Because your heart matters
I write feel-good fiction because your heart matters.
It does. Yet so often we put our hearts last!
Fresh from an inspiring gathering of some 400 Australian romance writers in Glenelg, South Australia, I’ve sharpened my pencil and my craft, and will shortly release Sunset Beach!
Elana Johnson and Amber Jakeman (see more conference pics at end, including creative ‘Trope Actually’ costumes)Enjoy these quotes from the writers’ conference from US best-selling authors in my genre:
“We write stories of resilience, redemption and the transformative power of love, and remind readers that love is a force that can conquer all.” Elana Johnson
Events (bring a friend!)“Romance can influence how we treat each other … It’s about connection and community.” Christina Lauren (writing buddies Christina Hobbs and Lauren Billings)
If you’re anywhere nearby, do come and meet me with Liz Foster at a Sutherland Shire Council Library “Feel-good books for women” author talk on Monday 16 September at 6.30pm (30-36 Belmont St, Sutherland, Sydney, NSW, Australia)! We’ll chat books, writing and so much more. BYO questions!
I’d also love to see you at a North Shore Book Affair at 1 Pottery Lane, Lane Cove, NSW, Australia, on Saturday 28 September from 10am to 1pm. It’s just $5 to enter and there’ll be giveaways. Please book here.
And at the Australian Romance Readers Association Romantic Rendezvous in Brisbane, Queensland, Australia, on Saturday 22 March 2025!
In the meantime, I send my gratitude to each and every VIP, including new readers who visited Leanne Lovegrove and me at the signing in Glenelg.

Rescued by my Brother’s Best Friend, by Abby Greyson
“My brother’s best friend and my new next-door neighbor,” Abby writes.
“Lane Kincaid was my secret crush for as long as I can remember. He’s also the one I had every intention of avoiding when I came home.
“But fate had different plans, and he’s the first person to come to my rescue…
“Now, I’m being rescued by my brother’s best friend in more ways than I ever dared to dream.”
