Roxie Cooper is that person at coffee shops who listens to your conversations and, by the time you leave, has created an entire novel out of your life. The author of two contemporary romances, she studied the classics at university and spent time traveling and working as a dancer and a criminal barrister before penning her debut. Born and raised in Middlesbrough, she whiles away her time in the pretty little town of Yarm, listening to Prince and wishing she were Buffy the Vampire Slayer.
