I’m thrilled to welcome Clara Bennett to Mrs. Condit Reads Books today! Her newest historical romance, A Duke’s Unlikely Promise, transports readers to Regency England with elegance, wit, and heart.
Let’s get to know her a little better!
Q: What draws you to writing historical romance?
Clara Bennett:
I love the structure of historical society — the rules, the expectations, the constraints. It creates such rich tension for romance. When two characters fall in love despite social barriers, it makes their journey even more powerful.
Q: What makes A Duke’s Unlikely Promise special?
Clara Bennett:
This story focuses on a heroine who refuses to fit neatly into society’s expectations. She’s intelligent, independent, and determined to protect her family — even if it means challenging a very stubborn duke.
Q: How much research goes into your books?
Clara Bennett:
Quite a bit! I research clothing, customs, etiquette, and even the food. I want readers to feel immersed in the time period without overwhelming them with detail.
Q: Do you have a favorite character from this book?
Clara Bennett:
I’m very fond of the heroine’s grandmother. She provides humor, wisdom, and just enough mischief to keep things interesting.
Q: What are you working on next?
Clara Bennett:
Another Regency romance — this one centered around a marriage of convenience that turns unexpectedly tender.
Thank you, Clara, for visiting the blog today!
If you’re a fan of historical romance filled with strong heroines and slow-burn chemistry, this one should definitely be on your radar.
