We never get to choose what we’re known for, but if I have any say, it would be that I create stories that are immersive and authentic. And I’ve come from South Carolina to do that for my latest book.”
— Nadine Theiss

HUTTON RUDBY, NORTH YORKSHIRE, UNITED KINGDOM, July 29, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- International romance author Nadine Theiss has crossed the Atlantic for a deeply personal mission: to bring authenticity and atmosphere to the final pages of her upcoming novel, Boiling Point—a story that unfolds, in part, within the walls of a storied English country estate.

To capture that setting with truth and texture, Theiss booked a stay at Rudby Hall, a Grade II* listed historic home in North Yorkshire that has recently reopened as a boutique hotel. The house, originally built in 1838 for the youngest daughter of King William IV, has been lovingly revitalised by new owners Mark Booth and Suze Chomo, who aim to position it as a cultural retreat and creative haven.

“We never get to choose what we’re known for,” Theiss said. “But if I have any say, it would be that I create stories that are immersive and authentic. And I’ve come all the way from South Carolina to do that for my latest book.”

From long walks on the estate’s sweeping grounds to writing sessions in the grand lounge—complete with a secret door—Theiss has been soaking up the atmosphere and architectural detail that define Boiling Point’s fictional world.

“We’ve hosted American guests before,” said co-owner Mark Booth, “but never one that got on a plane specifically to come here.”

Boiling Point is set to release in late autumn 2025 and tells the story of a forbidden romance between a British professor and his American student, weaving together academic politics, moral tension, and cultural contrasts. The novel explores the pressure of public scrutiny and the private intensity of relationships that cross boundaries—national, academic, and personal.

Rudby Hall, with its rich royal history and bespoke hospitality, offered the perfect setting for Theiss’s creative process. Since its reopening in January 2025, the boutique hotel has welcomed guests seeking tranquillity, inspiration, and a connection to English heritage—values Theiss says resonate deeply with her as a writer.
