After a substantial and very enjoyable break from writing, I’m back. And because I like to challenge myself I’m writing two books in parallel. Both are set in Edinburgh in the 1870s, and both have a Gothic theme, but there the similarity ends. Because I’m an arch procrastinator, and one of the books has no …

Release Day for His Runaway Marchioness Returns
My latest historical romance from Mill&Boon is out today. HIS RUNAWAY MARCHIONESS RETURNS is a marriage of convenience set in the mid-Victorian period. Lily, my heroine, has been living in France forging a very unusual and slightly scandalous career for herself for most of her marriage to industrialist Oliver. Meanwhile, he has been focusing on …

What I’ve Been Reading – Review Copies
One of the benefits of being an author is that I have a stack of lovely books given to me to review, a mixture of advance copies and recently published. So for the past few weeks I’ve given myself over to indulgent reading (sorry, I mean work, it’s work I tell you!) and steered away …
What I’ve Been Reading – Agatha Christie
When I was growing up the concept of Young Adult fiction did not exist (nor did Young Adults, as an actual thing!), so I progressed straight from Enid Blyton to whatever my mum was reading, which included (thankfully for my future career) Georgette Heyer, Barbara Cartland (something she still denies), Mary Stewart and crime of …

Countdown to Release Day

Oliver and Lily have been married for ten years and lived apart for all of them. Oliver, a self-made man, has …
The Armstrong Family Tree – And All the Offshoots
UNDER THE MISTLETOE is my latest Christmas duet with Bronwyn Scott (and it’s out now, in case you didn’t know). When we first started talking about it, we both had ‘stray’ characters from other series whose story we wanted to tell. Bronwyn’s story, Doctor Peverett’s Christmas Miracle is the last in her Peverett’s of Haverstock …

Snippets from a Writer’s Life
It’s a cliché because it’s true, the older you get, the faster life whirls you by, and since the pandemic changed the world, I feel like we are travelling at warp speed. I had barely touched down from my fabulous trip to Barcelona with my mum and sisters, and I was off on another trip …
