Sophie Pembroke writes very British women’s fiction novels for Orion, Avon and HQ, and short romances for Mills & Boon / Harlequin Romance. She has been dreaming, reading and writing romance ever since she read her first Mills & Boon as part of her English Literature degree at Lancaster University, so getting to write romantic fiction for a living really is a dream come true!

She lives in a little English market town with her scientist husband and their two children. She spends her days writing, drinking tea and curling up with a good book. (Oh, and planning. There is a lot of planning.)

In Sophie’s world, happy is for ever after, everything stops for tea, and there’s always time for just one more page…

Sophie also writes for teens and children as Katy Cannon, and has recently branched out into cosy crime under her real name, Katy Watson.
