Emilie Baker Loring (September 5, 1866 - March 13, 1951) was an American romance novelist of the 20th century. She began writing in 1914 at the age of 50 and continued until her death after a long illness in 1951. After her death, her estate was managed by her sons, Selden M. and Robert M. Loring, who, based on a wealth of unfinished material they discovered, published twenty more books under her name until 1972. These books were ghost written by Elinore Denniston. The majority of Loring's books are highly romantic mysteries that focus on a young, independent woman with courage and ideals who finds herself in a tricky situation, relies on the help of a strong, handsome man and ends up with him at the end of the story. Beyond romance and mystery, her books also explore a selection of topics including marriage, love, the work ethic, American patriotism, freedom and optimism. She enjoyed painting pictures with words, often describing the environment, architecture, dress, food and physical features of characters in exacting and colorful detail. In the books published after she died, a lot of the colorful description was left out. Another major difference in the books published before and after the author's death is the characters' language, a change for the better. In a lot of the early books, too many of the characters use American slang, which sounds like it came straight from the early talkies. Loring's work features several repeating motifs; among them are a heroine in her early 20s with dark hair, a dark-haired lawyer or aspiring politician for a hero, a secondary male predisposed to speaking in quotations, a "sleek" bad guy, a wise older woman who may or may not end up with a wise older man who has long been in love with her, a flirtatious blond woman vying for the hero and New England as a setting or character trait: "New England granite". Often-used plot devices in her novels include an orphaned character, a marriage of convenience or contract, a clandestine marriage and trouble coming from outside a well-knit social structure.
