I write epic historical love stories that stir the soul, transporting readers into the secrets and conflicts of World War Two.

Across dual timelines, each novel unfolds with heart, courage, and emotional depth, creating an immersive journey into the past and a passion that lingers long after the final page.
If you've ever held a treasured object in your hand or stood in a place steeped in history, you'll understand the pull of the past. It's as if voices from long ago whisper through time, their secrets waiting to be uncovered.
As a writer of dual timeline novels, I’m fascinated by the interplay between past and present: how a forgotten item or an old building can open a doorway to another era, connecting lives across time.

Her introduction to the river came in 1940 when she arrived as the bride of Ron Anderson, manager of Mt Algidus Station.
She had been looking after an aunt on the West Coast of the South Island, when an old swaggie nicknamed John the Baptist called in for his regular cup of tea. He was taken with the young woman and surprised that she wasn't married.
"I know of a man who needs a wife," he said, and gave her Ron Anderson's address.
She first wrote to him as a joke, but when he replied she was impressed and the correspondence flourished. They met, fell in love and married.
