Emily Royal

USA Today bestselling author Emily Royal is a mathematics geek who grew up in Sussex, England, and has always had a passion for romance and bad boy heroes in need of redemption. After graduating from Oxford and enjoying a brief dream of becoming a pilot, she started a career in financial services.

She now lives in rural Scotland with her husband, two daughters, and a menagerie of pets including Twinkle, an attention-seeking boa constrictor. When not working on algebra, writing, or keeping Twinkle from slithering over her keyboard, Emily enjoys painting, playing the piano, and can often be found wandering in the Highlands of Scotland looking for inspiration.
