I can't remember a time when I wasn't writing stories, and it has always been my ambition to be a published author. I write contemporary romance because that is what I most like reading. I've worked in a variety of day jobs from stable girl to legal administrator. I've also had a very enjoyable vicarious career as a stage mother, which has given me a love of the theatre that inspires a lot of my writing. I love travelling, and i'm also inspired to write by the many wonderful foreign cities that I've visited and explored - with a camera and a writer's notebook in hand - and my first novel, 'French Kissing' is set partly in Paris. I live in North London with my tall, dark handsome husband, my son, two daughters and a lot of books. A Stage Kiss is my second novel.
