Ashlyn Montgomery resides in Johannesburg, South Africa. She completed her Bachelor of Arts at Rhodes University, majoring in English Lit and International Relations, with a few years of journalism here and there. Currently she teaches English and History to learners in a small private Catholic school.

She adores the outdoors and embarks on hikes as often as she can. Miss Montgomery harbours a love for her continent, Africa, and its many eccentricities, its weather and its people. When she is not exploring her beautiful country or educating unruly children, she is daydreaming, indulging her love of a good wine, or annoying her family and friends. Of course, she adores reading and (obviously) writing.

Her heroes are dreamy and her heroines hopelessly swept away by the men in their lives. Inspired by romance and (mostly) the decadence of Regency England, Miss Montgomery loves to lose herself in scandalous liaisons and smouldering biceps, manipulating the time with humorous twists of her own.
