"Wicked plots, noble knights and young love" Stephanie Nettell
Author description
Violet Needham was born in London but lived in Italy for much of her early life. This upbringing and her aristocratic background - her father was the illegitimate son of an Earl and her mother came from a titled family - doubtless contributed to the high romance of her novels. She was a prolific writer and inspired a passionate following amongst her readership.
