Rona Sharon is the author of two historical romance
novels. Her debut book MY
WICKED PIRATE (Zebra, 2006) and her forthcoming
book ONCE
A RAKE (Zebra) is set in the Regency period in
England and scheduled for release in December 2007.
Rona lives in Israel. She has traveled extensively
around the world since childhood and speaks five languages.
She has degrees in Accounting and Economics from the
University of Tel Aviv and has spent several years
working as a tax specialist for the Treasury Department
before making the decision to write fulltime.
As part of her meticulous research for her debut
book MY WICKED PIRATE, Rona took courses at the Italian
Embassy in Israel, won a scholarship from the Italian
government to continue her studies in Rome, and consequently
spent two months traveling all over Italy, immersing
herself in the country’s rich history and culture.
Rona has a passion for western history, mythology,
and literature, and prides herself on the detailed
research that goes into her novels.
“A pair
of perfectly matched protagonists, whose scorching
chemistry is the core of this sexy, swashbuckling,
wonderfully old-fashioned historical romance”— Booklist
