Dear Reader:The Deception first appeared in April 1983 as a Signet Regency with the title An Intimate Deception. I completely rewrote the story in 1998 so that it’s now a full-bodied historical romance. It has a brand-new beginning and a brand-new ending, and I improved everything in between to make it richer, bolder, more fun, and more adventurous.The Duke of Portsmouth offers an impecunious half-French relative a job as his young son’s nanny. What he quickly discovers is that he wants her, badly. What he discovers far more slowly is that she isn’t at all what she seems.Evangeline de Beauchamps is in way over her head. She has far more to cope with than a nineteen-year-old virgin should ever have. To top it all off, she must play an experienced widow with a man who knows women as well as he knows his horses, or so he thinks.You’ll see Phillip and Sabrina Mercerault from The Offer and hear more about the famous cat races of southern England.Write me and let me know what you think of The Deception.Catherine Coulter

About the Author
If you could begin you full time job at 7:30 a.m. and be completed for the day by 11:00, wouldn't that be a great job? American author, Catherine Coulter has her dream job with just that schedule. She begins every morning at 6:30 a.m. checking and answering her emails, and begins writing at 7:30 a.m. After writing her quota for the day, she finishes at 11:00! Coulter usually plans to write one suspense novel and one historical romance novel each year.
Coulter began her career as a speech writer for an executive on Wall Street while her husband was a medical student. She did a lot of reading herself to fill her time as he studied or was on duty. During one particular reading episode, she got so aggravated by the lack of good writing in the book she was reading, that she threw it across the room. As she did this, she yelled, I could do so much better than that! Her husband said, then go ahead, prove it! Thus began a career that has led her to writing over fifty books, with 42 consecutive novels on the New York Times best seller list. Among them: The Cove, The Maze, The Target, The Edge, Riptide, Knockout, Hemlock Bay, Blindside, and many others in her suspense thriller series.
Coulter currently resides in Marin County, California just across the Golden Gate Bridge, with her husband and their three cats. They enjoy travel, skiing, and she is still a very avid reader.
