Brenda is a displaced New Yorker living in the English countryside. She's lived in the UK long enough to gain dual citizenship, but still doesn't understand Celsius. However, she has learned the appropriate use of the word "pants". And how to order a proper bacon bap/barm/buttie. Because, well, bacon.

Brenda writes contemporary romance to make you giggle and swoon. When she's not writing, she enjoys hiking, running and reading. In theory, she also enjoys cooking, but it's more that she enjoys eating and, try as she might, she can't live on Doritos alone.
