Regencies are British-set stories set during the time when the Prince Regent was in charge of running the country, but they all have certain attributes. Author Vanessa Riley, whose novel we recently featured, has a great blog that explains all things Regency.

Through books I can get a glimpse of that time. In a sense, I wish that I could have been part of that world. It is so different from my life and would have been an adventure to be a apart of. Also, I love horses, so it is almost guaranteed that my family would have had horses during that time. I would have loved being able to ride around everywhere.Elisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11903898678551122096noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8713519582170578996.post-32740043243798921682016-07-09T11:49:56.917-04:002016-07-09T11:49:56.917-04:00I love reading Regency Christian fiction!
