Author A to Z

Sophie writes contemporary romance for Harlequin Mills & Boon.  At the last count she was published in 26 languages – and manga!

A lifelong writer, her first book was published after a bout of mystery illness kicked her into submitting a mss to an agent. She loves the unequivocal happy ending that you are allowed in HMB but her characters have to fight their way through the difficulties of very twenty-first century relationships to get there, like the workaholic international negotiator hero of The Englishman’s Bride.

She travels widely and lives in London.

A former Chairman of the RNA, under her real name Jenny Haddon, she is currently Treasurer. 

Her Bedroom Assignment was short listed for the Love Story of the Year.
 

It's a fact

Pamela, or Virtue Rewarded, by Samuel Richardson, published in 1740, is generally considered the first romance novel.
