Lillian Shelley is a pseudonym of Shelley Koppell, who has been a writer for over twenty years. She turned her love of British history and Jane Austen into two historical novels: The Belle of Bath and The Secret Heiress. She met her husband, an Englishman, while researching The Belle of Bath. Koppell now writes nonfiction, specializing in medical topics, but she never lost her love for romance. She received her bachelor of arts degree from Barnard College and her master of arts from New York University. Her books combine research done by her mother, Lillian Koppell, a historian (hence the penname Lillian Shelley), and the author’s own literary background.
