Today’s featured Beau Monde author is
Andrea K. Stein!

Andrea K. Stein, the daughter of a trucker and an artist, never knew it would take the hard-work ethic of her father to achieve the light-filled magic of her mother’s art. After helping raise a combined family equaling the Brady bunch without Alice, she retired early from a 30-year career as a newspaper and publishing professional and fled to the mountains. She interspersed a seven-year stint as a Colorado ski patroller with nautical adventures with a crusty, old British delivery captain, accumulating some 20,000 miles at sea. While delivering yachts up and down the Caribbean, she also earned a USCG offshore captain’s license. Now, she tells award-winning tales of the high seas from her writing room in Colorado. She has nine romance novels self-published on Amazon since 2014.

What do you love best/interests you most about the Regency Era?

Andrea says, “My current series, Men of the Squadron, focuses on the sailors and officers who served with the Royal Navy’s West African Preventative Squadron. In 1807, Parliament gave them the nearly impossible task of eradicating slavery on the high seas. It took them nearly a century, but in that time, they liberated at least 150,000 documented Africans and lost 17,000 of their own men.”

What do you like the most about The Beau Monde? How long have you been a member?

Andrea says, “I love the wonderful, supportive members of The Beau Monde who are there, night or day (really) if you have a question, or need support on our fabulous discussion forum. They are also always ready to help me promote my latest book out on social media. And then there is our superb Academe, the like of which is nowhere else on the internet. The classes are quite simply the best for our genre. I think I’ve been a member for four or five years now, ever since Regency maven and expert Louisa Cornell so kindly took me under her wing.”
