Historical Romance Author, Gail Whitiker
Hello, and welcome to my website!
Whether this is your first time paying a call, or a return visit to see what’s new, I hope you’ll take a few minutes to look around and become better acquainted with the stories I write, all of which are set in the Regency period; a time of dandies and demireps, of rakish heroes and the likes of Beau Brummell and Oscar Wilde. And, of course, the Prince Regent and his glittering court.

No Place for an Angel
(Third in the Gryphon Theatre Trilogy)
To the thousands of theatre-goers who flock to London’s Gryphon Theatre during the Season, Catherine Jones is a star. Dubbed the Angel of London and gifted with a rare singing voice, the virginal Welsh actress is a striking combination of innocence and sensuality. But Catherine is not an angel. She is a woman with a past; one she is desperate to keep hidden from London Society and in particular, from Lord Valbourg, a man who threatens everything she holds dear.
Valbourg can’t afford a dalliance with an actress. Heir to his father’s estate and guardian to his newly orphaned nephew, he is determined to lead an exemplary life. But his attraction to Catherine is powerful and when their lives collide in a most unexpected way, Valbourg is forced to make the most difficult decision of his life.

No Role for a Gentleman
(Second in the Gryphon Theatre Trilogy)
“All the world’s a stage, and all the
men and women merely players…”
Shakespearean hyperbole or a canny assessment of life? For Egyptian scholar, Laurence Bretton, the latter certainly rings true. When he takes up the role of fictitious playwright Valentine Lawe in order to protect his sister’s reputation, he has no idea the charade is going to turn his life upside down. Or that Joanna Northrup, the beautiful young woman he meets in a bookshop and who shares his passion for the past, isn’t who or what she seems.
As lies and misunderstandings abound, Laurence realizes he has to make a choice. Either continue the deception and keep safe his sister’s secret—or tell the truth and risk losing the woman he loves.

No Occupation for a Lady
At London’s elegant Gryphon Theatre, Valentine Lawe’s newest play opens to rave reviews. People can’t stop talking about the mysterious playwright who pens such brilliant social commentary yet who never appears in society.
But who is Valentine Lawe? And why is the dashing Alistair Devlin so determined to find out? Has it something to do with his growing interest in the beautiful but enigmatic Victoria Bretton—a young woman who spends more time at the Gryphon than is advisable and who seems equally determined to stay as far away from Devlin as possible?
