Mary Jayne Baker grew up in rural West Yorkshire, right in the heart of Bronte country. After graduating from Durham University with an English Literature degree, she dallied with living in cities, including London, but eventually returned to her beloved Dales - with her own romantic hero in tow. She now shares her home with four cats and a rabbit, writing stories about girls with flaws and the men who love them. By day, she works as a graphic designer for a magazine publisher, but secretly dreams of being a lighthouse keeper.
