Do you think you will ever write more books set in Ancient Rome? I loved your Empress of Rome series, particularly because it was set during a period of Roman history that not a lot of historical fiction has previously covered. I would love to read your fictional take on, say, the Severan Dynasty. (Elagabalus would certainly make for an interesting character.....)

I would like to write more books set in ancient Rome someday. I'm not sure I'd go for the Severan dynasty, but Diocletian is a possibility! Or maybe something a bit earlier Empire, like Augustus...who knows? For the time being, though, I'm researching and enjoying 20th century history. So glad you've enjoyed my Rome series!

A small criticism one reviewer had was the authenticity of the language in that timeline : ie 1947 Charlie saying : "when a young woman in 1947 says "nice wheels" in reference to a car. And then back in 1915, writing about Folkestone and the refugees there, we are told that "more French and Belgian (was) heard on the docks than English". Belgian is a language?"... I also found 'baby blues' a surprise. Research ?

I'm obsessed with your book The Alice Network. So well written, I love how you also have a love story intertwined! It was a real page turner, I haven't read that good of a book in awhile. I hope you write more? I will be checking out your other books as well. I had no idea there really was an Alice Network and now I'm so intrigued to learn more! Love your writing style!!
