Sally Forbes is an English author of romance books with more than a dozen books under her name. She always wanted to write romance books right from a young age, thanks to the inspiration she received from her grandmother, which enabled her to turn her hobby into a professional career. Sally was born in the United Kingdom to a British and an American father. At ten years old, her family relocated to Chicago, where she was able to make her dream come true by studying literature at university.
Sally lives with her loving husband and their two daughters. The couple also owns a Labrador, which is a part of the family. When not writing, you will find Sally spending memorable time with her family. She is an avid fan of arts, especially opera and theater.
A Christmas Ball to Remember is the first novel in the Proposals During Christmastide series by Sally Forbes. Gloria Munday’s life takes an unexpected turn when her father, Mr. Munday, dies in a mining accident at the family-owned mines. This accident not only leaves numerous workers injured but also thrusts Gloria and her mother into the daunting role of managing their family’s affairs. In the wake of the accident, the community banded together in a concerted effort to locate and aid the injured workers.
As the Christmas season approaches, an air of resilience mixes with the festive spirit. People are trying to piece their lives back together amidst the holiday cheer. In this challenging time, Gloria is searching for a reliable and grounded man to marry. She seeks someone who can provide stability and take charge of her family’s home and business matters. This proves to be a daunting task.
Gloria meets Richard. He is strikingly handsome, possesses a charming and outgoing personality, and is well-educated. His father, an Earl, comes from a wealthy background. With his sophisticated upbringing, Richard seems capable of handling the business, except for his penchant for nightlife and drinking. As Gloria spends more time with Richard, she feels a spark of love. His presence stirs something within her, suggesting a possibility of a future together. However, she can’t help but wonder about the implications of his drinking habits. This lingering concern adds a layer of complexity to her decision as she weighs the potential of this budding romance against the responsibilities awaiting her in managing her family’s legacy.
Sally Forbes excels in character development, painting each character with vivid detail and distinct personalities that truly come to life. The readers are taken on a journey filled with unexpected twists and turns, keeping them on the edge of their seats. The story masterfully blends mystery and historical romance, creating a rich and engaging tapestry of events. Each character faces challenges and dilemmas, adding depth and complexity to the narrative. These obstacles are intricately woven into the plot, building suspense and intrigue as the story progresses towards a wedding that seems increasingly complicated.
Sally Forbes is not just an author; she is a skilled storyteller who has crafted a novel that is both engaging and true to its historical period. The book is a clean, well-researched historical romance that pays homage to the era it is set in. This level of authenticity adds depth and realism to the story. Whether you’re a romance historical fiction fan or just looking for a well-written story with compelling characters, A Christmas Ball to Remember is a must-read.
Falling for the Guarded Duke is the first novel in the Falling for Dashing Dukes series by Sally Forbes. Once accustomed to a life of comfort and privilege, Olivia Heywood has come to terms with a starkly different reality. Just a year after her father’s passing, The Earl of Shalestone, Olivia finds herself grappling with a burdensome legacy of overwhelming debts. Her once secure world has turned upside down, leaving her to face the prospect of a life as a spinster.
Determined to shield her sister from a similar plight, Olivia is fiercely committed to finding a way out of their financial woes. In this desperate search for a solution, she stumbles upon an unexpected opportunity. A position as a dance instructor for a wealthy Marquess presents itself, seemingly a beacon of hope in her sea of troubles.
Olivia sees this as a job and a potential turning point. It could be the key to resolving her financial crisis, offering a chance to regain stability in their lives. With this role, Olivia enters a new world that challenges her notions of love and duty. In navigating this new environment, she must balance the practicalities of her situation with the stirrings of her heart, discovering that true love is not always where or what one expects. This journey promises to be more than just a path to financial security—it may also lead Olivia to unexpected personal revelations and the possibility of a love that transcends appearances and social expectations.
Alexander Sedgewick, the Marquess of Lovewell, stands on the brink of inheriting the prestigious dukedom of Bembridge. Born with limited vision, he navigated a world shrouded in near-darkness. Despite his noble status, Alexander’s life has not been without its trials. A previous attempt at romance ended in failure, and a socially disastrous London Season led him to retreat to the countryside’s quiet, away from society’s scrutinizing eyes.
His peaceful existence, however, is disrupted when his father falls gravely ill. This unfortunate turn of events compels Alexander to confront his greatest fear: re-entering the demanding social whirl of the London Season. In this reluctant return to society, his path crosses with Olivia Heywood, a young and determined dance instructor.
As their relationship deepens, both Olivia and Alexander are confronted with their fears. Olivia, struggling with her family’s financial burdens and the responsibility towards her sister, finds solace and strength in Alexander’s company. Meanwhile, Alexander grapples with the vulnerabilities his near-blindness brings and the societal pressures of his impending dukedom. The question that looms over them is whether their burgeoning love can withstand the trials and tribulations of their respective worlds. Can they overcome the obstacles that fate has placed in their path, or will these challenges prove too great, tearing apart the love that has begun to blossom between them?
