Coleen Kwan has been a bookworm all her life. At school English was her favorite subject, but for some reason she decided on a career in IT. After many years of programming, she wondered what else there was in life-and discovered writing. She loves writing both contemporary romance and steampunk romance. Coleen lives in Sydney, Australia, with her partner and two children. When she isn't writing, she enjoys avoiding housework, eating chocolate, and watching The Office. She is also the author of the Real Men series, which includes Real Men Don't Break Hearts and Real Men Don't Quit.
