Carol Marinelli recently filled in a form asking for her job title. Thrilled to be able to put down her answer, she put writer. Then it asked what Carol did for relaxation and she put down the truth - writing. The third question asked for her hobbies. Well, not wanting to look obsessed she crossed the fingers on her hand and answered swimming but, given that the chlorine in the pool does terrible things to her highlights - I'm sure you can guess the real answer.
Louise Fuller was a tomboy who hated pink and always wanted to be the prince.
Not the princess! Now she enjoys creating heroines who aren't pretty pushovers but strong, believable women. Before writing for Mills and Boon, she studied literature and philosophy at university and then worked as a reporter on her local newspaper. She lives in Tunbridge Wells with her impossibly handsome husband, Patrick and their six children.
Rachael has loved writing stories since she was a small child, but it was the discovery of Mills and Boon as a teenager, that started her love affair with romance.
In 2013 she entered Harlequin's So You Think You Can Write competition and her entry earned her a place in the Top Ten. That entry, A Deal Before the Altar became her debut title. Rachael lives in Wales on a farm and loves exploring. Her latest adventure was in the Sahara Desert for charity - and research!
Unable to sit still without reading, Bella first found romantic fiction in her grandmother's magazines.
Occasionally stopping reading to be a barmaid, financial advisor, teacher and of course writer, her eclectic collection of wonderful friends have provided more than their fair share of inspiration for heroes, heroines and glamorous locations. Bella lives in the UK but commutes for international pleasure - strictly in the interests of research!
