Hope Tarr is the author of three historical romances to date including Tempting, a "My Fair Lady" story with a twist and a past nominee for Romantic Times Book Club Reviewers Choice Award Nominee for Best Innovative Historical Romance. Hope's other books, My Lord Jack and A Rogue's Pleasure, have garnered multiple contest awards and award nominations. The latter include Reviewers International Organization's Dorothy Parker Award and RT Book Club's Best First Historical Romance. Hope is at work on a contemporary romance set in Washington, DC and New York and an historical romance trilogy set in 1890s London. When not writing or pursuing her other passion—rescuing, spaying/neutering and re-homing stray and feral cats, Hope likes to log in time rocking on her front porch in historic Fredericksburg, VA. Look for Hope's next historical romance, Vanquished, the first in her new "Men of Roxbury House" trilogy, in bookstores starting July 2006.
