Kathy L. Wheeler writes across several romance categories, from early nineteenth-century London drawing rooms to modern offices and small-town America. She’s best known for two main strands of her work: Regency romance, including the Rebel Lords of London and Martini Club 4 series, and fairy-tale retellings, where her seven-book Cinderella series reimagines the classic story in different settings and time periods.
Her historical western Mail Order Bride series goes back to her earliest published fiction from 1998, and the books in that collection mix frontier hardship with romance. The Gothic series, A World of Gothic, takes a darker turn, with stories built around haunted settings and historical suspense. The Weatherford Sisters Mysteries add a cozy mystery thread to her catalog.
Wheeler is also a frequent contributor to multi-author anthologies and shared-world projects, including the Gaming Hell Christmas series of Regency holiday anthologies. With work spanning from the late 1990s to the present, her back catalog is large enough that most romance readers will find at least two or three series worth trying.
