3 Things You Didn't Know About A Spy's Devotion
from Melanie Dickerson
1. Julia Grey, the heroine for A Spy’s Devotion was inspired by the Jane Austen characters Jane Fairfax from Emma and Fanny Price from Mansfield Park, her situation in life is similar to theirs. Julia is a spunkier version of them.
2. I was terrified to write a Regency novel for fear I would get called out by all the rabid Regency historians if I made a research mistake.
3. I overcame my fear after re-reading all 6 Jane Austen novels in a 6-month period, wherein I got the idea for my Regency heroine.

ABOUT THE BOOK
In England’s Regency era, manners and elegance reign in public life—but behind closed doors treason and tawdriness thrive. Nicholas Langdon is no stranger to reserved civility or bloody barbarity. After suffering a battlefield injury, the wealthy, well-connected British officer returns home to heal—and to fulfill a dying soldier’s last wish by delivering his coded diary.
At the home of the Wilherns, one of England’s most powerful families, Langdon attends a lavish ball where he meets their beautiful and intelligent ward, Julia Grey. Determined to maintain propriety, he keeps his distance—until the diary is stolen and all clues lead to Julia’s guardian. As Langdon traces an evil plot that could be the nation’s undoing, he grows ever more intrigued by the lovely young woman. And when Julia realizes that England—and the man she is falling in love with—need her help, she finds herself caught in the fray. Will the two succumb to their attraction while fighting to save their country?
