Author bio

Anne Gracie is an Australian writer of historical romance whose books are mostly set in Regency England, even though her own childhood was anything but settled. Because of her father's work, she grew up moving from place to place and lived in Australia, Scotland, Malaysia, and Greece, learning early how different people can feel familiar once stories enter the room.

Books were constant. She has written about a home full of animals, parents who were both teachers, long road trips, and being the new girl at six different schools in twelve years. Reading became the steady thing, and she tore through whatever she could find, from children's classics to Jane Austen, Dickens, Georgette Heyer, and many others.

She was a storyteller before she ever thought of herself as a novelist.

After university she became a teacher herself, working with teenagers and later adults, and she also worked as a counselor. For a long time she encouraged other people to write while barely making time for her own fiction. A year of solo backpacking changed that, and she began her first novel by hand in notebooks bought in places like Quebec, Spain, Greece, and Indonesia.

That first manuscript never left the notebooks, but the writing bug did not let go.

Her published career began with books such as Gallant Waif, Tallie's Knight, and An Honorable Thief. Later came the novels many readers now reach for first, including The Perfect Rake, The Stolen Princess, The Autumn Bride, and Marry in Haste. People tend to come to Anne Gracie for the wit and warmth, then stay for the loyal families, stubborn heroines, wounded soldiers, and marriages that start as practical bargains and turn into real partnerships.

She returns again and again to a few favorite patterns, women helping women, outsiders finding a home, children and older relatives who matter to the plot, and men trying to learn how to live after war or disappointment. Her settings may include London ballrooms and country houses, but they also make room for ruined households, long recoveries, and the small daily business of trust. That mix keeps the books romantic without making them feel weightless.

Over the years she has won major romance awards in Australia and has been a finalist several times for the RITA Awards in the United States. Her books have been translated widely, and she has also written books for adults who are just learning to read, which fits with her long interest in literacy. She lives in Melbourne, writes full time, and still gives occasional talks and workshops on writing.
