Beverley Oakley is an Australian author of more than 30 Regency romps, and Victorian and Georgian-set romances laced with mystery and intrigue.

Under her other pen names - Beverley Eikli and B.G. Nettelton - she writes Africa-set romantic suspense and Women’s Fiction.

Born in the African mountain kingdom of Lesotho, Beverley married the handsome Norwegian bush pilot she met in Botswana’s beautiful Okavango Delta while managing a safari lodge.

She began her writing career as a journalist, but it was during long aerial survey contracts around the world—often as the sole woman among the crew—that she began to write romance novels, finding in them an escape from the isolation.

Beverley lives just north of Melbourne with the same wonderful husband she whisked away from Botswana thirty years ago, together with their youngest daughter (the oldest lives in Norway), and a gorgeous, dopey Rhodesian Ridgeback who weighs more than she does.

When she’s not writing, she runs a bed & breakfast & Farmstay business (called Wuthering Heights) in South Australia’s beautiful wine growing Clare Valley with her two sisters, and teaches Writing.
