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!
Annie has devoted her life to an intensive study of charismatic heroes who cause the best kind of trouble in the lives of their heroines.
As a sideline she researches locations for romance, from vibrant cities to desert encampments and fairytale castles. Annie lives in eastern Australia with her hero husband, between sandy beaches and gorgeous wine country. She finds writing the perfect excuse to postpone housework.
