Their emotional and dramatic journeys to their happily ever after will have you hooked from the beginning. You’ll find a range of sensuality levels in this series, so whether you’re looking for the tingling sensation you experience when a wet-shirted Mr Darcy rises from the lake, or the explicit bedroom romps of Tudor times, there’s something for everyone!

What are popular tropes in our Historical series?

Featured in Mills & Boon Historical…you’ll find Regency rakes with wicked glints in their eyes, muscled warriors brandishing swords, and gorgeous kilted Highlanders. Our heroines range from spirited Viking shield-maidens, to scarred reclusive spinsters, and capable penniless governesses. We have spies in royal courts, Roman gladiators, and even Egyptian servants trapped in pyramids.
