About Carol
I am the Amazon Charts and Kindle Store #1 bestselling author of contemporary women's fiction. I write the kind of stories that I enjoy reading - novels that reflect the real life of strong women, both its challenges and its triumphs, stories we can all relate to and perhaps even see ourselves in. I read to be entertained but I also love a novel that makes me think about life, love, friendship, my place in the world and in the lives of others. So I hope that's what I give you as a writer - laughs, possibly some tears, and something to think about once the last page is turned.
​
I grew up in northern England (Sunderland), but took off to London when I was 19. I worked for a short time at the Foreign Office where I came to the realisation that I might not know what I wanted to do with my life, but I knew what I didn't! So I went on a little travel adventure to Canada and surprised myself by meeting the man I would eventually marry. I did my degree in Toronto, in Radio and Television Arts, and that pretty much decided things for me - I wanted to be a writer.
​
My books have sold close to a million copies, and while writing can be a frustrating career choice at times, I still can't believe I get to do it for a living! Writing is everything to me. I do not know who I would be without it.
​
My husband and I live near Vancouver , BC. We also have a place in Santa Monica, California, which I consider the most perfect place on the earth. England is still my home though, and always will be.
If you want to know more about me, a good idea is to follow me on Facebook or Instagram. I don't always love social media but I do love the fact that I've made some lovely friends there. Hope to see you over there - and maybe you can become one of them.

If you have ever read a novel of mine and enjoyed it enough to read another, or leave a review of it, or if you have recommended it to a friend then THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart!
