Top Regency Romance Authors

February 7, 2020 by Melanie

Over two hundred years ago, Jan Austen penned one of the first regency romances. Regency Romances are still a hugely popular romance micro niche over two decades later.

Regency romances are a micro niche within the Amazon categories that encompass Historical Romances.  The setting is England during the period of the British Regency (1811–1820) or early 19th century.

“The Regency in the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland was a period at the end of the Georgian era, when King George III was deemed unfit to rule due to his illness, and his son ruled as his proxy, as prince regent. Upon George III’s death in 1820, the prince regent became King George IV.

The term Regency (or Regency era) can refer to various stretches of time; some are longer than the decade of the formal Regency which lasted from 1811 to 1820. The period from 1795 to 1837, which includes the latter part of George III’s reign and the reigns of his sons George IV and William IV, is sometimes regarded as the Regency era, characterised by distinctive trends in British architecture, literature, fashions, politics, and culture. ”    -wikipedia



Traditionally these romances “feature a great deal of intelligent, fast-paced dialogue between the protagonists and very little explicit sex. -Wikipedia

As the popularity of Regency romances waxed and waned, new interest in the period has been fueled by changes in the nature of the romances … from  “romance” only (no sex) to novels set in the Regency Period with modern plotting and character building conventions to the introduction of various levels of steam and yes, shhhh-sex.

If you look at other romance micro niches such as Medieval Romances, which span TEN centuries, and  the UK, Europe and the Middle East — you can see that the 10 year span of the British Regency period is very restrictive.  In spite of that this is still a thriving micro niche with well know authors and a large and loyal audience.
