Because, yes, I'm also an eternal optimist!I live in beautiful New Zealand, just north of Wellington in a small village by the sea. It's here, in a sunny window seat overlooking the hills and trees, that I write my books.Wherever you are in the world, welcome to my little corner, where I sit with my two cocker spaniels snoring gently beside me, creating worlds where people struggle with life and emotions but are always rewarded with love and happiness in the end. Because that's non negotiable! Italy... the land of romance. From Milan and the Italian lakes in the north, through Tuscany down to Naples, one thing remains constant-the beauty of the land and the passion of its people. Lose yourself in Italian romance...
