Anne Mallory is an American author of historical romance novels. Her books blend romance and mystery. Her name is a pseudonym.[1]
Mallory submitted her first manuscript, Masquerading the Marquess, for consideration for the 2003 Romance Writers of America Golden Heart Award, given to a previously unpublished author. The book was a finalist in the competition and caught the attention of one of the judges, an editor from Avon. The editor purchased the book, which was released in October 2004.[1] This debut novel was later nominated for a Romantic Times Reviewers' Choice Award for Best First Historical Romance.[2]
Her style of writing has been likened to that of Amanda Quick, blending mystery and romances in a Regency setting. Romantic Times described her first novel as "lively, exciting, cleverly plotted" with an "independent, intelligent heroine and equally smart hero."[3]
Born in Michigan, Mallory now lives in California.
As of January 2013, the author went on hiatus from historical romance in order to write in a different genre under a different name.[4]
