About Cheryl Bolen

When she is not writing her novels, she loves reading about dead English women, traveling to England, and watching the UT Longhorns. While it does seem like she achieved success really fast, nothing could be further from the truth. Cheryl Bolen was driven to pen historical romances set in the Regency era after the fourth manuscript she had written won many contests but publishers refused to publish it. Cheryl Bolen’s novel “The Bride Wore Blue” introduces Thomas Moreland. He has been dreaming Of Felicity Harrison, a young and beautiful noblewoman who saved him from death. “With His Ring” by Cheryl Bolen is another interesting novel in “The Brides of Bath” series. Rising to prominence with the Publication Order of The Beresford Adventures Books series, Cheryl Bolen has since expanded their repertoire to include numerous successful works across various genres. Their writing style, characterized by compelling narratives and memorable characters, has earned them a dedicated global readership with millions of fans worldwide.
