Alivia Fleur returns to the podcast to read a sample of her latest Victorian romance, BLUEPRINTS, BATTLELINES AND BALLROOMS. We talk about how her background in architecture inspired the occupation of the heroes of this novel, plus how she uses architecture to explore gender dynamics and class in her series about neighbors on a London street. She also shares her inspiration for Historical Romance Book Deals and why readers should be sure to subscribe to the free newsletter!
