While in London, we decided to take a water taxi ride down the Thames, but ended up a little lost on the wrong side of the river and wandering through the alleys of Southwark. The following year I received a tax refund so the family headed to England for a much-needed break. With the financial pressure of running a business in a broke city, my business hit a bit of a slump, which in turn meant I overpaid some tax. What inspired you to write your first book?įunny story really, which again reverts back to the earthquakes. Yet it still doesn’t seem real and probably won’t for a very long time. When did you first consider yourself a writer? It’s fair to say, I am an accidental author. Months later when my eyes had well and truly been opened to a whole wide world I never knew existed, the same woman mentioned that she’d quite like to get into proof reading, so I decided to write her something. When I’d exhausted all the authors I knew, I went in search of more and it was then that I made a new friend who gave me my first erotic novel. At the time I needed a distraction from the environment I was living in, so I read, a lot. My journey into the wonderful world of writing began with an earthquake and was followed by thousands of aftershocks. They’ve been waiting for this one, and asking, so it’s an absolute pleasure to be finally putting pen to paper and capturing itįor none of the reasons you may think. Indy and Trey’s story has been very quietly simmering in the background through all three previous novels with just enough to keep the reader guessing. With the conclusion of book three ‘To Catch A Flame’, PJ’s story ended, and India, her best friend’s began. My current work is a continuation of ‘The Red Series’.

But my main passion is writing and reading.

I love exercise and have tried most things from martial arts to body building. It gives me the freedom to be creative and the satisfaction of knowing that I am making woman feel more confident with themselves and their bodies. I’m a clothing designer by trade and have worked in the industry for seventeen years, specialising in custom made woman’s wear.

I’ve been happily married for 16 years to an incredible man and I have two gorgeous children, a son and a daughter, and a dog.
