Jo Beverley's Bio
Passed away May 23, 2016.
Jo Beverley is one the few authors writing English-set historical romance who is English. She was born and raised in England, and has a degree in English history from Keele University in Staffordshire. She and her husband emigrated to Canada, but have now returned to England. They have two sons.
Though Jo started to write as a young child, it was only in the eighties that she began to think that it was something ordinary people could do, and after a talk at a local library, she settled to seriously writing her first historical romance.
Now, she is the author of over thirty romance novels and
many novellas — see
Jo Beverley’s booklist which have brought her
many awards, including five RITA awards from the Romance Writers of
America and awards from Romantic Times
including two Career Achievement awards. She is a member of
the RWA Honor Roll, and the RWA Hall of Fame.
