About meGrace Elliot leads a double life as a veterinarian by day and author of historical romance by night. Grace lives near London and is addicted to cats, acting as housekeeping staff to five mischievous moggies.
Grace believes intelligent people need romantic fiction in their lives as an antidote to the modern world and as an avid reader of historicals she turned to writing as a release from the emotionally draining side of veterinary work. Her second novel ‘Eulogy’s Secret’ is a story of greed, blackmail and a stolen identity.
Grace's published works include 'A Dead Man's Debt' and 'Eulogy's Secret' (both historical romance) and a non-fiction book 'Cat Pies - feline historical trivia.'

About my libraryThe Romance Review award 'A Dead Man's Debt' KEEPER status.

Ultimately, the characters are delightful. You will not find two individuals who are more honest and truthful with one another. They both share a love of art, which brings them close together and exposes their feelings to one another. It is a refreshing change of pace from some historical romances where the silence of romantic feelings is upheld until the end. A Dead Man¡¯s Debt is also passionate. It is not blatantly sexy but a wonderful buildup of passion and sexual tension that true romance fans will love. Their attraction is about speaking volumes with a heated glance, or a simple brush of the hand. It is earth shattering, undeniable and will steal your breath away.

Ms Elliot is a wonderful talent, indeed. Not only is her debut story well written, but she magically weaves a creative and intelligent story that will entertain you from the first page until the last. She is a skilled storyteller that fills her novels with page-turning drama and breathtaking sensuality. Grace Elliot is an author to remember where you will anticipate any and all future novels.

If you have any appreciation for historical romance, you will not only enjoy this novel immensely, but will want to make a space for it on your keeper shelf! A Dead Man¡¯s Debt will charm you, surprise you, entertain you...and by the end, will warm your heart with the overall beauty of this story.

Hi Grace, I am sorry it took me so long to get back to you, I must have archived my posts without seeing yours among them. Thanks for the request and Happy Reading!

Judy
Hi! Thank you for the friendship request. I love the photo with the cat. It reminds me of one of our cats when I was a teenager. She was named Panda and was a real cuddly cat!
Grace, I'm assuming that you are a small animal vet and not a "James Herriot" type vet. The picture of your cat on the profile page is lovely, and I could fall in love very quickly, though my pet might be jealous.

I should have one of those bumper stickers that read "Support your local vet, buy an English Bulldog." Our first bully, Zach, lived for fourteen years, which I think says just how well he was cared for and loved. Chloe, our second bulldog, like our first, makes us laugh every day and is now seven years old. We've been through surgery with both of them - Zach taught us that those indestructible Kong toys are no match for a determined bulldog, and Chloe was turning blue from lack of oxygen and needed flaps of skin removed to open up her airway. She is doing fine now, but refuses to walk far, so we have to be careful not to overfeed her or she gets too chubby real fast. Now we just deal with the skin and ear problems so common to bulldogs. We know our vet well!
Sorry, I speak American English, . We know that what you call biscuits are really cookies, and truly I've never heard hobnob used for anything other than fraternizing or "hanging out with". Don't get me started on how you spell a lot of words wrong too!

Don't mind me, all in good fun. Viva la difference!
Yes, LT takes a while to get used to, in my case a month or two and I'm still finding a few surprises. I learned most things by reading the forums, especially the LT ones where different features are discussed. The longer I'm here, the more I like it. Chatting about romance novels is a favorite pastime.

I'm excited for you about your book. I'll watch the Hobnob forum to see if you have any threads going to promote and discuss the book. The review on your profile page is awesome.
This weeks historical saying is "putting the cart before the horse."

I’m sure you’re familiar the expression ‘putting the cart before the horse’. But this saying, as well as describing a world turned upside down, in the 16th century was also a timely warning against rebellion.
