Author Bio:

Esmerelda Jones

The fragrant summers of the Australian bush arose in me the earliest passion for the pleasures of life. Romance, beauty and love are arts to be courted, and in all these matters I write what I have experienced in the senses.

My childhood bedroom, a watercolour lavender, was heady with ambrosial writing, further spiced by desire. It is for those wanting to languish in fully ripe romance that I write. They will find in the daily rush and bleakness there exists a private boudoir of the mind; where vivid silk and subtle satins defuse our stress, and problems are eaten like fat mangoes.
