The Brazen Brides series spans over a decade of Cheryl Bolen’s career, with eight entries published between 2005 and 2017. The heroines share a willingness to push past Regency-era conventions, whether by posing as someone they are not (Counterfeit Countess) or by entering marriages for practical rather than romantic reasons (Marriage of Inconvenience, One Golden Ring).
Later entries like Oh What A Night, Miss Hastings’ Excellent London Adventure, and A Birmingham Family Christmas show the series growing to include holiday-themed stories and more adventurous plots. The Brazen Brides formula gives Bolen room to explore different types of unconventional women within the framework of Regency society.
