Nicola Jordan is a successful American author, well-known for her historical romance novels. She was born in Oklahoma in 1954 and spent her childhood as an Army brat, moving around a lot and attending high school in Germany. These early experiences gave her a rich background of diverse cultures and landscapes, which she would later draw upon in her writing.
After high school, Jordan attended Georgia Tech, where she earned a degree in civil engineering. She then spent eight years working in manufacturing, a career that further honed her skills in project management and attention to detail. These skills would prove invaluable in the rigorous process of writing and publishing her novels.

Her novels have since appeared on numerous bestseller lists, including The New York Times, Publishers Weekly, and USA Today.

In addition to her writing, Jordan is also an avid horse lover and enjoys riding in the beautiful Rocky Mountains of Utah, where she currently resides with her husband and horses. With over two-dozen historical romances to her credit and four million books in print, Jordan continues to delight her readers with her sparkling tales of Regency lovers playing the matrimonial mating game.
