Hi, I'm Gaelen Foley, and I'm so glad you're here. I love entertaining readers with stories that take you away for a while into beautiful, exciting worlds where adventure and passion await. No matter where or when my books are set, they celebrate the power of love to heal and transform our lives. Thank you for your interest in my work! :)

Official Bio

​Noted for her "complex, subtly shaded characters, richly sensual love scenes, and elegantly fluid prose" (Booklist), New York Times, USA Today, and Publisher’s Weekly Bestselling author Gaelen Foley has written over twenty (and counting!) rich, bold historical romances set in Regency England and Napoleonic Europe. Since her debut in 1998, her books have been published in seventeen languages worldwide and have won numerous awards, including the National Readers' Choice Award, the Booksellers' Best, the Golden Leaf, the Award of Excellence, and the HOLT Medallion.
 
A versatile and hardworking writer, Gaelen’s passion for the craft of fiction keeps her exploring new creative ground. While continuing to entertain her Regency fans, she has branched out into contemporary small-town romance as well as fantasy romance. Since 2012, Gaelen has also been co-writing fantasy middle grade/children’s novels with her husband, a former teacher, under the penname E.G. Foley. The Lost Heir, Book 1 in their Gryphon Chronicles series, was a #1 Amazon Children’s Bestseller (and was optioned for a movie!).

Amazon hosted Eric and me as E.G. Foley at a media to-do in NYC with other successful indie children's authors. Here's me signing copies afterwards.

Mr. Bingley, I presume?
