Emily Madden
I am a book nerd, coffee lover and love anything 80’s (except the fashion, okay, I admit – I like some of it).
Buy books on Amazon
My love of books started at a young age when I would often go shopping with my mum just so I could score yet another novel. Nothing has changed – I rarely leave a bookstore without a book.
I read anything and everything, but stories that touch the heart and uplift the soul are what I love the most.
I have an unnatural obsession with needing to be close to the ocean, but am terrified of deep water. -

Writing romance sounds fascinating. Huh?
Buy books on Amazon
I'm a writer. I'm boring. Day after day I sit behind a word processor making up people in my head. Why do I do it? I love it. My husband, Dave, gets up in the morning, puts on a suit and heads out into the ice and cold of Ballarat's winter. (Sadly I live in one of the tiny parts of Australia that qualifies as cold.) I make myself another cup of coffee, head up to my study, choose what music I want and sit and daydream. And I get paid for doing it. Hooray!
My first attempt at writing romance, 'Dare To Love Again', a Medical Romance, was published by Harlequin Mills and Boon in 1990. It still stands today as a monument to my family's ability to survive on cheese sandwiches and spaghetti.
Since then I've w -
