and is swept off her feet by the dashingly handsome Captain Oliver Featherstone. Who wouldn't be? But both her mother and brother suspect he is a philandering adventurer in search of an heiress, and they disapprove of the liaison.

Part way through the Season, news comes that Kit's wife has been taken ill, and Ysella has to return with her mother to Ormonde Abbey in Wiltshire. But she's determined not to abandon Oliver, and invites him to visit her there.

Together, they hatch a plan to thwart her family's disapproval and elope to Gretna Green. To Ysella, it's just a big adventure to enjoy, but she's soon to discover the realities of what she's committed herself to, and it's not nearly so much fun as she thought it would be.

At Ormonde, Kit's land agent and childhood friend, the stalwart and faithful Sam Beauchamp, has long been nurturing a love for Ysella that he believes will always go unrequited. Until he and Kit have to set off in pursuit of the eloping lovers, and something Sam has always dreamed might happen might come true.

But is it what either of them truly want? And can Ysella come to love Sam in the way he longs for her to do?The Cornish Ladies SeriesBook 1 - The Cornish MermaidBook 2 - The Cornish BrideBook 3 - The Cornish InheritanceBook 4 - The Cornish Widow. .
