Call Me Duchess by Maggie Dove





Grippingly suspenseful and romantic, CALL ME DUCHESS, is a stunning, young woman’s journey to find love in 1870 London while a dashingly handsome chaperone, a heinous villain, and her own lofty aspirations stand in her way.

Latest Review for Angel of Windword!

"Maggie Dove draws the reader in from the very first sentence. As a historical romance, this book enables the reader to easily imagine themselves in Victorian France and England with descriptive prose and fluid dialect. Angelique is cleverly written, spirited and charming with a hint of mischief that makes her the perf...ect match for Nicholas Kent."

Why Be A Writer?

Because you’re burning up with stories and ideas you just have to get down on paper (virtual paper these days) or you’ll go mad–probably are a bit crazy anyway. I have this theory about writers, those who are on medication and those who should be. I am, but wasn’t for years.

At age twenty, I drew a picture of a clock with a dissatisfied face and angrily named it a ‘watch-gog’ because I felt that’s all I was doing, watching others live their… Continue

The Feel and Flavor of Old Homes And Historical Romance ENEMY OF THE KING

Mysterious old homes, shrouded mountains and valleys hidden between misty ridges; the lure of Eastern Woodland Indians and Scots-Irish settlers in colonial American…this is what I know, what I love. But in writing Enemy of the King, I spread beyond my Virginia home base and journeyed into the Carolinas at the height of the Revolution. Enemy of the King is my version of The Patriot with flavors of Daphne Dumaurier’s Rebecca.

Pleasant Grove, the… Continue

Into the Garden at Pleasant Grove With Meriwether and Jeremiah (Excerpt from ENEMY OF THE KING)

1780 South Carolina



Stone lions the size of wolfhounds sat on either side of the imposing front door as if to devour unwanted guests. Perhaps Jeremiah enjoyed their significance. He seldom entertained and seemed happier seated astride a horse than in the company of most ladies and gentlemen. He turned the marble knob and led Meriwether out onto the crescent-shaped balcony. He leaned momentarily on the iron railing. “Feel that… Continue
