She grew up in England, where she loved to read Regency romances and all of the books written by author Georgette Heyer. Galen.Miranda Neville is an English author of fiction specializing in the genre of romance. If this had been made into a movie, it would have gotten a rousing stand of ovation at the end. My adrenaline spiked, my heart raced, my shoulders shook with laughter and my eyes glinted with unshed tears for Sophia and Adrian's loss (I couldn't just fall apart in front of random strangers at Starbucks now, could I?). She made me care for the hero and heroine, although at times I wanted to shake each of them and scream 'fall in love already!', and loudly boo the villains trying to kill Adrian and Sophia. Galen has captured me from the first chapter until the last with her captivating mix of intrigue, sexiness (if you don't consider doing the sexy against an open window then I don't know what is) and fast paced storytelling. Who really is Sophia Galloway? Is she the super spy that goes by Agent Saint or the mousy, bespeckled, drab looking Lady Smythe? Who really is Adrian Galloway? Is he the Barbican group's greatest spy or the never at home, always on the go Lord Smythe? The answers to these questions can be found in Shana Galen's LORD AND LADY SPY. 'Vividly intense and totally absorbing.Shana Galen brings her characters to life through the expertise of her writing.' - A Romance Review 'Galen sets a quick pace that enthralls the reader from the first page.' - The Romance Studio Galen really knows how to wrench our hearts.' - History Undressed Until she discovers in the dark of night that he’s not who she thinks he is after all.Ĭelebrate the 80th birthday of Regency Romance with great books from Sourcebooks Casablanca! Now that the Napoleonic wars have come to an end, daring secret agent Lady Sophia Smythe can hardly bear the thought of returning home to her tedious husband. Lord Adrian Smythe may appear a perfectly boring gentleman, but he leads a thrilling life as one of England’s most preeminent spies, an identity so clandestine even his wife is unaware of it. No man can outsmart him, but she’s been outsmarting him for years
