August Jade Sterling

August Jade Sterling is allowed to live with her cat Sir Prince Charming in Minnesota.. She holds a graduate degree from the Maxwell School at Syracuse University. When not vacationing with her sister, she sings jazz. This is her first book in the American Duke series. "After reading and falling in love with the characters of many historical romance novels, I continuously felt something wasn't right. Why were all of the heroes and ladies white or blonde-haired with blue eyes? Simply put, there was a void and inaccurate betrayal of characters in historical romance novels. The world is a place where culture and the human race blends; books pave the way."
