About the Author

Born in New England, Hannah Howell’s maternal family has been in this country since 1630. Her father’s side of the family is half Nova Scotian and half English. It was on a trip to England to meet her relatives that Hannah met her husband-to-be. She bought him a drink in a pub and the rest is history. They have been married for more than 38 years and have two sons and several grandchildren. Her hobbies include caring for her five cats, gardening, crocheting, and playing the piano.

Howells’ first book was published in 1988. After 10 years of writing western, English and Scottish historical romances, she has focused on developing the stories of the Scottish Murray clan and plans to write one every year.
