Gayle Feyrer has written two historical romances for Avon under the nom de plume Taylor Chase. Heart of Deception and Heart of Night explore the turbulent world of Elizabethan England, a world of brash and bawdy manners contrasting with elaborate courtly protocol, of vice and venality contending with a questing romantic spirit. Certain characters from the two books interweave with each other, emerging to take the main role, or playing a supporting part. Under her own name, Gayle Feyrer authored two previous historical romances. A Libra with Scorpio Rising, Gayle endeavors to merge romance and passion in her novels. The Prince of Cups, her first romance, takes place in the lush and violent world of Renaissance Italy. The second, The Thief's Mistress, is set amid the earthy glamour of Robin Hood's Sherwood. These books were published by Dell, but are currently out-of-print. Gayle plans to republish all her romances on Kindle with her own cover art.Along with her book length fiction, Gayle has numerous small press publications and a fantasy story in Lonnie Barbach's collection Erotic Interludes. She has won prizes for her fiction, art, and her chocolate desserts.
